2017 Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio instrument cluster

Then, drive the vehicle for up to
10 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h).
The TPMS will chime, the "TPM Telltale
Light" will flash on and off for
75 seconds and then turn off. The
instrument cluster will display the
“SERVICE TPM SYSTEM” message
and then display pressure values in
place of the dashes. On the next
ignition switch cycle the "SERVICE TPM
SYSTEM" message will no longer be
displayed, as long as no system fault
exists.
Note:
The TPMS is not intended to
replace normal tire care and
maintenance, or to provide warning of
a tire failure or condition.
The TPMS should not be used as a
tire pressure gauge while adjusting
your tire pressure.
Driving on a significantly
underinflated tire will cause the tire to
overheat, and can lead to tire failure.
Underinflation also reduces fuel
efficiency and tire tread life, and may
affect the vehicle’s handling and
stopping ability.
The TPMS is not a substitute for
proper tire maintenance, and it is the
driver’s responsibility to maintain
correct tire pressure using an
accurate tire pressure gauge, even if underinflation has not reached the level
to trigger illumination of the “Tire
Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light”.
Seasonal temperature changes will
affect tire pressure, and the TPMS will
monitor the actual tire pressure in the
tire.

SAFETY

Caution!
Damage to the transmission may occur if
the following precautions are not observed:
Shift into or out of PARK or REVERSE
only after the vehicle has come to a
complete stop.
Do not shift between PARK, REVERSE,
NEUTRAL, or DRIVE when the engine is
above idle speed.
Before shifting into any gear, make sure
your foot is firmly pressing the brake pedal.
Display
The following information is shown on
the dedicated area of the display:
In Automatic Mode : the active
mode (P, R, N, D) and with "D" the
current gear number.
In Manual Drive Mode
(Sequential) : the mode (M), the current
gear and the double or single gear shift
request, both up and down (single or
double arrow).
Gear Selector
The gear functioning is controlled by the
gear selector, which can assume the
following positions:
P = PARK
R = REVERSE
N = NEUTRAL
D= DRIVE, (automatic forward
speed)
AutoStick : + shifting to higher gear
in manual (sequential) driving mode; –
shifting to lower gear in sequential
driving mode.
The positions diagram is illustrated on
the top of the gear selector. The letter corresponding to the mode
selected on the gear selector lights up
and appears on the instrument cluster
display.
To select a mode, move the gear
selector forward or backwards,
together with pressing the brake pedal

Activation
Starting from DRIVE (D) mode, to
activate the sequential drive mode,
move the selector to the left (– and +
indication of the trim). The gear
engaged will be shown on the display.
Shifting is made by moving the gear
selector forwards, towards symbol – or
backwards, towards symbol +.
Steering Wheel Shift Paddles —
If Equipped
The gear can be manually shifted also
by using the paddles behind the
steering wheel, pull the right paddle (+)
towards the steering wheel and release
it to engage a higher gear, perform the
same operation with the left paddle (-)
to engage a lower gear.Note:
If only one manual shift is necessary,
the letter (D) will remain on the display
with the engaged gear next to it.
Deactivation
To deactivate the sequential driving mode,
bring the gear selector back in position
DRIVE (D) ("automatic" driving mode).
Warning!
Do not downshift for additional engine
braking on a slippery surface. The drive
wheels could lose their grip and the vehicle
could skid, causing a collision or personal
injury.
Note:
To select the correct gear for
maximum deceleration (engine brake),
just keep the gear paddle pulled (–):
the transmission goes to an operating
mode in which the vehicle can slow
down easily.
The vehicle will keep the gear
selected by the driver until the safety
conditions allow it.
This means, for example, that the
system will try to prevent the engine
from switching off, automatically
downshifting if the engine speed is too
low. Automatic Transmission
Limp Home Mode
Transmission function is monitored
electronically for abnormal conditions. If
a condition is detected that could result
in transmission damage, Transmission
Limp Home Mode is activated.
In this condition, the transmission stays
in fourth gear, regardless of the selected
gear. Positions PARK (P), REVERSE (R)
and NEUTRAL (N) still work.
The
symbol might light up in the
instrument cluster.
Temporary failure
In the event of a momentary problem,
the transmission can be reset to regain
all forward gears by performing the
following steps:
1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Shift the transmission into PARK (P),
if possible. If not, shift the transmission
to NEUTRAL (N).
3. Push and hold the ignition until the
engine turns OFF.
4. Wait for about 10 seconds, then
restart the engine.
5. Shift into the desired gear range. If
the problem is no longer detected, the
transmission will return to normal
operation.
Note: Even if the transmission can be
reset, we recommend that you visit your

