The button B should only
be pressed when the key is
away from the body, in
particular from the eyes, and from
objects that can be spoilt (clothes
for instance). Make sure the key
can never be touched by others, es-
pecially children, who may inad-
vertently press the button.
OPENING THE TAILGATE
The tailgate can be opened from outside by
remote control pressing button (E), even if the
electronic alarm is on. Opening of the tailgate
is accompanied by the direction indicators
flashing twice; closing is accompanied by a
single flash.
If the electronic alarm is fitted, when the
tailgate is opened the alarm system switch-
es off volumetric protection and the tailgate
control sensor, the system (with the excep-
tion of versions for certain markets) “beeps”
twice.
Closing the tailgate again, the control func-
tions are restored, the system “beeps” twice
(with the exception of certain markets). The metal insert (A) of the key operates:
– the ignition switch
– driver’s door lock and, upon request for
versions/markets where applicable, the pas-
senger’s door lock
– the passenger’s side Air bag deactiva-
tion switch
To bring the metal insert out of the key
grip, press the button (B).
To pull out the hook ring (F) use a finely
pointed object (e.g. pen) and work in the
direction of the arrow.
To insert the metal insert in the key grip:
– keep the button (B) pressed
– move the metal insert (A)
– release the button (B) and turn the met-
al insert (A) until hearing the click as it locks
into place.
To unlock the doors by remote control press
button (C), the doors unlock and the direc-
tion indicators flash twice. To lock the doors
by remote control, press button (D), the
doors lock and the direction indicators flash
once. Pressing button (C) the doors are re-
leased, if within the next 60 seconds a door
or the tailgate are not opened, the system au-
tomatically locks everything again.
On cars fitted with electronic alarm system,
pressing button (C) turns it off, pressing but-
ton (D) turns it on.

2) For versions without the reconfigurable
multifunction display, the flashing of the
warning light means that the car is not pro-
tected by the engine inhibitor device. This
condition for cars with reconfigurable mul-
tifunction display is shown by the turning on
of the warning light together with the dis-
play of the message: “C
ODE SYSTEM NOT PRO-
GRAMMED”. Contact Alfa Romeo Authorised
Services immediately to have all the keys
memorised.
If after about 2 seconds
with the ignition key at
MAR, for versions without
reconfigurable multifunction dis-
play, the Alfa Romeo CODE warn-
ing light (
Y) turns on again flash-
ing, or for versions with reconfig-
urable multifunction display, the
warning light turns on again to-
gether with the message “C
ODE
SYSTEM NOT PROGRAMMED
”, this
means that the code of the keys
has not been stored, therefore the
car is not protected by the Alfa
Romeo CODE system against at-
tempted theft. In this case contact
Alfa Romeo Authorised Services to
have the key codes stored.
KEY BATTERY

IGNITION DEVICE
SWITCH(fig. 8)
The key can be turned to one of four po-
sitions:
–STOP: engine switched off, key can be
removed, engine inhibitor engaged, steer-
ing lock engaged, services excluded apart
from those supplied directly (e.g. hazard
warning lights).
–MAR: drive position. The engine lock
is deactivated and all electrical devices are
powered.

When leaving the car al-
ways remove the key from
the ignition to prevent any
occupants of the car from acciden-
tally activating the controls. Nev-
er leave children in the car unac-
companied. Remember to engage
the handbrake and, if the car is
parked on an uphill slope, to en-
gage the first gear. If the car is fac-
ing downhill, engage reverse gear.
If the ignition device is
tampered with (for exam-
ple an attempted theft)
have it checked over by Alfa
Romeo Authorised Services before
travelling again.
IMPORTANTDo not leave the key in
this position when the engine is stopped.
–AV V: unstable position for starting the
engine.
IMPORTANTIf the engine fails to start
move the key back to STOPand repeat.
The ignition switch has a safety device
which prevents passage to AV Vwhen the
engine is running.
–PARK: engine switched off, key can
be removed, engine lock engaged, steer-
ing lock engaged, sidelights switched on au-
tomatically.
IMPORTANTTo turn the key to the
PARKposition, button (A) on the switch
must be pressed first.

