ALARM(for versions/markets, where provided)ALARM ACTIVATIONThe alarm activates in the following cases:
❒wrongful opening of a door/bonnet/luggage compartment
(perimeter protection);
❒wrongful operation of the ignition switch (key turned to MAR);
❒cutting of the battery cables;
❒movement inside the passenger compartment (volumetric protection);
❒anomalous lifting/tilting of the car (for versions/markets, where
provided).
Operation of the alarm is indicated by an acoustic and visual signal
(flashing of the direction indicators for several seconds). The alarm
activation modes may vary according to the market. There is a
maximum number of acoustic/visual cycles. When this is reached the
system returns to normal operation.
IMPORTANT The engine locking function is guaranteed by the Alfa
Romeo CODE, which is automatically activated when the ignition key
is extracted from the ignition switch.
IMPORTANT The alarm is adapted to meet requirements in various
countries.
SWITCHING ON THE ALARMWith the doors and bonnet closed and the ignition key either turned to
STOP or removed, direct the key with the remote control towards the
car, then press and release the
button. Except for specific markets,
the system emits a visual and acoustic signal and enables door locking.
A self-diagnosis stage precedes the switching on of the alarm: in the
event of faults, the system will generate a further acoustic and/or
visual signal through the LED on the dashboard.
If after the alarm is switched on, a second acoustic signal is emitted
and/or a visual signal via the LED on the dashboard, wait about
4 seconds and switch off the alarm by pressing the
button, check
that the doors, bonnet and luggage compartment are closed correctly
and then reactivate the system by pressing the
button.
If the alarm emits an acoustic signal even when the doors, bonnet and
boot are correctly closed, a fault has occurred in system operation:
in this case, contact Alfa Romeo Authorized Services.
ALARM SELF-ACTIVATION(for versions/markets, where provided)
If the alarm has not been activated using the remote control, once
about 30 seconds have elapsed from when the ignition key was turned
to STOP and a door or the tailgate was last opened and then closed,
the alarm activates automatically.
This is indicated by the LED on the button A fig. 18 lighting up
intermittently and the indications of activation described previously.
To deactivate the alarm, press the
button on the remote control.
The alarm also activates when the doors are closed by turning the
metal insert of the key in the driver side door latch. If the system
self-activates, the doors are not locked.

The restoration procedure must be performed as described below with
the doors closed:
❒completely open the driver's door window, holding the operating
button down for at least three seconds after the (lower) end of travel
position;
❒completely raise the driver side window and hold the button down
for at least 3 seconds once the (upper) end of travel position has
been reached;
❒proceed in the same way as described in points 1 and 2 for the
passenger side door;
❒make sure that the initialisation is correct by checking that the
windows work automatically.

Emergency flap opening
In case of emergency, pull the cord A fig. 99 on the right-hand side of
the boot to open the fuel flap.
Pulling the cord will unlock the flap: it will then be necessary to press
on the flap to open it.
Closure
Release the cap B fig. 98 from the device D and insert it in its housing.
Then tighten the cap clockwise until one or more clicks are heard.
Finally, close the flap A checking that it is correctly locked.
The sealing may cause a slight pressure increase in the tank. A little
breathing off, while slackening the cap is absolutely normal.
Do not place naked flames or lit cigarettes near to the
fuel filler: fire risk. Also, keep your face away from
this fuel inlet to avoid inhaling harmful fumes.

Press the clutch pedal fully to change gears correctly. It
is therefore essential that there is nothing under the
pedals: make sure the mats are lying flat and do not
get in the way of the pedals.Do not drive with your hand resting on the gear lever as
the force exerted, even if slight, could lead over time to
premature wear of the gearbox internal components.
SAVING FUELHere are some suggestions which can help you to save fuel and lower
harmful emissions.GENERAL CONSIDERATIONSCar maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried out in accordance with the
“Scheduled Servicing Plan” (see chapter “Maintenance and care”).
Ty r e s
Check the tyre pressure at least once every 4 weeks: if the pressure is
too low, consumption levels increase as resistance to rolling is higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded boot. The weight of the car and its
arrangement greatly affect fuel consumption and stability.
Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack from the roof after use. These
accessories lower aerodynamic penetration and adversely affect
consumption levels. It is better to use a trailer to transport particularly
bulky objects.
Electrical devices
Only use electrical devices for the time needed. The heated rear
window, additional headlights, windscreen wipers and heater fan
require a considerable amount of energy; increasing the current uptake
increases fuel consumption (by up to +25% in an urban cycle).

❒alert any bystander that the car is about to be raised; all persons
should be kept away from the car and nobody must touch it until
it has been lowered;
❒fit handle D fig. 124 into the housing in device A, operate the jack
and raise the car until the wheel is a few centimetres from the
ground;
❒for versions with wheel cap, remove the wheel cap after loosening
the 4 fastening bolts and finally loosen the fifth bolt and extract the
wheel;
❒make sure the contact surfaces between space-saver wheel and hub
are clean so that the fastening bolts will not come loose;
❒fit the space-saver spare wheel by inserting the first bolt for two
threads into the hole closest to the valve;
❒take the wrench A fig. 123 and fully tighten the fixing bolts;
❒operate the jack handle D fig. 124 to lower the vehicle. Then extract
the jack;
❒use the wrench A fig. 123 provided to fully tighten the bolts in a
criss-cross fashion as per the numerical sequence illustrated in
fig. 126;
❒when replacing an alloy wheel it is advisable to place it upside
down, with the aesthetic part facing upwards.
Visit Alfa Romeo Authorized Services as soon as possible to
check the correct tightening of the main wheel bolts.
Restore the standard wheel as soon as possible, because, once placed
in the associated compartment, the luggage compartment load
platform is rendered uneven as the standard wheel is larger than the
space-saver wheel.
REMOVING THE SUBWOOFER
(versions with Bose HI-FI system)(for versions/markets, where provided)
IMPORTANT The following procedure only applies to cars equipped
with Bose HI-FI systems with subwoofer (for versions/markets, where
provided).
Subwoofer and space-saver spare wheel
On these versions, the tools needed for changing the wheel are
arranged in a specific container on the left-hand side of the boot (see
fig. 127).
The jack is located in a pocket, again on the left-hand side of the boot
(see fig. 128).
Proceed as follows to remove the Subwoofer:
❒open the boot, pull the tab A fig. 121, lift the mat upwards and
remove the load compartment shim fig. 127;
❒loosen the fastening device A fig. 129, remove the clip B fastening
the cable and then lift the subwoofer;
