general protection fuse blows.
IMPORTANT
10)Never replace a blown fuse with metal wires or other material.

WARNING

93
At the end of the operation
Proceed as follows:
❒ reposition the space-saver wheel;
❒ place the jack and the other tools in
the container;
❒ arrange the container and tools in the
luggage compartment.
95)The space-saver wheel (where
provided) is specific to your vehicle: do
not use it on other models, or use the
space-saver wheel of other models on
your vehicle. The space-saver wheel must
only be used in the event of an emergency.
Never use it for more than strictly
necessary and never exceed 80 km/h. On
the space-saver wheel there is an orange
label, summarising the main warnings
regarding space-saver wheel usage
restrictions. Never remove or cover the
label. The label contains the following
indications in four languages: “Warning!
For temporary use only! 80 km/h max.!
Replace by standard wheel as soon as
possible. Never cover this indication”.
IMPORTANT
96)Use your hazard lights, warning
triangle, etc. to show that your car is
stationary in compliance with regulations.
Passengers should get out of the car,
particularly if it is heavily loaded, and
wait for the wheel to be changed away
from the traffic. On hills or uneven roads,
use chocks or appropriate objects to
block the wheels of the vehicle.
97) The vehicle’s driving characteristics
will be modified with the space-saver
wheel fitted. Avoid violent acceleration
and braking, abrupt steering and fast
cornering. The overall duration of the
space-saver wheel is about 3000 km,
after which the relevant tyre must be
replaced with another one of the same
type. Never install a standard tyre on a
rim that is designed for use with a space-
saver wheel. Have the wheel repaired and
refitted as soon as possible. Using two or
more space-saver wheels at the same
time is forbidden.
Do not grease the threads of the stud
bolts before fitting them: they might slip
out when driving!98) The jack is a tool developed and
designed only for changing a wheel, if a
tyre gets punctured or damaged, on the
vehicle with which it is supplied or on
other vehicles of the same model.
Any other use, e.g. to jack up other vehicle
models or different things, is strictly
prohibited. Never use it to carry out
maintenance or repairs under the vehicle
or to change summer/winter wheels and
vice versa. Never position yourself under
a jacked vehicle. If any work under the
vehicle is necessary, contact the Alfa
Romeo Service Network. Incorrectly
positioning the jack may cause the vehicle
to fall: use it only in the positions
indicated. Do not use the jack for loads
higher than the one shown on its label.
Never start the engine with vehicle raised.
If the vehicle is raised more than
necessary, everything can become more
unstable, with the risk of the vehicle
dropping violently. Thus, lift the vehicle
only as needed in order to access the
spare tyre.
99) The space-saver wheel cannot be
fitted with snow chains.

IN AN EMERGENCY
100
113)Before towing, turn the ignition key
to the MAR position and then to STOP
without removing it. The steering column
will automatically lock when the key is
removed and the wheels cannot be
steered. Also check that the transmission
is in neutral (N).
114) When towing, remember that the
assistance of the brake servo is absent.
Consequently, more force is required at
the pedal in order to brake. Do not use
flexible cables when towing and avoid
jerky movements. Make sure not to
damage parts in contact with the car
while towing.
When towing the vehicle, you must
comply with all specific traffic
regulations and adopt an appropriate
driving behaviour.
Do not start the engine while towing the
car. Before tightening the ring, clean the
threaded housing thoroughly. Make sure
that the ring is fully fastened in the
housing before towing the vehicle.
IMPORTANT115) The tow hook should be used only
for emergencies on the road. You are
allowed to tow the vehicle for short
distances using an appropriate device in
accordance with the highway code (a rigid
bar), to move the vehicle on the road in
readiness for towing or transporting via a
breakdown vehicle.
Tow hooks MUST NOT be used to tow
vehicles off the road or where there are
obstacles and/or for towing operations
using cables or other non-rigid devices.
In compliance with the above conditions,
towing must take place with the two
vehicles (one towing, the other towed)
aligned as much as possible along the
same centre line.

SERVICING AND CARE
118
Proceed as follows to reposition:
❒ tighten the screws with folding ring
1 fig. 103 in the housings on the floor;
❒ unite the Velcro fabric strips 2 of the
mats with those on the floor, taking care
to apply light pressure and ensure that
the fastening is efficient.
132)
SEATS AND FABRIC OR
MICROFIBRE PARTS
Remove dust with a soft brush or a
vacuum cleaner.
For cleaning microfibre upholstery
(on some versions, including steering
wheel).
It is advisable to moisten the brush.
Rub the seats with a sponge moistened
with a solution of water and neutral
detergent.
LEATHER SEATS
(where provided)
Remove the dry dirt with a chamois or
slightly damp cloth, without exerting too
much pressure.
Remove any liquid or grease stains using
an absorbent dry cloth, without rubbing.
Then clean with a soft cloth or buckskin
cloth dampened with water and mild
soap. If the stain persists, use specific
products and observe the instructions
carefully.
IMPORTANT Never use alcohol.
Make sure that the cleaning products
used contain no alcohol or alcohol
derivatives, even in small quantities.
PLASTIC, CARBON AND
COATED PARTS
Clean interior plastic and visible carbon
parts with a damp cloth (if possible made
from microfibre), and a solution of water
and neutral, non-abrasive detergent.
To clean oily or persistent stains, use
specific products free from solvents and
designed to maintain the original
appearance and colour of the
components.
Remove any dust using a microfibre cloth,
if necessary moistened with water.
The use of paper tissues is not
recommended as these may leave
residues.
26)
LEATHER UPHOLSTERY
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Use only water and mild soap to clean
these parts. Never use alcohol or
alcohol-based products.
Before using a specific product for
cleaning interiors, make sure that it does
not contain spirit and/or alcohol based
substances.
130)Never use flammable products, such
as petroleum ether or modified petrol, to
clean the inside of the car. The
electrostatic charges which are
generated by rubbing during the cleaning
operation may cause a fire.
131)Do not keep aerosol cans in the car:
danger of explosion.
Aerosol cans must not be exposed to a
temperature exceeding 50°C.
When the vehicle is exposed to sunlight,
the internal temperature can greatly
exceed this value.
132)It is essential that there is nothing
under the pedals: make sure the mats are
lying flat and do not get in the way of the
pedals.
IMPORTANT
26)Never use alcohol, petrols and
derivatives to clean the dashboard and
instrument panel lens.
