KEY BATTERY CHANGE
If pressing the remote control buttons
(AorB-fig. 7), the led (C-fig. 7)
(where required) gives only one brief
flash and the alarm system led (where
fitted) (A-fig. 8) on the dashboard s-
tays on glowing steadily for about 2 min-
utes (after turning off the alarm and with
the ignition switch off), it is necessary to
replace the battery with a new one of the
equivalent type to be found c/o normal
retailers.
To replace the battery, remove the plas-
tic lid (A-fig. 9), insert the new battery
according to the correct polarity and put
the lid back on.For further information contact Autho-
rised Alfa Romeo Services.
OPERATION
Each time the ignition key is turned to
theSTOPposition, the Alfa Romeo
CODE system deactivates the functions of
the engine electronic control unit.Each time the engine is started, turning
the key to the MARposition, the control
unit of the Alfa Romeo CODE system
sends a recognition code to the engine
control unit to deactivate the inhibition of
the functions.
The recognition code, which is crypted
and variable between over 4 billion com-
binations, is only sent if the system con-
trol unit has recognised the code sent to
it by the key, which contains an electronic
transmitter, through an aerial in the igni-
tion switch. Dead batteries consti-
tute a hazard for the
environment and must
be disposed of in the special con-
tainers as specified by the rela-
tive laws.
