STARTING AND DRIVING
128
a condition that might damage
the transmission is detected, the
"transmission emergency" function is
activated.
In this condition, the transmission stays
in 4th gear, regardless of the gear
selected. The P (Park), R (Reverse) and N
(Neutral) modes continue to work.
The symbol might light up on the
instrument panel display.
In the event of a "transmission
emergency" immediately contact the
nearest Alfa Romeo Dealership.
Temporary failure
If the symbol lights up, the failure may
be temporary, in which case, proceed as
follows to restore correct transmission
operation:
stop the car;
engage P (Park) mode;
bring the ignition device to STOP;
wait for about 10 seconds, then restart
the engine;
select the desired gear: if the
problem is not detected any more
the transmission correct operation is
restored.
WARNING In the event of a temporary
failure it is in any case recommended
to contact an Alfa Romeo Dealership as
soon as possible.
GEAR ENGAGEMENT DISABLING
SYSTEM WITHOUT BRAKE PEDAL
PRESSED
This system prevents you from moving
the gear lever from P (Park) mode if the
brake pedal has not been previously
depressed.
To bring the gear lever to a position other
than P (Park), the ignition device must be
in position AVV (engine on or off) and the
brake pedal must be pressed.
WARNING
116) Never use position P (Park) instead of
the electric parking brake. Always engage
the electric parking brake when parking the
vehicle to avoid the acciental movement of
the vehicle.
117) If the P (Park) position is not engaged,
the car could move and injure people. Before
leaving the car, make sure that the gear
lever is in position P and that the electric
parking brake is engaged.
118) Do not shift the gear lever to N
(Neutral) and do not stop the engine when
driving on a downhill road. This type of
driving is dangerous and reduces the
possibility of intervening in the case of
variation of the road traffic or surface. You
risk losing control of your car and causing
accidents.
IMPORTANT
35) Before selecting P (Park) mode, bring
the ignition device to position ON and press
the brake pedal. Otherwise, the gear lever
may get damaged.
36) Engage reverse only with the car
stationary, engine at idling speed and
accelerator fully released.
