NOTE For versions with manual
transmission, with the ignition device at
ON, if 30 minutes pass and the engine
stopped, the ignition device will
automatically move to the STOP position.
NOTE With engine started, it is possible
to go away from the vehicle taking the
electronic key with you. The engine will
still be running. The vehicle will indicate
the absence of the key on board when the
door is closed.
For more information on the engine
start-up, see the description in the
"Starting the engine" paragraph, in the
"Starting and driving" chapter.
STARTING WITH FLAT KEY BATTERY
If the remote control battery is flat,
proceed as follows to start the vehicle:
lift the front armrest;
lay the key on the shape which is found
on the bottom of the compartment.
STEERING LOCK(where provided)
Activation
The steering lock is engaged when the

device button at STOP.
Deactivation
The steering lock disengages when the
ignition device is pressed and the
electronic key is recognised.
WARNING
1)Always take the key with you when you
leave your vehicle to prevent someone from
accidentally operating the controls.

3)Before leaving the vehicle, ALWAYS
engage the handbrake. On versions
equipped with automatic transmission,
activate mode P (Park) and press the ignition
device to set it to STOP. When leaving the
vehicle, always lock all the doors by pressing
the button on the handle.
4)For versions equipped with the Keyless
Start system, do not leave the electronic key
inside or near the car or in a place accessible
to children. Do not leave the vehicle with the
ignition device in ON position. A child could
activate the electric window winders, other
controls or even start the vehicle.
5)If the ignition device has been tampered
with (e.g. an attempted theft), have it
checked over by the Alfa Romeo Dealership
before driving again.ENGINE IMMOBILIZER
The Engine Immobilizer system prevents
unauthorised use of the vehicle
preventing to start the engine.
The system does not need to be
enabled/activated: operation is
automatic, regardless of the fact that the
vehicle's doors are locked or unlocked.
When the ignition device is set to ON, the
Engine Immobilizer system identifies the
code transmitted by the key. If the code
is recognised as valid, the Engine
Immobilizer system enables engine
starting.
When the ignition device is brought back
to STOP, the Engine Immobilizer system
deactivates the control unit controlling
the engine, thus preventing its starting.
For the correct engine starting
procedures, see the instructions in the
"Starting the engine" paragraph,
"Starting and driving" chapter.Irregular operation
If, during starting, the key code is not
correctly recognised, theicon is
displayed on the instrument panel (see
the instructions in the "Warning lights and
messages" paragraph, "Knowing the
instrument panel" chapter). This
condition leads to the engine switching
off after 2 seconds. In this case, bring the
ignition device to STOP and then to ON; if
it is still blocked, try with the other keys
provided. If it is still not possible to start
the engine, contact an Alfa Romeo
Dealership.
If the
icon is displayed while driving,
this means that the system is running a
self-diagnosis (e.g. due to a voltage drop).
If the display persists, contact an Alfa
Romeo Dealership.

will not open the door but will only realign
the lock release device. To open the door,
the outside handle must be used. The
door central locking/unlocking buttons
are not deactivated when the emergency
lock is engaged.
WARNING
6)Once the Power Lock system is engaged,
it is impossible to open the doors from inside
the vehicle. Before getting out of the car,
please therefore check that there is no-one
left inside.
7)NEVER leave children unattended inside
the car, let alone leave the car with the doors
unlocked in a place that children can access
easily. Children may seriously, or even
fatally, injure themselves. Also ensure that
children do not inadvertently operate the
electric parking brake, the brake pedal or the
transmission lever.8)Always use this device when carrying
children. After engaging the child lock on
both rear doors, check for effective
engagement by trying to open a door with
the internal handle.
IMPORTANT
2)Make sure to take the key with you once a
door or the boot is locked, to prevent
forgetting the key inside the vehicle. If the
key has been locked in, it can only be
recovered using the second provided key.
3)The operation of the recognition system
depends on various factors, such as, for
example, any electromagnetic wave
interference from external sources (e.g.
mobile phones), the charge of the battery in
the electronic key and the presence of metal
objects near the key or the car. In these
cases it is still possible to unlock the doors
by using the metal insert in the electronic key
(see description on the following pages).

24)Do not tamper with nor carry out any
intervention on the radar sensor or on the
camera on the windscreen. In the event of a
sensor failure, contact an Alfa Romeo
Dealership.
25)Do not wash with high-pressure jets in
the bumper lower area: in particular do not
operate on the system's electrical connector.
26)Be careful in the case of repairs and new
paintings in the area around the sensor
(panel covering the sensor on the left side of
the bumper). In the event of a frontal impact
the sensor may automatically deactivate
and display a warning to indicate that the
sensor needs to be repaired. Even without a
malfunction warning, deactivate the system
operation if you think that the position of the
radar sensor has changed (e.g. due to
low-speed frontal impact as during parking
manoeuvres). In these cases, go to an Alfa
Romeo Dealership to have the radar sensor
realigned or replaced.
27)When towing a trailer, a vehicle or during
loading manoeuvres on a vehicle transporter
(or in vehicle for transport), the system must
be deactivated via the Connect system.
28)The Tire Repair Kit, provided with the
vehicle, is compatible with the TPMS
sensors. Using sealants different from that
in the original kit may compromise its
operation. If sealants not equivalent with the
original ones are used, it is recommended to
have the TPMS sensor operation checked by
a qualified repair centre.OCCUPANT PROTECTION
SYSTEMS
Some of the most important safety
equipment of the vehicle comprise the
following protection systems:
seat belts;
SBA (Seat Belt Alert) System;
head restraints;
child restraint systems;
Front airbags and side bags.
Read the information given the following
pages with the utmost care. It is of
fundamental importance that the
protection systems are used in the
correct way to guarantee the maximum
possible safety level for the driver and
the passengers.
For the description of the head restraint
adjustment see the "Head restraints"
paragraph in the "Knowing your vehicle"
chapter.
SEAT BELTS
All the seatbelts have three anchoring
points each with its own retractor.
The retractor mechanism operates
locking the belt in the event of sharp
braking or strong deceleration due to an
impact. This allows the belt strap to slide
freely and to adapt to the body of the
occupant. In the event of an accident, the
belt will lock reducing the risk of impact
inside the passenger compartment and
of being projected outside the vehicle.
The driver is responsible for respecting,
and ensuring that all the other occupants
of the vehicle also respect, the local laws
in force in relation to the use of the seat
belts.
Always fasten the seat belts before
setting off.
USING THE SEAT BELTS
The seat belt should be worn keeping the
chest straight and rested against the
backrest.
To fasten the seat belts, hold the tongue
1 fig. 76 and insert it into the buckle 2,
until it clicks into place.
