2019 Alfa Romeo Stelvio window

WARNING
20)Incorrect use of the electric windows
may be dangerous. Before and during
operation, always check that nobody is
exposed to the risk of being injured either
directly by the moving window or through
objects getting caught or hit by it.
ELECTRIC SUNROOF
(where provided)
21)
The electric sunroof comprises two glass
panels (the front one is mobile and the
rear one fixed) and is fitted with an
electrically operated sun blind.
Operation of the sunroof is only possible
with the ignition device at AVV.
The sun roof has three preset positions:
fully closed; comfort (intermediate
opening)l fully open.
IMPORTANT You cannot have the blind
closed when the roof is open.
OPENING
Press thesymbol on button 1 fig. 37:
the roof will open to the comfort position.
A second press will open it fully.
A long press of the same button will open
the roof until it is released, or if held
down, until it reaches the comfort
position. Use the button in the same way
to open the roof fully from that position.
11)
The automatic motion can be interrupted
in any position by pressing button
1 again.
If the electric blind is closed, the roof
opening control opens it too.
CLOSING
From the position of complete opening
press button 1 next to the
symbol:
the roof will close completely.
A long press of the same button moves
the roof until it is released.
The automatic motion can be interrupted
in any position by pressing button
1 again.
SWIVEL OPENING
To bring the roof to the swivel position,
press and release button 2 fig. 37.
This type of swivel opening can be
activated irrespective of the position of
the sunroof. When starting with the roof
in closed position, pressing the button
automatically causes its swivel-opening.
If the roof is already open, pressing the
button will open it to the swivel position.

KNOWING YOUR CAR

warning will disappear automatically as
soon as the radio-frequency interference
ceases to affect the system;
aftermarket application of coloured
films on the windows that interfere with
the radio waves emitted by the TPMS;
accumulation of layers of snow or ice
on the wheels or the wheel arches;
using snow chains;
use of rim/tyre assemblies without
sensors for TPMS;
After the punctured tyre has been
repaired with the original tyre sealant
contained in the TireKit, the previous
condition must be restored, so that the
warning light is off during normal
driving.
Deactivating TPMS messages
(for markets where provided)
When replacing the standard wheels with
others that do not have TPMS sensors
(for example when substituting the
rim/tyre assembly for the winter season)
and depending on the country of sale, the
messages only can be disabled
automatically at the next start-up after
the fault.
The TPMS will emit an acoustic warning,
the
warning light will flash for about
75 seconds, then it will stay on
continuously and the instrument panel
will display the "TPMS check" messagewith dashes (– –) instead of the pressure
values on the Connect system display.
From the following ignition cycle, the
TPMS will not emit any acoustic warning
and the display will not show the
message "TPMS check", but the dashes
will be still displayed instead of the
pressure value.
The system will only resume normal
operation when all the pressure sensors
have been detected again.
IMPORTANT If wheels without pressure
sensors (e.g. wheels with winter tyres)
have been installed on the vehicle and the
standard wheels (with sensors) are
stored close the vehicle, the system
could detect the pressures of the latter
and consequently display the fault cycle
again once its has left the sensitive area.
WARNING
54)The system is an aid for vehicle driving,
it DOES NOT warn the driver about incoming
vehicles outside of the detection areas. The
driver must always maintain a sufficient
level of attention to the traffic and road
conditions and for controlling the trajectory
of the vehicle.55)The system is an aid for the driver, who
must always pay full attention while driving.
The responsibility always rests with the
driver, who must take into account the
traffic conditions in order to drive in
complete safety. The driver must always
maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in
front.
56)If the driver depresses the brake pedal
fully or carries out a fast steering during
system operation, the automatic braking
function may stop (e.g. to allow a possible
manoeuvre to avoid the obstacle).
57)The system intervenes on vehicles
travelling in the same lane. People, animals
and things (e.g. pushchairs) are not taken
into consideration.
58)If the car must be placed on a roller
bench for maintenance interventions or if it
is washed in an automatic roller washing
tunnel with an obstacle in the front part (e.g.
another car, a wall or another obstacle), the
system may detect its presence and
activate. In this case the system must be
deactivated through the settings of the
Connect system.
59)The presence of the TPMS does not
permit the driver to neglect regular checks
of the tyre pressure, including for the spare
tyre, and correct maintenance: the system is
not used to signalling a possible tyre fault.
60)Tyre pressure must be checked with
tyres rested and cold. Should it become
necessary for whatever reason to check
pressure with warm tyres, do not reduce
pressure even though it is higher than the
prescribed value. Repeat the check when the
tyres are cold.

