ALFA ACTIVE SUSPENSION
(AAS) — IF EQUIPPED
The system continuously monitors the
damping of the suspension through the actu
-
ator installed on each shock absorber. The
calibration of the shock absorbers can be
adjusted to the conditions of the road
surface and to the dynamic conditions of the
vehicle, improving its comfort and road
handling.
Even while driving, the driver can choose
between two types of suspension calibration:
a more sporty ride or a more comfortable one.
This is only available in "d", or "RACE" mode
(RACE mode is Quadrifolgio exclusive).
By pushing the button, the system will work
with the shock absorber calibration which
favors driving comfort.

STOP/START SYSTEM
Stop/Start System
The Stop/Start system automatically shuts
off the engine during a vehicle stop if the
required conditions are met. Releasing the
brake pedal or accelerator pedal will auto
-
matically restart the engine.
The function was developed to increase
vehicle efficiency by reducing fuel consump
-
tion, gas emissions, and sound pollution.
Operating Mode
Stopping the Engine
With vehicle at a standstill and brake pedal
pressed, the engine switches off if the gear
selector is in a position other than REVERSE
(R).
The system does not operate when the gear
selector is in REVERSE (R), in order to
making parking maneuvers easier.
In the event of stops uphill, engine switching
off is disabled to make the "Hill Start Assist"
function available (works only with running
engine).
NOTE: The engine can only be automatically
stopped after having run at about 6 mph
(10 km/h). After an automatic restart, the
vehicle only needs to exceed a speed of
0.3 mph (0.5 km/h) to stop the engine.
Engine stopping is signaled by the symbol
lighting up on the instrument cluster display.
Restarting the Engine
To restart the engine, release the brake
pedal.
With the brake pressed and the transmission
in automatic mode DRIVE (D), the engine
will restart by shifting to REVERSE (R), to
PARK (P) or to "AutoStick".
With brake pressed if the gear selector is in
"AutoStick" mode, the engine will restart by
shifting to PARK (P) or by moving the
selector to + or -.
