Gear Selector
The gear selector is a joystick style shifting
mechanism which returns to the center position
automatically. It can be pushed forward twice and
rearward twice, based on the starting condition.
The PARK (P) mode can be enabled/disabled by
pushing the PARK (P) button.
To transition the vehicle into REVERSE (R) mode
from DRIVE (D) mode, or into DRIVE (D) mode
from REVERSE (R) mode, it is necessary to move
the gear selector by pushing the gear selector
button.
When using AutoStick to change gears, move the
gear selector left from DRIVE (D) and then
forward toward the - symbol or backward toward
the + symbol and the gear is changed.
To shift out of PARK (P), or to pass from position
NEUTRAL (N) to position DRIVE (D) or REVERSE
(R), the vehicle must be moving at a low speed or
stopped, and the brake pedal must also be
pressed.

NOTE:

DO NOT accelerate while shifting from position
PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N) to another position.
After selecting a gear, wait a few seconds
before accelerating. This precaution is partic -
ularly important with a cold engine.
TRANSMISSION OPERATING MODES
PARK (P)
The transmission is locked in this mode. The
engine can be started in this mode.

NOTE:
Never try to engage PARK (P) mode when the
vehicle is moving. Before leaving the vehicle,
make sure this mode is engaged (letter P shown
on the display and gear selector) and that the
parking brake is engaged.
When parking on a flat surface, first engage the
PARK (P) mode and then engage the Electric Park
Brake.
When parking uphill, before activating the PARK
(P) mode, engage the Electric Park Brake.
Otherwise, it could be difficult to engage the
PARK (P) mode.
To check that the PARK (P) mode is actually
engaged, make sure “P” is illuminated on the
display and on the gear selector.
3 — Gear Selector Button
WARNING!
Never use the PARK position as a substitute
for the parking brake. Always apply the
parking brake fully when parked to guard
against vehicle movement and possible
injury or damage.
Your vehicle could move and injure you and
others if it is not in PARK. Check by trying to
move the gear selector out of PARK with the
brake pedal released. Make sure the
transmission is in PARK before leaving the
vehicle.
It is dangerous to shift out of PARK or
NEUTRAL if the engine speed is higher than
idle speed. If your foot is not firmly pressing
the brake pedal, the vehicle could accelerate
quickly forward or in reverse. You could lose
control of the vehicle and hit someone or
something. Only shift into gear when the
engine is idling normally and your foot is
firmly pressing the brake pedal.
Unintended movement of a vehicle could
injure those in or near the vehicle. As with all
vehicles, you should never exit a vehicle
while the engine is running. Before exiting a
vehicle, always apply the parking brake, shift
the transmission into PARK, and turn the
ignition STOP/OFF. When the ignition is in the
STOP/OFF position, the transmission is
locked in PARK, securing the vehicle against
unwanted movement.
When leaving the vehicle, always make sure
the ignition is in the STOP/OFF position,
remove the key fob from the vehicle, and lock
the vehicle.
WARNING!
23_GA_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 88

REVERSE (R)
Select this mode only with the vehicle at a
standstill.
NEUTRAL (N)
Use this range when the vehicle is standing for
prolonged periods with the engine running. The
engine may be started in this range. Apply the Electric Park Brake and shift the transmission
into PARK (P) if you must leave the vehicle.
DRIVE (D)
Use this mode in normal driving conditions.
Shifting from DRIVE (D) to PARK (P) or REVERSE
(R) modes must take place only after releasing
the accelerator pedal, with vehicle at a standstill
and brake pedal pressed.
This mode ensures automatic engagement of the
most suitable gears for driving needs and
maximum fuel economy in terms of consumption.
In this position, the transmission shifts the gears
automatically, selecting the most suitable for
forward driving among those available as you go.
This ensures the vehicle's optimal driving charac
-
teristics are provided for all conditions.
AutoStick
In the case of frequent shifting (e.g. for sport
driving, when the vehicle is driven with a heavy
load or on slopes), it is recommended to use the
AutoStick (sequential shifting) mode to select and
keep a lower fixed ratio.
In these conditions, the use of a lower gear
improves vehicle performance, preventing
overheating. It is possible to shift from DRIVE (D) mode to
sequential mode regardless of vehicle speed.
Activation
Starting from DRIVE (D), move the selector to the
left (– and + indication of the trim) to activate the
sequential drive mode. The gear engaged will be
shown on the display.
Shifting is made by moving the gear selector
forwards, towards symbol – or backwards,
towards symbol +.
Steering Wheel Shift Paddles — If Equipped
The gear can also be manually shifted by using
the paddles behind the steering wheel. Pull the
right paddle (+) toward the steering wheel and
release it to engage a higher gear, and perform
the same operation with the left paddle (-) to
engage a lower gear.
Steering Wheel Shift Paddles