SAFETY

67)
ADJUSTING THE SEAT BELT HEIGHT
Four different adjustments in height are
possible.
To adjust the window height, from the top
downwards, press the button 4
fig. 73 and slide the handle downwards.
The height adjuster moves upwards even
without pressing the button.
Always adjust the height of the seat belts
to fit the person wearing it: this
precaution could greatly reduce the risk
of injury in the event of collision.
Correct adjustment is obtained when the
belt passes approximately half way
between the shoulder and the neck.
68) 69)
WARNING
66)Never press button 3 when travelling.
67)Remember that, in the event of an
accident, the rear seat passengers not
wearing seat belts are exposed to a very
serious risk and also represent a serious
danger for the front seat occupants.
68)Make height adjustment of the seat
belts when the car is stationary.
69)After height adjustment, always check
that the cursor to which the ring is fastened
is locked in one of the preset positions. To do
this, with the adjustment button released,
exert further pressure downwards to allow
the locking device to click if the grip has not
been released in one of the possible
positions.

81)Always make sure that the chest section
of the seat belt does not pass under the
arms or behind the back of the child. In the
event of an accident the seat belt will not be
able to secure the child, with the risk of
injury, including fatal injury. Therefore the
child must always wear the seat belt
correctly.
82)Do not use the same lower anchorage to
install more than one child restraint system.
83)If a Universal ISOFIX child seat is not
fixed to all three anchorages, the child seat
will not be able to protect the child correctly.
In a crash, the child could be seriously or
fatally injured.
84)Fit the child restraint system when the
car is stationary. The child restraint system
is correctly fixed to the brackets when you
hear the click. Follow the instructions for
assembly, disassembly and positioning that
the Manufacturer must supply with the child
restraint system.
85)If the vehicle was involved in an accident
of a certain severity, have the ISOFIX
anchorages and the child restraint system
replaced.
86)If the vehicle was involved in an accident
of a certain severity, have both the child
restraint system and the seat belt it was
attached to replaced.SUPPLEMENTARY RESTRAINT
SYSTEM (SRS) - AIRBAG
The vehicle is equipped with:
front driver airbag;
front passenger airbag;
driver and passenger front side bags
for pelvis, chest and shoulder protection
(Side bags);
side bags for head protection of front
seat passengers and rear side seat
passengers (window bag).
The location of the airbags on the vehicle
is marked by the word "AIRBAG" under
the Alfa Romeo emblem on the steering
wheel, on the dashboard, on the side trim
or on a label placed next to the airbag
deployment area.
FRONT AIRBAGS
The front (driver and passenger) airbags
protect the front seat occupants in the
event of head-on crashes of medium-high
severity, by placing the cushion between
the occupant and the steering wheel or
dashboard.
Therefore non-activation of airbags in
other types of collisions (side impacts,
rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.) does not
indicate a system malfunction.
Driver and passenger front airbags are
not a replacement of but complementary
to the seat belts, which should always be
worn, as specified by law in Europe and
most non-European countries.
In the event of impact, those not wearing
a seat belt are projected forwards and
may come into contact with the bag
which is still inflating. The protection
offered by the bag is compromised in
these circumstances.
Front airbags may not activate in the
following situations:
frontal impacts against highly
deformable objects not involving the
front surface of the vehicle (e.g. wing
collision against guard rail, etc.);
vehicle wedging under other vehicles
or protective barriers (e.g. trucks or
guard rails).
Failure to activate in the conditions
described above is due to the fact that
103

SIDE AIRBAGS
To help increase occupants protection in
the event of side impact collisions, the
vehicle is equipped with front side bags
and window bags.
Side bag
These consist of two bags located in the
front seat backrests fig. 94 that protect
the occupants’ pelvis, chest and shoulder
area in the event of a side impact of
medium/high severity.
They are marked by the "AIRBAG" label
sewn on the outer side of the front seats.
Window bag
This consists of a "curtain" bag housed
behind the roof side linings and covered
by special trims fig. 95.
They are designed to protect the head of
front and rear occupants in the event of a
side collision, thanks to the wide cushion
inflation surface.The deployment of side bags in the event
of side impacts of low severity is not
required.
In the event of a side impact, the system
provides best protection if the passenger
sits on the seat in a correct position,
allowing the window bag to inflate
correctly.

Important notes
Do not wash the seats with water or
pressurised steam (wash by hand or at
automatic seat washing stations).
The front and/or side airbags may
activate in the event of sharp impacts to
the underbody of the vehicle (e.g. impact
with steps, pavements, potholes or road
bumps etc.).
When the airbag deploys it emits a small
amount of dust: the dust is harmless and
does not indicate the beginning of a fire.The dust may irritate the skin and eyes
however: in this case, wash with neutral
soap and water.
Airbag checking, repair and replacement
must be carried out at an Alfa Romeo
Dealership.
If the car is scrapped, have the airbag
system deactivated at an Alfa Romeo
Dealership.
Pretensioners and airbags are deployed
in different ways on the basis of the type
of collision. Failure to activate one or
more of the devices does not indicate a
system malfunction.
WARNING
87)Do not apply stickers or other objects on
the steering wheel, on the dashboard in the
passenger side airbag area, on side
upholstery on the roof or on the seats. Never
put objects (e.g. mobile phones) on the
passenger side of the dashboard since they
could interfere with correct inflation of the
passenger airbag and also cause serious
injury to the passengers.
88)Always drive with your hands on the rim
of the steering wheel so that the airbag can
inflate freely if required. Do not drive with
your body bent forward. Keep your back
straight against the backrest.
89)The passenger airbag can be
deactivated on the Connect system by
selecting the following functions in sequence
on the main menu: “Settings”; “Safety”;
“Passenger airbag” and “Deactivation”.

