2017 Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio warning lights

5. Start the compressor by placing the
power switch in the on position (I).
6. Inflate the tire to the pressure
indicated on the tire placard, located on
the driver’s side B-Pillar or the rear edge
of the driver’s side door. Refer to “Tires”
in “Servicing And Maintenance” for
more information. In order to obtain a
more precise reading, check the
pressure value on pressure gauge with
the compressor off.7. If the pressure is not at least
26.1 psi (1.8 bar) after 15 minutes,
disengage the compressor from the
valve and power outlet. Then, move the
vehicle forwards approximately five tire
turns in order to distribute the sealing
fluid inside the tire evenly, and then
repeat the inflation operation.
8. If you still cannot obtain a pressure
of at least 26 psi (1.8 bar) within
15 minutes from the compressor
switching on, do not drive the vehicle,
and contact an authorized dealer.
9. Drive the vehicle for about 5 miles
(8 km), stop, engage the electric
parking brake, and recheck the tire
pressure.
10. If the pressure is less than 26 psi
(1.8 bar),
Do Notdrive the vehicle, and
see an authorized dealer.
11. If a pressure value of at least 26 psi
(1.8 bar) is detected, restore the correct
pressure (with engine running and
electric parking brake engaged), and
drive immediately with great care to an
authorized dealer.
Warning!
Tire Repair Kit is not a permanent flat tire
repair. Have the tire inspected and repaired
or replaced after using Tire Repair Kit. Do
not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h) until the tire
is repaired or replaced. Failure to follow this
warning can result in injuries that are
serious or fatal to you, your passengers,
and others around you. Have the tire
checked as soon as possible at an
authorized dealer.
12. Apply the adhesive label from the
sealant bottle where it can be easily
seen by the driver as a reminder that
the tire has been treated with a Tire
Repair Kit, as well as not to exceed the
speed restriction for the treated tire.
Warning!
Do not adhere the speed restriction sticker
to the padded area on the steering wheel.
Adhering the speed restriction sticker to
the padded area on the steering wheel is
dangerous because the air bag may not
operate (deploy) normally resulting in
serious injury. In addition, do not adhere
the sticker to areas where warning lights or
the speedometer cannot be viewed.

Bump Starting
Never jump start the engine by pushing,
towing or coasting downhill.
Note:
You cannot start a vehicle with an
automatic transmission by pushing it.
Caution!
Accessories plugged into the vehicle power
outlets draw power from the vehicle’s
battery, even when not in use (i.e., cellular
phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long
enough without engine operation, the
vehicle’s battery will discharge sufficiently
to degrade battery life and/or prevent the
engine from starting.
REFUELING IN
EMERGENCY
Refueling in an emergency is described
in "Refueling The Vehicle" in "Starting
And Operating".
ENGINE
OVERHEATING
Engine overheating may occur in
situations of extreme environmental
temperatures, frequent engine
stops/starts, or driving in heavy traffic.
If the engine becomes overheated, the
Engine Temperature Warning Light in
the instrument cluster will illuminate
along with a dedicated message. Refer
to "Warning Lights And Messages" in
the "Getting To Know Your Instrument
Panel" for more information.
In any of the following situations, you
can reduce the potential for overheating
by taking the appropriate action.
On the highways — slow down.
In city traffic — while stopped, place
the transmission in NEUTRAL, but do
not increase engine idle speed.
Note:
There are steps that you can take to
slow down an impending overheat
condition:
If your air conditioner (A/C) is on,
turn it off. The A/C system adds heat
to the engine cooling system and
turning the A/C off can help remove
this heat.

