Service Schedule
According to
Service Schedule
For regular operation of Multijet versions with DPF, use only original oil. In an emergency (lacking the original product) only top up with
max. 0,5 l and then drive immediately to the nearest Alfa Romeo Authorized Service.
If using non original SAE 5W-40 products, oils with minimum ACEA A3 specifications for petrol engines and ACEA B4 specifications for
Diesel engines are admitted; in this event top engine performance is not guaranteed.
Use of products with low-quality properties than ACEA A3 and ACEA B4 could cause damages to the engine that are not covered by the
warranty. For very cold climate conditions, ask Alfa Romeo Authorized Service for the appropriate Seleniaproduct to use.

– extra-urban cycle: frequent ac-
celerating in all gears, simulating ex-
traurban use of the car; the speed varies
between 0 and 120 km/h;
– combined consumption: is cal-
culated weighing about 37% of urban
cycle consumption and about 63% of
extraurban consumption.IMPORTANT The type of route,
traffic situations, weather condi-
tions, driving style, general con-
ditions of the car, trim level/
equipment/accessories, load, cli-
mate control system, roof rack,
other situations that affect air
drag may lead to different fuel
consumption levels than those
measured.FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption figures given in
the table below are determined on the
basis of the homologation tests set
down by specific European Directives.
The procedures below are followed for
measuring consumption:
– urban cycle: cold starting followed
by driving that simulates urban use of
the car;
Fuel consumption according
to 1999/100/EC Directive Urban Extra-urban Combined
(litres x 100 km)
