STARTING AND DRIVING

Its status can be changed from unused to
operational only if:
the handbrake is engaged or the shift
lever is in the P position;
the engine is off;
the tailgate is open.
There is a LED on the button 1, which may
be in one of the following states:
LED off: indicates that at least one of
the above conditions is not met, or the
trailer light wiring is connected to the
socket.
LED flashing: indicates that the tow
hook is moving or that the system must
be initialised;
LED on fixed: indicates that the tow
hook can be moved.
Safe opening and closing of the tow hook
is guaranteed by a protection system
that can stop and reverse its movement
when it encounters an obstacle while
opening or closing.
The system must be initialised after the
battery has been disconnected, the
movement has been blocked by a
physical obstacle or if the safety system
has intervened three times
consecutively.
IMPORTANT When the tow hook is not in
use, put it in the closed position.
System initialisation
In the conditions of movement described
above, press the movement button 1 for
at least 10 seconds. The LED will turn on
to confirm the initialisation.

HAZARD WARNING LIGHTS
CONTROL
54)
Press the fig. 140 button to switch the
hazard warning lights on/off.
When the hazard warning lights are on,
the
andwarning lights flash.
When you need to move away from the
vehicle to look for help, the hazard
warning lights will continue flashing even
if the ignition device is in the STOP
position.
IMPORTANT The use of hazard warning
lights is governed by the highway code of
the country you are driving in: comply
with legal requirements.
Emergency braking
The hazard lights are switched on and
warning lights
andappear on the
instrument panel in case of emergency
braking and according to the mode
selected by the “Alfa DNA™” selector.
When the "Alfa DNA™" selector is in
position "n" or "a", the activation
threshold of the hazard warning lights is
higher; on the other hand, in position "d"
the sensitivity of the activation is lower
than that in the "n" and "a" modes.
The lights switch off automatically when
emergency braking ceases.
IMPORTANT
54)A prolonged use of the hazard warning
lights may discharge the battery.
CHANGING A BULB
129) 130) 131) 132)
55)
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONSBefore replacing a bulb check the
contacts for oxidation;
replace blown bulbs with others of the
same type and power;
after replacing a headlight bulb,
always check its alignment;
when a light is not working, check that
the corresponding fuse is intact before
changing the bulb. For the location of
fuses, refer to the paragraph "If a fuse
blows" in this chapter.
IMPORTANT In some particular climate
conditions such as low teperature,
humidity or after washing the car, a thin
condensation layer may form on the
internal surfaces of the front and rear
headlights. This is a natural phenomenon
due to the difference in temperature and
humidity between the inside and the
outside of the transparent cover which
does not indicate a fault and does not
compromise the normal operation of
lighting devices. It will disappear during
normal use.

IN AN EMERGENCY

WARNING
129)Before replacing the bulb, wait for the
exhaust ducts to cool down: DANGER OF
SCALDING!
130)Modifications or repairs to the electric
system that are not carried out properly or
do not take the system technical
specifications into account can cause
malfunctions leading to the risk of fire.
131)Halogen bulbs contain pressurised gas,
in the case of breakage they may burst
causing glass fragments to be projected
outwards.
132)Only replace the light bulbs when the
engine is off and in a position that does not
interfere with traffic and lets you safely
replace them (see the description in the
“Replacement” paragraph). Also ensure that
the engine is cold, to prevent the risk of
burns.
IMPORTANT
55)Halogen bulbs must be handled holding
the metallic part only. Touching the
transparent part of the bulb with your
fingers may reduce the intensity of the
emitted light and even reduce the lifespan of
the bulb. In the event of accidental contact,
wipe the bulb with a cloth moistened with
alcohol and let the bulb dry.