NOTE:
If only one manual shift is necessary, the letter
“D” will remain on the display with the engaged
gear next to it.
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or
with access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing
children to be in a vehicle unattended is
dangerous for a number of reasons. A child
or others could be seriously or fatally injured.
Children should be warned not to touch the
parking brake, brake pedal or the
transmission gear selector.
Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle
(or in a location accessible to children), and
do not leave the ignition in the ON position. A
child could operate power windows, other
controls, or move the vehicle.
CAUTION!
Before moving the transmission gear
selector out of PARK, you must push the
ignition button to cycle from STOP/OFF
position to the ON position, and also press
the brake pedal. Otherwise, damage to the
gear selector could result.
DO NOT race the engine when shifting from
PARK or NEUTRAL into another gear range,
as this can damage the drivetrain.
WARNING!
WARNING!
Do not coast in NEUTRAL and never turn off
the ignition to coast down a hill. These are
unsafe practices that limit your response to
changing traffic or road conditions. You might
lose control of the vehicle and have a collision.

Deactivation
To deactivate the sequential driving mode, bring
the gear selector back in position DRIVE (D)
(“automatic” driving mode).

NOTE:

To select the correct gear for maximum
deceleration (engine brake), just keep the gear
paddle pulled (–): the transmission goes to an
operating mode in which the vehicle can slow
down easily.
The vehicle will keep the gear selected by the
driver until the safety conditions allow it.
This means, for example, that the system will
try to prevent the engine from switching off,
automatically downshifting if the engine speed
is too low.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION LIMP HOME
M
ODE
Transmission function is monitored electronically
for abnormal conditions. If a condition is detected
that could result in transmission damage,
Transmission Limp Home Mode is activated.
In this condition, the transmission stays in
FOURTH gear, regardless of the selected gear.
Positions PARK (P), REVERSE (R) and NEUTRAL
(N) still work. The symbol might light up in the instrument
cluster.
Temporary failure
In the event of a momentary problem, the
transmission can be reset to regain all forward
gears by performing the following steps:
1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Shift the transmission into PARK (P), if
possible. If not, shift the transmission to
NEUTRAL (N).
3. Push and hold the ignition until the engine turns off.
4. Wait for about 10 seconds, then restart the engine.
5. Shift into the desired gear range. If the problem is no longer detected, the transmis -
sion will return to normal operation.

NOTE:
Even if the transmission can be reset, we recom -
mend that you visit an authorized dealer at your
earliest possible convenience. An authorized
dealer has diagnostic equipment to determine if
the problem could reoccur. If the transmission
cannot be reset, service is required at an autho -
rized dealer.
BRAKE/TRANSMISSION SHIFT INTERLOCK
(BTSI) S
YSTEM
This vehicle is equipped with a BTSI system that
holds the gear selector in PARK (P) unless the
brakes are applied.
This system prevents you from moving the gear
selector from position PARK (P) unless the brakes
are applied. To shift the transmission out of PARK (P), the
ignition must be placed in the ON/RUN position
(engine running or not) and the brake pedal must
be pressed.
Brake/Transmission Shift Interlock Disabling
Only if strictly necessary (e.g. pushing the vehicle,
conveyor vehicle washing systems), place the
vehicle in the NEUTRAL (N) position when
stopping the engine. See the following steps:
1. Vehicle at a standstill.
2. NEUTRAL (N) mode activated.
3. Push the ignition button for at least three
seconds.
The automatic parking brake engagement
function when the engine is stopped can also be
deactivated on the Information and
Entertainment system by selecting the following
functions on the main menu: “Settings”, “Driver
Assistance” and “Automatic Parking Brake”.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Failure to comply with the following may damage
the transmission:
Shift into PARK (P) mode only with the vehicle
at a standstill.
Select REVERSE (R) mode, or pass from
REVERSE to another mode only with the
vehicle at a standstill and engine idling.
Do not change between PARK (P), REVERSE
(R), NEUTRAL (N) or DRIVE (D) modes with
engine running at a speed above idling.
Before activating any transmission operating
mode, fully press the brake pedal.
WARNING!
Do not downshift for additional engine braking
on a slippery surface. The drive wheels could
lose their grip and the vehicle could skid,
causing a collision or personal injury.

