WARNING
48) When replacing the battery,
always contact an Alfa Romeo
Dealership. The replacement
battery should be of the same
type (HEAVY DUTY) and should
have the same characteristics.
49) Before opening the bonnet,
make sure that the engine is off
and that the ignition key is in
the STOP position. Follow the
instructions on the dedicated
label on the front crossmember
(fig. 85). We recommend that you
remove the key from the ignition if
other people remain in the car.
The car should always be left after
the key has been removed or
turned to the STOP position.
During refuelling, make sure that
the engine is off (and that the
ignition key is in the STOP
position).
iTPMS (indirect Tyre
Pressure
Monitoring System)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
DESCRIPTION
The car can be equipped with the
iTPMS (indirect Tyre Pressure
Monitoring System) which monitors the
tyre inflation status thanks to wheel
speed sensors.
The system warns the driver if one or
more tyres are flat by the dedicated
warning light
continuously on and a
warning message on the display.
If one tyre only is flat, the system can
indicate its position: it is anyway
recommended to check the pressure
on all four tyres.
This indication is displayed also when
turning the engine off and on again until
the RESET procedure is carried out.
RESET PROCEDURE
The iTPMS system needs an initial
"self-learning" phase (with length
depending on the driving style and road
conditions: optimal conditions being
RESET procedure is carried out.❒whenever the tyre pressure is
modified;
❒when even only one tyre is changed;
❒when tyres are rotated/inverted;
❒when the space-saver wheel is fitted.
Before carrying out the RESET, inflate
the tyres to the rated pressure values
specified in the inflation pressure table
(see "Wheels" paragraph in the
"Technical specifications" section).
If the RESET is not carried out, in all
above cases, the warning lightmay
give false indications on one or more
tyres.
To carry out the RESET, with the car
stopped and the ignition key at
MAR-ON, press the button
fig. 86 on
the dashboard for 2 seconds; after
the RESET, the display shows a
dedicated message, indicating that the
"self-learning" has started.

POSITIONS OF THE
LEVER
Park (P)
Position P corresponds to the neutral
position of the transmission and locks
drive wheels mechanically.
It should only be engaged with the car
stationary and the handbrake should be
applied, if necessary.
With the ignition key at MAR-ON or with
engine running, or when the engine
switches off, if the gear lever is not
correctly positioned in P, letter P starts
flashing on the gear lever trim.
In this case, move the lever correctly to
position P.
21)
The ignition key can be removed only
when the lever is in position P. Moving
the lever from P to D must be
performed only when the car is
stationary and the engine at idling
speed.
Shifting from P to any other position of
the selector lever, with ignition key in
MAR-ON position, must be made
pressing the brake pedal and using the
button on the gear lever (see paragraph
"Selector lever").
If the battery is flat, to release the lever
you need to remove the gaiter and
operate the lever A fig. 132.IMPORTANT NEVER leave the car
before having positioned the selector
lever in P.
Reverse (R)
The engine cannot be started with the
lever in position R.
Shifting from R to N or D is free, while
shifting from R to P can be made by the
button on the gear lever, with engine
at idling speed.
22)
Neutral (N)
It corresponds to neutral for a standard
manual gearbox. The engine can be
started with the lever in position N.
Engage N in case of prolonged stops.
To move the lever from position N,
release the accelerator and make sure
the engine is stable at idling speed.Shifting from N to D is free, while
shifting from N to R or P can only be
made by the button on the gear lever.
Drive (D) - Automatic
forward gear
It is the lever position in standard
running conditions.
Shifting from D to N is free, while
shifting from D to R or P can only be
made by the button on the gear lever.
Sequential mode (+ / –)
Shifting the lever from position D on
side in stable position, the transmission
is used in sequential mode.
Shifting the lever in unstable position (+
or −) gears are changed.
Important information
IMPORTANT All movements of the gear
lever must be performed with car
stationary and engine idling only.
The drive wheels are mechanically
locked in position P.
Shifting from P to R is possible with
brake pedal pressed and button on
gear lever pressed.
Shifting from R to N and from N to D is
