Alfa Romeo STELVIO Owner's Handbook Manual page 43

The function activates the high beam
headlights when the speed is higher than
25 mph (40 km/h).
When the speed is lower than 15 mph
(25 km/h) and the function is active,
the function switches the main beam
headlights off.
If the fixed main beam headlights are
operated quickly again (pushing the left
stalk towards the instrument panel), the
warning light/icon will switch on in
the instrument panel and the main beam
headlights will be switched on fixed until
the speed exceeds 25 mph (40 km/h).
When the speed of 25 mph (40 km/h)
is exceeded again, the automatic
functioning is reactivated.
If the left stalk is pushed again in
this condition, to request main beam
headlight deactivation, the function
deactivates and the main beam
headlights switch off.

IMPORTANT NOTES
The correct operation of the automatic
high beam function may be influenced by:
presence of reflections on road sign
surfaces;
dim light of other road users (e.g.
cyclists or pedestrians);
bad weather (rain or fog);
presence of dirt on the sensor or
obstruction of the sensor;
damage to the windscreen or presence
of dirt or ice/snow or misting up of the
windscreen;
presence of vehicles approaching in
the opposite direction partially obscured
by a central obstacle.
WARNING Make sure that the
windscreen is always defrosted and
demisted in winter.
DIRECTION INDICATORS
The direction indicators could assume
two different flashing strategies:
continuous or temporary (Lane Change).
To activate the continuous flashing
function, move the left lever until end of
stroke (unstable):
up: right direction signal activated,
the warning light flashes on the
instrument panel;
down: left direction signal activated,
the warning light flashes on the
.
instrument panel.
Warning light or will blink on the
instrument panel.
The direction indicators turn of
automatically when the car is brought
back onto a straight course or by moving
the lever in the opposite direction until
the first click (about half way).
"Lane Change" function
When you want to signal the change of
the driving lane, move the lever until the
first impulse (about half stroke).
The direction indicator on the side
selected will be activated for 3 flashes
and then go out automatically. To turn of
the flashing before the end of the cycle,
move the lever in the opposite direction
until the first click (about half way).
HEADLIGHT ALIGNMENT ADJUSTMENT
Light beam direction
The correct aiming of the headlights is
important for the comfort and safety
of not only the driver but all other road
users. This is also covered by a specific
rule of the highway code.
The headlights must be correctly
aligned to guarantee the best visibility
conditions for all drivers while travelling
with headlights on.
Contact a Alfa Romeo Dealership to have
the headlights checked and adjusted, if
necessary.
On vehicles equipped with manual
headlight alignment adjuster, check light
beam alignment every time the load or
its distribution changes.
Headlight alignment corrector
