IN AN EMERGENCY
98
❒ with a second cable, connect the
negative terminal (–) of the auxiliary
battery to an earthing point
Eon the
engine or the transmission of the car to
be started;
❒ start the engine; when the engine has
started, remove the leads, reversing the
order above.
If after a few attempts the engine does
not start, do not persist but contact a
dedicated Alfa Romeo Dealership.
IMPORTANT Do not connect the negative
terminals of the two batteries directly!
If the auxiliary battery is installed on
another car, check that there is no
accidental contact between metallic
parts of the two cars.
BUMP STARTING
Never, under any circumstances, jump
start the engine by pushing, towing or
coasting downhill.
FUEL CUT-OFF SYSTEM
OPERATION
This intervenes in the case of an impact
causing:
❒ the fuel supply cut-off with the engine
consequently switching off;
❒ automatic door lock release;
activation of all lights inside the car;
❒ the switching on of the hazard
warning lights.
The digital warning light and the
dedicated message on the display
indicate the intervention of the system.
Carefully check the vehicle for fuel leaks,
for instance in the engine compartment,
under the vehicle or near the tank area.
112)
111)This procedure must be performed
by qualified personnel as incorrect
actions may cause high-intensity
electrical discharge. Furthermore,
battery fluid is poisonous and corrosive:
avoid contact with skin and eyes. Keep
naked flames and lighted cigarettes away
from the battery and do not cause sparks.
IMPORTANT
13)Never use a fast battery charger to
start the engine as this could damage the
electronic systems and the ignition and
engine supply control units.

 Visually inspect condition of the accessory drive belt(s)
Inspect the conditions of toothed timing drive belt
Check handbrake lever travel and adjust, if necessary
(or every 12 months)
Use the diagnosis socket to check supply/engine and
gearbox/transmission management system operation and engine oil degradation
Check and, if necessary, top up oil level for the
twin clutch transmission
Replace spark plugs (1)
Replace accessory drive belt/s
Replace toothed timing drive belt (2)

Replace engine oil and oil filter (3)
Change brake fluid (or every 24 months)
(1) The following are essential to ensure correct operation and prevent serious damage to the engine: only use spark plugs of the same make and type
which are specially certified for such engines (see the information in the “Engine” paragraph in the “Technical specifications” chapter); strictly

Every 1,000 km or before long journeys,
check and, if necessary, top up the
following:
❒ engine coolant level;
❒ brake fluid;
❒ windscreen washer fluid;
❒ tyre inflation pressure and condition;
❒ operation of lighting system
(headlights, direction indicators, hazard
warning lights, etc.);
❒ operation of windscreen
washing/wiping system and
positioning/wear of wiper blade.
Every 3,000 km check and top up if

❒ short repeated distances (less than
7-8 km) and with external temperatures
below zero;
❒ engine often idling or driving long
distances at low speeds or long periods
of inactivity;
❒ you should perform the following
inspections more frequently than shown
in the Scheduled Servicing Plan:
❒ check front disk brake pad conditions
and wear;
❒ check cleanness of locks, bonnet and
boot and lever cleanness and lubrication;
❒ visually inspect condition of: engine,
gearbox, transmission, pipes and hoses
(exhaust - fuel system - brakes) and
rubber elements (gaiters - sleeves -
bushes - etc.);
❒ check battery charge and battery fluid
level (electrolyte);❒ visually inspect conditions of the
accessory drive belts;
