Power Steering Failure
If the telltale remains on, you may not
have steering assistance and the effort
required to operate the steering wheel
may be increased; steering is, however,
possible.

NOTE:
After the battery is disconnected, the steering
wheel must be initialized. The Power Steering
Failure light on the instrument panel will illumi-
nate to indicate this. To carry out this procedure,
simply turn the steering wheel all the way from
one end to the other, and then turn it back to the
central position.
Contact an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Warning
Light
This warning light, along with the related
message, signals a failure in the ETC.
If a failure is detected, the warning light turns on
while the engine is running.
Place the gear selector in the PARK (P) position
and the ignition in the off position: the warning
light should switch off. If the warning light stays
on with engine running, the vehicle can still be
driven.
If the warning light flashes with the engine
running, immediate intervention is required. A
loss of performance, irregular/high idling speed
or engine stopping might take place and the
vehicle may need to be towed.
Contact an authorized dealer as soon as possible
to have the failure eliminated.
Engine Coolant Temperature Too High
The telltale lights up when the engine
has overheated.
In normal driving conditions : stop the car, turn 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, fill 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 authorized dealer if the
telltale 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 two or three 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.
Hood Cap Not Properly Shut
The telltale turns on when the hood cap
is not properly closed, along with the
icon, an image of the vehicle with an
open hood cap appears on the display.
A buzzer is heard when the hood cap is open and
the vehicle is moving.

sound when this telltale turns on. Do not operate
the vehicle until the cause is corrected. This
telltale does not indicate how much oil is in the
engine.

NOTE:
Do not use the vehicle until the failure has been
solved. The turning on of the telltale does not indi -
cate the amount of oil in the engine: the oil level
can be checked on the display upon entering the
vehicle and also by activating the “Oil level” func -
tion on the Information and Entertainment
System.
Contact an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
CAUTION!

Engine Oil Change Required — If Equipped

The telltale is illuminated only for a
limited time.

NOTE:
After the first indication, each time the engine is
started the symbol will continue to illuminate as
described above until the oil is changed.
If the telltale flashes, this does not mean that
there is a fault on the vehicle, rather it simply
reports that it is now necessary to change the oil
as a result of regular use of the vehicle. The
deterioration of engine oil is accelerated by using
the vehicle for short drives, preventing the engine
from reaching operating temperature.
Contact an authorized dealer as soon as
possible.
Engine Oil Pressure Sensor Failure
The telltale will illuminate in the event of
engine oil pressure sensor failure.
Contact an authorized dealer as soon as
possible.
Engine Oil Level Sensor Failure
The telltale will illuminate in the event of
engine oil level sensor failure.
Contact an authorized dealer as soon as
possible.

CAUTION!
Deteriorated engine oil should be replaced as
soon as possible after the symbol is switched
on, and never more than 500 miles (805 km)
after it first switches on. Failure to observe the
above may result in severe damage to the
engine and invalidate the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty. When this symbol comes on, it does
not mean that the level of engine oil is low, so
if it flashes you do not need to top up the
engine oil.

TRANSPORTING ANIMALS
The intervention of the airbags may be dangerous
for an animal on the front seat. It is therefore
advised to arrange animals on the rear seat
inside dedicated cages restrained by the
vehicle’s seat belts.
Keep in mind that, in the event of a sudden
braking or an accident, an inadequately
restrained animal may be projected within the
passenger compartment, risking injury to the
animal itself and the other occupants of the
vehicle.
EXHAUST GAS
Exhaust emissions are very dangerous, and may
be lethal. They contain carbon monoxide, a
colorless, odorless gas which can cause fainting
and poisoning if inhaled.
To avoid inhaling carbon monoxide, take the
following measures:
Do not keep the engine running in closed
spaces.
If, for some reason (e.g. transporting bulky
loads), it is necessary to drive with the trunk
open, close all the windows and run the
climate control fan at maximum speed. DO
NOT activate air recirculation mode.
Should it be necessary to stay in the stationary
vehicle with engine running, adjust the
ventilation/heating system and operate the
fan in such a way that outside air will enter the
passenger compartment. Activate the
maximum fan speed.Maintenance of the exhaust system provides the
best protection against leaks of carbon monoxide
into the passenger compartment.
Should an unusual noise from the exhaust
system or the presence of exhaust gas in the
passenger compartment be identified, or if the
underbody or rear section of the vehicle is
damaged, have the entire exhaust system and
bodywork areas checked to identify any
components which are broken, damaged, worn or
have moved from their correct fitting position. If
any of these things occur, contact an authorized
dealer.
Open welding or loose connections may permit
exhaust gas to enter the passenger
compartment.
Check the exhaust system each time the vehicle
is raised for lubrication or oil change operations.
Replace the components if necessary, contact an
authorized dealer.
PERFORMANCE — QUADRIFOGLIO
This vehicle is equipped with an engine capable
of delivering exceptionally fast acceleration and
speed:
Peak power: 505 HP at 6500 RPM.
Peak torque: 443 ft-lb at 2500–5000 RPM.
Top speed: 191 mph (307 km/h).