90)Do not affix rigid objects to the garment
hooks or support handles.
91)Do not rest your head, arms or elbows on
the door, windows or the area in which the
Window bag is located to avoid possible
injury during airbag inflation.
92)Never lean your head, arms or elbows
out of the window.
93)If, when the ignition device is turned to
ON, the
warning light does not switch on
or stays on whilst driving, a fault may have
occurred in the restraint systems. In this
case the airbags or pretensioners may not
be deployed in an impact or, in a lower
number of cases, they may be deployed
accidentally. Before continuing, contact an
Alfa Romeo Dealership immediately to have
the system checked.
94)In case of a LED
OFFfailure (located
on the front courtesy light), thewarning
light appears on the instrument panel.
95)On cars with side bags, do not cover the
front seat backrests with extra covers.
96)Do not travel carrying objects in your
lap, in front of your chest or between your
lips (pipe, pencils, etc.): they could cause
severe injury if the airbag is deployed.
97)If the car has been subject to theft,
attempted theft, vandalism, or flooding,
have the airbag system inspected at an Alfa
Romeo Dealership.
98)Malfunction of the airbag failure
warning light is indicated by the activation
of an airbag failure icon and a dedicated
message on the instrument panel display.
The pyrotechnic charges are not disabled.
Before continuing, contact an Alfa Romeo
Dealership immediately to have the system
checked.99)The airbag deployment threshold is
higher than that of the pretensioners. For
collisions in the range between the two
thresholds, it is normal for only the
pretensioners to be activated.
100)The airbag does not replace seat belts
but increases their efficiency. Because front
airbags are not deployed for low-speed
crashes, side collisions, rear-end shunts or
rollovers, occupants are protected, in
addition to any side bags, only by their seat
belts, which must therefore always be
fastened.

SAFETY

AdBlue® (UREA) ADDITIVE FOR
DIESEL EMISSIONS
(2.2 JTD versions only)
The car is equipped with an UREA
injection system and Selective Catalytic
Reduction to meet emission standards.
These two systems ensure compliance
with the diesel emissions requirements;
at the same time, they ensure
fuel-efficiency, handling, torque and
power. For messages and system
warnings, refer to the "Warning lights and
messages" paragraph in the "Knowing the
instrument panel" chapter.
AdBlue® (UREA) is considered a very
stable product with a long shelf life.
Stored at temperatures LOWER than
89.6° F (32 °C), it has a shelf life of at
least one year.
For more information on the AdBlue®
liquid type, see the “Fluids and lubricants”
paragraph in the “Technical
specifications” chapter.
The car is provided with an automatic
AdBlue® heating system when the engine
starts allowing the system to work
correctly at temperatures lower
than -11 °C.
IMPORTANT AdBlue® freezes at
temperatures lower than 12.2 °F (-11 °C).
SUGGESTIONS FOR DRIVING
SAVING FUEL
Below are some suggestions which may
help you save fuel and thus lower the
amount of harmful emissions released
into the atmosphere.
Vehicle maintenance
Checks and operations should be carried
out in accordance with the "Scheduled
Servicing Plan" (see chapter
"Maintenance and care").
Tyres
Check the tyre pressures at least once
every four weeks: if the pressure is too
low, consumption levels increase as
resistance to rolling is higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded boot.
The weight of the vehicle and its
arrangement greatly affect fuel
consumption and stability.
Electric devices
Use electrical devices only for the
amount of time needed. The heated rear
window, additional headlights, screen
wipers and heater fan require a
considerable amount of energy;
increasing the current uptake increases
fuel consumption (by up to +25% in an
urban cycle).Climate control system
Using the climate control system will
increase consumption: use standard
ventilation when the temperature
outside permits.
Devices for aerodynamic control
The use of non-certified devices for
aerodynamic control may adversely
affect air drag and consumption levels.
DRIVING STYLE
Starting
Do not warm up the engine at low or high
revs when the vehicle is stationary; this
causes the engine to warm up more
slowly, thereby increasing fuel
consumption and emissions. It is
therefore advisable to move off
immediately, slowly, avoiding high
speeds: in this way the engine will warm
up more quickly.
Unnecessary actions
Avoid revving up when starting at traffic
lights or before stopping the engine. The
latter action, as well as double-
declutching, is unnecessary and causes
increased fuel consumption and
pollution.
Gear selection
Use a high gear when traffic and road
conditions allow it. Using a low gear for
faster acceleration will increase fuel
