Alfa Romeo GIULIA Giulia 2018-2022 Speed Offset Warning Car Owner Manuals

Speed Offset Warning

Warning: Selecting "Speed Offset" allows you to set the speed increment for the ISC system up to 6 mph (10 km/h) above the speed limit detected, or a decrement down to 6 mph (10 km/h) below. The road sign information shown on the instrument panel will remain as detected by the TSR system.

Indications on the Display

The system status is always shown by a dedicated white or green icon / / on the instrument panel display, similar to the Active Cruise Control device, to the left of the road sign indications provided by the TSR system.

Acceptance / Rejection of Suggested Speed

The system can be activated if the driver has previously activated:

• The Active Cruise Control device
• The Traffic Sign Recognition system

The instrument panel can show an icon indicating the suggested speed provided by the TSR system (Fig. 200–201). The driver can accept or reject it using the RES/SET lever:

• Move lever in the direction of the green arrow → Accept speed and adjust Active Cruise Control accordingly.
• Move lever opposite the arrow → Reject speed; Active Cruise Control maintains previously set speed.

If the driver accepts the ISC suggestion or the ACC speed matches the TSR-detected speed, the speed limit sign on the display is highlighted with a green circle.

Park Sensors System

Versions with 4 sensors: Located in the rear bumper (Fig. 203), they detect obstacles and warn the driver via acoustic and visual signals.

On/Off

Press the button (Fig. 204) to toggle the system. LED indicates on/off status. If pressed during system failure, LED flashes for ~5 seconds then stays on.

Activation/Deactivation

System automatically activates when reverse gear engaged, and deactivates with other gears.

Acoustic Signal

• Frequency increases as vehicle approaches obstacle
• Becomes continuous if distance < 12 in (30 cm)
• Stops if distance increases
• Constant if distance unchanged

Only nearest obstacle is considered. No signal in P or N gear.

Display Indications

Displayed on Connect system menu: Settings → Driver Assistance → Parking Sensors → Mode → Sound and Display. Arcs indicate obstacle distance and position. Central area: constant then flashing arc + acoustic signal. Left/right area: flashing arc + acoustic signal. Multiple obstacles: all shown. Arc color depends on distance. Rotary Pad exits display, but sound remains active.

Fault Indication

Faults indicated on instrument panel. Messages displayed for ~5 seconds. Clean sensors if prompted (remove dirt, snow, mud, ice). Repeat ignition check after cleaning. Contact Alfa Romeo Dealership if messages persist.

Operation with Trailer

Sensors deactivate automatically when trailer plug inserted; reactivated when removed. Front sensors remain active.

Important Notes

• Objects above or under sensors may not be detected.
• Performance influenced by ice, snow, mud, thick paint on sensor surface.
• Echo interference possible due to mechanical/ultrasonic interference.
• Sensor position changes due to suspension, tyres, overload, tuning can affect performance.
• Tow hook without trailer may be detected as obstacle; remove if not towing.
• Adhesives/stickers on sensors reduce performance.

Versions with 8 Sensors

Front (Fig. 205) and rear (Fig. 206) sensors detect obstacles, provide acoustic and visual warnings.

Front Sensors On/Off

Press button (Fig. 207) to toggle. LED indicates status: off → sensors on; on → sensors off.

Front & Rear Sensors On/Off

Can also toggle via Connect system: Driver
