SCHEDULED
SERVICINGCorrect servicing is essential in
guaranteeing a long life for the car
under the best conditions.
This is why Alfa Romeo has
programmed a series of checks and
servicing operations every 20,000 km.
Check the items on the Scheduled
Servicing Plan (e.g. periodically check
level of liquids, tyre pressure, etc.)
before 20.000 km and between these
services deadlines.Scheduled Servicing is offered by the
dedicated Alfa Romeo Dealership
at predefined intervals. If, during each
operation, in addition to the ones
scheduled, the need arises for further
replacements or repairs, these may
be carried out only with your explicit
agreement.
IMPORTANT
2000 km before the maintenance is
due, a dedicated message appears on
the display, along with
warning
light. The Scheduled Servicing services are
set out by the Manufacturer. Failure
to have them carried out may invalidate
the warranty.
It is advisable to inform the dedicated
Alfa Romeo Dealership of any small
operating irregularities without waiting
for the next service.

PRESCRIPTIONS FOR HANDLING THE VEHICLE AT THE END OF
ITS LIFEFor years, Alfa Romeo has pursued a global commitment to protect and respect the environment by continually improving its
production processes and developing increasingly eco-compatible products. To ensure its customers the best possible service
in compliance with environmental standards and in response to obligations arising out of European Directive 2000/53/EC on
end of life vehicles, Alfa Romeo offers its customers the chance to hand back their vehicles (*) at the end of their life cycle at no
additional cost.
The European Directive sets out that when the vehicle is handed over the last keeper or owner should not incur any expenses
as a result of its market value. In particular, in almost all European Union countries, until 1 January 2007, vehicles registered
after 1 July 2002 will be collected free of charge, whilst from 2007 collection will be free of charge irrespective of the year of
registration as long as the vehicle contains its basic components (in particular, the engine and bodywork) and has no additional
waste.
To hand your vehicle over at the end of its life without extra cost, contact one of our dealerships or an Alfa Romeo authorised
collection and scrapping centre. These centres have been carefully chosen to offer high quality service for the collection,
treatment and recycling of vehicles at their end of life, respecting the surrounding environment.
You can find further information on these collection and scrapping centres either from dedicated Alfa Romeo Dealerships, by
calling the freephone number 00800 2532 4200 or on the Alfa Romeo website.
