to measure the charge and discharge
voltage and calculate the charge level
and the general condition of the battery.
The sensor is placed next to the negative
terminal (-) of the battery.
For a correct charge/discharge
procedure, the charge voltage must go
through the IBS sensor.
Turn the charger on and follow the
instructions on the user's manual to
completely recharge the battery;
when the battery is charged, turn the
charger off before disconnecting it from
the battery;
first disconnect the black cable
terminal of the battery charger and then
the red cable terminal;
refit the protective cover of the
positive terminal of the battery and the
access cover to the battery
compartment.
IMPORTANT If a "quick-type" battery
charger is used with the battery fitted on
the vehicle, before connecting it
disconnect both cables of the battery
itself. Do not use a "quick-type" battery
charger to provide the starting voltage.

167)When charging or recharging the
battery, always follow the precautions
listed.
IMPORTANT
71)When you need to disconnect or remove
the battery, do not close the boot. Open the

AIR CONDITIONINGSYSTEM
MAINTENANCE
79) 80)
To ensure the best possible performance,
the air conditioning system must be
checked and undergo maintenance at an
Alfa Romeo Dealership at the beginning
of the summer.
WINDSCREEN WIPER
Raising the windscreen wiper blades
("Service position" function)
The "Service position" function allows the
driver to replace the windscreen wiper
blades more easily. It is also
recommended to activate this function
when it is snowing and to make it easier
to remove any dirt deposits in the area
where the blades are normally
positioned, when washing.
Activation of the function
To activate this function, deactivate the
windscreen wiper (ring nut fig. 158 in
positionO) before setting the ignition
device to STOP.

SERVICING AND CARE
Page 177 of 232
This function can only be activated within
2 minutes of setting the ignition device
to STOP.
To activate this function, move the lever
upwards (unstable position) for at least
three seconds.
If, after using the function, the ignition
device is set back to ON with the blades
in a position other than rest position (at
the base of the windscreen), they will only
return to rest position following a
command given using the stalk (stalk
upwards, into unstable position) or when
a speed of 3 mph (5 km/h) is exceeded.
Replacing the windscreen wiper blades
Proceed as follows:
raise the wiper arm, press tab
fig. 159 of the attachment spring and
remove the blade from the arm;
fit the new blade, inserting the tab in
the dedicated housing in the arm and
checking that it is locked;
lower the wiper arm onto the
windscreen.
IMPORTANT Do not operate the
windscreen wiper with the blades lifted
from the windscreen.
Windscreen washer
The window washer nozzles are fixed. If
there is no jet of fluid, firstly check that
there is fluid in the reservoir (see
paragraph “Engine compartment” in this
chapter).
Then check that the nozzle holes are not
clogged; use a needle to unblock them if
necessary.
WARNING
168)The air intake system (air cleaner,
rubber hoses, etc.) can be a protection in the
case of blowbacks from the engine. DO NOT
REMOVE this system unless you need to
carry out repair or servicing operations.
Before starting the engine, ensure that the
system has not been removed: failure to
observe this precaution may result in serious
injury.
169)Exhaust emissions are very dangerous,
and may be lethal. They contain carbon
monoxide, a colourless, odourless gas which
can cause fainting and poisoning if inhaled.
170)The exhaust system may reach high
temperatures and may cause a fire if the
vehicle is parked on flammable material. Dry
grass or leaves can also catch fire if they
come into contact with the exhaust system.
Do not park or use the vehicle in a place in
which the exhaust system might come into
contact with flammable material.
IMPORTANT
72)Incorrect servicing of the vehicle or
failure to carry out operations or repairs
(when necessary) may lead to more
expensive repairs, damage to other
components or have a negative impact on
the vehicle performance. Have any
malfunction inspected immediately by an
Alfa Romeo Dealership.
