can be started to give a new name.
To clear all the names, turn the function
on and keep button 16(2-CLR) for over
8 seconds. The set gives two beeps and the
display shows “ALL NAME DELETED” for
about 2 seconds. At this point, it is possi-
ble to start the name allocation procedure.

With this function it is possible to adjust
(setting from 1 to 66) or cut off (OFF set-
ting) the telehpone sound.

¯¯) or 7(˙˙).
To adjust the sound, use 19(VOL–) or
21(VOL+).

– “PHONE VOLUME: 23”: function on
with volume setting 23;
– “OFF”: function off.HICUT function

Using this function it is possible to reduce
the treble tones, in accordance with the sig-
nal transmitted. To turn this function on/off,
use4(
¯¯) or 7(˙˙).
The display will show the current status
of the function:

– “HICUT FUNCTION: OFF”: function off.IGNITION TIME function
(turning off mode)
With this function it is possible to set the
radio turning off mode according to two dif-
ferent procedures. To turn on/off, use
4(¯¯) or 7(˙˙).
The display shows the mode chosen:
– “00 MIN”: turning off depends on the
ignition key. The radio turns off automati-
cally as soon as the ignition key is turned to
STOP;
– “20 MIN”: the radio turns off regard-
less of the ignition key position. The radio
stays on after turning the ignition key to
STOPfor a maximum of 20 minutes.
IMPORTANTIf the radio turns off au-
tomatically after turning the ignition key to
STOP(for immediate switching off or de-
layed switching off after 20 minutes), the
set will turn on automatically turning the ig-
nition key to MAR. Instead, if the radio is
turned off using button 20, when the igni-
tion key is turned to MAR, the radio set
will stay off.

CORRECT USE OF THE CAR
201
STARTING PROCEDURE
FOR JTD VERSIONS
1) Make sure the handbrake is
engaged.
2) Set the gearshift lever to neutral.
3) Turn the ignition key to MAR.The
reconfigurable multifunction display will
show the
mwarning light.
4) Wait for the
mto turn off, which
takes place sooner, the warmer the
engine. With the engine very warm the
light might stay on for such a short time
as to pass unnoticed.
5) Fully depress the clutch pedal.
6) Turn the ignition key to AV Vas
soon as the
mwarning light has gone
out. Waiting too long, makes the warming
work of the glow plugs useless .IMPORTANTThe electric devices
that absorb a high amount of energy (cli-
mate control, rearscreen heating, etc.) are
cut off automatically during starting.
If the engine does not start at the first
attempt, move the ignition key to STOP
before repeating starting.
If starting is difficult (with the Alfa
Romeo CODE system working properly),
do not insist with prolonged attempts.
Only use an auxiliary battery if the cause
is due to low battery charge. Never use a
battery charger to start the engine.
WARMING THE ENGINE
– Drive off slowly, at medium revs with-
out accelerating abruptly.
– Do not drive at full performance for
the initial kilometres of the journey. Wait
until the engine coolant temperature
reaches 50-60 °C.

VEHICLE MAINTENANCE
247
It is however wise to remember that
Programmed Maintenance does not com-
pletely cover all the car’s requirements:
also in the initial period before the
20,000 km service coupon and later,
between one coupon and another, ordi-
nary care is still necessary such as for
example routinely checking and topping
up the level of fluids, checking the tyre
pressure, etc...
IMPORTANTThe Programmed Mainte-
nance coupons are specified by the Manu-
facturer. The failure to have them carried out
may invalidate the warranty.
The Programmed Maintenance service is
carried out by all Alfa Romeo Authorised
Services, at pre-established times.If during each operation, in addition to
the ones programmed, the need arises for
further replacements or repairs, these may
be carried out only with the explicit agree-
ment of the customer.
IMPORTANTYou are advised to con-
tact Alfa Romeo Authorised Services in the
event of any minor operating faults, with-
out waiting for the next service coupon. SCHEDULED
SERVICING
Correct maintenance is determined in
ensuring long vehicle life under the best
conditions.
This is why Alfa Romeo has programmed
a series of checks and maintenance oper-
ations every 20,000 km.
IMPORTANTOn versions fitted with
reconfigurable multifunction display, at
2000 km from the maintenance deadline,
the display will show “REFER TO SERVICE
MANUAL” which is shown again turning
the ignition key to MAR, every 200 km.
For further details, see “Service” in the
“Reconfigurable multifunction display”.

VEHICLE MAINTENANCE

DIESEL FUEL FILTER
(JTD16Vversions)
DRAINING CONDENSATION
WATER
The presence of water in
the supply circuit may
cause serious damage to
the entire injection system and
cause irregular running of the
engine. If the
cwarning light
turns on together with the mes-
sage on the reconfigurable multi-
function display, contact Alfa
Romeo Authorised Services as
soon as possible to have the sys-
tem relieved.
AIR CLEANER
The air cleaner is connected to the tem-
perature and air flow sensors which send
to the control unit the electric signals
needed for correct operation of the injec-
tion and ignition system.
It must therefore always be in perfect
conditions, to ensure correct operation of
the engine, low consumption and exhaust
emission levels.
If the operations con-
cerning cleaner replace-
ment described below are
not carried out correctly and with
the due precautions, they may
compromise the travelling safety
of the vehicle. You are recom-
mended to have this operation
carried out by Alfa Romeo
Authorised Services.
If the car is habitually
used in dusty areas, the
cleaner should be replaced
at shorter intervals than those
specified in the Programmed
Maintenance Schedule.
Any attempt to clean the
cleaner may damage it,
leading to serious engine
damage.
