SYMBOLS ON THE DISPLAY
Red symbols
Symbol What it means
LOW ENGINE OIL PRESSURE
The symbol switches on constantly when the system detects that the engine oil pressure is insufficient.
Do not use the vehicle until the failure has been solved. The switching on of the symbol does not indicate the amount of oil in the
engine: the oil level can be checked on the display upon entering the vehicle and also by activating the "Oil level" function on the
Connect system. On the Quadrifoglio version, the oil level can also be checked manually.

ALTERNATOR FAILURE
The switching on of the symbol with engine on corresponds to an alternator failure.
Contact an Alfa Romeo Dealership as soon as possible.

increased; steering is, however, possible.
Contact an Alfa Romeo Dealership as soon as possible.

Symbol What it means
FUEL CUT-OFF SYSTEM OPERATION
The symbol switches on in the event of fuel cut-off system intervention.
For reactivating the fuel cut-off system, refer to the description in the "Fuel cut-off system" section in the "In an emergency"
chapter. If it is not possible to restore the fuel supply, contact an Alfa Romeo Dealership.

POSSIBLE ICE ON ROAD
The symbol turns on when the outside temperature falls to or below 37°F (3°C).
ENGINE OIL DETERIORATED
(where provided)
The symbol is displayed only for a limited time.
IMPORTANT After the first indication, each time the engine is started the symbol will continue to switch on as described above
until the oil is changed.
If the symbol flashes, this does not mean that there is a fault on the vehicle, rather it simply reports that it is now necessary to
change the oil as a result of regular use of the vehicle. The deterioration of engine oil is accelerated by using the vehicle for short
drives, preventing the engine from reaching operating temperature.
Contact an Alfa Romeo Dealership as soon as possible.
17)
IMPORTANT
17)Deteriorated engine oil should be replaced as soon as possible after the symbol is switched on, and never more than 500 km after it first
switches on. Failure to observe the above may result in severe damage to the engine and invalidate the warranty. When this symbol comes on, it
does not mean that the level of engine oil is low, so if it flashes you do not need to top up the engine oil.

GLOW PLUG PREHEATING (Diesel versions)
This warning light comes on when the ignition device is brought to ON and will switch off when the glow plugs have reached the
preset temperature. The engine can be started as soon as the warning light switches off.
