Let’s get to the core of the vehicle: seeing how you can exploit all
of its potential to the full.
We’ll look at how to drive it safely in any situation, so that it can be
a welcome companion, with our comfort and our wallets in mind.

“Dynamic”: gear changes at higher
engine speeds. It enhances sporty driving;
“Natural”: gear changes at low engine
speeds. It enhances comfort and reduces
consumption;
“All Weather”: driving programme on
roads with poor grip (e.g. snow, ice, mud,
etc.).
Gearshifting suggestion
With the transmission in automatic mode
(selector lever in position D), when
gearshifting is required by the paddles on
the steering wheel (for versions/markets,
where provided), the system shifts to
"Sequential mode", with relevant
displaying of the gear engaged, for about
5 second.
When this time has elapsed, if the
paddles are not operated anymore, the
system goes back to the automatic mode
(D), with following displaying.
SEQUENTIAL DRIVING MODE
In sequential driving mode, the
transmission works like a manual
gearbox.
Gearshifting through gear lever
Move the lever sideways (to the left)
from position D to the sequential
position:
lever towards "+": engage higher gear;
lever towards "-": engage lower gear.
The lever correct position in "Sequential
mode" is signalled when the symbols "+"
and "−" switch on and the symbol D
switches off on the display (the gear
engaged only is shown on the display).
Gearshifting through steering wheel
paddles
(for versions/markets, where provided)
27)
On some versions, the steering wheel
paddles fig. 64 can be used to change
gear in sequential mode or in D:
steering wheel paddle "+" (pulling
paddle towards driver fig. 64 ): engage
higher gear;
steering wheel paddle "-" (pulling
paddle towards driver fig. 64 ): engage
lower gear.
The engagement of a lower or higher gear
is only permitted if the engine revs allow
it.
If the car is stopped with a higher gear
than 1
stengaged, the transmission will
automatically engage 1stgear.
"Launch Control" Function
96)
The "Launch Control" strategy permits
high-performance starting.
With the car stationary, proceed as
follows to activate this function:
operate the “Alfa DNA” system and
activate the "Dynamic" driving mode;

depress the brake pedal with your left
foot and, simultaneously, fully depress
the accelerator pedal with your right
foot;
shift gear using the gear lever or the
steering wheel paddle "−" (pulling the
paddle towards the driver as previously
described): rpm are thus increased from
2750 to 4500; (1.4 Petrol versions) and
from 1700 to 2700 (2.0 JTD
Mversions)
and from 3000 to 3750 (1750 Turbo
petrol version);
release the brake pedal: in this way a
more "lively" start is achieved.
When the brake pedal is released, the car
will start with maximum acceleration.
Despite the "Sequential mode", the car
will autonomously shift the gear to
guarantee max. acceleration, once the
correct shifting speed has been reached.
To abandon the strategy, simply interrupt
the above sequence of operations or
release the accelerator pedal.
IMPORTANT
25)If the car is on a gradient, always engage
the electric parking brake BEFORE placing
the gear lever in P.
26)Engage reverse only with the car
stationary, engine at idling speed and
accelerator pedal fully released.27)Using the paddles incorrectly (paddles
pushed towards the dashboard ) could break
them.
28)It is advisable to contact an Alfa Romeo
Dealership to have the refitting procedure
carried out. If you would like to proceed
autonomously, special attention must be
paid to the correct coupling of the retaining
clips. Otherwise, noise might be heard due to
an incorrect fastening of the lower cover
with the upper cover.
WARNING
95)Never leave children unattended in the
car. Always remove the ignition key when
leaving the car and take the key with you.
96)While the Launch Control function is
being used, the ESC and ASR systems are
deactivated. This means that vehicle
dynamic control is the sole responsibility of
the driver. Therefore pay the utmost
attention when using the Launch Control.
Take into account traffic and road surface
conditions and during manoeuvres make
sure there is enough room in the area
concerned.
MANUAL TRANSMISSION
97)
29)
To engage the gears, press the clutch
pedal fully and put the gear lever
fig. 65 into the required position (the
diagram for gear engagement is shown
on the knob).
To engage the 6
thgear, operate the lever
by pressing it towards the right in order
to avoid engaging the 4th gear by
mistake. The same applies to the shift
from 6
thto 5thgear.
To engage reverse gear (R) from neutral,
lift up ring 1 fig. 65 and simultaneously
move the lever to the left and then
forwards.
IMPORTANT Reverse can only be
engaged when the car is completely
stationary.

FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption figures given in the tables below are determined on the basis of the type-approval tests laid down by specific
European Directives.
The following procedures are used to measure the fuel consumption:
urban cycle: cold starting followed by driving that simulates urban use of the car;
extra-urban cycle: frequent accelerating in all gears, simulating extra-urban use of the car: speed varies between 0 and 120 km/h;
combined fuel consumption: calculated with a weighting of approximately 37% of the urban cycle and 63% of the extra-urban
cycle.
IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic conditions, weather conditions, driving style, general condition of the car, trim
level/equipment/accessories, use of the climate control system, car load, presence of roof racks and other situations that adversely
affect the aerodynamics or wind resistance lead to different fuel consumption values than those measured.
