Alfa Romeo CODE fault/
alarm fault (amber)
(for versions/markets, where provided)

on (on some versions, with a message on the display) to indicate
an Alfa Romeo CODE system or alarm fault(for versions/markets,
where provided): In this case, contact Alfa Romeo Authorized Ser-
vices.

If this warning light flashes or, on some versions, if the symbol
appears in the display (together with the associated message) this
indicates a break-in attempt. Contact Alfa Romeo Authorized Ser-

When the key is turned to MAR, the warning light
comes on and it will go out when glow plugs reach the
preset temperature. THE engine may be started immediately af-
ter the warning light goes out.
IMPORTANT In mild or high temperature conditions, the warning
light comes on for a very short time only.
Glow plugs preheating fault
(diesel versions)
The warning light will flash (a message in the display will appear
on the display, on some versions) to indicate a fault in the glow
plugs preheating system. Contact Alfa Romeo Authorized Services
as soon as possible to eliminate the fault.

The warning light remains on constantly when driving
(together with a message in the display), to indicate the
presence of water in the diesel fuel filter.c
The presence of water in the fuel system circuit may
cause severe damage to the injection system and
irregular engine operation. If the
cwarning light
comes on in the instrument panel (together with a mes-
sage in the display) contact Alfa Romeo Authorized Ser-

Do not park the vehicle on grass, dry leaves, pine
needles or other flammable material: fire hazard.
PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The devices for reducing petrol engine emissions are the following:
catalytic converter, lambda sensors and anti-evaporation system.
The following devices are used for reducing diesel fuel engine emis-
sions: oxidising catalytic converter, exhaust gas recirculation (EGR)
and particulate filter (DPF).
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This is a mechanical filter, fitted in the exhaust system, which al-
most completely eliminates carbon particle emissions.

or long term inactivity;
❍in cities;
perform the following inspections more frequently than shown on
the Scheduled Servicing Plan:
❍check front disc brake pad condition and wear;
❍check cleanliness of bonnet and boot locks, as well as cleanli-
ness and lubrication of linkages;
❍visually inspect the conditions of: engine, gearbox, transmis-
sion, pipes and tubes (exhaust - fuel - brakes), rubber parts
(boots, sleeves, bushes, etc.);
