2017 Alfa Romeo Giulia Dashboard

Automatic Dimming Mirrors — If
Equipped

automatic dimming feature is also
available on the outside rear view
mirrors to prevent glare. The automatic
dimming button is the same for all rear
view mirrors.
Warning!
Vehicles and other objects seen in an
outside convex mirror will look smaller and
farther away than they really are. Relying
too much on side convex mirrors could
cause you to collide with another vehicle or
other object. Use your inside mirror when
judging the size or distance of a vehicle
seen in a side convex mirror.
Heated Mirrors
Push the rear defrostbutton in the
climate controls to activate the heated
mirrors.

vents. This setting heats the
passenger compartment the
quickest.
Air flow distributed between the
floor vents (hotter air) and the
central and side dashboard vents
(cooler air). This air distribution
setting is useful on sunny days
during spring and autumn.
Air flow distributed between the
floor vents, windshield, and front
side window defrosting/demisting
vents. This distribution setting
warms the passenger
compartment while preventing the
windows from fogging up.

Switching Off/On The
Climate Control System
Switching Off The Climate Control
System
Rotate the Air Seed Adjustment Knob
completely to the left to turn off the
Climate Control System.
With the air conditioner off:
Air recirculation is on.
The A/C compressor is off.
Thefanisoff.
The heated rear window can be
activated/deactivated.
Note:
The climate control system stores the
previously set temperatures and
resumes operation when any button on
the system is pushed.
Switching On The Climate Control
System
To switch the climate control system on
in automatic mode, push the AUTO
button.
Stop/Start Evo
The climate control system manages
the Stop/Start Evo system. Stop/Start
Evo has the engine shut off when
vehicle speed is 0 mph (0 km/h) to
maintain comfort within the vehicle.
Stop/Start Evo will deactivate in the
following scenarios:
The climate control system is in
AUTO mode (indicator illuminated), and
the vehicle has yet to reach the set
temperature
The LO setting is active
MAX-DEF status is active
When the Stop/Start Evo system is
active, the engine will restart if the
inside temperature changes
significantly, or if the LO setting, or
MAX-DEF setting, is activated.
With Stop/Start Evo system on, air flow
is reduced to keep the compartment
comfort conditions for longer.
Until the temperature drastically
changes within the cabin, the climate
control system will continue to maintain
the temperature while the engine is off.
By deactivating the Stop/Start Evo
system with the
button located on
the dashboard, the climate control
system will take priority over the engine
shutting off. Note:
In harsh climate conditions, limit the
use of the Stop/Start Evo system to
prevent the compressor from
continuously switching on and off. This
will cause rapid misting of the windows
and the accumulation of humidity in
the passenger compartment.
When the Stop/Start Evo system is
on, the climate control system will
always take air in from outside,
reducing the probability of the windows
fogging up.
Additional Heater — If
Equipped
Note:
The additional heater automatically
operates if the outside temperature and
engine coolant temperature are low.
The heater will not operate if battery
voltage is low.
System Maintenance
In winter, the Climate Control System
must be turned on at least once a
month for approximately 10 minutes.
Have the system inspected at an
authorized dealer before the summer.

TIRE REPAIR KIT —
IF EQUIPPED
Description
If a tire is punctured, you can make a
first emergency repair using the Tire
Repair Kit located in the rear storage
area under the load platform.
The Tire Repair Kit includes:
Sealant cartridge containing the
sealing fluid.
Filler tube.
Adhesive label with the writing "Max.
50 mph (80 km/h)”, to be attached in a
position easily visible to the driver (eg.
on the dashboard) after repairing the
tire.
Air compressor, complete with
pressure gauge and connectors.
An instruction leaflet for reference in
prompt and correct use of the Tire
Repair Kit, which must be then given to
the personnel dealing with the
sealant-treated tire.
A pair of protective gloves.
Some adaptors, for inflating different
elements.
Note: The sealing fluid is effective with
external temperatures of between -40°F
(-40°C) and 122°F (50°C). The sealing
fluid has an expiration date. To use the Tire Repair Kit, proceed as
follows:
1. Stop the vehicle in a position where
you can repair the tire safely. You
should be as far as possible from the
side of the road, and in a position that
is not dangerous for oncoming traffic.
Engage the hazard warning flashers,
remove the safety triangle from the
luggage compartment, and place it at a
suitable distance from the vehicle to
make other drivers aware of your
presence.
2. Verify that the valve stem (on the
wheel with the deflated tire) is in a
position that is near to the ground. This
will allow the tire repair kit hoses to
reach the valve stem and keep the tire
repair kit flat on the ground.
3. Shift the gear selector to PARK (P).
4. Apply the electric parking brake and
turn the engine OFF.
