THE ALFA ROMEO
CODE SYSTEM
To increase protection against attempted
theft, the car is fitted with an electronic en-
gine lock system (Alfa Romeo CODE) which
is activated automatically when the key is
removed from the ignition. In fact the grip
of each key contains an electronic device
which modulates the radio frequency signal
transmitted when the engine is started by a
special aerial incorporated in the ignition
switch. This modulated signal is the “pass-
word” by which the control unit recognises
the key and only in this condition can the
engine be started.
KEYS
Two keys are delivered together with the
car, (A-fig. 2) with metal insert and re-
mote control function.
The key remote control operates:
– Centralised door unlocking/locking
– Tailgate opening
– Electronic alarm on/off (if existing)
– Window and sunroof (if existing) un-
locking/locking.

SYMBOLS
On some of the components making up
your
Alfa 147 GTA, or near to them,
special coloured labels have been attached.
These labels bear symbols that remind you
of the precautions to be taken as regards that
particular component.
A summary list of the symbols (fig. 1) is
to be found under the bonnet.

HOW TO CUT OFF
THE ALARM SYSTEM
To deactivate the alarm system complete-
ly (for instance during prolonged inactivity
of the vehicle) simply lock the car turning
the key in the lock.
MINISTERIAL CERTIFICATION
In accordance with the law in force in each
country, on the subject of radio frequency,
we wish to point out that for the markets in
which the transmitter needs to be marked,
the certification number is given on the com-
ponent.
Depending on the versions/markets, the
code may also be given on the transmitter
and/or on the receiver.
IGNITION DEVICE
SWITCH(fig. 8)
The key can be turned to one of four po-
sitions:
–STOP: engine switched off, key can be
removed, engine inhibitor engaged, steer-
ing lock engaged, services excluded apart
from those supplied directly (e.g. hazard
warning lights).
–MAR: drive position. The engine lock
is deactivated and all electrical devices are
powered.
IMPORTANTDo not leave the key in
this position when the engine is stopped.
–AV V: instable position for starting the
engine.IMPORTANTIf the engine fails to start
move the key back to STOPand repeat.
The ignition switch has a safety device
which prevents passage to AV Vwhen the
engine is running.
–PARK: engine switched off, key can
be removed, engine lock engaged, steer-
ing lock engaged, sidelights switched on au-
tomatically.
IMPORTANTTo turn the key to the
PARKposition, button (A) on the switch