mode was selected before the engine
was stopped.
When the engine is next started, the
"Race" mode selected previously is
not retained. The system will
reactivate in "Dynamic" mode.
It is not possible to go directly from
"Dynamic" mode to "Advanced
Efficiency" mode and vice versa. You
must always activate the “Normal” mode
first and then select the other mode.
ALFA ACTIVE
SUSPENSION (AAS)
— IF EQUIPPED
The vehicle's electronic suspension
management system is aimed at
optimizing the vehicle's performance.
The system continuously monitors the
damping of the suspension through the
actuator installed on each shock
absorber. The calibration of the shock
absorbers can be adjusted to the
conditions of the road surface and to
the dynamic conditions of the vehicle,
improving its comfort and road
handling.
The driver can choose, even while
driving, (only in "d" or "Race" mode),
between two types of suspension
calibration: a more sporty ride or a
more comfortable one.
By pushing the button, the system will
work with the shock absorber
calibration which favors driving comfort. If the system fails, the following symbol

STOP/START EVO
Stop/Start Evo
The Stop/Start Evo system
automatically shuts off the engine
during a vehicle stop if the required
conditions are met. Releasing the brake
pedal or accelerator pedal will
automatically restart the engine.
The function was developed to increase
vehicle efficiency by reducing fuel
consumption, gas emissions, and
sound pollution.
Operating Mode
Stopping the Engine
With vehicle at a standstill and brake
pedal pressed, the engine switches off
if the gear selector is in a position other
than REVERSE (R).
The system does not operate when the
gear selector is in REVERSE (R), in
order to making parking maneuvers
easier.
In the event of stops uphill, engine
switching off is disabled to make the
"Hill Start Assist" function available
(works only with running engine).
NOTE: The engine can only be
automatically stopped after having run
at about 6 mph (10 km/h). After an
automatic restart, the vehicle only
needs to exceed a speed of 0.3 mph
(0.5 km/h) to stop the engine.Engine stopping is signaled by the
symbol lighting up on the instrument
cluster display.
Restarting the Engine
To restart the engine, release the brake
pedal.
With brake pressed, if the gear selector
is in automatic mode - DRIVE (D) - the
engine can be restarted by moving the
gear selector to REVERSE (R) or
NEUTRAL (N) or "AutoStick".
With brake pressed, if the gear selector
is in "AutoStick" mode, the engine can
be restarted by moving the gear
selector to "+" or "–", or REVERSE (R)
or NEUTRAL (N).
When the engine has been stopped
automatically, keeping the brake pedal
pressed, the brake can be released
keeping the engine off by quickly
shifting the gear selector to PARK (P).
To restart the engine, just move the

STARTING AND OPERATING

Possible Reasons The
Engine Does Not
Autostop
For higher comfort and increased
safety, and to reduce emissions, there
are certain conditions where the engine
will not stop despite the system being
active, such as:
Engine still cold.
Especially cold outside temperature.
Battery not sufficiently charged.
Driver's door not shut.
Driver's seat belt not fastened.
Reverse gear engaged (e.g. for
parking maneuvers).
With the automatic climate control
active, an adequate cabin heating or
cooling comfort has not been reached
or with MAX-DEF function active.
During the first period of use, to
initialize the system.
Steering angle beyond threshold.
Engine Restarting
Conditions
Due to comfort, emission control and
safety reasons, the engine can restart
automatically without any action by the
driver, under special conditions, such
as:
Battery not sufficiently charged.
Reduced braking system vacuum
(e.g. if the brake pedal is pressed
repeatedly).
Vehicle moving (e.g. when driving on
roads with a grade).
Engine stopping by the Stop/Start
Evo system for more than approx. three
minutes.
With the automatic climate control
active, an adjustment in cabin heating
or cooling is made or with MAX-DEF
function active.
Safety Functions
When the engine is stopped through
the Stop/Start Evo system, if the driver
releases their seat belt, opens the
driver's or passenger's door, or opens
the hood from inside the vehicle, the
engine can be restarted only by using
the ignition.
This condition is indicated to the driver
both through a buzzer and a message
on the instrument cluster display.
Irregular Operation
In the event of malfunction, the
Stop/Start Evo system is deactivated.
For failure indications, see the "Warning
Lights and Messages" paragraph,
"Getting To Know Your Instrument
Panel" chapter.
Vehicle Inactivity
In the event of vehicle inactivity (or if the
battery is replaced), special attention
must be paid to the disconnection of
the battery power supply. Proceed as follows:
Remove connector from socket to
disconnect sensor (battery status
monitoring) installed on the negative
pole of the battery. This sensor should
never be disconnected from the pole
except if the battery is replaced.
Note:
After setting the ignition to STOP
and having closed the driver side door,
wait at least one minute before
disconnecting the electrical supply from
the battery. When reconnecting the
electrical supply to the battery, make
sure that the ignition is in the STOP
mode and the driver side door is
closed.
