2013 Alfa Romeo Giulietta panel

FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAGThis is located in a dedicated compartment in the dashboard fig. 115.
When the passenger side airbag is activated, child seats
facing backwards must NEVER be placed on the front seat.
Deployment of the airbag in an accident could cause fatal
injuries to the baby regardless of the severity of the
collision. Always deactivate the passenger side airbag
when placing a child seat on the front seat. The passenger seat must
also be positioned back as far as possible in order to avoid the child
seat from coming into contact with the dashboard. Though not required
by law, we recommend that you reactivate this airbag as soon as the
child no longer needs to be transported to ensure better protection
for adults.
Deactivating passenger side airbags:
front airbag and seat-mounted side
bag for pelvis, chest and shoulders
protection (Side bag)If a child must be carried on the front seat in a child seat facing
backwards, deactivate the passenger side front airbag and seat-
mounted side bag for pelvis, chest and shoulder protection (side back).
With the airbags deactivated, the
warning light switches on in the
instrument panel.
To deactivate the airbags, see the “Knowing your car”
section, “Menu Options” paragraph.

STARTING AND DRIVING
STARTING THE ENGINEPROCEDURE FOR PETROL VERSIONSProceed as follows:
❒engage the handbrake and place the gearbox lever in neutral;
❒fully depress the clutch pedal, without touching the accelerator;
❒turn the ignition key to AVV and release it as soon as the engine
starts.
IMPORTANT
❒If the engine does not start at the first attempt, return the ignition key
to STOP before repeating the starting procedure.
❒If, when the ignition key is at MAR, the instrument panel warning
light
remains on together with warning light
, turn the
key to STOP and then back to MAR; if the warning light remains on,
try the other keys provided. If you are still unable to start the engine
contact Alfa Romeo Authorized Services.
❒Never leave the ignition key at MAR when the engine is stopped.
PROCEDURE FOR DIESEL VERSIONSProceed as follows:
❒engage the handbrake and place the gearbox lever in neutral;
❒turn the ignition key to MAR: the warning lights
and
on
the instrument panel will switch on;
❒wait for the warning lights to switch off;❒fully depress the clutch pedal, without touching the accelerator;
❒turn the ignition key to AVV;
warning light switches off.
Waiting too long will waste the heating work carried out by the
glow plugs. Release the key as soon as the engine starts.
If the
warning light flashes for about 1 minute after
starting or during prolonged cranking, this indicates a fault
in the glow plug preheating system. Use the car normally
if the engine starts and go to Alfa Romeo Authorized Services as soon
as possible.
It is dangerous to run the engine in enclosed areas. The
engine takes in oxygen and releases carbon dioxide,
carbon monoxide and other toxic gases.It is advisable not to demand maximum performance from
your car (e.g. excessive acceleration, long distances at
maximum rpm, excessively intense braking, etc.) when it is
first used.When the engine is off, do not leave the ignition key turned
to MAR to prevent unnecessary electrical consumption from
draining the battery.
