automatically and to adapt the lighting
near towns.
Function enabling
This function is enabled in the Connect
system by selecting “Settings”, “Lights”
fig. 30 and then “Automatic High Beam”
and with the light switch turned to
position
.
Function activation
The first time the high beam headlights
are activated (pushing the left lever), the
function is activated (the warning light
or thesymbol comes on in the
instrument panel).
If the high beam headlights are actually
on, the blue icon/warning light
will
also come on in the instrument panel.
The function activates the high beam
headlights when the speed is higher than
37 mph (60 km/h).
When the speed is lower than 15 mph
(25 km/h) and the function is active, the
function switches the main beam
headlights off.
If the fixed main beam headlights are
operated quickly again (pushing the left
stalk towards the instrument panel), the
warning light/icon
will switch on in the
instrument panel and the main beam
headlights will be switched on constantly
until the speed exceeds 37 mph
(60 km/h).
Function deactivation
To deactivate the automatic function
rotate the light switch ring nut to position
.
IMPORTANT NOTES
The correct operation of the automatic
high beam function may be influenced by:
presence of reflections on road sign
surfaces;
dim light of other road users (e.g.
cyclists or pedestrians);
bad weather (rain or fog);
presence of dirt on the sensor or
obstruction of the sensor;
damage to the windscreen or presence
of dirt or ice/snow or misting up of the
windscreen;
presence of vehicles approaching in
the opposite direction partially obscured
by a central obstacle.
IMPORTANT Make sure that the
windscreen is always defrosted and
demisted in winter.
DIRECTION INDICATORS

its travel (unstable position):
up: right direction signal activated, the
warning light
flashes on the
instrument panel;
down: left direction signal activated,
the warning light
flashes on the
instrument panel.
The direction indicators are switched off
automatically when the steering wheel is
straightened.
"Lane Change" function
When you want to signal a lane change,
move the lever until the first impulse
(about half stroke).
The direction indicator on the selected
side flashes three times and then
switches off automatically.

Performance
The displayed parameters are different
in function from the active mode, and the
modes can be selected through the “Alfa
DNA™” system and are as follows:
Normal: The screen graphically
reproduces some parameters closely
linked to the efficiency of the driving
style, with a view to limiting consumption;
Advanced Efficiency: The three central
icons on the screen indicate the
effectiveness of the driving style, linked
to the following parameters:
acceleration, deceleration and gear
shifts, with a view to limiting
consumption. The bar below the icons
shows current consumption and the
green line represents the optimal area.
The globe (7" TFT Display) lights up
gradually according to lower
consumption.
Dynamic / Dynamic + (where
provided): The displayed parameters are
related to car stability, the graphs
illustrate the trend of the
longitudinal/lateral accelerations
(G-meter information), considering
gravity acceleration as a reference unit.
Lateral acceleration peaks are also
indicated.5 Compass

WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
IMPORTANT The warning light switches on together with a dedicated message and/or acoustic signal when applicable. These
indications are indicative and precautionary and as such must not be considered as exhaustive and/or alternative to the information
contained in the Owner Handbook, which you are advised to read carefully in all cases. In the event of a failure indication, always
refer to the contents of this chapter.
IMPORTANT The failure indicators appearing on the display are divided into two categories: very serious and less serious faults.
Serious faults are indicated by a repeated and prolonged warning "cycle". Less serious faults are indicated by a warning "cycle" with a
shorter duration. You can stop the warning cycle in both cases by pressing the button located on the windscreen wiper lever. The
instrument panel warning light will stay on until the cause of the failure is eliminated.

WARNING LIGHTS ON INSTRUMENT PANEL
Possible detailed messages and/or acoustic signalling can be matched to a few warning lights and symbols.
Red warning lights
Warning
lightWhat it means
INSUFFICIENT BRAKE FLUID / ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE ON
The warning light switches on when the ignition device is brought to ON, but it should switch off after a few seconds.
Low brake fluid level
The warning light turns on when the level of the brake fluid in the reservoir falls below the minimum level, possibly due to a leak in
the circuit.
Go to an Alfa Romeo Dealership to have the system checked as soon as possible.
Electric parking brake on
The warning light switches on when the electric parking brake is engaged.
Release the electric parking brake, then check that the warning light has switched off.
If the warning light stays on, contact an Alfa Romeo Dealership.
IMPORTANT If the car is parked on a gradient of more than 30% and/or the brake temperature is greater than 662°F (350°C),
when the parking brake is engaged, the warning light will flash to indicate a potentially unsafe condition.
EBD FAILURE
The simultaneous switching on of the
(red) and(amber) warning lights with the engine on indicates either a failure of the
EBD system or that the system is not available. In this case, the rear wheels may suddenly lock and the vehicle may swerve when
braking sharply.
Drive very carefully to the nearest Alfa Romeo Dealership to have the system inspected immediately.
