ALFA DNA SYSTEM (DYNAMIC CAR CONTROL SYSTEM)

This vehicle is equipped with a "Alfa DNA" system lever (located on the center console). There are
four modes of operation to be selected according to driving style and road conditions:
• Dynamic (This mode alters the transmission's automatic shift schedule for sportier driving [D]).
• Natural (mode for driving in normal conditions [N]).
• All Weather (mode for driving in poor grip conditions, such as rain and snow [A]).
• Race (sports driving mode [D]).
This also acts on the dynamic car control systems (engine, gearbox/transmission, ESC system).
Driving Modes
The Alfa DNA system lever will always return to
the center position after use.
The selected driving mode is indicated by the
corresponding LED switching in the panel and
by an indication on the display.
