1 Transmission Information
Shows the following information related
to the transmission operation mode (M, P,
R, N, D).
If the gear is changed using the steering
wheel lever (where provided), In D mode
or manual M mode, it also displays the
engaged gear.
In M mode, it also shows when to shift
gear up or down.
2 Front, side anti-collision systems,
Cruise Control
Displays the operation the following
modes:
Forward Collision Warning (FCW)
Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
Cruise Control (CC) or Active Cruise
Control (ACC) (where provided)
For further information, see relevant
paragraphs.
3 Speed limit warning light
Shows information regarding the Speed
Limiter function.
For further information, see relevant
paragraph.
4 Reconfigurable main area
Can display the following screens:
Home
Trip A
Trip B (can be activated/deactivated
on the Connect system)
PerformanceThe screens can be selected, on rotation,
by pressing the button shown in fig. 52.
Depending on the chosen driving mode
(Dynamic / Dynamic + (where provided),
Normal, Advanced Efficiency), which can
be selected through the “Alfa DNA™”
system, the screens can be graphically
different. The navigation instructions and
call information can be repeated on the
Connect system display and also in this
area of the display. These functions can
be set on the Connect system.
Home
The parameters shown on the display, for
the modes: Dynamic / Dynamic + (where
provided), Normal and Advanced
Efficiency are:
Time (on the 3.5" FT display shown
only if the Phone function repeat mode
has not previously been activated).
Outside temperature (on the 3.5" FT
display shown only if the Phone function
repeat mode has not previously been
activated).
Current speed (shown if the repeat
modes of the Phone and Navigation
functions have not been previously
activated).
Range (on the 3.5" FT display shown if
the Radio and Media functions repeat
mode have not been previously
activated).
Trip A and B
The "Trip computer" can be used to
display, for all driving modes (Dynamic,
Normal, Advanced Efficiency) and with
the ignition device ON, the
measurements regarding the operating
state of the car. This function is
characterised by two separate records,
called “Trip A” and “Trip B” (the latter can
be deactivated by the Connect system),
where the car’s “complete missions”
(journeys) are recorded in a reciprocally
independent manner.
“Trip A” and “Trip B” allow you to see the
following values:
Distance travelled
Average fuel consumption
Average speed
Active trip
Fuel consumption indicator (7" TFT
Display only)
5205036V0002EM
47
To reset the values, press and hold down
the button on the right stalk fig. 52.
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
Views the position indicating the cardinal
point.
6 Milometer
Indicates the total kilometres (or miles)
travelled.
7 Failure warning lights
Area dedicated to displaying failures, the
following symbols could be displayed on
rotation:
Low criticality symbols (yellow amber).
High criticality symbols (red).
8 Car range (7" TFT Display only)
Indicates the kilometres (or miles) left
before the fuel tank is empty.
9 Light icons (7” TFT Display only)
Displays the icon related to the active
mode among the following:
dipped beam headlights;
main beam headlights;
Auto low beam headlights;
Auto main beam headlights.PARAMETERS SET BY USER
A series of user-programmable functions
can be set using the Connect system.
The basic settings only are described:
Units & Language
Time & Date
Control panel
To access the list with the
aforementioned items, proceed as
follows: from the main menu, activated
by pressing the MENU button fig. 53,
select the function "Settings", by turning
and pressing the Rotary Pad.
Turn the Rotary Pad to choose the
desired option and press to activate it.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL
Let’s get to the core of the vehicle: seeing how you can exploit all
of its potential to the full. We’ll look at how to drive it safely in any
situation, so that it can be a welcome companion, with our comfort
and our wallets in mind.

restored.
IMPORTANT In the event of a temporary
failure it is in any case recommended to
contact an Alfa Romeo Dealership as
soon as possible.
GEAR ENGAGEMENT DISABLING
SYSTEM WITHOUT BRAKE PEDAL
PRESSED
This system prevents you from moving
the gear lever from position P (Park) if
the brake pedal has not been previously
depressed.
To bring the gear lever to a position other
than P (Park), the ignition device must be
in position AVV (engine on or off) and the
brake pedal must be pressed.
WARNING
107)Never use position P (Park) instead of
the electric parking brake. Always engage
the electric parking brake when parking the
vehicle to avoid the accidental movement of
the vehicle.
108)If the P (Park) position is not engaged,
the vehicle could move and injure people.
Before leaving the vehicle, make sure that
the gear lever is in position P and that the
electric parking brake is engaged.109)Do not shift the gear lever to N
(Neutral) and do not stop the engine when
driving on a downhill road. This type of
driving is dangerous and reduces the
possibility of intervening in the case of
variation of the road traffic or surface. You
risk losing control of your vehicle and
causing accidents.
IMPORTANT
34)Before selecting P (Park) mode, bring the
ignition device to position ON and press the
brake pedal. Otherwise, the gear lever may
get damaged.
35)Engage reverse only with the car
stationary, engine at idling speed and
accelerator fully released.
"ALFA DNA™"SYSTEM
“Alfa DNA™”SYSTEM (car dynamic
control system)
This device allows, using the selector
fig. 100 (on the central tunnel), different
car response modes to be selected
according to driving style and road
conditions:
d = Dynamic (sports driving mode)
n = Normal (mode for driving in normal
conditions)
a = Advanced Efficiency (ECO driving
mode for maximum fuel savings)
RACE = track race driving mode (where
provided)
= adjusts the calibration of the
suspensions (where provided)
When the engine is stopped, the selector
always returns to “n” (Normal) mode.
