Right direction indicator
(green)
The warning light switches on when the direction indicator stalk is
moved upwards or when the hazard warning light button is pressed.
Tyre pressure low
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This warning light (or symbol on the display) switches on (on some
versions together with a message on the display) (together with an
acoustic signal) if the pressure in one or more tyres drops below a
preset threshold.
In this way the TPMS warns the driver that one or more tyres may be
dangerously flat and liable to puncture.
IMPORTANT Do not continue driving with one or more flat tyres as
handling may be compromised. Stop the car, avoiding sharp braking
and steering. Replace the wheel immediately with the space-saver
wheel (for versions/markets, where provided) or carry out an
immediate repair using the dedicated kit (see “Changing a wheel” in
the “In an emergency” section) and contact Alfa Romeo Authorised
Services as soon as possible.TPMS failure
This warning light (or symbol on the display) switches on (on some
versions together with a message on the display) when a TPMS fault is
detected.
In this case, contact Alfa Romeo Authorised Services as soon as
possible.
Should one or more wheels be fitted without sensors, the display will
show a warning message until initial conditions are restored.
Check tyre pressure
This warning light (or symbol in the display) switches on (on some
versions together with a message in the display) to indicate that the
tyre pressure is below the value recommended to guarantee long tyre
life and low fuel consumption. It may also indicate a slow loss of
pressure.
Should two or more tyres be in the condition mentioned above, the
display will show the indications corresponding to each tyre in
sequence.
Under these circumstances you should restore the correct pressure
values (see "Technical specifications" section).

TRIP COMPUTER
GENERAL INFORMATION
The Trip computer is used to display information on car operation
when the key is turned to MAR.
This function allows you to define two separate trips called “Trip A”
and “Trip B” for monitoring the car's "complete journey" in a
reciprocally independent manner.
Both functions are resettable (reset - start of a new journey).
“Trip A” is used to display the figures relating to:
❒Range
❒Distance travelled
❒Average fuel consumption
❒Instant fuel consumption
❒Average speed
❒Trip time (driving time).
“Trip B” may be used to display the figures relating to:
❒Distance travelled B
❒Average consumption B
❒Average speed B
❒Trip time B (driving time).
The “Trip B” function may be disabled (see “Activating Trip B”).
“Range” and “Instant consumption" parameters cannot be reset.

AIR RECIRCULATION
The air recirculation is managed according to the following operating
logics:
❒automatic activation: press one of the AUTO buttons. Activation is
indicated by the word AUTO appearing on the display;
❒override on (inside air recirculation always on): indicated by the LED
on button C and the
symbol on the display;
❒override off (air recirculation constantly off, air intake from the
outside): signalled by the LED on button C switching off and by the
symbol in the display disappearing. Forced activation/
deactivation can be selected by pressing button C.
IMPORTANT The activation of recirculation makes it possible to reach
the required passenger compartment heating/cooling conditions faster.
It is, however, inadvisable to use it on rainy/cold days as it would
considerably increase the possibility of the windows misting up inside
(especially if the climate control system is off).
When the outside temperature is low, recirculation is forced off (air
drawn in from the outside) to prevent the windows from misting up. In
automatic operation, air recirculation will be managed automatically
by the system according to external environmental conditions.
When manual recirculation control is set, the word FULL disappears
from the display and AUTO disappears from the icon.
It is advisable not to use the air recirculation function
when the outside temperature is low to prevent the
windows from rapidly misting up.
CLIMATE CONTROL COMPRESSOR
Press button B to activate/deactivate the compressor. The system
remembers that the compressor has been switched off, even after the
engine has stopped.
When the compressor is switched off the system deactivates air
recirculation to prevent the windows from misting up. In this case,
although the system is capable of maintaining the required
temperature, the word FULL will disappear from the display.
If, however, the system is unable to maintain the requested
temperature, the temperature indications flash and the word AUTO
disappears.
To restore automatic control of compressor engagement, press button B
again or press the AUTO button.
With compressor off:
❒if the outside temperature is higher than the set one, the system will
not be able to satisfy the request. The temperature value will then
flash on the display for a few seconds and the word AUTO will
disappear;
❒the fan speed can be reset manually.
With the compressor on and the engine running, the fan speed cannot
be lower than one bar on the display.
IMPORTANT With the climate control compressor off, air cannot be
introduced to the passenger compartment with a temperature lower
than the outside temperature; moreover, under certain environmental
conditions, windows could mist rapidly since the air is not
dehumidified.

CRUISE CONTROL
(for versions/markets, where provided)
GENERAL INFORMATION
This is an electronically controlled driving assistance device which
allows driving at a chosen speed above 30 km/h on long stretches of
dry, straight roads with few variations (e.g. motorways), without
having to depress the accelerator pedal.
The use of this device on extra-urban roads with traffic is not therefore
recommended. Do not use it in town.
TURNING THE DEVICE ON
Turn ring nut A fig. 38 to ON.
The device cannot be engaged in 1
stor reverse gear: it is advisable to
engage it in 5thgear or higher.
When travelling downhill with the device engaged, the car may slightly
exceed the stored speed.When the device is activated, the
warning light switches on
together with the relevant message on the display (for versions/
markets, where provided).
STORING THE CAR SPEED
Proceed as follows:
❒turn ring nut A fig. 38 to ON and press the accelerator to reach the
required speed.
❒move the stalk upwards (+) for at least 1 second, then release it: the
car speed is now memorised and you can therefore release the
accelerator.
If needed (when overtaking for instance), you can accelerate simply by
pressing the accelerator; when you release the pedal, the car goes
back to the speed set previously.
RESTORING THE MEMORISED SPEED
If the device has been disengaged by pressing the brake or clutch
pedal, the stored speed can be reset as follows:
❒accelerate gradually until a speed approaching the one stored is
reached;
❒engage the gear selected at the time that the speed was stored;
❒press the RES button (B fig. 38).
