BLIND SPOT WARNING (1/5)

1

A

This function is an addi-

tional aid which indicates

other vehicles in the blind

spot area.

This system alerts the driver to other

vehicles in the detection zone A.

Special feature

Make sure that the sensors are not ob-

scured (by dirt, mud, snow, etc.).

It can never in any case be a sub-

stitute for care nor for the driver’s

responsibility while in charge of his

vehicle.

The system is activated when the ve-

hicle’s speed is between approximately

19 mph (30 km/h) and 87 mph

(140 km/h).

If a sensor is obscured, the message

“Blind spotclean sensor” will appear on

the instrument panel. Clean the sen-

sors.

The driver should always be ready

for sudden incidents while driv-

ing: always ensure that there are

no moving obstacles (such as a

child, animal, pushchair or bicy-

cle) or small, narrow objects such

as stones or posts in the blind spot

when manoeuvring.

This function uses sensors 1 installed in

the front and rear bumper of both sides.

Activation/deactivation

Indicator 3

Operation

Vehicle stationary, engine running, from

the multimedia screen 2, select the

“Settings” menu, “Vehicle” tab, select

the “Driving assistance” menu, “Blind

spot alert”, then select ON or OFF.

An indicator light 3 is located on each

rear view mirror 4.

This function gives a warning:

– when the vehicle speed is between

approximately 19 mph (30 km/h) and

87 mph (140 km/h);

– when another vehicle is in the blind

spot area and travelling in the same

direction as your vehicle.

Note: clean the rear view mirrors 4 reg-

ularly so that the indicators 3 can be

seen.

If another vehicle is being overtaken,

the indicator 3 will be activated only if

that vehicle remains in the blind spot for

more than one second.

The system’s detection range oper-

ates according to a standard lane

width. If you are driving in narrow

traffic lanes, it may detect vehicles

in other lanes.

played on the instrument panel. Call an

approved Dealer.

Display C

First warning: the indicator 3 means

that a vehicle has been detected in the

blind spot.

Display D

When the direction indicator is acti-

vated, the indicator light 3 flashes when

a vehicle is detected in the blind spot on

the side towards which you are about to

steer. If you cancel the direction indica-

tor, the function will return to the initial

warning (display C).

The system’s detection

range operates according

to a standard lane width. If

you are driving in wide traf-

fic lanes, the system might not be

able to detect a vehicle in the blind

spot.

Conditions for non-function

– If the object is not moving;

– if traffic is heavy;

– the road is winding;

– if front and rear sensors both detect

an object at the same time (e.g.

when passing an articulated lorry).

The system might be disrupted mo-

mentarily if it is exposed to strong

electromagnetic waves (as beneath

high-tension power lines) or to very

poor weather conditions (heavy

rain, snow etc.). Remain aware of

driving conditions.

– ...

Because sensors have

been installed in the bump-

ers, any work (repairs, re-

placements, touching up of

paintwork) must be carried out by a

qualified professional.

There is a risk of accidents.

2.46

BLIND SPOT WARNING (4/5)

This function is an additional driving aid. This function is not under any circumstances intended to replace the due care

and attention of the driver, who should at all times be in control of the vehicle.

The driver should always adapt their speed to the traffic conditions, regardless of the system indications.

The system should under no circumstances be taken to be an obstacle detector or an anti-collision system.

System servicing/repairs

– In the event of an impact, the alignment of the sensors may be changed and its operation may consequently be affected.

Deactivate the function and consult an authorised dealer.

– Any work in the area where the sensors are located (repairs, replacements, etc.) must be carried out by a qualified profes-

sional.

Only an authorised dealer is qualified to service the system.

System disturbance

Some conditions can disturb or damage the operation of the system, such as:

– complex surroundings (metal bridges, tunnels, roads with barriers at the edge, etc.);

– poor weather conditions (snow, hail, black ice, etc.).

Risk of false alarms or absence of warnings

In the event of the system behaving abnormally, deactivate it and consult an authorised dealer.

2.47

BLIND SPOT WARNING (5/5)

Limitation of the system operation

– The sensors must be kept clean and free of modifications in order for the system to operate correctly.

– Small objects moving close to the vehicle (motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians, etc.) may not be recognised by the

system.

– When the vehicle enters corners and curves, the system may temporarily cease to detect vehicles in adjacent lanes.

– The system may not react when there is a significant difference in speed with other vehicles.

– If the vehicle is being overtaken by a long vehicle (e.g. heavy goods vehicle overtaking at a similar speed to the vehicle) the

system may interrupt the warning before the end of the manoeuvre.

– The vehicle is travelling on a winding road.

Deactivating the function

You must disable the function if the sensors have been damaged (rear bumper).
