Alfa Romeo Giulietta (2017 year). Manual — part 10
Warning lights on
panel
What it means
What to do
LOW ENGINE OIL PRESSURE
When the key is turned to MAR the warning light comes on, but should go out as soon
as the engine is started.
After turning the ignition key to MAR, wait for about 2 seconds before starting the
engine.
The warning light switches on constantly together with a message on the display (for
versions/markets, where provided) when the system detects that engine oil
pressure is low.
IMPORTANT Do not use the vehicle until the failure has been solved.
IMPORTANT To find out the correct oil quantity, always check using the dipstick.
17)
DEGRADED ENGINE OIL (for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light will turn on flashing together with a dedicated message on the
display (for versions/markets where provided).
Depending on the versions, the warning light flashing modes are as follows:
- for 1 minute every two hours;
- for 3 minute cycles with the warning light off for intervals of 5 seconds until oil is
changed.
After the initial warning, each time the engine is started up, the warning light will
continue to flash in the same mode, until the oil is changed. A specific message will
appear on the display (for versions/markets, where provided) in addition to the
warning light. If the warning light flashes, this does not mean that there is a fault, but
simply informs that it is now necessary to change the oil as a result of regular use of
the car. Engine oil deterioration is accelerated by:
- mainly town use of the car which makes the DPF regeneration process more
frequent;
- use of the vehicle for short drives, in which the engine does not have time to reach
its regular operating temperature;
- repeated interruptions of the regeneration process, signalled by the DPF warning
light switching on.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL
Warning lights on
panel
What it means
What to do
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE TOO HIGH
The warning light switches on when the ignition key is
turned to MAR, but it should switch off after a few
seconds. The warning light turns on when the engine is
overheated.
The display shows the dedicated message.
In normal driving conditions
: stop the car, switch off the
engine and check that the water level in the reservoir is
not below the MIN mark. In this case, wait for the engine
to cool down, then slowly and carefully open the cap, top
up with coolant and check that the level is between the
MIN and MAX marks on the reservoir itself. Also check
visually for any fluid leaks. Should the warning light turn
on again at the next start-up, contact an Alfa Romeo
Dealership.
If the vehicle is used under demanding conditions
: (e.g. in
high-performance driving): slow down and, if the warning
light stays on, stop the vehicle. Wait for 2 or 3 minutes
with the engine running and slightly accelerated to
further favour the coolant circulation. Then stop the
engine. Check that the coolant level is correct as
described above.
IMPORTANT Over demanding routes, it is advisable to
keep the engine on and slightly accelerated for a few
minutes before switching it off.
ALFA TCT FAILURE
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light switches on when the ignition key is
turned to MAR, but it should switch off after a few
seconds.
The warning light flashes (together with a message in the
display and an acoustic signal) to indicate that the
gearbox is faulty.
The warning light can switch on even in the case of
transmission overheating, after a particularly demanding
use. In this case an engine performance limitation is
carried out.
Contact an Alfa Romeo Dealership as soon as possible.
If it is necessary to start the engine with a transmission
failure, follow the procedure described in the "Alfa TCT"
paragraph, in chapter "Starting and driving".

SPEED LIMIT EXCEEDED
(for versions/markets, where provided)

panel
What it means
What to do
FUEL RESERVE/LIMITED RANGE
The warning light turns on when about 8 - 10 litres of fuel
are left in the tank.
When the remaining range is lower than approx. 50 km
(or equivalent value in miles), on some versions the
display will show a warning message.
25)
REAR FOG LIGHTS
This warning light comes on when the rear fog lights are
switched on.
ABS FAILURE
The warning light switches on when the ignition key is
turned to MAR, but it should switch off after a few
seconds.
The warning light switches on to indicate a system fault.
In this case the braking system maintains its efficiency
unaltered but without the advantage of the ABS system.
Drive carefully and contact an Alfa Romeo Dealership as
soon as possible.