ALFA DNA / PRO SELECTOR
ALFA DNA SYSTEM
This vehicle is equipped with an Alfa DNA system
selector (located on the center console). There
are four modes of operation to be selected
according to driving style and road conditions:Alfa DNA System Selector
d = Dynamic (sports driving mode).
n = Natural (mode for driving in normal
conditions).
a = Advanced Efficiency (ECO driving mode for
maximum fuel savings).
RACE = track race driving mode (if equipped).
 = Adjusts the calibration of the active
suspension (Quadrifoglio only).
Unlike the other modes, there is no detent for the
RACE position. When the system selector is
rotated to the RACE position, it will return to its
initial position "d".
WARNING!
It is dangerous to shift out of PARK or
NEUTRAL if the engine speed is higher than
idle speed. If your foot is not firmly pressing
the brake pedal, the vehicle could accelerate
quickly forward or in reverse. You could lose
control of the vehicle and hit someone or
something. Only shift into gear when the
engine is idling normally and your foot is
firmly pressing the brake pedal.
Unintended movement of a vehicle could
injure those in or near the vehicle. As with all
vehicles, you should never exit a vehicle
while the engine is running. Before exiting a
vehicle, always apply the parking brake, shift
the transmission into PARK, and turn the
ignition OFF. When the ignition is in the OFF
position, the transmission is locked in PARK,
securing the vehicle against unwanted
movement.
When leaving the vehicle, always make sure
the ignition is in the OFF position, remove the
key fob from the vehicle, and lock the
vehicle.
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or
with access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing
children to be in a vehicle unattended is
dangerous for a number of reasons. A child
or others could be seriously or fatally injured.
Children should be warned not to touch the
parking brake, brake pedal or the
transmission gear selector.
Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle
(or in a location accessible to children), and
do not leave the ignition in the ON/RUN or
ACC position. A child could operate power
windows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
CAUTION!
Only engage the gear with engine at idling
while fully pressing the brake pedal. If the
transmission temperature exceeds the
normal operating limits, the transmission
control unit may change the gear
engagement order and reduce the drive
torque. If the transmission overheats, it
could operate incorrectly until it cools down.
When using the vehicle with extremely low
external temperatures, the transmission
operation may change depending on the
engine and transmission temperature, as
well as vehicle speed. Activation of the
torque converter clutch and of the EIGHTH
gear is inhibited until the transmission oil is
correctly warmed up. Complete operation of
the transmission will be enabled as soon as
the fluid temperature reaches the
predefined value.

ENGINE RESTARTING CONDITIONS
Due to comfort, emission control and safety
reasons, the engine can restart automatically
without any action by the driver, under special
conditions, such as:
Battery not sufficiently charged.
Vehicle moving (e.g. when driving on roads
with a grade).
Engine stopping by the Stop/Start system for
more than approximately three minutes.
With the automatic climate control active, an
adjustment in cabin heating or cooling is made
or with MAX-DEF function active.
SAFETY FUNCTIONS
When the engine is stopped through the Stop/
Start system, if the driver releases their seat belt,
opens the driver's or passenger's door, or opens
the hood from inside the vehicle, the engine can
be restarted only by using the ignition.
This condition is indicated to the driver both
through a buzzer and a message on the
instrument cluster display.
IRREGULAR OPERATION
In the event of malfunction, the Stop/Start
system is deactivated.
For further information on failure indications

VEHICLE INACTIVITY
In the event of vehicle inactivity (or if the battery
is replaced), special attention must be paid to the
disconnection of the battery power supply.
Proceed as follows:
Remove connector from socket to disconnect
sensor (battery status monitoring) installed on
the negative pole of the battery. This sensor
should never be disconnected from the pole
except if the battery is replaced.Battery Power Supply

NOTE:
After setting the ignition to OFF and having closed
the driver side door, wait at least one minute
before disconnecting the electrical supply from
the battery. When reconnecting the electrical
supply to the battery, make sure that the ignition
is in the OFF position and the driver side door is
closed.
SPEED LIMITER
DESCRIPTION
This feature allows the driver to program the
maximum speed of the vehicle.

