MINISTERIAL
HOMOLOGATIONS
In keeping with the laws in force in
each country on the subject of radio fre-
quency, we point out that:
– the separate homologation numbers
for each market are given on the last
pages of this handbook before the alpha-
betical index (for some countries also ho-
mologation document);
– for markets in which the transmitter
needs to be marked with the homologa-
tion number, this has been stated on the
component.
(Depending on the versions/markets,
the code may also be marked on the
transmitter and/or on the receiver).
REMOTE CONTROL
DOOR LOCKING
SYSTEM
The system comprises a receiver and a
transmitter (remote control) incorporated
in the key (B-fig. 14). To lock/unlock
the locks, point the transmitter towards
the car, press and release the button
(C). If, when pressing the remote control
push-button (C), the led (A) (where re-
quired) issues just a short flash, replace
the batteries as described in the “The Al-
fa Romeo CODE system” paragraph.
IMPORTANT Should it be necessary
to programme additional remote controls,
contact Alfa Romeo Authorized Services.
IGNITION DEVICE
THE SWITCH (fig. 15)
The switch has four positions:
–STOP: engine switched off, key can
be removed, engine lock engaged, steer-
ing lock engaged, all services excluded a-
part from those powered directly (e.g.
hazard warning light I.C.S. system (ex-
cept climate control).
–ACC: position for using the cigar
lighter and of the I.C.S. system (except
climate control).
–MAR: drive position. The engine
lock is deactivated and all electrical de-
vices are powered.
