LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT
TAILGATE
The tailgate is operated electrically, so
pay the utmost attention before
activating its movement.
Safe opening and closing of the tailgate is
guaranteed by a protection system that
can automatically stop its movement
when it encounters an obstacle while
opening or closing.
When the car is moving, tailgate
unlocking and movement are disabled.
To avoid difficulties in tight spaces, you
can set the height at which to block the
tailgate open.

To customise the tailgate opening
position, proceed as described below:
open the tailgate;
manually move it to the position that
you want to store;
press one of the closing buttons 2 or 3
fig. 47 for at least 5 seconds (successful
acquisition is indicated by the direction
indicators flashing three times).
The tailgate is now programmed to open
to the set position.
This function can be selected on the
Connect system fig. 41 (where provided).Setting the tailgate opening height to a
preset position(where provided)
To set the tailgate opening height to one
of the four preset positions, proceed as

AUTOMATICALLY OPENING AND
CLOSING THE ELECTRICALLY
OPERATED TAILGATE IN “HANDS FREE”
MODE
(where provided)
To operate the system in “Hands free”
mode, proceed as follows:
if the doors are locked or unlocked, the
system must recognize the electronic key
fob near the tailgate;
go to the rear of the car, in the centre
and about 20 in (50 cm) from the tailgate;
move your foot under the bumper,
simulating a kick. When you have done
this movement, withdraw your leg. To
activate the movement, both sensors
must detect your leg fig. 48.If it is closed, the electrically
operated/Hands free tailgate:
unlocks and opens completely;
with another movement of the foot, it
stops;
a further movement of the foot
reverses the direction and closes the
tailgate completely, if you do not stop it
again.
If it is open, with a movement of the foot,
the electrically operated/Hands free
tailgate:
closes completely;
another movement of the foot before
it closes completely will stop it;
if the tailgate was stopped, another
movement of the foot reverses the
direction and opens it completely.
You can activate/deactivate the
automatic tailgate opening and closing
function in “Hand Free” mode on the
Connect system by pressing the MENU
button to select the Main menu, and
selecting the following items in
succession: “Settings”, “Doors & Locks”
and “Automatic tailgate opening”. Select
them by turning the Rotary Pad and
pressing it.
IMPORTANT Before lifting the foot off
the ground, make sure that you are in
stable position. Do not touch any part of
the car. There is a risk of injury from
touching, for example, the very hot
exhaust system.
IMPORTANT To conserve the battery
charge, avoid performing this operation
repeatedly with the engine off.
IMPORTANT To prevent accidentally
opening the tailgate when washing the
car at a car wash station or using a
high-pressure cleaner, use the Connect
system to disable the “Automatic tailgate
opening” function.

to the transmission operation mode (M, P,
R, N, D).
If the gear is changed using the steering
wheel lever (where provided), In D mode
or manual M mode, it also displays the
engaged gear.
In M mode, it also shows when to shift
gear up or down.
2 Front, side anti-collision systems,
Cruise Control
Displays the operation the following
modes:
Forward Collision Warning (FCW)
Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
Cruise Control (CC) or Active Cruise
Control (ACC) (where provided)
For further information, see relevant
paragraphs.
3 Speed limit warning light
Shows information regarding the Speed
Limiter function.
For further information, see relevant
paragraph.
4 Reconfigurable main area
Can display the following screens:
Home
Trip A
Trip B (can be activated/deactivated
on the Connect system)
PerformanceThe screens can be selected, on rotation,
by pressing the button shown in fig. 52.
Depending on the chosen driving mode
(Dynamic / Dynamic + (where provided),
Normal, Advanced Efficiency), which can
be selected through the “Alfa DNA™”
system, the screens can be graphically
different. The navigation instructions and
call information can be repeated on the
Connect system display and also in this
area of the display. These functions can
be set on the Connect system.
Home
The parameters shown on the display, for
the modes: Dynamic / Dynamic + (where
provided), Normal and Advanced
Efficiency are:
Time (on the 3.5" FT display shown
only if the Phone function repeat mode
has not previously been activated).
Outside temperature (on the 3.5" FT
display shown only if the Phone function
repeat mode has not previously been
activated).
Current speed (shown if the repeat
modes of the Phone and Navigation
functions have not been previously
activated).
Range (on the 3.5" FT display shown if
the Radio and Media functions repeat
mode have not been previously
activated).
Trip A and B
The "Trip computer" can be used to
display, for all driving modes (Dynamic,
Normal, Advanced Efficiency) and with
the ignition device ON, the
measurements regarding the operating
state of the car. This function is
characterised by two separate records,
called “Trip A” and “Trip B” (the latter can
be deactivated by the Connect system),
where the car’s “complete missions”
(journeys) are recorded in a reciprocally
independent manner.
“Trip A” and “Trip B” allow you to see the
following values:
Distance travelled
Average fuel consumption
Average speed
Active trip
Fuel consumption indicator (7" TFT
Display only)

Performance
The displayed parameters are different
in function from the active mode, and the
modes can be selected through the “Alfa
DNA™” system and are as follows:
Normal: The screen graphically
reproduces some parameters closely
linked to the efficiency of the driving
style, with a view to limiting consumption;
Advanced Efficiency: The three central
icons on the screen indicate the
effectiveness of the driving style, linked
to the following parameters:
acceleration, deceleration and gear
shifts, with a view to limiting
consumption. The bar below the icons
shows current consumption and the
green line represents the optimal area.
The globe (7" TFT Display) lights up
gradually according to lower
consumption.
Dynamic / Dynamic + (where
provided): The displayed parameters are
related to car stability, the graphs
illustrate the trend of the
longitudinal/lateral accelerations
(G-meter information), considering
gravity acceleration as a reference unit.
Lateral acceleration peaks are also
indicated.5 Compass
Views the position indicating the cardinal
point.
6 Milometer
Indicates the total kilometres (or miles)
travelled.