NOTE:
The maximum set speed can be exceeded by
continuing to press the accelerator pedal.
The maximum speed can be set with the vehicle
stationary or in motion. The minimum speed that
can be set is 18 mph (30 km/h).
When this feature is active, the vehicle speed
depends on the pressing of the accelerator pedal
until the programmed speed limit is reached

If needed (when overtaking for instance), you can
accelerate beyond the set speed by pressing the
accelerator. When you release the pedal, the
vehicle will return to the previously set speed.
When traveling downhill with the system active,
the vehicle speed may slightly exceed the set one.

NOTE:
Before pushing the SET switch, the vehicle must
be traveling at a constant speed on a flat surface.
To Vary The Speed Setting
To Increase Or Decrease The Set Speed
When the Cruise Control is set, you can increase
the speed by pushing the SET switch upward or
decrease the speed by pushing the SET switch
downward.
U.S. Speed (mph)
Pushing the SET switch once will result in a
1 mph speed adjustment. Each subsequent
movement of the switch results in an
adjustment of 1 mph.
If the switch is continually pushed, the set
speed will continue to adjust until the switch is
released, then the new set speed will be
established.
Metric Speed (km/h)
Pushing the SET switch once will result in a
1 km/h speed adjustment. Each subsequent
movement of the switch results in an
adjustment of 1 km/h.
If the switch is continually pushed, the set
speed will continue to adjust until the switch is
released, then the new set speed will be
established.

NOTE:
Moving the SET switch allows for adjusting of the
speed according to the selected unit of measure -
ment set on the radio system. Refer to the Infor -
mation and Entertainment System Owner’s
Manual for more information.
To Accelerate For Passing
While the Cruise Control is set, press the
accelerator to pass as you would normally. When
the pedal is released, the vehicle will return to the
set speed.
Using Cruise Control On Hills
The transmission may downshift on hills to
maintain the vehicle set speed.
The Cruise Control system maintains speed up
and down hills. A slight speed change on
moderate hills is normal. On steep hills, a greater
speed loss or gain may occur so it may be
preferable to drive without Cruise Control.
To Resume Speed
To resume a previously set speed, push the RES
button and release. Resume can be used at any
speed above 20 mph (32 km/h).

NOTE:
Before resuming the previously set speed, you
must accelerate to a speed close to that speed.
Resume Button Location
In AutoStick (sequential) mode, before resuming
the previously set speed, you should accelerate
until you are close to that speed. Then, push and
release the RES button.
To Deactivate
A tap on the brake pedal deactivates the Cruise
Control without deleting the set speed.
The Cruise Control may also be deactivated by
applying the Electric Park Brake or when the
braking system is operated (e.g. operation of the
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system).
The set speed is deleted in the following cases:
Pushing the on/off button a second time
The ignition is placed in the OFF position
If there is a malfunction with the Cruise Control
WARNING!
Cruise Control can be dangerous where the
system cannot maintain a constant speed.
Your vehicle could go too fast for the
conditions, and you could lose control and
have an accident. Do not use Cruise Control in
heavy traffic or on roads that are winding, icy,
snow-covered or slippery.

Overtake Aid

When driving with ACC engaged and following a
vehicle at a speed greater than 45 mph (70 km/h),
the system will provide an additional acceleration
up to the ACC set speed to assist in passing the
vehicle. This additional acceleration is triggered
when the driver utilizes the left turn signal and will
only be active when passing on the left hand side.

The system detects the direction of traffic
automatically when the vehicle passes from left
hand traffic to right hand traffic. In this case, the
overtaking assist function is only active when the
reference vehicle is overtaken on the right. The
additional acceleration is deactivated when the
driver uses the right direction indicator and
returns to the original lane.
Stop And Go Function
The Stop and Go operating strategy allows you to
maintain a safe distance from the vehicle ahead
until the vehicle has completely stopped.
In the event that the ACC system brings your
vehicle to a standstill while following the vehicle
in front, if the vehicle in front starts moving within
two seconds of your vehicle coming to a
standstill, your vehicle will resume motion
without the need for any driver action.If the vehicle in front does not start moving within
two seconds of your vehicle coming to a
standstill, the driver will have to push the RES/
SET switch upward to restart.
Deactivation
The system is deactivated and the set speed is
canceled if:
The on/off button is pushed (when the system
is on or paused)
The ignition is placed in the OFF position
RACE mode is activated (Quadrifoglio models)
The system is canceled (the set speed and
distance are stored):
When the system is paused
Ú
page 101
When the conditions shown in the “Activating
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)” section occur

