Hot engine coolant (red)
When the ignition key is turned to MAR, the warning
light turns on but should go off after a few seconds.
The warning light turns on when the engine is over-
heated. A specific message will be shown on the display.
If the warning light comes on, proceed as follows:
❍when driving normally: stop the car, switch off the engine and
check that the water level in the reservoir is not below the MIN
mark. If it is not, wait for a few minutes for the engine to cool
down then slowly and carefully open the cap, top-up with coolant
and check that the level is between the MIN and MAX marks.
Also visually check for leaks. If the warning light comes on again
at the next engine start-up, contact Alfa Romeo Authorized Ser-
vices.
❍if the car is used under demanding conditions (e.g. towing trail-
ers uphill or fully loaded): slow down and, if the light stays on,
stop the car. Stop for two or three minutes with the engine run-
ning and slightly accelerated to assist better coolant circulation.
Then switch the engine off. Check correct fluid level as described
above.
IMPORTANT On particularly demanding journeys, it is advisable to
keep the engine on and slightly accelerated for a few minutes be-
fore switching it off.
u
Door open (red)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light (or symbol on the display) comes
on when one or more doors or the boot are not perfectly
closed. An acoustic signal is activated with the doors open and
the car moving. On some versions, the warning light (or symbol
on the display) also lights up when the bonnet is not perfectly
closed.´
EOBD/injection system fault (amber)
Under normal conditions, the warning light comes on
when the ignition key is turned to MAR, but should
go off as soon as the engine is started.
If the warning light remains on or comes on whilst driving, that
means that the injection system is not working properly; in partic-
ular, if the warning light comes on constantly, this indicates a mal-
function in the supply/ignition system that could cause excessive
exhaust emissions, a possible loss of performance, poor driveabil-
ity and high fuel consumption.
A specific message is displayed on certain versions.
Under these conditions, you can continue travelling at moderate
speed without demanding excessive effort from the engine. Pro-
longed use of the car with the warning light on may cause dam-
age. Contact Alfa Romeo Authorized Services as soon as possible.
The warning light goes out after the fault disappears, but the in-
dication is stored in the system.U

Fuel reser ve – Limited range (amber)
This warning light comes on when about 8 to 10 litres
of fuel are left in the tank. A warning message will ap-
pear on the display (some versions only) when the re-
maining range less than approximately 50 km (or equivalent in
miles).K
If the warning light flashes with the car in motion,
contact Alfa Romeo Authorized Services.
Cruise Control (green)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light comes on when the key is turned to
MAR, but should go out after a few seconds if the Cruise
Control function is off. The warning light comes on when the Cruise
Control wheel is turned to the ON position (see the “Cruise Con-
trol” paragraph in this chapter). A specific message appears on the
display.Ü
DPF (particulate trap) cleaning in
progress (diesel versions with DPF
only) (amber)
When the ignition key is turned to MAR, the warning light
turns on but should go off after a few seconds. The warning light
stays on constantly to notify the driver that the DPF system needs
to eliminate captured pollutants (particulate) by the regeneration
process.
The warning light does not come on during every DPF regenera-
tion, but only when driving conditions require notification to the dri-
ver. The warning light will go off if the car stays in motion until
regeneration has been completed.
The process normally takes about 15 minutes. Optimal conditions
for completing the process are achieved by travelling at 60 km/h
with engine revs above 2000 rpm.
Operation of this warning light does not indicate a fault and the car
does not need to be taken to a workshop. A specific message will
appear on the display when the warning light comes on (for ver-
sions/markets where provided).

FUEL FILLER CAP
The fuel cap is unlocked when the central locking system is released
and automatically locked when the central locking system is ap-
plied.
To open
Press the flap A-fig. 89 to release it and reach the fuel filler cap
B. Then press the cap B and turn it anticlockwise.
The cap has a loss prevention device C which secures it to the flap
so that it cannot be lost. Attach the cap to device D during refu-
elling.
How to open the flap in an emergency
In case of emergency, pull the cord A-fig. 90 on the right-hand side
of the boot to open the fuel flap.
Pull the cord to release the lock. Then press the flap to open it.
Closing
Release the cap B from the device D and insert it in its housing.
Tighten the cap in a clockwise direction until one or more clicks are
heard. Finally, close the flap A and check that is it correctly locked.
The hermetic seal may cause a slight increase in pressure in the
tank. A suction noise when you release the cap is therefore entirely
normal.
Do not place naked flames or lit cigarettes near
to the fuel filler: fire risk. Keep your face away
from the fuel tank opening to avoid breathing in
harmful vapours.

The space-saver spare wheel is vehicle-specific:
do not use it on vehicles of other model and do not
use space-saver spare wheels from other models
on your car. The space-saver spare wheel must only be
used in an emergency. Never use it longer than strictly
necessary and never exceed 80 km/h. On the space-saver
spare wheel there is a label, summarizing the main warn-
ings about the space-saver spare wheel usage restrictions.
Never remove or cover the label. Never apply any hub
cap to the space-saver spare wheel.
CHANGING A TYRE
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
The car is equipped with an “Automatic Fix&Go Kit“: see “Auto-
matic Fix&Go Kit” for how to use this device.
Alternatively to the “Automatic Fix&Go Kit” the car may be
equipped with a space-saver spare wheel: see the instructions on
the following pages for changing the tyre.
Use your hazard lights, warning triangle, etc. to
show that your car is stationary in compliance with
regulations. Passengers should get out of the car,
particularly if it is heavily loaded, and wait for the wheel
to be changed away from the traffic. In the event of a
wheel change on a slope or on unsurfaced roads, chock
the wheels.
BUMP STARTING
Never start the engine by pushing, towing or driving downhill.
Never use a fast battery-charger to start the en-
gine as this could damage the electronic systems
of your car, particularly the ignition and fuel sup-
ply control units.
