Daytime Running Lights
To activate the Daytime Running Lights (DRL), rotate
the end of the multifunction lever to theOsymbol.
NOTE: The low beams and side/tail lights will not be
on with DRL.
High Beams
With the low beams activated, pull the multi-
function lever towards the steering wheel to turn
on the high beams. A high beam symbol will illuminate
in the cluster to indicate the high beams are on. Pull the
multifunction lever a second time to switch the head-
lights back to low beam.
Flash-To-Pass
You can signal another vehicle with your headlights by
partially pulling the multifunction lever toward the
steering wheel. This will cause the high beam head-
lights to turn on until the lever is released.

or turn the ignition to OFF/LOCK position
and turn on the headlights.
Turn Signals
Move the multifunction lever up or down and the
arrows on each side of the instrument cluster display
will flash to show proper operation of the front and rear
turn signal lights.
NOTE: If either light remains on and does not flash, or
there is a very fast flash rate, check for a defective
outside light bulb. If an indicator fails to light when the
lever is moved, it would suggest that the indicator bulb
is defective.
Lane Change Assist

WARNING!
Do not adjust the steering column while driving.
Adjusting the steering column while driving or
driving with the steering column unlocked, could
cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
Failure to follow this warning may result in serious
injury or death.
ELECTRONIC SPEED CONTROL —
IF EQUIPPED
When engaged, the Electronic Speed Control takes over
accelerator operations at speeds greater than 18 mph
(30 km/h) up to the maximum speed of 105 mph
(170 km/h).
The Electronic Speed Control Lever is located on the left
side of the steering column.
NOTE:In order to ensure proper operation, the Elec-
tronic Speed Control system has been designed to shut
down if multiple speed control functions are operated
at the same time. If this occurs, the Electronic Speed
Control system can be reactivated rotating the end of
the multifunction lever (on/off) and resetting the de-
sired vehicle set speed.
To Activate
Rotate the end of the multifunction lever upward to the
first detent, indicated by the speed control icon, to
activate the Electronic Speed Control. The Cruise Indi-
cator Light in the instrument cluster display will illu-
minate. To turn the system off, rotate the end of the
multifunction lever to the “O” position. The Cruise
Indicator Light will turn off. The system should be
turned off when not in use.

If several obstacles are detected by the sensors, only the
nearest one is considered.
Indications On Display — If Equipped
When the sensors are activated, the screen appears on
the instrument cluster display.
Obstacle presence and distance information is therefore
provided both by the acoustic signal and the instrument
cluster display.
The system indicates a detected obstacle by displaying
an arc in one or more positions according to the distance
of the obstacle and its position in relation to the vehicle.If an obstacle is detected in the rear central area, the
instrument cluster display shows all the arcs in the rear
central area, up to the one that corresponds to the
position of the obstacle itself.
The signal is similar for obstacles in the rear left or right
area.
The arc that corresponds to the position of the obstacle
will flash.
The color on the instrument cluster display depends on
the distance from and position of the obstacle.
The vehicle is close to the obstacle when the instrument
cluster display shows a single constant arc and emits a
continuous sound.
If there are several obstacles, the closest one is indi-
cated.
Fault Indication
Parking sensor failures, if any, will be indicated when
reverse is engaged by the switching on of the
warn-
ing light in the instrument cluster display.

1. Temperature Gauge•The temperature gauge shows engine coolant tem-
perature. Any reading within the normal range
indicates that the engine cooling system is operat-
ing satisfactorily.
• The digital gauge will likely indicate a higher
temperature when driving in hot weather, or up
mountain grades. It should not be allowed to
exceed the upper limits of the normal operating
range.
NOTE: Driving with a hot engine cooling system could
damage your vehicle. The digital warning light may
switch on (together with a message on the display) to
indicate that the coolant temperature is too high; in this
case, stop the engine and contact a dedicated autho-
rized dealership.WARNING!
A hot engine cooling system is dangerous. You or
others could be badly burned by steam or boiling
coolant. You may want to call an authorized dealer
for service if your vehicle overheats. If you decide
to look under the hood yourself, see “Maintaining
Your Vehicle.” Follow the warnings under the Cool-
ing System Pressure Cap paragraph.
2. Tachometer •This gauge measures engine revolutions per min-
ute (RPM x 1000). Before the pointer reaches the red
area, ease up on the accelerator to prevent engine
damage.
3. Speedometer •Indicates vehicle speed.
4. Fuel Gauge •The digital display shows the amount of fuel in the
tank.
•
The switching on of the digital warning light indi-
cates that 1 – 1.3 gallons of fuel are left in the tank; in
this situation, refuel as soon as possible.

•Do not travel with the fuel tank almost empty; any
gaps in fuel delivery could damage the catalytic
converter.
•
The fuel pump symbol points to the side of
the vehicle where the fuel door is located.
5. “Alfa DNA” Driving Mode Indicator
•This area of the cluster displays which driving
mode the vehicle is currently in. A letter (d, n, or a)
corresponding to the active driving mode (dynamic
or race, natural, all weather) and a dedicated mes-
sage is shown on the display.
WARNING AND INDICATOR LIGHTS
IMPORTANT: The warning / indicator lights switch on
in the instrument panel together with a dedicated
message and/or acoustic signal when applicable. These
indications are indicative and precautionary 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 chapter in
the event of a failure indication.
All active telltales will display first if applicable. The
system check menu may appear different based upon
equipment options and current vehicle status. Some
telltales are optional and may not appear.
