AIR CLEANER
The air cleaner is connected to the tem-
perature and air flow sensors which send
to the control unit the electric signals need-
ed for correct operation of the injection and
ignition system.
It must therefore always be in perfect con-
ditions, to ensure correct operation of the
engine, low consumption and exhaust emis-
sion levels.
If the operations concern-
ing cleaner replacement
are not carried out correct-
ly and with the due precautions,
they may compromise the travel-
ling safety of the vehicle. You are
recommended to have this opera-
tion carried out by Alfa Romeo Au-
thorised Services.
Any attempt to clean the
cleaner may damage it,
leading to serious engine
damage.If the car is habitually
used in dusty areas, the
cleaner should be replaced
at shorter intervals than those
specified in the Programmed Main-
tenance Schedule.
POLLEN FILTER
This has a mechanical/electrostatic air fil-
tering action, provided that the windows and
doors are shut.
Have the dust/pollen filter checked once
a year by Alfa Romeo Authorised Services,
preferably at the onset of summer.
If the car is mainly used in dusty or heav-
ily polluted areas, the filter should be
changed at more frequent intervals than
specified in the Scheduled Maintenance Pro-
gramme.
IMPORTANTThe failure to replace the
pollen filter can considerably reduce the ef-
fectiveness of the climate control system.

CONSUMPTION ACCORDING TO EEC 1999/100/ (litres x 100 km)
FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption values shown in the
following tables were established during ho-
mologation tests prescribed in specific Eu-
ropean Directives.
The test conditions adopted include the fol-
lowing:
–an urban cycle: this includes cold
starting followed by simulation of a mixed
urban route;–an extraurban cycle: this includes
frequent accelerating in all gears, simulat-
ing normal extraurban use of the vehicle;
the speed varies between 0 and 120 kph;
–combined consumption: this is cal-
culated by considering a route consisting of
about 37% urban cycle and 63% extraur-
ban cycle.WARNING The type of route, traf-
fic conditions, weather conditions,
driving style, conditions of the ve-
hicle, trim level/equipment/ acces-
sories, vehicle load, presence of roof
rack, use of the climate control sys-
tem, other items that negatively af-
fect the aerodynamics of the vehi-
cle or wind resistance lead to dif-
ferent fuel consumption levels than
those measured by the above-men-
tioned procedures (see “Reducing
running costs and environment pol-
lution“ in the chapter “Correct use
of the car“).
