Refueling
Do not use fuel containing methanol or ethanol E85. Using these mixtures may cause misfiring and driving issues, as well as damage vital
components of the supply system.For
further details on the use of the correct fuel, see
Ú
page 263
Starting The Engine
Make sure that the electric parking brake is engaged and that the transmission is in PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N). Next, press the brake
pedal, and then push the engine START/STOP button.
Parking On Flammable Material
The catalytic converter develops high temperatures during operation. Do not park the vehicle on potential fire hazards such as: grass, dry
leaves, pine needles or other flammable material.
Respecting The Environment
The vehicle is fitted with a system that carries out a continuous diagnosis of the emission-related components in order to help protect the
environment.
Electrical Accessories
If you decide to add electrical accessories after purchasing the vehicle, with the risk of gradually draining the battery, contact an autho -
rized Alfa Romeo dealer. They can calculate the overall electrical requirement and check that the vehicle's electric system can support
the required load.
Scheduled Servicing
Correctly performed maintenance procedures are essential for ensuring that your vehicle continuously maintains its quality in perfor -
mance and safety features, environmental friendliness, and low running costs.

REMOTE START — IF EQUIPPED
This system uses the key fob to start
the engine conveniently from
outside the vehicle while still main-
taining security.
NOTE:
Obstructions between the vehicle and key fob
may reduce this range
Ú
page 273.
How To Use Remote Start
Push the Remote Start button on the key fob
twice within five seconds. The vehicle doors
will lock, the turn signals will flash twice, and
the horn will chirp twice. Pushing the Remote
Start button a third time shuts the engine off.
NOTE:
With Remote Start, the engine will only run
for 15 minutes.
Remote Start can only be used twice.
If an engine fault is present or fuel level is
low, the vehicle will start and then shut
down in 10 seconds.
The park lamps will turn on and remain on
during Remote Start mode.
For security, power window operation is
disabled when the vehicle is in the Remote
Start mode.
The ignition must be placed in the ACC posi -
tion before the Remote Start sequence can
be repeated for a third cycle.
All of the following conditions must be met
before the engine will Remote Start:
Gear selector in PARK
Doors closed
Hood closed
Trunk closed
Hazard switch off
Brake switch inactive (brake pedal not
pushed)
Battery at an acceptable charge level
PANIC button not pushed
System not disabled from previous remote
start event
Vehicle Security system indicator flashing
Ignition in OFF position
Fuel level meets minimum requirement
Vehicle Security system is not signaling an
intrusion
Malfunction Indicator Light is not illuminated
Do not leave the key fob in or near the
vehicle, or in a location accessible to chil -
dren, and do not leave the ignition of a
vehicle equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go
in the ON/RUN mode. A child could
operate power windows, other controls, or
move the vehicle.
Do not leave children or animals inside
parked vehicles in hot weather. Interior
heat build-up may cause serious injury or
death.
CAUTION!
An unlocked vehicle is an invitation for
thieves. Always remove key fob from the
vehicle and lock all doors when leaving the
vehicle unattended.
WARNING! (Continued) WARNING!
Do not start or run an engine in a closed
garage or confined area. Exhaust gas
contains Carbon Monoxide (CO) which is
odorless and colorless. Carbon Monoxide
is poisonous and can cause serious injury
or death when inhaled.
Keep key fobs away from children. Opera -
tion of the Remote Start system, windows,
door locks or other controls could cause
serious injury or death.
21_GA_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 20

the number of buttons and knobs indicate that
the selected feature is on/off. If no operation
is performed for a predetermined time, the
pop-up will close on the display.
Humidity Sensor
The Humidity Sensor helps prevent the
windows from fogging up. The AUTO function
(indicator illuminated) must be on for the
Humidity Sensor to function.
When outside temperature is low, the system
may turn the compressor on and turn air recir-
culation off for safer driving.
Stop/Start
The Stop/Start system shuts off the engine
when the vehicle speed is 0 mph (0 km/h), as
a fuel conservation measure.
In order to maintain comfort in the cabin, the
Stop/Start feature will not activate if any of the
following conditions exist:
The climate control system is in AUTO mode
(indicator illuminated), and the vehicle has
yet to reach the set temperature
The climate control system is in LO maximum
cooling
The climate control system is in HI maximum
heating
The climate control system is in the MAX-DEF
status
When the Stop/Start system is active, the
engine will restart if the inside temperature
changes significantly, or if the LO setting, or
MAX-DEF setting, is activated.
With Stop/Start system on (engine is off), air
flow is reduced to keep the compartment
comfort conditions for longer.
Until the temperature drastically changes within
the cabin, the climate control system will
continue to maintain the temperature while the
engine is off. By deactivating the Stop/Start
system with the button (located by the head
-
light switch), the climate control system operates
normally according to the settings.
NOTE:
In harsh climate conditions, limit the use of
the Stop/Start system to prevent the
compressor from continuously switching on
and off. This will prevent rapid misting of the
windows and the accumulation of humidity
in the passenger compartment.
When the Stop/Start system is on, the
climate control system will always take air in
from outside, reducing the probability of the
windows fogging up.
System Maintenance
In winter months, the Climate Control system
must be turned on at least once a month for
approximately ten minutes.
Have the system inspected at an authorized
dealer before the summer.
INTERIOR STORAGE AND
EQUIPMENT
Glove Compartment
The glove compartment is located on the
passenger side of the instrument panel.
Opening The Glove Compartment
Pull the release handle to open the glove
compartment.
When the glove compartment is opened, a
light turns on to illuminate the inside of the
compartment.
NOTE:
If equipped with a lock, unlock the glove
compartment by placing the emergency key
in the lock on the handle.
Do not insert large objects that will prevent
the glove compartment from closing
completely.
