driver’s side door trim panel, near the door 
handle. The switch consists of three buttons, one 
for each memory profile. Memory Setting Switch Location
PROGRAMMING THE MEMORY FEATURE
To create a new memory profile, perform the 
following:
1. Place the vehicle’s ignition in the ACC posi
-
tion (do not start the engine), and make sure 
the driver’s door is closed.
NOTE:
A memory profile can also be set for three 
minutes after the driver’s door has been opened.
2. Adjust all memory profile settings to desired  preferences, driver’s seat and mirror posi -
tions.
3. Push and hold the memory button you want  to program for 1.5 seconds. A chime will 
sound to indicate that the memory profile has 
been saved successfully.
NOTE:
When a new profile as been set, the previously 
set profile for that button will be overwritten.
 WARNING!
Persons who are unable to feel pain to the 
skin because of advanced age, chronic 
illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury, 
medication, alcohol use, exhaustion, or other 
physical conditions must exercise care when 
using the steering wheel heater. It may cause 
burns even at low temperatures, especially if 
used for long periods.
Do not place anything on the steering wheel 
that insulates against heat, such as a 
blanket or steering wheel covers of any type 
and material. This may cause the steering 
wheel heater to overheat.

Manual Seat Adjustment
Adjusting The Seat Forward Or Rearward
The adjustment lever is at the front of the seat, 
near the floor. Pull the bar upward to move the 
seat forward or rearward. Release the bar once 
the seat is in the desired position. Using body 
pressure, move forward and rearward on the seat 
to be sure that the seat adjusters have latched.
Adjusting The Seat Up Or Down
Push the height adjustment button upward or 
downward to obtain your desired height.
Reclining The Seatback 
To adjust the seatback, lift the recline lever 
located on the outboard side of the seat, lean 
back to the desired position and release the 
lever. To return the seatback, lift the lever, lean 
forward and release the lever.
 WARNING!
It is dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside 
or outside of a vehicle. In a collision, people 
riding in these areas are more likely to be 
seriously injured or killed.
Do not allow people to ride in any area of 
your vehicle that is not equipped with seats 
and seat belts. In a collision, people riding in 
these areas are more likely to be seriously 
injured or killed.
Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat 
and using a seat belt properly.

2 — Height Adjustment Button
3 — Recline Lever
 WARNING!
Adjusting a seat while driving may be 
dangerous. Moving a seat while driving could 
result in loss of control which could cause a 
collision and serious injury or death.
Seats should be adjusted before fastening 
the seat belts and while the vehicle is 
parked. Serious injury or death could result 
from a poorly adjusted seat belt.
Do not ride with the seatback reclined so 
that the shoulder belt is no longer resting 
against your chest. In a collision you could 
slide under the seat belt, which could result 
in serious injury or death.
 CAUTION!
Do not place any article under a power seat or 
impede its ability to move as it may cause 
damage to the seat controls. Seat travel may 
become limited if movement is stopped by an 
obstruction in the seat's path.

When the front seat belts are fastened
The "Alfa DNA Pro" selector is not in RACE 
position (if equipped)
NOTE:
If the seat belts of the front seats are not correctly 
fastened, the system will not intervene on the 
braking system (only audible and visual signals 
will be provided).
Changing The System Sensitivity
The sensitivity of the system can be changed 
through the Information and Entertainment 
system menu, choosing from one of the following 
three options: "Near", "Medium" or "Far". Refer to 
the description in the Information and 
Entertainment system Supplement for how to 
change the settings.
The default setting is "Medium". With this setting, 
the system warns the driver of a possible collision 
with the vehicle in front when that vehicle is at a 
standard distance, between that of the other two 
settings.
With the system sensitivity set to "Far", the 
system will warn the driver of a possible collision 
with the vehicle in front when that vehicle is at a 
greater distance, thus providing the possibility of 
acting on the brakes more lightly and gradually. 
This setting provides the driver with the maximum 
possible reaction time to prevent a potential 
collision.
NOTE:
The “Far” setting may result in a greater number 
of FCW possible collision warnings experienced.
With the option set to "Near", the system will alert 
the driver of a possible collision with the vehicle 
in front when that vehicle is close. This setting 
offers the driver a lower reaction time compared to the "Medium" and "Far" settings, in the event of 
a potential collision, but permits more dynamic 
driving of the vehicle.
NOTE:
The “Near” setting may result in a lesser number 
of FCW possible collision warnings experienced.
The system sensitivity setting is kept in the 
memory when the engine is turned off.
System Limited Operation Warning
If a dedicated message is displayed, a condition 
limiting the system operation may have occurred. 
The possible reasons of this limitation are 
something is blocking the camera view or a fault.
If an obstruction is signaled, clean the area of the 
radar on the front fascia/bumper, and the 
camera area on the windshield.
If a fault in the system is occurring, it will still be 
possible to drive the vehicle normally, but 
automatic braking will not be available in the 
event of an impending collision.
When the conditions limiting the system 
functions end, this will go back to normal and 
complete operation. Should the fault persist, 
contact an authorized dealer.
System Failure Signaling
If the system turns off and a dedicated message 
is shown on the display, it means that there is a 
fault with the system.
In this case, it is still possible to drive the vehicle, 
but you are advised to contact an authorized 
dealer as soon as possible.
Radar Indication Not Available
If conditions are such that the radar cannot 
detect obstacles correctly, the system is 
deactivated and a dedicated message appears on the display. This generally occurs in the event 
of poor visibility, such as when it is snowing or 
raining heavily.
The function of this system can also be 
temporarily reduced due to obstructions such as 
mud, dirt or ice on the fascia/bumper. In such 
cases, a dedicated message will be shown on the 
display and the system will be deactivated. This 
message can sometimes appear in conditions of 
high reflectivity (e.g. tunnels with reflective tiles or 
ice or snow). When the conditions limiting the 
system functions end, it will go back to normal 
and complete operation.
In certain cases, this dedicated message could 
be displayed when the radar is not detecting any 
vehicles or objects within its view range.
If atmospheric conditions are not the reason 
behind this message, check if the sensor is dirty. 
It could be necessary to clean or remove any 
obstructions in the area.
If the message appears frequently, even in the 
absence of atmospheric conditions such as snow, 
rain, mud or other obstructions, contact an 
authorized dealer for a sensor alignment check.
In the absence of visible obstructions, manually 
removing the decorative cover trim and cleaning 
the radar surface could be required. Have this 
operation performed at an authorized dealer.
NOTE:
It is recommended that you do not install devices, 
accessories or aerodynamic attachments in front 
of the sensor or darken it in any way, as this can 
compromise the correct functioning of the 
system.
