2018 Alfa Romeo Giulia child lock

Important Notes
Failure to comply with what is reported
below may damage the transmission:
Shift into PARK (P) mode only with the
vehicle at a standstill.
Select REVERSE (R) mode, or pass
from REVERSE to another mode only
with the vehicle at a standstill and engine
idling.
Do not change between PARK (P),
REVERSE (R), NEUTRAL (N) or DRIVE (D)
modes with engine running at a speed
above idling.
Before activating any transmission
operating mode, fully depress the brake
pedal.
Note: The unexpected movement of the
vehicle can injure the occupants or
people nearby. Do not leave the vehicle
with engine running: before getting out of
the passenger compartment always
engage the electric park brake, select the
PARK (P) mode, stop the engine.
Warning!
It is dangerous to shift out of PARK or
NEUTRAL if the engine speed is higher than
idle speed. If your foot is not firmly pressing
the brake pedal, the vehicle could
accelerate quickly forward or in reverse.
You could lose control of the vehicle and hit
someone or something. Only shift into gear
when the engine is idling normally and your
foot is firmly pressing the brake pedal.
Unintended movement of a vehicle could
injure those in or near the vehicle. As with all
vehicles, you should never exit a vehicle
while the engine is running. Before exiting a
vehicle, always apply the park brake, shift
the transmission into PARK, and turn the
ignition STOP/OFF. When the ignition is in
the STOP/OFF mode, the transmission is
locked in PARK, securing the vehicle against
unwanted movement.
When leaving the vehicle, always make
sure the ignition is in the STOP/OFF mode,
remove the key fob from the vehicle, and
lock the vehicle.
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or
with access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing
children to be in a vehicle unattended is
dangerous for a number of reasons. A child
or others could be seriously or fatally
injured. Children should be warned not to
touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the
transmission gear selector.
Do not leave the key fob in or near the
vehicle (or in a location accessible to
children), and do not leave the ignition in the
AVV or ON mode. A child could operate
power windows, other controls, or move the
vehicle.
Caution!
Only engage the gear with engine at idling
while fully depressing the brake pedal. If the
transmission temperature exceeds the
normal operating limits, the transmission
control unit may change the gear
engagement order and reduce the drive
torque. If the transmission overheats, it
could operate incorrectly until it cools down.
When using the vehicle with extremely
low external temperatures, the
transmission operation may change
depending on the engine and transmission
temperature, as well as vehicle speed.
Activation of the torque converter clutch
and of the eighth gear is inhibited until the
transmission oil is correctly warmed up.
Complete operation of the transmission will
be enabled as soon as the fluid temperature
reaches the predefined value.
