REFUELLINGDo not use petrol containing methanol or ethanol E85. Using these mixtures may cause misfiring and driving issues, as well as damage vital
components of the supply system.
For further details on the use of the correct fuel see the "Refuelling the vehicle" paragraph in the "Starting and driving" chapter.
STARTING THE ENGINE
Make sure that the electric parking brake is engaged and that the transmission is in P (Park) or N (Neutral), press the brake pedal and then press the
ignition device button.
PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
The catalytic converter develops high temperatures during operation. Do not park the car on grass, dry leaves, pine needles or other flammable
material: fire hazard.
RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The vehicle is fitted with a system that carries out a continuous diagnosis of the emission-related components in order to help protect the
environment.
ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES
If, after buying the vehicle, you decide to add electrical accessories (with the risk of gradually draining the battery), contact an Alfa Romeo
Dealership. They can calculate the overall electrical requirement and check that the vehicle's electric system can support the required load.
SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct maintenance of the car is essential for ensuring that it maintains its performance and its safety features, its environmental friendliness and
low running costs for a long time to come.

IGNITION DEVICE
OPERATION
1) 2) 3) 4) 5)
To activate the starter switch fig. 4, the
electronic key must be inside the
passenger compartment.
The ignition device has the following
possible states:
STOP: engine off, steering locked.
Some electrical devices (e.g. central door
locking system, alarm, etc.) are still
available;
ON (single button press): all electrical
devices are available. This state can be
selected by pressing the ignition device
button once, without pressing the brake
pedal;
AVV: engine starting. This state can be
selected by pressing the starter buttononce with the brake pedal pressed.
NOTE With the starter switch ON, if
30 minutes pass with P (Park) mode
engaged and the engine stopped, the
starter switch will automatically move to
the STOP position.
NOTE With the engine running, it is
possible to go away from the car taking
the electronic key with you. The engine
will still be running. The vehicle will
indicate the absence of the key on board
when the door is closed.
For more information on the engine
start-up, see the description in the
"Starting the engine" paragraph, in the
"Starting and driving" chapter.
IMPORTANT If the battery was
disconnected, do not start the engine
immediately after reconnecting the
terminals, but press the start button,
without operating the pedals, to turn on
the instrument panel and then start the
engine.
The
symbol on the instrument panel
will remain on, indicating that the
steering must be initialised. To do this,
turn the steering wheel from one end to
the other and bring it back to the centre
position within 30 seconds from starting
the engine. If any red warning lights on
the instrument panel remain lit, stop theengine, wait for at least 5 seconds and
repeat the starting procedure described
above.
STARTING WITH FLAT KEY BATTERY
If the remote control battery is flat,
proceed as follows to start the vehicle:
lift the front armrest;
lay the key over the profile at the
bottom of the compartment.
STEERING LOCK(where provided)
Activation
The steering lock is engaged when the
driver door is opened with the ignition
device button at STOP.
Deactivation
The steering lock disengages when the
ignition device is pressed and the
electronic key is recognised.
WARNING
1)Always take the key with you when you
leave your vehicle to prevent someone from
accidentally operating the controls.
Remember to engage the electric parking
brake. Never leave children unattended in
the vehicle.

2)It is absolutely forbidden to carry out any
after-market operation involving steering
system or steering column modifications
(e.g. installation of anti-theft device) that
could adversely affect performance,
invalidate the warranty, cause SERIOUS
SAFETY PROBLEMS and also result in the
car not meeting type-approval
requirements.
3)Before leaving the vehicle, ALWAYS
engage the handbrake. On versions
equipped with automatic transmission,
activate mode P (Park) and press the ignition
device to set it to STOP. When leaving the
vehicle, always lock all the doors by pressing
the button on the handle.
4)For versions equipped with the Keyless
Start system, do not leave the electronic key
inside or near the car or in a place accessible
to children. Do not leave the vehicle with the
ignition device in ON position. A child could
activate the electric window winders, other
controls or even start the vehicle.
5)If the ignition device has been tampered
with (e.g. an attempted theft), have it
checked over by the Alfa Romeo Dealership
before driving again.ENGINE IMMOBILIZER
The Engine Immobilizer system prevents
unauthorised use of the vehicle
preventing to start the engine.
The system does not need to be
enabled/activated: operation is
automatic, regardless of the fact that the
vehicle's doors are locked or unlocked.
When the ignition device is set to ON, the
Engine Immobilizer system identifies the
code transmitted by the key. If the code
is recognised as valid, the Engine
Immobilizer system enables engine
starting.
When the ignition device is brought back
to STOP, the Engine Immobilizer system
deactivates the control unit controlling
the engine, thus preventing its starting.
For the correct engine starting
procedures, see the instructions in the
"Starting the engine" paragraph,
"Starting and driving" chapter.Irregular operation
If, during starting, the key code is not
correctly recognised, theicon is
displayed on the instrument panel (see
the instructions in the "Warning lights and
messages" paragraph, "Knowing the
instrument panel" chapter). This
condition leads to the engine switching
off after 2 seconds. In this case, bring the
ignition device to STOP and then to ON; if
it is still blocked, try with the other keys
provided. If it is still not possible to start
the engine, contact an Alfa Romeo
Dealership.
If the
icon is displayed while driving,
this means that the system is running a
self-diagnosis (e.g. due to a voltage drop).
If the display persists, contact an Alfa
Romeo Dealership.

adjusted according to 3 levels: level
1=minimum sensitivity, level 2=average
sensitivity, level 3=maximum sensitivity.
The higher the sensitivity set, the lesser
