ENVIRONMENTAL
PROTECTION SYSTEMS
The following systems are used for reducing
engine emissions:
Catalytic Converter
Oxygen Sensors
Evaporation Control System
ACTIVE AERODYNAMIC
SPOILER
(QUADRIFOGLIO VEHICLES)
CARBON FIBER ACTIVE AERO FRONT
S
POILER
This is an automatic device working at the vehicle
speed to regulate air flow in the lower part of the
vehicle. It allows higher reactivity at average
speeds and higher vehicle stability at high
speeds.
NOTE:
The Active Aero Spoiler is active in the Dynamic or
RACE mode of the Alfa DNA Pro Selector; it is not
active in any mode when external temperatures
are near or below zero. Front Fascia
If there is a fault, a generic failure icon will light up
on the instrument panel display, along with a
message that will identify the type of malfunction.
See an authorized dealer if a fault occurs.

122°F (50°C).
Under normal usage, the temperature should
remain around the middle of the digital scale
according to the working conditions.

The Engine Oil Temperature warning light will
turn on to signal the excessive increase of the
engine oil temperature.
In the event of excessive engine oil temperature,
stop the engine immediately and contact an
authorized dealer.

message is displayed, and a chime will sound
when 2.3 Gallons (9.0 L) of fuel are left in the
tank.
Proceeding further, the second white notch will
go off and the last one will become red, together
with the indication "E" present at the bottom of
the tank.Fuel Level Gauge

call information can be set and displayed in
the Information and Entertainment System.
Home
The parameters shown on the display, for the
modes: Dynamic, Natural and Advanced Effi -
ciency are:
• Time
• External Temperature
•
Current speed (shown only if the repeat
mode of the “Navigation” and “Phone” func -
tions have not been previously activated).

Instrument Cluster Display Trip A And B
For all driving modes (Dynamic, Natural, and
Advanced Efficiency) and with the ignition de
-
vice ON, the Trip computer can be used to dis -
play the measurements regarding the
operating state of the vehicle. This function is
characterized by two separate records, called
Trip A and Trip B (the latter can be deactivated
by Information and Entertainment System),
where the complete journeys are recorded in a
reciprocally independent manner.
Trip A and Trip B are used to display the val -
ues relating to:
• Distance traveled
• Average fuel consumption
• Average speed
• Active trip
• Fuel consumption indicator

Performance
The displayed parameters differ according to
the active mode. The modes which can be se-
lected using the Alfa DNA system are:
Natural
Efficiency Consumption Graph
The screen graphically reproduces some pa -
rameters closely linked to the efficiency of
the driving style, with a view to limiting con -
sumption. Advanced Efficiency
Dynamic Driving Style
The three central icons, on the screen, indi -
cate the effectiveness of the driving style
linked to the parameters of: acceleration, de -
celeration and gear shift with a view to reduc -
ing fuel consumption.
The graphic bar below the icons shows cur -
rent consumption and the green line rep -
resents the optimal area. The globe lights up
gradually according to lower consumption.
Alternative Performance
The displayed parameters vary depending on
the active mode. The modes can be selected
through the Alfa DNA™ system and are as fol -
lows: Natural and Advanced Efficiency
The display graphically shows the values of:
• instantaneous consumption
• average fuel consumption (based on
“Trip A”);
Below a certain speed value, when the accel -
erator pedal is not pressed or in the event of
failure, dashes are displayed in place of the
consumption value ("– –. –").
Natural and Advanced Efficiency
Dynamic
The display graphically shows the values of:
• accelerator pedal position (expressed in
percentage);
• brake pedal position (expressed in
percentage);
• engine coolant temperature (H = hot/
C = cold).

WARNING LIGHTS AND
MESSAGES ON THE
INSTRUMENT PANEL
The following pages consist of warning lights and
messages.
NOTE:
The warning light turns on together with a
dedicated message and/or chime when
applicable. These indications are precau -
tionary and as such must not be considered as
exhaustive and/or alternative to the information contained in the Owner’s Manual,
which you are advised to read carefully in all
cases. Always refer to the information in this
section in the event of a failure indication.
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 pushing the button located on
the windshield wiper stalk. The instrument
panel warning light will stay on until the cause
of the failure is eliminated.
RED WARNING LIGHTS
Air Bag Warning Light
This warning light will illuminate to
indicate a fault with the air bag, and will
turn on for four to eight seconds as a
bulb check when the ignition is placed
in the ON/RUN or ACC/ON/RUN position. This
light will illuminate with a single chime when a
fault with the air bag has been detected, it will
stay on until the fault is cleared. If the light is
either not on during startup, stays on, or turns on
while driving, have the system inspected at an
authorized dealer as soon as possible.
Brake Warning Light
This warning light monitors various
brake functions, including brake fluid
level and parking brake application. If
the brake light turns on it may indicate
that the parking brake is applied, that the brake
fluid level is low, or that there is a problem with
the Anti-Lock Brake System reservoir.
