Harman Becker Automotive Systems BE2810 User Manual

The vehicle symbol and sensor detection zones appear on the TFT display: these zones indicate which part of the vehicle is approaching an obstacle (if front or rear and if left, right or central) and the distance from the obstacle (maximum, medium or minimum).

If an obstacle is detected at maximum distance in the central front part, it will be displayed as shown below (green).

If an obstacle is detected at medium distance in the central front part, it will be displayed as shown below (orange).

If an obstacle is detected at minimum distance in the central front part, it will be displayed as shown below (red).

About your Vehicle

If the front sensors are deactivated or not present, the display does not show the symbols in the front. In the same way, if front sensors are ﬁtted and the rear ones are not activated, the display only shows the symbols in the front. If all the sensors are activated, the system can give several pieces of information at the same time: if an obstacle is detected at a maximum distance in the front central part and at a minimum distance in the rear right part, it will be displayed as shown below.

If the parking sensor system symbols are being displayed and an event occurs that needs to be displayed as an icon and/or special message, the symbol is moved from the centre of the display to the right as shown below.

Important note

If there is a higher priority failure such as a tyre puncture, the TFT display will indicate this failure and the parking sensor symbols will disappear.

Once the failure has been displayed, the parking sensor symbols will go back to the centre of the display.

Simultaneous display of parking sensors and other systems

If other systems are activated when the parking sensors are being displayed, the TFT display displays the sensors on the right of the screen and the other active system on the left.

If the hard top is operated, the parking sensor display is deactivated as the sensors will be detecting obstacles that may damage the luggage compartment.

Cleaning the sensors

When cleaning the sensors, be very careful not to scratch or damage them and avoid using dry, rough or hard cloths.

The sensors must be washed with clean water and car shampoo added if necessary.

In car washes that use steam jet or high pressure water cleaning equipment, quickly clean the sensors keeping the nozzle at a distance of over 10 cm.

For the repainting of bumpers or retouching the paintwork in the sensor area, contact the Ferrari Service Network. If paint is applied incorrectly, it may jeopardise proper operation of the parking sensors.

Sensing range

The sensors allow the system to control the rear and front of the vehicle: their position covers the central and side areas of the vehicle.

If an obstacle is in the central area, it is detected at distances of approximately 1.40 m depending on the type of obstacle and its size.

If an obstacle is in the side area, it is detected at distances of less than 0.8 m.

Failure signals

The system ECU checks all the components each time the reverse gear is engaged.

A parking sensor system failure is indicated on the TFT display.

If there is a failure signal, stop the vehicle and turn the ignition key to position 0 (Stop). Then try and clean the sensors or move them away from any sources of ultrasound emissions (e.g. pneumatic brakes of lorries or pneumatic drills) and turn the ignition key to position II again. In this way, if the cause of malfunctioning has been corrected, the system will start operating correctly again and the failure buzzer will stop.

If the failure buzzer continues, contact the Ferrari Service Network to have the system checked.

144

About your Vehicle

Important note

Obstacles that may damage the luggage compartment (obstacles at distances of less than 400 mm, see page 123) are detected only once by the rear sensors prior to hydraulic operation of the hard top. Any obstacles that appear after hard top activation will not be detected.

Important note

The signals sent by the sensors may also be affected by damage to the sensors caused by dirt, snow or ice on the sensors or by ultrasound systems (e.g.. pneumatic brakes on lorries or pneumatic drills) in the vicinity.

Important note

The sensors are able to detect obstacles with reasonably large, even surfaces (e.g.: poles with diameters of over 60 mm, walls, barriers, trees). Detection is not optimum with obstacles with sharp projections or uneven surfaces.

Important note

When parking and operating the retractable hard top, always be very careful to avoid obstacles that may be above or below the sensors.

Important note

Objects placed close to the rear part of the vehicle are not always detected by the system and may therefore damage the vehicle or be damaged themselves.

Warning

However, the driver has full responsibility for parking manoeuvres and in other potentially dangerous situations. The system has been designed only as an aid during parking manoeuvres and the operation of the retractable hard top, since it detects obstacles that are outside the driver's range of visibility.

The sensors are therefore not a substitute for the driver's care and attention when parking and checking for the presence of persons or objects.

Fault display

Fault visualisation logic

When a fault occurs, the corresponding warning light (if present) comes on on the panel whereas a description of the fault (if available) and the relevant symbol (if available) are displayed on the left TFT display. The message appears on the display as soon as the warning light (if present) comes on and the main screen page that is displayed at that time is reduced.

The fault remains on the display for 20 seconds. When the display cycle ends, if the fault does not have a special warning light on the panel, the symbol remains minimised in area page 131) until the cause of malfunctioning has been resolved. In area B the main screen page is displayed in “maximum” size.

Fault priority levels

The simultaneous display of several faults follows a logic that depends on the priority level assigned to it.

Priority level 0 - Extremely critical fault.

Priority level 1 - Critical fault.

Priority level 2 - Non-critical fault.

