CAUTION! (Continued)
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.

ALFA DNA SELECTOR

Alfa DNA System

This vehicle is equipped with an Alfa DNA
system selector (located on the center
console). There are up to four modes of opera-
tion to be selected according to driving style
and road conditions:
Alfa DNA Pro System Selector
d = Dynamic (sports driving mode).

n = Natural (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 (if equipped).
Unlike the other modes, the RACE position
does not latch; therefore, by rotating the
selector to RACE, it will return to its initial posi-
tion "d".
On the instrument panel display, the different
modes are characterized by different colors:
Natural - Blue

Dynamic - Red

Advanced Efficiency - Green

RACE - Yellow
