LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT
TAILGATE
The tailgate is operated electrically, so
pay the utmost attention before
activating its movement.
Safe opening and closing of the tailgate is
guaranteed by a protection system that
can automatically stop its movement
when it encounters an obstacle while
opening or closing.
When the car is moving, tailgate
unlocking and movement are disabled.
To avoid difficulties in tight spaces, you
can set the height at which to block the
tailgate open.
Customising the tailgate opening height
To customise the tailgate opening
position, proceed as described below:
open the tailgate;
manually move it to the position that
you want to store;
press one of the closing buttons 2 or 3
fig. 47 for at least 5 seconds (successful
acquisition is indicated by the direction
indicators flashing three times).
The tailgate is now programmed to open
to the set position.
This function can be selected on the
Connect system fig. 41 (where provided).Setting the tailgate opening height to a
preset position(where provided)
To set the tailgate opening height to one
of the four preset positions, proceed as
described below:
on the Connect system, press the
MENU button to activate the main menu
and select the following functions in
succession: “Settings”, “Doors & Locks”
and “Electric tailgate”. Select and
activate them by turning the Rotary Pad
fig. 42 and pressing it;
turn the Rotary Pad to select one of
the four preset positions and press it to
activate the selected position fig. 43.

ADJUSTING THE SEAT BELT HEIGHT
Four different adjustments in height are
possible.
To adjust the window height, from the top
downwards, press the button 4
fig. 73 and slide the handle downwards.
The height adjuster moves upwards even
without pressing the button.
Always adjust the height of the seat belts
to fit the person wearing it: this
precaution could greatly reduce the risk
of injury in the event of collision.
Correct adjustment is obtained when the
belt passes approximately half way
between the shoulder and the neck.
68) 69)
WARNING
66)Never press button 3 when travelling.
67)Remember that, in the event of an
accident, the rear seat passengers not
wearing seat belts are exposed to a very
serious risk and also represent a serious
danger for the front seat occupants.
68)Make height adjustment of the seat
belts when the car is stationary.
69)After height adjustment, always check
that the cursor to which the ring is fastened
is locked in one of the preset positions. To do
this, with the adjustment button released,
exert further pressure downwards to allow
the locking device to click if the grip has not
been released in one of the possible
positions.

72)For maximum safety, keep the backrest
upright, lean back into it and make sure the
seat belt fits closely across your chest and
pelvis. Always fasten the seat belts for both
the front and rear seats! Travelling without
wearing seat belts will increase the risk of
serious injury and even death in the event of
an accident.
73)If the belt has been subjected to high
levels of stress, for example after an
accident, it should be changed completely
together with the attachments, attachment
fixing screws and the pretensioner. In fact,
even if the belt has no visible defects, it may
have lost its resilience.
IMPORTANT
29)Operations which lead to impacts,
vibrations or localised heating (over 100°C
for a maximum of six hours) in the area
around the pretensioner may cause damage
or make it deploy. Contact an Alfa Romeo
Dealership should intervention be necessary
on these components.
CHILD PROTECTIONSYSTEMS
CARRYING CHILDREN SAFELY
74) 75) 76) 77)
For optimal protection in the event of an
impact, all occupants must be seated and
wearing adequate restraint systems,
including newborn and other children!
This prescription is compulsory in all EC
countries according to EC Directive
2003/20/EC.
Children below the height of 4.9 ft
(1.50 metres) and up to 12 years must be
protected with suitable restraint
systems and be seated on the rear seats.
Statistics on accidents indicate that the
rear seats offer greater safety for
children.
Compared with an adult, a child's head is
larger and heavier in proportion to their
body and the child's muscular and bone
structures are not fully developed.
Therefore, correct restraint systems
other than adult seat belts are necessary,
to reduce as much as possible the risk of
injuries in the event of an accident,
braking or sudden manoeuvre.
Children must be seated safely and
comfortably. As far as the characteristics
of the child seats used allow, you are
advised to keep children in rear facing
child seats for as long as possible (atleast until 3–4 years old), since this is the
most protected position in the event of
an impact.
The choice of the most suitable child
restraint system depends on the weight
and size of the child. There are various
types of child restraint systems, which
can be secured to the car by means of the
seat belts or with the ISOFIX/i-Size
anchorages.
It is recommended to always choose the
restraint system most suitable for the
child; for this reason always refer to the
Owner Handbook provided with the child
restraint system, to be sure that it is of
the right type for the children it is
intended for.
In Europe the characteristics of child
restraint systems are ruled by the
regulation ECE-R44, dividing them into
five weight groups:
Group Weight range
Group 0upto 22 lb (10 kg) in
weight
Group 0+up to 28.7 lb (13 kg)
in weight
Group 120-40lb(9-18kg)
in weight
Group 233-55lb(15-25kg)
in weight
91

The rear side seats of the car are
type-approved to house the
state-of-the-art i-Size child restraint
systems.
These child restraint systems, built and
type-approved according to the i-Size
(ECE R129) standard, ensure better
safety conditions to carry children on
board a vehicle:
the child must be transported
rearward facing until 15 months;
child restraint system protection is
increased in the event of a side collision;
the use of the ISOFIX system is
promoted to avoid faulty installation of
the child restraint system;
efficiency in the choice of the child
restraint system, which isn't made
according to weight any more but
according to the child's height, is
increased;
compatibility between the vehicle
seats and the child restraint systems is
better: the i-Size child restraint systems
can be considered as "Super ISOFIX"; this
means that they can be perfectly fitted in
type-approved i-Size seats, but can also
be fitted in ISOFIX (ECE R44)
type-approved seats.NOTE If your car seats are i-Size
approved, the symbol shown in fig. 87 will
appear on the seats near the ISOFIX
attachments.
NOTE: See the table shown on the
following page to check whether your car
is approved for installing i-Size child
restraint systems.
