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

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.

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

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

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.

handle, (see fig. 10 ).
POWER LOCK(where provided)
6)
This safety device inhibits the operation
of the interior door handles and the door

break-in attempts (e.g. broken window).
We recommend that you activate the
device each time you park your vehicle.

The device is enabled on all the doors by
pressing the
button on the key twice
quickly.
The direction indicators flash 3 times to
let you know that the device is active.
If one or more of the doors are not closed
correctly, the device will not activate,
thus preventing a person from getting
stuck inside the passenger compartment
by entering the vehicle through, and then
closing, the open door.

when the doors are unlocked (pressing
button
on the key with remote
control);
when the ignition device is set to ON.
CHILD SAFETY DEVICE

with the doors open:
position: device engaged (door
locked);
position: device not engaged (door
may be opened from the inside).
The device remains engaged even if the
doors are electrically unlocked.
IMPORTANT The rear doors cannot be
opened from the inside when the child
safety device is engaged.

insert the metal insert of the
electronic key in the release device
housing fig. 12;
turn the key clockwise for the right

the battery charge has been restored):
press thebutton on the electronic
key;
press thebutton on the door panel;
open by inserting the key insert in the
driver's door lock;
operate the internal door handle.
IMPORTANT For the rear doors, if the
child lock device was engaged and the
previously described locking procedure
carried out, operating the internal handle
will not open the door but will only realign
the lock release device. To open the door,
the outside handle must be used. The
door central locking/unlocking buttons
are not deactivated when the emergency
lock is engaged.
WARNING
6)Once the Power Lock system is engaged,
it is impossible to open the doors from inside
the vehicle. Before getting out of the car,
please therefore check that there is no-one
left inside.
7)NEVER leave children unattended inside
the car, let alone leave the car with the doors
unlocked in a place that children can access
easily. Children may seriously, or even
fatally, injure themselves. Also ensure that
children do not inadvertently operate the
electric parking brake, the brake pedal or the
transmission lever.8)Always use this device when carrying
children. After engaging the child lock on
both rear doors, check for effective
engagement by trying to open a door with
the internal handle.
IMPORTANT
2)Make sure to take the key with you once a
door or the tailgate is locked, to prevent
locking the same key inside the vehicle. If the
key has been locked in, it can only be
recovered using the second provided key.
3)The operation of the recognition system
depends on various factors, such as, for
example, any electromagnetic wave
interference from external sources (e.g.
mobile phones), the charge of the battery in
the electronic key and the presence of metal
objects near the key or the car. In these
cases it is still possible to unlock the doors
by using the metal insert in the electronic key
(see description on the following pages).
