handbook and the registration document, take the information from the
latter.
For safe driving, the car must be fitted with tyres of the same make and
type on all wheels.

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 it
having a zero or negative market value. In particular, in almost all European Union countries, until 1st January 2007, vehicles registered after 1st
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 an Alfa Romeo Dealership or by calling the freephone
number 00800 2532 0000 or on the Alfa Romeo website.

PHONE FUNCTION(telephone volume adjustment)
(only with Blue&Me™ system)
When a phone call is received, the audio passes to the car’s audio
system through the radio.
The telephone audio always arrives at a preset volume, but it is
possible to adjust it during a conversation using the left knobA
(fig. 1).
If, while using theBlue&Me™, the phone call volume is changed,
it is shown on the radio display, memorised and kept for all
following phone calls until the engine is switched off.
With the RADIO ON VOLUME function active, when the engine is
started again:
❒if the radio was switched off with aBlue&Me™ volume lower
than 12, theBlue&Me™ volume will be set to 12 automatically
for the next phone call;
❒if the radio was switched off with aBlue&Me™ volume higher
than 25, theBlue&Me™ volume will be set to 25 automatically
for the next phone call;
❒if the radio was switched off with aBlue&Me™ volume
between 12 and 25, theBlue&Me™ volume for the next
phone call will be that set previously by the user.
If, on the other hand, the RADIO ON VOLUME function is
deactivated, the radio keeps the last setting.
ANTI-THEFT PROTECTIONThe radio is equipped with an anti-theft protection system based on
the exchange of information between the radio and the electronic
control unit (Body Computer) on the car.
This system guarantees maximum safety and avoids the entry of
the secret code each time the radio power supply is disconnected.
If the check has a positive outcome, the radio will start to function,
whereas if the comparison codes are not the same or if the
electronic control unit (Body Computer) is replaced, the device will
ask the user to enter the secret code according to the procedure
described in the paragraph below.
Entering the secret code
When the radio is switched on, if the code is requested, the display
will show “Radio code” for about 2 seconds followed by four
dashes “----”.
The code is made up of four numbers from 1 to 6, each
corresponding to one of the dashes.
To enter the first digit of the code, press the corresponding button
of the pre-selected stations (from 1 to 6). Enter the other code
numbers in the same way.
If the four digits are not entered within 20 seconds, the display will
show “Enter code----”.Ifthisoccurs, it is not considered an
incorrect code entry.
After entering the fourth digit (within 20 seconds), the radio will
start to operate.