Ú
page 101
Limited Operation Warning
If the dedicated message is shown on the display,
a condition limiting the Adaptive Cruise Control
operation may have occurred. This could be due to an obstruction of the
vehicle’s sensor or camera. It could also be due
to a fault in the system. If an obstruction is
detected, clean the area of the windshield
opposite the interior rearview mirror, where the
camera is located, as well as the area of the front
bumper where the sensor is located. Then check
that the message has disappeared.
When the conditions limiting the system
functions end, normal operation will resume.
Should the fault persist, contact an authorized
dealer.
Precautions While Driving With ACC
In certain driving situations, ACC may have
detection issues. In these cases, ACC may brake
late or unexpectedly. The driver needs to stay
alert and may need to intervene. The following
are examples of these types of situations:
Offset Driving
ACC may not detect a vehicle in the same lane
that is offset from your direct line of travel, or a
vehicle merging in from a side lane. There may
not be sufficient distance to the vehicle ahead.
The offset vehicle may move in and out of the line
of travel, which can cause your vehicle to brake or
accelerate unexpectedly.
Turns And Bends
When driving on a curve with ACC engaged, the
system may increase or decrease the vehicle
speed for stability, with no vehicle ahead
detected. Once the vehicle is out of the curve the
system will resume your original set speed. This is
a part of normal ACC system functionality.
The driver is fully responsible for holding a
safe distance from the vehicle ahead
respecting the highway code in force in the
respective country.
WARNING!
WARNING!
When the ACC system is resumed, the driver
must ensure that there are no pedestrians,
vehicles or objects in the path of the vehicle.
Failure to follow these warnings can result in a
collision and death or serious personal injury.
23_GA_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 104

117

If several obstacles are detected simultaneously
in the front and rear area, the display will show all
of them, regardless of the area in which they were
detected.
It is not possible to exit from the display screen
while the vehicle is in REVERSE.
Acoustic Signal
In the presence of an obstacle at the front or the
rear of the vehicle, an acoustic signal with
variable frequency will sound:
The acoustic signal increases in frequency as
the distance between the vehicle and the
obstacle decreases.
The acoustic signal becomes continuous when
the distance between the vehicle and the
obstacle is less than 11 inches (30 cm), and
stops if the distance increases.
The acoustic signal is constant if the distance
between the vehicle and the obstacle is
unchanged.

NOTE:
If the sensors detect several front and rear obsta-
cles, the closest obstacle is considered. An inter -
mittent signal will sound if the obstacles are at
the same distance (front and rear).
When the system emits an acoustic signal, the
volume of the radio system, if activated, is
automatically lowered.
An acoustic signal will not sound if the vehicle is
in PARK.
ENABLING AND DISABLING PARKSENSE
For vehicles only equipped with rear sensors, to
turn the system off, push the ParkSense button
located to the left of the headlight switch. The
indicator light within the button will illuminate
when the system is turned off. Pushing the button
a second time will turn the system back on, and
the indicator light will turn off.
ParkSense On/Off Switch
For vehicles equipped with front and rear
sensors, to turn the front parking sensors off,
push the ParkSense button located to the left of
the headlight switch. The indicator light within the
switch will illuminate when the system is turned
off. Pushing the button a second time will turn the
front sensors back on, and the indicator light will
turn off.

NOTE:
Deactivation of both the front and rear parking
sensors can only be done through the radio
system. The indicator light within the ParkSense system
switch will also be on in case of system failure. If
the switch is pushed with a system failure, the
indicator light will flash for approximately five
seconds. The light will then stay on constantly.

NOTE:
When the ignition is placed in the ON/RUN posi
-
tion, the ParkSense system keeps the last state
when the engine was stopped (activated or deac -
tivated) in its memory.
PARKSENSE WARNING DISPLAY
Parking sensor faults, if any, will be indicated
when REVERSE is engaged by a message on the
instrument cluster display

Ú
page 70.
In case of system failure, a dedicated message
appears on the instrument cluster for about five
seconds.
Cleaning The Front Or Rear Sensors : If the
display shows a message requiring the
sensors to be cleaned, make sure that the
outer surface and the underside of the front
and rear fascias/bumpers are free of debris
(e.g. snow, mud, ice, etc.). Once these areas
are clear, place the ignition in the OFF position,
then return it to ON/RUN. If the message is still
displayed, contact an authorized dealer.
Audio System Not Available : If the display
shows a message that the audio system is not
available, it means that the acoustic signal will
be emitted by the instrument panel, and not
through the vehicle’s speakers.
