Alfa Romeo Giulietta (2017 year). Manual — part 20
depress the brake pedal with your left
foot and, simultaneously, fully depress
the accelerator pedal with your right
foot;
shift gear using the gear lever or the
steering wheel paddle "−" (pulling the
paddle towards the driver as previously
described): rpm are thus increased from
2750 to 4500; (1.4 Petrol versions) and
from 1700 to 2700 (2.0 JTD
M
versions)
and from 3000 to 3750 (1750 Turbo
petrol version);
release the brake pedal: in this way a
more "lively" start is achieved.
When the brake pedal is released, the car
will start with maximum acceleration.
Despite the "Sequential mode", the car
will autonomously shift the gear to
guarantee max. acceleration, once the
correct shifting speed has been reached.
To abandon the strategy, simply interrupt
the above sequence of operations or
release the accelerator pedal.
IMPORTANT
25)
If the car is on a gradient, always engage
the electric parking brake BEFORE placing
the gear lever in P.
26)
Engage reverse only with the car
stationary, engine at idling speed and
accelerator pedal fully released.
27)
Using the paddles incorrectly (paddles
pushed towards the dashboard ) could break
them.
28)
It is advisable to contact an Alfa Romeo
Dealership to have the refitting procedure
carried out. If you would like to proceed
autonomously, special attention must be
paid to the correct coupling of the retaining
clips. Otherwise, noise might be heard due to
an incorrect fastening of the lower cover
with the upper cover.
WARNING
97)
Never leave children unattended in the
car. Always remove the ignition key when
leaving the car and take the key with you.
98)
While the Launch Control function is
being used, the ESC and ASR systems are
deactivated.This means that vehicle
dynamic control is the sole responsibility of
the driver.Therefore pay the utmost
attention when using the Launch Control.
Take into account traffic and road surface
conditions and during manoeuvres make
sure there is enough room in the area
concerned.

the gear lever as the force exerted, even if
slight, could lead over time to premature
wear of the gearbox internal components.
START&STOP SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The Stop/Start system automatically
stops the engine each time the vehicle is
stationary and starts it again when the
driver wants to move off.
In this way, the vehicle efficiency is
increased, by reducing consumption,
dangerous gas emissions and sound
pollution.
OPERATING MODE
Stopping the engine
With the vehicle stopped, the engine
stops with gearbox in neutral and clutch
pedal released.
NOTE The engine can only be stopped
automatically after exceeding about
10 km/h, to prevent the engine from

STARTING AND DRIVING
CRUISE CONTROL
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This is an electronically controlled driving
assistance device that allows the desired
vehicle speed to be maintained, without
having to press the accelerator pedal.
This device can be used at a speed above
30 km/h on long stretches of dry, straight
roads with few variations (e.g.
motorways). It is therefore not
recommended to use this device on
extra-urban roads with traffic. Do not use
it in town.
ACTIVATING THE DEVICE
Turn ring 1 fig. 67 to ON.
The device cannot be engaged in 1
st
or
reverse gear: it is advisable to engage it
in 5
th
gear or higher.
When travelling downhill with the device
engaged, the car may slightly exceed the
stored speed.
Activation is indicated by the warning
light
.
SETTING THE DESIRED SPEED
Proceed as follows:
turn ring 1 fig. 67 to ON and press the
accelerator to reach the required speed;
move the stalk upwards (+) for at least
1 second, then release it: the car speed is
now stored and you can therefore release
the accelerator.
If needed (when overtaking for instance),
you can accelerate simply by pressing the
accelerator; when you release the pedal,
the vehicle goes back to the speed stored
previously.
RESTORING THE MEMORISED SPEED
If the device has been disengaged by
pressing the brake or clutch pedal, the
stored speed can be reset as follows:
accelerate gradually until a speed
approaching the one stored is reached;
engage the gear selected at the time
of speed storing;
press the RES button (2 fig. 67).
INCREASING THE MEMORISED SPEED
Once the electronic Cruise Control has
been activated, the speed can be
increased by pressing button SET +.
REDUCING THE MEMORISED SPEED
Once the electronic Cruise Control has
been activated, the speed can be reduced
by pressing the button SET -.
DEACTIVATING THE DEVICE
The device can be switched off in the
following ways:
by turning the ring 1 fig. 67 to the OFF
position;
by switching off the engine;
by pressing the brake pedal, the clutch
or the accelerator; in this last case the
system is not effectively deactivated but
the system gives priority to the
acceleration request. The device still
remains active, without the need to press
the RES button to return to the previous
conditions once acceleration is
concluded.
Automatic deactivation
The device is automatically switched off
in the following cases:
if the ABS or ESC systems intervene;
with the vehicle speed below the set
limit;
in the event of system failure.
