automatic transmission Alfa Romeo Stelvio 2019 User Guide

until the button is released, then the new
speed will be stored.
Decreasing speed
Once the device has been activated, you
can decrease the speed by lowering the
SET switch. Each time it is operated, the
speed decreases by 1 mph (1 km/h).
By holding the button down, the set
speed will decrease in steps of 6 mph
(10 km/h) until the button is released,
then the new speed will be stored.
IMPORTANT Moving the SET switch
allows you to adjust the speed according
to the selected unit of measurement
("metric" or "imperial") set on the
Connect system (see dedicated
supplement).
Important notes
By keeping the accelerator pedal
depressed, the car can continue to
accelerate beyond the set speed. In this
case, use the SET switch to set the speed
to the vehicle’s current speed.
When the SET button is pressed to
reduce the speed, the braking system
intervenes automatically if the engine
brake does not slow the car down
sufficiently to reach the set speed. The
device holds the set speed uphill and
downhill; however a slight variation is
entirely normal, particularly on slight
gradients.The automatic transmission could change
to a lower gears when driving downhill or
when accelerating. This is normal and
necessary to maintain the set speed.
The device is switched off while driving if
the brakes overheat.
ACCELERATING WHEN OVERTAKING
When driving with the device active and
following a vehicle, the device provides
additional acceleration to facilitate
overtaking, when travelling over a given
speed and switches on the left direction
indicator (of the right indicator for
right-hand drive versions).
In left-hand traffic, the overtaking assist
function is only active when the left-hand
lane is used for overtaking the vehicle
ahead (the opposite activation logic is
used in right-hand traffic countries).
The device 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 activated when the driver uses the
right direction indicator.
In this condition, the device no longer
provides the overtaking assist function
on the left-hand side until it determinesthat the vehicle has returned to left-hand
traffic conditions.
RECALLING THE SPEED
Once the system has been cancelled but
not deactivated, if a speed was
previously set simply press the RES
button and remove your foot from the
accelerator to recall it.
The system will be set to the last stored
speed.
Before returning to the previously set
speed, bring the speed close to that
value, then press the RES button and
release it.
IMPORTANT The recall function must
only be used if the road and traffic
conditions so allow. Recalling an
excessively high or low speed for the
current traffic and road conditions could
cause an acceleration or a deceleration

161)Remove any metal objects (e.g. rings,
watches, bracelets), that might cause an
accidental electrical contact and cause
serious injury.
162)The batteries contain acid that can
burn skin or eyes. Batteries produce
hydrogen, which is easily flammable and
explosive. Thus keep away flames or devices
which may cause sparks.
IMPORTANT
61)Never use a fast battery-charger to
start the engine as this could damage the
electronic systems of your vehicle,
particularly the ignition and engine fuel
supply control units.
62)Do not connect the cable to the negative
terminal (–) of the flat battery. The following
spark could lead to battery explosion and
cause serious harm. Only use the specific
earth point; do not use any other exposed
metallic part.
FUEL CUT-OFFSYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
Depending on the type and violence of
the impact, the control unit of the ORC
occupant protection systems determines
whether to activate the airbags and the
front seat belt pretensioners and
whether to immediately interrupt the
current from the batteries to the supply
pumps and to the devices that operate
the engine. The power from the battery is
interrupted by "skipping" the pyrotechnic
fuse placed on the fusebox next to the
positive pole of the battery.
When the fuse is "skipped", only some
services, necessary for the safety of the
car (eg: door locks, anti-theft device, etc.),
remain powered.
IMPORTANT After the impact, carefully
check the car for fuel leaks, for instance
in the engine compartment, under the car
or near the tank area.
IMPORTANT Contact an Alfa Romeo
Dealership to have the system checked.

