ALFA DNA / PRO SELECTOR
Alfa DNA System
This vehicle is equipped with an Alfa DNA system
selector (located on the center console). There
are four modes of operation to be selected
according to driving style and road conditions:
Alfa DNA System Selector
d = Dynamic (sports driving mode).
n = Normal (mode for driving in normal
conditions).
a = Advanced Efficiency (ECO driving mode
for maximum fuel savings).
RACE = track race driving mode (if equipped).
= Adjusts the calibration of the active
suspension (Quadrifoglio only).
When the engine is stopped, the selector
returns to “n” (Normal) mode.
The symbol of the active mode lights up in red
on the selector.
On the instrument panel display, the different
modes are characterized by different colors:
Normal - Blue
Dynamic - Red
Advanced Efficiency - Green
Mode Display
Each driving mode is graphically different on
color line and contents of each individual
“performance” screen.
Do not leave the key fob in or near the
vehicle (or in a location accessible to chil-
dren), and do not leave the ignition in the
ON/RUN or ACC mode. A child could
operate power windows, other controls, or
move the vehicle.
CAUTION!
Only engage the gear with engine at idling
while fully depressing the brake pedal. If the
transmission temperature exceeds the
normal operating limits, the transmission
control unit may change the gear engage-
ment order and reduce the drive torque. If
the transmission overheats, it could operate
incorrectly until it cools down.
When using the vehicle with extremely low
external temperatures, the transmission
operation may change depending on the
engine and transmission temperature, as
well as vehicle speed. Activation of the
torque converter clutch and of the eighth
gear is inhibited until the transmission oil
is correctly warmed up. Complete opera-
tion of the transmission will be enabled as
soon as the fluid temperature reaches the
predefined value.
WARNING! (Continued)