When several fault events occur at the same time, faults with priority level 0 are displayed ﬁrst, followed by priority level 1 and then priority level 2. The information on the various faults is displayed in turn for 5 seconds each. In any case, the total display time for each fault is never less than 20 seconds.

If a fault message with priority level 1 or 2 is being displayed, and a new anomaly with the same priority level occurs, the last fault message is only displayed after the ﬁrst fault message has been displayed for at least 2 seconds. If, on the other hand, another new priority level 0 fault occurs, this is displayed immediately.

Indication of failure of turn indicators and running lights

A failure of the running lights (front and/or rear) and turn indicators (front and/or rear) is indicated in the same way as other faults but the vehicle symbol with the faulty running light or turn indicator indicated in red is displayed together with a description of the failure instead of the “External lights failure” symbol (see page 149). When the display cycle ends or the OK button with “ESCAPE” function has been pressed, the “External lights failure” symbol is minimised.

Warning

Do not start the windscreen washer during the cold months until the windscreen has warmed up. If it has not warmed up, the ﬂuid could freeze on the glass and block the view.

Headlight washer

The headlight washer is activated automatically when the windscreen washer is operated and the low beams are on. The headlight washer and windscreen washer share the same ﬂuid tank and a low ﬂuid level is indicated by the relative symbol on the left TFT display.

Important note

The rain sensor function is deactivated by turning the ignition key to position 0 and leaving the windscreen wiper in position AUTO. To reactivate the system at the next key-on, set the wipers to AUTO by quickly pressing the lever A towards the dashboard.

Warning

Before cleaning the front windscreen (for example in service stations) make sure the rain sensor is deactivated or that the key is in position 0. The rain sensor must be deactivated also when washing the vehicle by hand or in automatic car washes.

In case of ice or snow on the front windscreen, do not activate the rain sensor to avoid damaging the wiper motor and/or blades.

Rain sensor

The rain sensor automatically adjusts the windscreen wiper timing to the intensity of the rain. The system is activated by moving the windscreen wiper to AUTO.

When operating automatically, the wiper speed ranges from a minimum intermittent setting (one wipe every 5 seconds approx.) when the windscreen is damp to fast continuous operation in heavy rain.

About your Vehicle

Rain sensor failure

If there is a rain sensor failure, indicated by a special symbol on the left TFT display (see page 151) while the windscreen wiper is set to AUTO, the wipers will be set to intermittent operation with one wipe every 1 second approximately. If this is the case, we recommend that you deactivate the rain sensor and turn on the wipers, if necessary, in continuous mode.

Important note

If this occurs, contact the Ferrari Service Network as soon as possible.

Cruise control

The Cruise Control is an electronic device designed to help the driver drive at a constant speed of over 50 km/h without having to keep the accelerator pedal pressed.

Important note

We recommend only using the device on long, dry stretches of road requiring few gear changes (e.g. motorways).

Do not use the device for city driving.

Important note

PIT SPEED is a term taken from the motor sports world used by

Ferrari to indicate the speed memorised using the device and does not endorse inappropriate behaviour on the road which does not comply with Trafﬁc Regulations.

Activating the device

To activate the device, hold down control A for at least 2 seconds. When the system is activated, a warning lamp lights on the

instrument panel (see page 149), and the message “Cruise Control ON”, together with the speciﬁc symbol, are shown for 5 seconds on the left hand TFT display.

The device cannot be activated when reverse or 1 engaged.

When going down slopes with the device on, the vehicle speed may be slightly higher than the memorised speed.

Memorising the speed

Proceed as follows:

with the device activated, bring the vehicle to the desired speed

by pressing the accelerator pedal;

- turn control release it: the speed of the vehicle is memorised and you can release the accelerator pedal.

If necessary, you can accelerate by pressing the accelerator pedal: when the pedal is released, the vehicle will return to the previously memorised speed.

Resetting the memorised speed

If the device has been turned off by pressing the brake pedal, the memorised speed can be reset as follows:

- gradually accelerate until the vehicle reaches a speed which is close to the memorised speed;

- quickly press control

Increasing the memorised speed

This can be done in two ways: by pressing the accelerator and memorising the new speed reached or by turning control clockwise (+).

One turn of the control corresponds to an increase in speed of about 2 km/h; if the control is kept turned on the other hand, the speed continually increases.

Reducing the memorised speed

This can be done in two ways: by deactivating the device and then memorising the new speed or by turning control counterclockwise (-).

One turn of the control corresponds to a decrease in speed of about 2 km/h; if the control is kept turned on the other hand, the speed continually decreases.

Deactivating the device

Hold down control key to position 0. The device is also automatically deactivated by pressing the brake pedal.

When it is deactivated, the warning light on the instrument panel goes out and a “Cruise Control OFF” message accompanied by a special symbol appears on the left TFT display for 5 seconds.

Starting and driving the vehicle

System start-up

After turning the ignition key to position II (key-on), the TFT display is activated on the instrument panel and system diagnosis is performed. During diagnosis, which lasts 5 seconds, a check is performed on the warning lights on the panel and the presence of any faults is checked.

