SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct servicing is crucial for
guaranteeing a long life for the vehicle
under the best conditions.
For this reason, Alfa Romeo has planned
a series of checks and services at fixed
distance intervals and, for
versions/markets, where provided, at
fixed time intervals, as described in the
Scheduled Servicing Plan.
Before each service, it is always
necessary to carefully follow the
instructions in the Scheduled Servicing
Plan (e.g. periodically check level of
fluids, tyre pressure, etc.).
Scheduled Servicing is offered by an Alfa
Romeo Dealership according to a set
time schedule. If, during each operation,
in addition to the ones scheduled, the
need arises for further replacements or
repairs, these may be carried out with the
owner's explicit consent only.
IMPORTANT Scheduled Servicing
Coupons are required by the
Manufacturer. Failure to have them
carried out may invalidate the warranty.
It is advisable to inform the Alfa Romeo
Dealership of any small operating
irregularities without waiting for the next
service.
PERIODIC CHECKS
Every year or every600mi (1,000 km) or
before long trips check and, if necessary,
top up:
engine coolant level;
brake fluid level (if insufficient, see an
Alfa Romeo dealership as soon as
possible);
windscreen washer fluid level;
tyre inflation pressure and condition;
operation of lighting system
(headlights, direction indicators, hazard
warning lights, etc.);
operation of screen washing/wiping
system and positioning/wear of wiper
blades.
Every1,800mi (3,000 km), check and
top up if required: engine oil level.
HEAVY USAGE OF THE CAR
If the vehicle is used under one of the
following conditions:
dusty roads;
short, repeated journeys (less than
4-5 mi (7-8 km)) at sub-zero outside
temperatures;
engine often idling or driving long
distances at low speeds or long periods
of inactivity;
in the event of a long period of
inactivity;
the following checks must be carried outmore often than indicated in the
Scheduled Servicing Plan:
check front and rear disc brake pad
condition and wear;
check cleanliness of bonnet and boot
locks, cleanliness and lubrication of
linkage;
visually inspect conditions 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;
check and, if necessary, change engine
oil and replace oil filter;

IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
WARNING
INTERIOR FITTINGS
Do not travel with the storage compartment open: it may injure the front seat occupants in the event of an accident.
The cigar lighter gets extremely hot. Handle it carefully and make sure that children don’t use it: risk of fire and/or burns.
Do not use the ashtray as a waste paper basket: it may catch fire in contact with cigarette stubs.
INTERIOR
Never use flammable products, such as petrol ether or rectified petrol to clean the inside of the car. The electrostatic charges which are generated
by rubbing during the cleaning operation may cause a fire.
Do not keep aerosol cans in the car: they might explode. 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.
There must be no obstacles on the floor underneath the pedals; make sure that mats are always flat and do not interfere with the pedals.
Do not use aggressive organic substance such as: gasoline, kerosene, oil, acetone or solvents.
SUPPLY
Modifications or repairs to the supply system that are not carried out correctly or do not take the system technical specifications into account can
cause malfunctions leading to the risk of fire.
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTIONSYSTEMS
The catalytic converter and particulate filter (DPF) reach very high temperatures during operation. Therefore do not park the vehicle on flammable
materials (e.g. grass, dry leaves, pine needles, etc.): fire hazard.
IMPORTANT
EXTENDED CAR INACTIVITY
When you need to disconnect or remove the battery, do not close the boot. In order to avoid possible accidental closure, it is recommended to place
an obstacle (e.g. a cloth) on the lock that would physically avoid closure.
INTERIOR
Never use alcohol, petrols and derivatives to clean the dashboard and instrument panel lens.
