Air flow to the windscreen and front
side window vents to
demist/defrost them.
Air flow at central and side
dashboard vents to ventilate the
chest and the face during the hot
season.
Air flow to the front and rear
footwell vents. This air distribution
setting heats the passenger
compartment most quickly, giving a
prompt sensation of warmth.
Air flow distributed between
footwell vents (hotter air) and
central and side dashboard vents
(cooler air). This air distribution
setting is useful in spring and
autumn on sunny days.
Air flow distributed between
footwell vents and windscreen and
front side window defrosting/
demisting vents. This distribution
setting allows the passenger
compartment to be warmed
effectively and prevents the
windows from misting.
Air flow distribution between
windscreen demisting/defrosting
vents and side and central
dashboard vents. This allows air to
be sent to the windscreen in
conditions of strong sunlight.
Air flow distribution to all diffusers
on the vehicle.
In AUTO mode, the air conditioner
automatically manages the air
distribution. When set manually, the air
distribution is indicated by the respective
symbols on the Connect system display
switching on.
START & STOP EVO
The automatic dual zone climate control
system manages the Start&Stop Evo
(engine off when the vehicle speed is
0 mph (0 km/h) to ensure adequate
comfort inside the vehicle.In particular, the climate control system
turns off the Stop & Start Evo if:
the climate control system is in AUTO
mode (LED on the button switched on)
and the temperature conditions inside
the car are far from a comfort
temperature;
the climate control system is in LO
maximum cooling;
the climate control system is in HI
maximum heating;
the climate control system is in the
MAX-DEF status.
With Stop & Start Evo on (engine off and
vehicle speed equal to 0 mph (0 km/h)),
the flow is reduced as much as possible,
to maintain the passenger compartment
comfort conditions for longer.
IMPORTANT
2)The system uses R1234yf coolant gas,
which does not pollute the environment in the
event of accidental leakage. Under no
circumstances use R134a and R12 fluids,
which are incompatible with the components
of the system.

KNOWING YOUR CAR
Symbol What it means
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE TOO HIGH
The symbol lights up when the engine has overheated.
In normal driving conditions: stop the car, switch off the engine and check that the coolant level in the reservoir is not below the
MIN mark. In this case, wait for the engine to cool down, then slowly and carefully open the cap, top up with coolant and check that
the level is between the MIN and MAX marks on the reservoir itself. Also check visually for any fluid leaks. Contact an Alfa Romeo
Dealership if the symbol comes on when the engine is started again.
If the vehicle is used under demanding conditions (e.g. in high-performance driving):slow down and, if the warning light stays on,
stop the vehicle. Stop for 2 or 3 minutes with the engine running and slightly accelerated to facilitate better coolant circulation,
then turn the engine off. Check that the coolant level is correct as described above.
IMPORTANT Over demanding routes, it is advisable to keep the engine running and slightly accelerated for a few minutes before
turning it off.
