Cleaning Plastic Instrument Cluster Lenses
The lenses in front of the instruments in this vehicle are
molded in clear plastic. When cleaning the lenses, care
must be taken to avoid scratching the plastic.
1. Clean with a wet soft rag. A mild soap solution may be
used, but do not use high alcohol content or abrasive
cleaners. If soap is used, wipe clean with a clean damp
rag.
2. Dry with a soft cloth.
Seat Belt Maintenance
Do not bleach, dye or clean the belts with chemical
solvents or abrasive cleaners. This will weaken the fabric.
Sun damage can also weaken the fabric.
If the belts need cleaning, use a mild soap solution or
lukewarm water. Do not remove the belts from the car to
wash them. Dry with a soft cloth.Replace the belts if they appear frayed or worn or if the
buckles do not work properly.
WARNING!
A frayed or torn belt could rip apart in a collision and
leave you with no protection. Inspect the belt system
periodically, checking for cuts, frays, or loose parts.
Damaged parts must be replaced immediately. Do
not disassemble or modify the system. Seat belt
assemblies must be replaced after a collision if they
have been damaged (i.e., bent retractor, torn web-
bing, etc.).
286 MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE

•Short, repeated trips (less than 4-5 miles or 7-8 km) at
sub-zero temperatures
•Allowing the engine to idle for extended periods of
time
•Driving for long distances at low speeds
•Allowing the vehicle to sit for long periods of inactiv-
ity
Under any of the above circumstances, the following
checks need to be performed more frequently than indi-
cated in the Maintenance Schedule:
•Check front and rear disc brake pad condition and
wear
•Check cleanliness of tailgate locks.
•Check cleanliness and lubrication of chassis and steer-
ing linkage•Visually inspect condition of: engine, gearbox, trans-
mission, pipes and hoses (exhaust - fuel system -
brakes) and rubber elements (gaiters - sleeves - bushes
- etc.)
•Check battery charge and battery fluid level (electro-
lyte)
•Visually inspect condition of the auxiliary drive belts
•Check and, if necessary, change engine oil and replace
oil filter
•Check and, if necessary, replace air cleaner
Using the car on track should be regarded as an excep-
tion. The car has been designed and produced for road
use.

(#) The spark plug change interval is mileage based only,
yearly intervals do not apply. The following are essential
to ensure correct operation and prevent serious damage
to the engine:
•Only use spark plugs of the same make and type
which are specially certified for such engines (refer to
“Fluids, Lubricants and Genuine Parts” in “Maintain-
ing Your Vehicle” for further information).•Strictly comply with the spark plug replacement inter-
val given in the maintenance schedule for spark plug
replacement.
•Contact your Alfa Romeo Dealer if you have questions.
(*) Regardless of the distance covered, the timing belt
must be changed every 4 years for particularly demand-
ing use (cold climates, city driving, long periods of
idling) or at least every 5 years.
