tampered with (e.g. an attempted
theft), have it checked over by a
Alfa Romeo Dealership as soon as
possible.
3) When getting out of the car,
always remove the key to prevent
someone from accidentally
activating the controls.

the car is parked downhill. Never
leave children unattended in the
car.4) It is absolutely forbidden to carry
out any after-market operation
involving steering system or

device). This could badly affect
performance and safety,
invalidate the warranty and also
result in the non-compliance
of the car with approval
requirements.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR

“Anti-Whiplash” device
The head restraints are equipped with
an “Anti-Whiplash” device, which
reduces the distance between head
and head restraint in the event of a rear
impact, thus mitigating the “whiplash”
effect.
The head restraint may move when the
backrest is pressed by the occupant's
torso or hand: this behaviour is caused
by the system and should not be
considered a malfunction.
REAR
Two height-adjustable head restraints
are provided for the back seats (for the
adjustment see the previous
paragraph).
On some versions a head restraint is
also provided for the central seat.
Proceed as follows to remove the head
restraints:
❒raise the head restraints to their
maximum height;
❒press buttons A and B fig. 17, then
remove the head restraints by pulling
them upwards.
WARNING
9) The head restraints must be
adjusted so that the head, rather
than the neck, rests on them. Only
in this case they can protect your
head correctly.
STEERING WHEELIt can be adjusted axially and vertically.
To adjust, release the lever by pushing it
forwards (position 1 fig. 18) and adjust
the steering wheel. Having made the
adjustment, lock lever A by pulling
it towards the steering wheel (position
2).

The correct orientation of the headlights
is important for the driver's comfort
and safety as well as for all other road
users. This is also covered by a specific
rule of the highway code.
The headlights must be correctly
directed to ensure the best visibility
conditions for all drivers. Contact a Alfa
Romeo Dealership to have the

every time that the load carried
changes.
IMPORTANT If the car is equipped with
Bixenon headlights, the headlight

HEADLIGHTS ABROAD
The dipped headlights are aligned to

country of purchase. When travelling in
countries with opposite driving
direction, to avoid dazzling the drivers
on the other side of the road, you need
to cover areas of the headlight
according to the Highway code of the
country you are travelling in.
