POWER WINDOWS
For some versions, the power windows
are fitted with a safety system with crush-
prevention seals. The electronic control
unit that operates the system is capable of
detecting the presence of an obstacle dur-
ing the window closing motion through
the special seals. Should this occur, the
system stops the movement of the win-
dow and reverses it immediately.IMPORTANTIf the crush-prevention
function is operated for 3 times in 1
minute, the system automatically sets to
the “recovery” mode (self-protection). To
reset the correct system operating logic,
press the control button until full window
opening. The logic is reset and if there are
no faults, the window winder automatical-
ly resumes normal operation; if not con-
tact Alfa Romeo Authorised Services.
IMPORTANTWith the ignition key at
STOPor removed, the power windows
remain activated for about 3 minutes and
are deactivated immediately the moment
a door is opened.
