Quadrifoglio Instrument Cluster
Instrument Cluster Descriptions
1. Tachometer•Indicates the engine speed in revolu-
tions per minute (RPM x 1000).
• Inside the tachometer there is a light
sensor capable of detecting ambient
light conditions and adjusting the oper-
ating mode (night/day) and the bright-
ness of the instrument panel and the
Information and Entertainment System display. 2. Engine Oil Temperature Gauge
•The digital bar indicator monitors the
temperature of the engine oil and starts
supplying indic ations when the fluid
temperature reaches approximately
122°F (

50°C).
• Under normal usage, the digital scale
should hover around the middle of the
scale according to the working condi-
tions.
WARNING!
A hot engine cooling system is dangerous.
You or others could be badly burned by
steam or boiling coolant. It is
recommended to call an authorized dealer
for service if your vehicle overheats

also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life,
and may affect the vehicle’s handling and
stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute
for proper tire maintenance, and it is the
driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire
pressure, even if under inflation has not
reached the level to trigger illumination of the
TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a
TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when
the system is not operating properly. The
TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with
the low tire pressure telltale. When the system
detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for
approximately one minute and then remain
continuously illuminated. This sequence will
continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups
as long as the malfunction exists. When the
malfunction indicator is illuminated, the
system may not be able to detect or signal low
tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions
may occur for a variety of reasons, including
the installation of replacement or alternate
tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the
TPMS from functioning properly. Always check
the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing
one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to
ensure that the replacement or alternate tires
and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to
function properly.
Rear Fog Lights
The indicator illuminates when the
rear fog light is activated.
Engine Check/Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL)
In normal conditions, when the igni-
tion is cycled to ON, the indicator
light illuminates, but it should turn
off as soon as the engine is started.
The operation of the indicator light may be
checked by the traffic police using specific
devices. Comply with the laws and regulations
of the country where you are driving. Under these conditions, the vehicle can
continue traveling at moderate speed but
without demanding excessive effort from the
engine or high speed. Prolonged use of the
vehicle with the indicator light on constantly
may cause damage. Contact an authorized
dealer as soon as possible.
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) System
This indicator light informs the driver
that the frontal collision alarm func
-
tion is not enabled.
Drive carefully and contact an authorized
dealer as soon as possible.
Fuel Reserve/Limited Range
The indicator light (or the symbol in
the display) illuminates when about
2.4 gallons (9 liters) of fuel is left in
the tank.
WARNING!
The TPMS has been optimized for the
original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS
pressures and warning have been
established for the tire size equipped on
your vehicle. Undesirable system operation
or sensor damage may result when using
replacement equipment that is not of the
same size, type, and/or style. Aftermarket
wheels can cause sensor damage. Using
aftermarket tire sealants may cause the
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
sensor to become inoperable. After using
an aftermarket tire sealant it is
recommended that you take your vehicle to
an authorized dealership to have your
sensor function checked.
CAUTION!
If, turning the ignition device to ON, the
warning light does not turn on or if it
turns on steadily or flashing when traveling
(on some versions together with the
message on the display), contact an
authorized dealer as soon as possible.

If the system detects a vehicle ahead, it will
automatically intervene by slightly braking or
accelerating in order to maintain the preset
distance. It will not exceed the original set
speed when adapting to the speed of the
vehicle ahead.
NOTE:

Adaptive Cruise Control performance is not
guaranteed under the following circum
-
stances, and it is recommended to turn the
system off when:
Driving in fog, heavy rain, or snow.
Driving in heavy traffic or construction
zones.

page 268.
WARNING!
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a conve -
nience system. It is not a substitute for
active driver involvement. It is always the
driver’s responsibility to be attentive of
road, traffic, and weather conditions,
vehicle speed, distance to the vehicle
ahead; and, most importantly, brake oper -
ation to ensure safe operation of the
vehicle under all road conditions. Your
complete attention is always required
while driving to maintain safe control of
your vehicle. Failure to follow these warn -
ings can result in a collision and death or
serious personal injury.
The ACC system:
• May react to pedestrians, oncoming
vehicles, and stationary objects (e.g.,
a stopped vehicle in a traffic jam or a
disabled vehicle) at speeds between
2 mph and 35 mph (4 km/h and
60 km/h).
• Cannot take street, traffic, and
weather conditions into account, and
may be limited upon adverse sight
distance conditions.
• Does not always fully recognize
complex driving conditions, which can
result in wrong or missing distance
warnings.
• Will bring the vehicle to a complete
stop while following a vehicle ahead
and hold the vehicle for approximately
two minutes in the stop position. If the
vehicle ahead does not start moving
within two minutes, the parking brake
will be activated and the ACC s

ystem
will be canceled.
You should switch off the ACC system:

TRAFFIC SIGN RECOGNITION
(TSR) SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
The Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) system
uses a camera mounted on the windshield to
detect recognizable road signs such as:
Speed limits
Signs indicating the end of the situations
indicated above
If the camera does not detect valid speed
limits, the radio system navigation system may
suggest unregulated speed limits.
The system always checks the traffic signs
indicating the current speed limit signs. The
system is able to recognize and display up to
two different road signs in the instrument
cluster display.
Depending on the unit of measurement (km or
mph) set through the “Unit of Measurement”
menu in the radio system, the TSR system will
automatically show the indication of the road
sign in the unit of measurements selected in
the instrument cluster display.
To Activate/Deactivate
The TSR system can be activated/deactivated
in the radio system in the “Driver Assistance”
menu. The system activation is signaled by
road signs shown on the instrument cluster
display.

Always remain alert and be ready to take
control of the car in the event that the TJA
system disables.
Always keep your hands on the steering
wheel when the TJA system is activated.
Maintain a safe distance from other vehi -
cles and pay attention to traffic condi -
tions.
The TJA system should only be used as a
driving aid. The drive must always pay
attention to their surroundings when the
system is operating and be ready to take
control of the vehicle at any time.
Do not place any objects on the steering
wheel (e.g. steering wheel covers) which
could interfere with the hand detection
sensor on the steering wheel.
