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.

ENGINE OIL TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The digital indicator monitors the temperature of
the engine oil and starts supplying indications
when the oil temperature reaches approximately
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.

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 ("– –. –").

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.
