INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DISPLAY
Instrument Cluster Display Description
This vehicle is equipped with a driver-interactive display that is located in the instrument cluster. When one or more of the doors have been opened or closed and the ignition is in the OFF position, the instrument cluster will display the vehicle mileage for a few seconds.
Reconfigurable Instrument Cluster Display
During operation, the instrument cluster display is divided into multiple sections which show driving data, warnings, and failure indications.
Reconfigurable Multifunctional Display
- Headlight Warning Lights
Displays the headlight warning light for either of the following active modes:- Headlights
- Automatic Headlights.
- Gear Selector Information
Displays the following information controlled by the gear selector function:- P = PARK
- R = REVERSE
- N = NEUTRAL
- D = DRIVE, (automatic forward speed)
- AutoStick: + shifting to a higher gear in manual (sequential) driving mode; –shifting to a lower gear in sequential driving mode.
- Forward Collision, Lane Departure, Cruise Control
Displays operations for the following modes:- Forward Collision Warning (FCW)
- Lane Departure Warning (LDW) — If Equipped
- Cruise Control (CC) or Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) — If Equipped
- Speed Limit Warning Light
Shows information regarding the Speed Limiter function. - Compass
- Reconfigurable Main Area
Can display the following screens:- Home
- Trip A
- Trip B (can be activated/deactivated through the Information and Entertainment System)
- Performance
The screens can be selected, on rotation, by pushing the MENU selection button on the windshield wiper stalk.
Depending on the driving mode chosen using the “Alfa DNA Pro” (Dynamic, Natural, Advanced Efficiency, and RACE), the screens can be graphically different. Navigation instructions and call information can be repeated, besides on the Information and Entertainment System display, also in this area of the display, these functions can be set on the Information and Entertainment System.
Home
The parameters shown on the display, for the modes: Dynamic, Natural, and Advanced Efficiency are: - Time
- Outside Temperature
- Current Speed (shown if the repeat modes of the Phone and Navigation functions are not active)
- Range
In RACE mode, the consumption indication index is not active and a sports gearshift indicator is displayed. The sports gearshift indicator is represented by three yellow segments, if the third indicator, characterized by the word
“SHIFT,” is on, it means that the gear should be shifted.
Trip A And B
The “Trip computer” can be used to display, for all driving modes (Dynamic, Natural, Advanced Efficiency, and RACE) and with the ignition device ON, the measurements regarding the operating state of the vehicle. This function is characterized by two separate records, called “Trip A” and “Trip B” (the latter can be deactivated by the Information and Entertainment System), where the
“complete missions” (journeys) are recorded in a reciprocally independent manner. “Trip A” and “Trip B” are used to display the values relating to:
- Distance traveled
- Average fuel consumption
- Average speed
- Active trip
- Fuel consumption indicator
To reset the values, push and hold down the button on the windshield wiper stalk.
Performance
The displayed parameters differ according to the active mode. The modes which can be selected using the “Alfa DNA Pro” system are:
- Natural
The screen graphically reproduces some parameters closely linked to the efficiency of the driving style, with a view to limiting consumption.
- Advanced Efficiency
Dynamic Driving Style
The three center icons on the screen indicate the effectiveness of the driving style, linked to the following parameters: acceleration, deceleration, and gear shifts, with a view to limiting consumption. The bar below the icons shows current consumption and the green line represents the optimal area. The globe lights up gradually according to lower consumption.
- Dynamic
The displayed parameters are related to vehicle stability, and the graphs illustrate the trend of the longitudinal/lateral accelerations (G-meter information), considering gravity acceleration as a reference unit. Lateral acceleration peaks are also indicated.
- Race
Acceleration Stability Gauge
The displayed parameters are related to vehicle stability, and the graphs illustrate the trend of the longitudinal/lateral accelerations (G-meter information), considering gravity acceleration as a reference unit. Lateral acceleration peaks are also indicated.
Vehicle Range
Indicates the miles left before the fuel tank is empty. Displays the position by indicating the cardinal direction.
Failure Warning Lights
Area dedicated to displaying failures, the following symbols could be displayed on rotation:
- Low criticality symbols (yellow amber).
- High criticality symbols (red).
Odometer
Indicates the total miles traveled.