Acceleration from 0 to 60 mph (0 to 100 km/h):
3.8 seconds.

For safe driving, it is essential, particularly during
the first days of use, to get to know the car by
driving carefully and gradually discovering its
performance. Brakes
The car braking system may be available with four
carbon-ceramic material brake discs, one on
each wheel.
In order to guarantee the maximum braking
capacity for the first use, Alfa Romeo performs a
“run-in” procedure for discs and pads directly at
the factory.
The use of carbon-ceramic material brake discs
guarantees braking features (better
deceleration/pedal load ratio, braking distances,
fading resistance) proportional to the dynamic
features of the car in addition to considerably
decreasing the unsprung component weight.
The materials used and the structural features of
the system could generate unusual noises which
have absolutely no adverse effect on correct
operation and reliability of the braking system.
Greater pressure may need to be applied to the
brake pedal the first time to keep the same
braking capacities in presence of condensation
or salt on the braking surfaces, for example after
washing or if the car is not used for a long time.

NOTE:
Given the high technological level of this system,
any servicing on it must be performed by an
authorized dealer which exclusively has the skills
needed for the repair and maintenance opera
-
tions.
In case of intensive, high-performance use of the
car, have the efficiency of the carbon-ceramic
material braking system inspected as shown on
the Maintenance Plan at an authorized dealer.

 ALWAYS REMOVE THE EXISTING
FLOOR MAT FROM THE VEHICLE
before installing any other floor mat.
NEVER install or stack an additional
floor mat on top of an existing floor mat.
ONLY install floor mats designed to fit your
vehicle. NEVER install a floor mat that cannot
be properly attached and secured to your
vehicle. If a floor mat needs to be replaced,
only use a FCA approved floor mat for the
specific make, model, and year of your

ONLY use the passenger’s side floor mat on
the passenger’s side floor area.
ALWAYS make sure objects cannot fall or
slide into the driver’s side floor area when
the vehicle is moving. Objects can become
trapped under accelerator, brake, or clutch
pedals and could cause a loss of vehicle
control.
WARNING!
NEVER place any objects under the floor mat
(e.g., towels, keys, etc.). These objects could
change the position of the floor mat and may
cause interference with the accelerator,
brake, or clutch pedals.
If the vehicle carpet has been removed and
re-installed, always properly attach carpet to

It is recommended to only use mild soap and
water to clean your floor mats. After cleaning,
always check your floor mat has been
properly installed and is secured to your
vehicle using the floor mat fasteners by
lightly pulling mat.
WARNING!
WARNING!
Exhaust gases can injure or kill. They contain
carbon monoxide (CO), which is colorless and
odorless. Breathing it can make you
unconscious and can eventually poison you. To
avoid breathing (CO), follow these safety tips:
Do not run the engine in a closed garage or in
confined areas any longer than needed to
move your vehicle in or out of the area.
If you are required to drive with the trunk/
liftgate/rear doors open, make sure that all
windows are closed and the climate control
BLOWER switch is set at high speed. DO NOT
use the recirculation mode.
If it is necessary to sit in a parked vehicle with
the engine running, adjust your heating or
cooling controls to force outside air into the
vehicle. Set the blower at high speed.