If diagnosis detects any errors, they are only displayed once the 5 seconds required for the check have elapsed. The cases listed below are an exception and errors are displayed as soon as the key is turned to on, even during diagnosis:

- Low engine oil pressure (see page 148).

- Inertia switch triggered (see page 148).

- Semi-automatic gearbox safety warnings.

- Deactivation of EPB warning (see page 183).

If the next scheduled maintenance deadline is approaching, each time the key is turned to on, information on scheduled maintenance is automatically displayed after diagnosis. For further information, refer to the “Maintenance Schedule” paragraph on page 252.

Finally, each time the key is turned to on, the message for activation of the alarm when an intrusion has been attempted (see page 19) is also displayed (after diagnosis).

Once the system check has been completed, the gearbox display is activated and the letter “P” (Parking) or “N” (Neutral) will be displayed.

Important note

BEFORE YOU DRIVE

If the warning light A does not turn off after diagnosis, indicating a fault in the gearbox (which is also indicated by the symbol and speciﬁc message on the TFT display - see page 152), contact the Ferrari Service Network.

Warning

If the UP and DOWN paddles are not working, the message “Depress brake pedal and press LAUNCH to engage gear” will appear on the TFT display; you can therefore engage the gear by pressing the LAUNCH button on the centre console (see page 180) and the brake pedal.

In these cases, the “Launch Control” function is not available. If the engaged gear was R, the LAUNCH button must be pressed

twice to engage 1

gear.

Important note

When reverse is selected, an acoustic safety signal beeps intermittently as long as “R” is engaged.

If the system automatically selects 2 shift from R to 1st gear, this indicates that 1st gear has jammed. Therefore, this is not a malfunction, as it falls within the system operating logic. For the same reason, when shifting from 1 to “R”, the system will automatically engage “N” if the gear has jammed.

During prolonged stops with the engine running, it is advisable to keep the gearshift in “N”.

gear when attempting to

gear

Important note

If you allow the vehicle to move forward in N, when UP or DOWN is requested, a gear will be engaged that corresponds to the speed of the vehicle.

UP-shifting

Operate the right-hand UP paddle without releasing the accelerator pedal.

An UP-shift request is not accepted when engagement of the requested gear forces the engine to underrev or if an UP-shift is already in progress because of engine overrevving.

Gearshifting will be much quicker if the request is made with the accelerator pedal pushed right down and the engine at over 5,500 rpm.

In any event, it is advisable to:

sShift gears without releasing the accelerator pedal if pressed.

sWait until gearshifting has been completed before requesting the

next shift, avoiding a rapid sequence of multiple requests.

UP-shifting due to overrevving

The system “automatically” engages a higher gear if the accelerator pedal is pressed and the engine approaches the “runaway speed rate” (overrevving).

Important note

This will not occur when the system is in “SPORT” and “ESC OFF” driving mode.

DOWN-shifting

Use the left-hand DOWN paddle without releasing the accelerator pedal.

A DOWN-shift request is not accepted if engagement of the requested gear forces the engine beyond a certain RPM, depending on the gear requested, or if a DOWN-shift is already in progress because of engine underrevving.

In any event, it is advisable to:

s Shift gears without releasing the accelerator pedal if pressed.

s If DOWN-shifting is requested to start overtaking which requires

quick acceleration, press the accelerator pedal just before using the paddle.

sWait until gearshifting has been completed before requesting the

next shift, avoiding a rapid sequence of multiple requests.

DOWN-shifting due to underrevving

sThe system shifts down “automatically” if the engine goes below a

minimum number of revs (1250 RPM).

sThe DOWN-shift request from the paddle is ignored if

gearshifting is already in progress due to engine underrevving.

“N” (Neutral) request

With the engine running, pull both UP and DOWN paddles towards the steering wheel at the same time without pressing the brake pedal to request neutral “N”.

If necessary, “N” can be requested at any speed. Subsequently, if an “UP” or “DOWN” shift is requested, the system

will engage the gear most suited to the speed of the vehicle.

Stopping the vehicle

When the vehicle stops, the system automatically engages 1 unless Neutral has already been requested.

When the vehicle is stationary and the engine is running, hold the brake pedal down until ready to move off again.

Switching off the engine

The engine can be switched off with the gearbox either in “N” or with a gear engaged.

After turning the ignition key from position II to position 0, the gearbox display will remain on for a few more seconds to display the engaged gear. If the gearbox is in “N” a buzzer will sound. Before switching off, the letter “P” is displayed on the gearbox display to inform the driver that the Park Lock has been activated.

gear

Warning

Never leave the vehicle with the gearbox in “N”. Always make sure that the letter “P” (Parking) appears on the gearbox display.

Warning

Never leave the vehicle with the engine running.

Important note

If the vehicle is not in Parking mode (the letter “P” must be displayed on the gearbox display), the key cannot be removed.

For information on the Park Lock, see page 179.