SCHEDULED
SERVICING
Correct servicing is crucial for
guaranteeing a long life for the vehicle
under the best conditions.
For this reason, Alfa Romeo has
planned a series of checks and services
for your vehicle at fixed intervals based
on distance and time, as described in
the Scheduled Servicing Plan.
Before each service, it is always
necessary to carefully follow the
instructions in the Scheduled Servicing
Plan (e.g. periodically check level of
fluids, tire pressure, etc.).
Scheduled Servicing is offered by an
authorized dealer according to a set
time schedule. If, during each
operation, in addition to the ones
scheduled, the need arises for further
replacements or repairs, these may be
carried out with owners explicit consent
only.
Note:
Scheduled Servicing intervals are
required by the Manufacturer. Failure to
have them carried out may invalidate
the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
You are advised to inform your
authorized dealer of any small operating
irregularities without waiting for the next
service.
Periodic Checks
Every month or every600miles
( 1,000 km) or before long trips check
and, if necessary, top off:
Engine coolant level.
Brake fluid level (if insufficient, see
your authorized dealer as soon as
possible).
Windshield washer fluid level.
Tire inflation pressure and condition.
Operation of lighting system
(headlights, direction indicators, hazard
warning lights, etc.).
Operation of windshield
washing/wiping system and
positioning/wear of wiper blades.
Every 2,000 miles ( 3,000km), check
and top off if required:
Engine oil level.
Heavy Usage Of The Car
If the vehicle is used under one of the
following conditions:
Dusty roads.
Short, repeated journeys less than
4 miles (7-8 km) at sub-zero outside
temperatures.
Engine often idling or driving long
distances at low speeds or long periods
of inactivity.
In the event of a long period of
inactivity. The following checks must be carried
out more often than indicated in the
Scheduled Servicing Plan:
Check cleanliness of hood and trunk
locks, cleanliness and lubrication of
linkage.
Visually inspect conditions of: engine,
transmission, pipes and hoses
(exhaust/fuel system/brakes) and
rubber elements (sleeves/bushes, etc.).
Check battery charge and battery
fluid level (electrolyte).
Visually inspect conditions of the
accessory drive belts.
Check and, if necessary, change
engine oil and replace oil filter.
Check and, if necessary, replace
cabin air filter.
Check and, if necessary, replace air
cleaner.
Severe Duty All Models
Change Engine Oil at 4,000 miles
(6,500 km) if the vehicle is operated in a
dusty and off-road environment or is
operated predominately at idle or only
very low engine RPM’s. This type of
vehicle use is considered Severe Duty.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE

Engine Coolant Fluid
If the level is too low, unscrew the cap
of reservoir and add the fluid described
in the "Technical Specifications"
chapter.
Washer Fluid For
Windshield/Headlights
The windshield and headlights washer
fluid reservoir (if equipped) has a
telescopic filler.
If the level is too low, remove reservoir
cap and lift the filler. Then, add the fluid
described in the "Technical
Specifications" chapter.
Note:
The headlight washing system will not
work if the liquid level is low (situation
indicated by the symbol on the
instrument panel display). The
windshield washer will keep working.
On vehicles equipped with headlight
washers, if equipped, there is a
reference notch on the dipstick: ONLY
the windshield/rear window washer
operates with the level below this
reference.
Brake Fluid
Check that the fluid is at the maximum
level. If the fluid level in the tank is low,
contact your authorized dealer to have
the system checked.
Automatic Transmission
Activation System Oil
The transmission control oil level should
only be checked at your authorized
dealer.
Useful Advice For
Extending The Life Of
Your Battery
To avoid draining your battery and
make it last longer, observe the
following instructions:
When you park the car, ensure that
the doors and trunk are closed properly
to prevent any lights from remaining on
inside the passenger's compartment.
Do not keep accessories (e.g. radio,
hazard warning lights, etc.) switched on
for a long time when the engine is not
running.
Before performing any operation on
the electrical system, disconnect the
negative battery cable.
If you wish to install electrical
accessories after purchasing the car
that require permanent electrical supply
(e.g. alarm, etc.), or accessories which
influence the electrical supply
requirements, contact your authorized
dealer, whose qualified staff will
evaluate the overall electrical
consumption.
Caution!
If the charge level remains under 50% for a
long time, the battery may be damaged by
sulphation, reducing its capacity and
efficiency at start the vehicle. The battery
is also more prone to the risk of freezing
at temperatures as high as 14°F (-10°C).
Note:
After the battery is disconnected, the
steering must be initialized. The
warning light on the instrument
panel switches on to indicate this. To
carry out this procedure, simply turn the
steering wheel all the way from one end
to the other, and then turn it back to the
central position.