ENGINE COOLANT FLUID
168)
67)
If the level is below the MIN mark,
remove the reservoir cap and top up with
suitable fluid (see the "Fluids and
lubricants" paragraph in the "Technical
data" chapter), until it reaches the MAX
mark.
IMPORTANT Never attempt to remove
the cap with radiator or expansion tank
hot: RISK OF BURNS!
WASHER FLUID FOR WINDSCREEN/
HEADLIGHTS
169) 170)
The windscreen and headlights washer
fluid reservoir (where provided) is
equipped with a telescopic filler. If the
level is too low, remove the reservoir cap
4 fig. 176, then lift the filler as shown in
the figure and add the fluid described in
the "Technical Specifications" chapter.
After having topped up the fluid, arrange
the filler correctly and then press on the
cap until you hear it click.
IMPORTANT With a low fluid level
(indicated by the dedicated symbol
appearing on the instrument panel
display), the headlight washer system
does not work, even though the screen
washers continue to work.
BRAKE FLUID
Check that the fluid is at the max. level. If
the liquid level in the tank is insufficient,
contact an Alfa Romeo Dealership to
have the system checked.

6)
The battery does not require the
electrolyte to be topped up with distilled
water. A periodic check carried out at an
Alfa Romeo Dealership is, however,
necessary to check efficiency.
Follow the battery manufacturer's
instructions for maintenance.
Useful advice for extending the life of
your battery
To avoid draining your battery and make
it last longer, observe the following
instructions:
when you park the car, ensure that the
doors, tailgate and bonnet are closed
properly, to prevent any lights from
remaining on inside the passenger's
compartment;
switch off all roof lights inside the car:
the car is however equipped with a
system which switches all internal lights
off automatically;

SERVICING AND CARE

BODYWORK
PRESERVING THE BODYWORK
Paintwork
77)7)
Touch up abrasions and scratches
immediately to prevent the formation of
rust.
Some parts of the car may be covered
with a matt paint which, in order to be
maintained intact, requires special care:
see the instructions in the warning at the
end of this paragraph.
78)
To correctly wash the vehicle, follow
these instructions:
if high pressure jets or cleaners are
used to wash the vehicle, hold at least
16 in [40 cm] away from the bodywork to
avoid damage or alteration. Build up of
water could cause damage to the car in
the long term;
to make it easier to remove any dirt
deposits in the area where the blades are
normally located it is recommended to
position the windscreen wipers vertically
(service position), for more information
consult the “Maintenance procedures”
paragraph in this chapter.If you want to wash a car with automatic
transmission in a car wash that moves it,
you must do the following:
make sure that the car is on a flat
surface and that automatic engagement
of the parking brake when the engine is
switched off is disabled (for how to
disable it, refer to the “Electric parking
brake” section in the “Starting and
driving” chapter);
with the car stationary, the gear in N
(Neutral) and the brake pedal up: press
the start button. The car will remain in N
(Neutral) for 15 minutes, after which P
(Park) mode will be activated.
IMPORTANT
77)In order to preserve the aesthetic
appearance of the paint abrasive products
and/or polishes should not be used for
cleaning the vehicle.78)Avoid washing with rollers and/or
brushes in washing stations. Wash the car
only by hand using neutral pH detergents; dry
it with a wet chamois leather. Abrasive
products and/or polishes should not be used
for cleaning the car. Bird droppings must be
washed off immediately and thoroughly as
the acid they contain is particularly
aggressive. Avoid (if at all possible) parking
the vehicle under trees; remove vegetable
resins immediately as, when dried, it may
only be possible to remove them with
abrasive products and/or polishes, which is
highly inadvisable as they could alter the
typical opaqueness of the paint. Do not use
pure windscreen washer fluid for cleaning
the front windscreen and rear window; dilute
it min. 50% with water. Only use pure screen
washer fluid when strictly necessary due to
outside temperature conditions.IMPORTANT
7)Detergents pollute the environment. Only
wash your vehicle in areas equipped to
collect and treat wastewater from this type
of activity.