Mount the child restraint
system only with the car
stationary. The Isofix child
restraint system is properly an-
chored to the mounting brackets
when clicks are heard. In any case,
keep to the installation instructions
that must be provided by the child
restraint system Manufacturer.– push the child restraint system until hear-
ing the locking clicks;
– check proper locking by moving the
child’s seat with force: the built-in safety
mechanism actually inhibits proper coupling
with only one coupling locked.
It is actually possible to mount both the
traditional restraint system and the Isofix
one, e.g. the traditional one on the left and
the Isofix type seat on the right.
Since sizes are different, on the rear seats
it is possible to install just two traditional
child’s seats, or two Isofix type seats. On
the front passenger seat it is only possible
to mount traditional child’s seats.
Only Isofix type child restraint systems de-
signed and tested for this car must be used.

MOUNTING THE ISOFIX TYPE
CHILD’S SEAT
Groups 0 and 0+
For children of the 0 and 0+ group (ba-
bies up to 13 Kg), the child’s seat is facing
backwards and the child is restrained by the
child’s seat belts(D-fig. 48).
As the child grows, passing to weight group
1, the child’s seat shall be fitted facing for-
wards.
For proper mounting proceed as follows:
– check whether the release lever (B) is
at rest position (inward);
– find the presetting brackets (A), then
position the child restraint system with the
fastening devices (C) aligned with the brack-
ets;

Group 1
For proper mounting proceed as follows:
– check whether the release lever (B-
fig. 49) is at rest position (inward);
– find the presetting brackets (A), then
position the child restraint system with fas-
tening devices (C) aligned with the brack-
ets;
– push the child restraint system until hear-
ing the locking clicks;
– check proper locking by moving the
child’s seat with force: the built-in safety
mechanism actually inhibits improper cou-
pling with only one coupling locked.AIR BAG
The car is fitted with front air bags for the
driver and for the passenger (side bags - win-
dow bags).
FRONT AIR BAGS
The front air bag (driver’s and passenger’s)
has been designed to protect the occupants
in the event of head-on crashes of medium-
high severity by placing the cushion between
the occupant and the steering wheel or dash-
board.
Front air bags are designed to protect the
car occupants in front crashes and therefore
non-activation in other types of collisions
(side collisions, rear-end shunts, roll-overs,
etc...) is not a system malfunction.
In the case of a crash, an electronic con-
trol unit, when necessary, triggers inflation
of the cushion.
The cushion inflates instantaneously, set-
ting itself between the body of the front oc-
cupants and the structures that could cause
injury. The cushion then deflates immedi-
ately afterwards. With this configuration, the child is secured
also by the car seat belts and by the upper
belts. To apply car seat belts to child’s seat
refer to the child’s seat handbook.

The cigar lighter gets ex-
tremely hot. Handle with
care and prevent its use by
children: danger of fire and/or
burning.
Always ensure that the
cigar lighter has turned off.
Do not use the ashtray as
waste paper basket: it
might set on fire in contact
with cigarette stubs. DETERRENT LED (fig. 134)
The led (A) on the instrument cluster
comes into operation when the doors are
locked (ignition key at STOPor removed)
and it remains in the “deterrence” condi-
tion, flashing with a red light until the next
time the doors are unlocked.
IMPORTANTIf a door or the tailgate
are not closed perfectly, the deterrent led
flashes at a higher frequency for 4 seconds
and then flashes at normal frequency again. FRONT ASHTRAY AND CIGAR
LIGHTER
(fig. 135)
To gain access to the ashtray and the cig-
ar lighter open the lid (A).
To use the cigar lighter, with the key at
MAR, press button (B); after a few sec-
onds the button will return automatically
to its initial position and the cigar lighter is
ready for use.
Remove the tray to empty and clean the
ashtray (C).
The position of the cigar lighter in relation
to the ashtray and viceversa, may vary de-
pending on the trim level.
