RECHARGING THE
BATTERYIMPORTANT The battery recharging
procedure is given as information only.
To carry out this operation contact
the dedicated Alfa Romeo Dealership.
IMPORTANT After turning the ignition
key to STOP, wait at least one minute
before disconnecting the electrical
supply from the battery.
We advise you to use a battery charger
with rated recharging voltage of 12 V
and maximum current 15 A, for a
period from 12–24 hours. Charging for
a longer time may damage the battery.
To recharge, proceed as follows:
❒disconnect the negative battery
terminal;
❒ connect the charger cables to the
battery terminals, observing the
polarity;
❒ turn on the charger;
❒ when it is recharged, turn the charger
off before disconnecting it from the
battery;
❒ reconnect the negative battery
terminal.
RAISING THE CARIf raising the car is necessary, contact a
dedicated Alfa Romeo Dealership,
who will be equipped with suitable arm
or workshop lifts, in addition to the
specific equipment necessary.
It is however possible to use suitable
lowered hydraulic jacks to raise the car
if necessary.
The car lifting points are marked on the
side skirts with the
symbols (see
points illustrated in fig. 106).
The correct support points for raising
the front and rear part of the car are
illustrated in fig. 107 and fig. 108. IMPORTANT When positioning the car
on the arm lift, remember that the
power unit is located at the rear end,
with consequent impact on weight
distribution. Therefore, the shorter arms
must support the rear end, and the
longer arms support the front end.
