ALFA ROMEO CODE SYSTEM
The Alfa Romeo Code prevents
unauthorised use of the vehicle, disabling
engine starting.
Operation
Each time the car is started by turning
the ignition key to MAR, the Alfa Romeo
CODE system control unit sends an
acknowledgement code to the
Powertrain Control Module to
deactivate the inhibitor.
The code is sent only if the Alfa Romeo
CODE system control unit has
recognised the code transmitted by the
key.
Each time the ignition key is turned to
STOP, the Alfa Romeo CODE system
deactivates the functions of the
Powertrain Control Module.
Activation of warning light while
driving
❒ If the Ydigital warning light on the
display switches on, this means that the
system is running a self-diagnosis (for
example due to a voltage drop).
❒ If the Ydigital warning light remains
on, contact the dedicated Alfa Romeo
Dealership.
ALARM SYSTEM

OPERATION OF THE ALARM
Operation of the alarm is indicated by an
acoustic and visual signal (flashing of the
direction indicators for several seconds).
The alarm activation modes may vary
according to the market. There is a
maximum number of acoustic/visual
cycles. When this is reached the system
returns to normal operation.
IMPORTANT The alarm is adapted
by the Manufacturer to meet the
requirements of the various countries
where the vehicle is marketed.
ARM ALARM
With the doors and tailgate closed and
the ignition key either turned to STOP or
removed, point the key with remote
control towards the car then press and

For some versions, the system emits an
acoustic signal and activates door
locking.
