(for versions/markets, where provided)
ALARM ACTIVATION
Activation of the alarm triggers the
acoustic warning and the direction
indicators.
IMPORTANT The alarm is adapted by the
Manufacturer to meet the requirements
of the various countries where the
vehicle is marketed.
SWITCHING ON THE ALARM
With the doors, bonnet and tailgate
closed and the ignition key either turned
to STOP or removed, point the key with
remote control towards the car and press
and release the button
.
Except on some versions for specific
markets, the system produces a visual
and acoustic warning and enables door
locking.
ALARM SELF-ACTIVATION(for versions/markets, where provided)
If the alarm has not been activated using
the remote control, approximately
30 seconds after the key is turned to the
STOP position and the last time one of
the doors or tailgate was opened and
reclosed, the alarm is activated
automatically.This condition is indicated by the
intermittent illumination of the LED on
the alarm deactivation button on the roof
light and by the activation indications
described previously.
To deactivate the alarm, press the button
on the remote control.
Alarm self-activation also occurs when
the doors are closed by turning the metal
insert of the key in the driver door lock. If
the alarm is self-activated, the doors will
not be locked.

are not raised from the windscreen and
that the wiper is not operational.
CLOSING

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

JUMP STARTING
STARTING THE ENGINE
If the iconstays on constantly on the
instrument panel, contact the Alfa
Romeo Dealership immediately.
JUMP STARTING
If the battery is flat, start the engine
using an auxiliary battery with the same
capacity or a little higher than the flat
one.
38) 39)125)
Proceed as follows to start the vehicle:
connect the positive terminal (+)
fig. 104 of the auxiliary battery only to
the point indicated on the car battery
(writing "OK") and nowhere else;
with a second lead, connect the
negative terminal(−)oftheauxiliary
battery to an earthing point
on the
engine or the gearbox/transmission of
the car to be started;
start the engine; when the engine has
been started, remove the leads reversing
the order above.
If after a few attempts the engine does
not start, contact the Alfa Romeo
Dealership.
JUMP STARTING
(For versions with Start&Stop system)
When jump starting, never connect the
negative lead (–) of the auxiliary battery
to the negative pole 1 fig. 105 of the car
battery, but rather to an engine/gearbox
earth point.
126)
BUMP STARTING
Never, under any circumstances, jump
start the engine by pushing, towing or
coasting downhill.
IMPORTANT
38)Never connect the negative terminals of
the two batteries directly! If the auxiliary
battery is installed on another car, prevent
accidental contact between metallic parts of
the two cars.
39)Never use a fast battery-charger to
start the engine as this could damage the
electronic systems of your vehicle,
particularly the ignition and engine fuel
supply control units.
WARNING
125)This starting procedure must be
performed by expert personnel because
incorrect actions could cause electrical
discharge of considerable intensity.
Furthermore, battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive: avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Keep naked flames and lighted cigarettes
away from the battery and do not cause
sparks.
126)Before opening the bonnet, make sure
that the engine is off and that the ignition
key is in the STOP position. Please follow the
instructions on the decal near the front
crossmember. We recommend that you
remove the key from the ignition if other
people remain in the vehicle. The vehicle
should always be left after the key has been
removed or turned to the STOP position.
During refuelling, make sure that the engine
is off (and that the ignition key is in the STOP
position).
