REFUELLINGOnly refuel with unleaded petrol with octane rating (RON) not less than 95, in compliance with the European specification EN228. In particular, the engine of
Alfa 4C has been designed to comply with all emission limits while simultaneously guaranteeing minimal consumption and maximum performance, using
premium-quality unleaded petrol with octane rating (RON) 98 or higher. The use of petrol that does not conform to the specification indicated may cause the
Uwarning light to switch on and the irregular operation of the engine.
STARTING THE ENGINEMake sure that the handbrake is engaged. Press the brake pedal and, without pressing the accelerator, turn the ignition key to AVV;
release it as soon as the engine has started.
PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIALThe catalytic converter develops high temperatures during operation. Do not park the vehicle on grass, dry leaves,
pine needles or other flammable material: risk of fire.
ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIESIf, after buying the vehicle, you decide to add electrical accessories (with the risk of gradually draining the battery), contact a Alfa Romeo Dealership.
They can calculate the overall electrical requirement and check that the vehicle’s electric system can support the required load.

REFUELLING THE CAR
The car features the “Fast Fuel” system,
which prevents refuelling with incorrect
fuels (e.g. diesel for a petrol engine).
Stop the engine before refuelling.
Only refuel with unleaded petrol with
octane rating (RON) not less than 95, in
compliance with the European
specification EN228. In particular, the
engine of Alfa 4C has been designed to
comply with all emission limits while
simultaneously guaranteeing minimal
consumption and maximum performance,
using premium-quality unleaded petrol
with octane rating (RON) 98 or higher.
In order to prevent damage to the
catalytic converter never introduce even
the smallest amount of leaded petrol,
even in the event of an emergency.
IMPORTANT An inefficient catalytic
converter leads to harmful exhaust
emissions, thus contributing to air
pollution.
FILLING THE TANK
To ensure that you fill the tank
completely, top up twice after the first
click of the fuel supply gun. Further top-
ups could cause faults in the fuel feeding
system.
REFUELLING PROCEDURE
The car features a “Fast Fuel” device,
integrated with the opening for the fuel
tank: it opens and recloses automatically
when the fuel supply gun is
inserted/removed.
The “Fast Fuel” device is provided with an
inhibitor which prevents refuelling with
incorrect fuel.
The refuelling procedure described below
is illustrated on the label
fig. 51 located inside the fuel flap.
The label also indicates the fuel type
(UNLEADED FUEL=petrol).
Procedure
❒ open flap 1 fig. 52, pulling it outwards;
❒ introduce the dispenser in the filler
and refuel;
❒ after refuelling, before removing the
dispenser, wait for at least 10 seconds in
order for the fuel to flow inside the tank;
❒ then remove the dispenser from the
filler and close flap 1.
The flap is provided with a dust boot 2
which prevents the introduction of dirt
and dust into the end of the filling when
the flap is closed.
