2016 Alfa Romeo Giulia change wheel

The first time the main beam headlights
are activated (pushing the left lever), the
function is activated (the warning light
or thesymbol comes on in the
instrument panel).
If the main beam headlights are actually
on, the blue icon/warning light
will
also come on in the instrument panel.
DIRECTION INDICATORS
Move the left lever fig. 30 as far as
possible (unstable position):
up: right direction signal activated, the
warning light
flashes on the
instrument panel;
down: left direction signal activated,
the warning light
flashes on the
instrument panel;
The direction indicators are switched off
automatically when the steering wheel is
straightened.
"Lane Change" function
When you want to signal the change of
the driving lane, move the lever until the
first impulse (about half stroke).
The direction indicator on the side
selected will flash five times and then
switch off automatically.
SBL FUNCTION (Static Bending Light)(where provided)
The SBL LEDs activate in order to better
illuminate the street and increase the
light angle while turning. This function isenabled by rotating the light switch to
position
orAUTO. The SBL LEDs
activate if the speed exceeds 12 mph
(20 km/h) and the steering radius is
below 1640 ft (500 m).
HEADLIGHT ALIGNMENT ADJUSTMENT
Headlight alignment corrector
(where provided)
This device is not available on vehicles
equipped with Xenon headlights
(Bi-Xenon 35 W headlamp version), as
they require an automatic alignment
correction system.
It only operates with the ignition device
at ON.
To adjust it, rotate the ring nut fig. 31.
Position 0: one or two people on the
front seats;
Position 1: 4 or 5 passengers;
Position 2: 4 or 5 passengers + load in
the luggage compartment
Position 3: driver + maximum
admissible load stowed only in the
luggage compartment
IMPORTANT Check the headlight
alignment each time the weight of the
load transported changes.
INSTRUMENT PANEL AND CONTROL
BUTTON GRAPHIC BRIGHTNESS
ADJUSTMENT
With side lights or headlights on, operate
on the ring nut fig. 32 upwards to
increase light brightness of the
instrument panel and of the control
button graphics, or turn the ring nut
downwards to decrease it. The control is
pulsed so that for every action the level
intensity increases/decreases, up to a
maximum of seven.

"TPMS check" message with some
dashes (– –) instead of the pressure
values.
From the following ignition cycle, the
TPMS will not emit any acoustic signal
and the display will not show the
message "TPMS check", but the dashes
will be still displayed instead of the
pressure value.
WARNING
54)The system is an aid for vehicle driving,
it DOES NOT warn the driver about incoming
vehicles outside of the detection areas. The
driver must always maintain a sufficient
level of attention to the traffic and road
conditions and for controlling the trajectory
of the vehicle.
55)The Forward Collision Warning (FCW)
system is automatically deactivated when
RACE mode is selected.
56)The system is an aid for the driver, who
must always pay full attention while driving.
The responsibility always rests with the
driver, who must take into account the
traffic conditions in order to drive in
complete safety. The driver must always
maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in
front.
57)If the driver depresses the brake pedal
fully or carries out a fast steering during
system operation, the automatic braking
function may stop (e.g. to allow a possible
manoeuvre to avoid the obstacle).58)The system intervenes on vehicles
travelling in the same lane. People, animals
and things (e.g. pushchairs) are not taken
into consideration.
59)If the car must be placed on a roller
bench for maintenance interventions or if it
is washed in an automatic roller washing
tunnel with an obstacle in the front part (e.g.
another car, a wall or another obstacle), the
system may detect its presence and
activate. In this case the system must be
deactivated through the settings of the
Connect system.
60)The presence of the TPMS does not
permit the driver to neglect regular checks
of the tyre pressure, including for the spare
tyre, and correct maintenance: the system is
not used to signalling a possible tyre fault.
61)Tyre pressure must be checked with
tyres rested and cold. Should it become
necessary for whatever reason to check
pressure with warm tyres, do not reduce
pressure even though it is higher than the
prescribed value. Repeat the check when the
tyres are cold.
62)Should one or more wheels be fitted
without sensors, the system will no longer be
available and a warning message will be
shown on the display, until wheels with
sensors are fitted again.
63)The TPMS cannot indicate sudden tyre
pressure drops (e.g. if a tyre bursts). In this
case, stop the vehicle, braking with caution
and avoiding abrupt steering.
64)Changes in outside temperature may
cause tyre pressures to vary. The system
may temporarily indicate insufficient
pressure. In this case, check the tyre
pressure when cold and, if necessary,
restore the inflation values.65)Replacing standard tyres with winter
tyres and vice versa requires TPMS system
adjustment that must only be performed by
Alfa Romeo Dealerships.
66)When a tyre is removed, it is advisable
to replace the rubber valve seal as well:
contact an Alfa Romeo Dealership. The
fitting/removal of the tyres and/or rims
require special care. To avoid damaging or
fitting the sensors incorrectly, tyre and/or
rim fitting/removal operations should only
be carried out by specialised staff. Contact
an Alfa Romeo Dealership.IMPORTANT
19)The system may have limited or absent
operation due to weather conditions such as:
heavy rain, hail, thick fog, heavy snow.
20)The section of the bumper before the
sensor must not be covered with adhesives,
auxiliary headlights or any other object.
21)System intervention might be
unexpected or delayed when other vehicles
transport loads projecting from the side,
above or from the rear, with respect to the
normal size of the vehicle.
22)Operation can be adversely affected by
any structural change made to the vehicle,
such as a modification to the front geometry,
tyre change, or a heavier load than the
standard load of the vehicle.
23)Incorrect repairs made on the front part
of the vehicle (e.g. bumper, chassis) may alter
the position of the radar sensor, and
adversely affect its operation. Go to an Alfa
Romeo Dealership for any operation of this
type.
