SYSTEMS
The following systems are used for
reducing engine emissions:
Catalytic Converter
Oxygen Sensors
Evaporation Control System
ACTIVE AERODYNAMICS
Carbon Fiber Active Aero Front Spoiler
This is an automatic device, working at
the vehicle speed, which allows higher
reactivity at average speeds and higher
vehicle stability at high speeds,
regulating the air flow into the lower part
of the vehicle.
Note:The system is not active in
temperatures near or below zero, or
when the Alfa DNA Pro selector is in the
"Natural" or "Advanced Efficiency"
positions.
If there is a fault, a generic failure icon
will light up on the instrument panel

identify the type of malfunction. See your
authorized dealer if a fault occurs.

the excessive increase of the engine oil
temperature.
In the event of excessive engine oil
temperature, stop the engine
immediately and contact an authorized
dealer.
