DISPLAY
The car may be provided with a
multifunction or reconfigurable
multifunction display that shows useful
information to the driver, according
to the previous settings, when driving.
With the ignition key removed, the
display lights up and shows the time
and total odometer reading (in km
or miles) for a few seconds when a
door is opened/closed.

SPEEDOMETER (SPEED
INDICATOR)
This shows the speed of the car.
REV COUNTER
This indicates the engine rpm.
FUEL LEVEL GAUGE
This shows the amount of fuel left in the
fuel tank.
The warning light in the gauge lights up
when there are only 8 to 10 litres of
fuel remaining in the tank; if this
happens, refuel as soon as possible.
Do not travel with the fuel tank almost
empty: any gaps in fuel delivery could
damage the catalytic converter.ENGINE COOLANT
TEMPERATURE
INDICATOR
The needle shows the temperature of
the engine coolant and starts supplying
indications when the fluid temperature
exceeds approx. 50°C.
Under normal conditions, the needle
assumes different positions within
the scale depending on the usage
conditions.
The warning light turns on to indicate
an overheating of the engine coolant. In
this case, stop the engine and contact
an Alfa Romeo Dealership.TRIP COMPUTER
IN BRIEF
The Trip computer is used to display
information on car operation when
the key is turned to MAR.
This function is characterised by two
separate memories, called "Trip A"
and "Trip B", where the car's
"complete missions" (journeys) are
recorded in a reciprocally
independent manner.
Both memories can be reset: i.e. start
of a new journey.
“Trip A” is used to display the figures
relating to:
❒Range
❒Distance travelled
❒Average fuel consumption
❒Instant fuel consumption
❒Average speed
❒Trip time (driving time).
“Trip B” may be used to display the
figures relating to:
❒Distance travelled B
❒Average consumption B

❒Average speed B
❒Trip time B (driving time).
The “Trip B” function may be disabled
(see “Activating Trip B”). “Range” and
“Instant consumption" parameters
cannot be reset.
VALUES DISPLAYED
Range
This indicates the indicative distance
that may be travelled with the fuel in the
tank, assuming that driving conditions
do not change.
The display will show the reading '-----'
when the following events take place:
❒range value lower than 50 km (or
30 mi)
❒car parked with engine running for a
long period.
IMPORTANT The range can be affected
by several factors: driving style (see
“Driving style” paragraph in the
“Starting and driving” chapter), type of
route (motorway, towns and cities,
mountain roads, etc.), conditions of use
(load, tyre pressures, etc.). Trip
planning must therefore take the above
into account.Distance covered
Shows the distance covered since the
start of the new journey.
Average consumption
Shows the approximate average fuel
consumption since the start of the new
journey.
Instantaneous consumption
This indicates the fuel consumption.
The value is constantly updated. The
display will show “----”ifthecar
is parked with the engine running.
Average speed
This shows the average car speed as a
function of the overall time elapsed
since the start of the new journey.
Trip time
The time elapsed since the start of a
new journey.
INDICATIONS ON THE
DISPLAY
Each time a value is displayed, the
following information is shown:
❒animated icon in the upper part fig.
103;❒the word “Trip” (or “Trip A” or “Trip B”)
(B);
❒the name, value and unit of
measurement of the selected
parameter (e.g. “Range 1500 km”)
(C).
After a few seconds the name and
value of the selected parameter are
replaced by an icon fig. 104.
