The rear doors are fitted with an emergency device that allows the
doors to be locked when there is no current.
In this case proceed as follows:
❒insert the metal insert of the ignition key into housing B fig. 67;
❒turn the key anticlockwise and then remove it from housing B.The door lock knob can be realigned (only when the battery charge

locking procedure carried out, operating the internal handle
will not open the door but will only realign the door lock
knobs. To open the door, the outside handle must be used. The door
central locking/unlocking button
is not disabled by the
engagement of the emergency lock.

Anti-crush safety device
The car is equipped with an anti-crush function for the raising of the
front and rear windows.
This safety system detects the presence of an obstacle during the
window closing travel and intervenes by stopping and reversing the
window travel, depending on its position. This device is also useful
if the windows are activated accidentally by children on board the car.
The anti-crush safety function is active both during the manual and
the automatic operation of the window. When the anti-crush system is
activated, the window travel is immediately interrupted and then
reversed. The window cannot be operated in any way during this time.
IMPORTANT If the anti-crush protection intervenes 5 consecutive times
within a minute or is faulty, the automatic closing operation of the
window is inhibited, only allowing it in steps of half a second with the
button released for the subsequent manoeuvre.
In order to restore the correct operation of the system, the relevant
window must be lowered.
IMPORTANT With ignition key at STOP or removed, the electric
windows remain active for about 3 minutes and are deactivated when
a door is opened.
IMPORTANT With the anti-crush system, when the
button on the
remote control is pressed for longer than 2 seconds the windows will
open, whilst if the
button is pressed for longer than 2 seconds
the windows will close.
The system conforms to the 2000/4/EC standard concerning
the safety of passengers leaning out of the passenger
compartment.Incorrect use of the electric windows may be
dangerous. Before and during operation, always check
that no passenger is at risk of being injured directly
by the moving window or by objects getting caught in or
dragged by the window. When leaving the car, always remove
the key from the ignition to prevent accidental operation of the
electric windows from being a hazard for those still on board.
Electric window system initialisation
The system must be re-initialised after disconnecting the battery or if
the relevant protection fuse is blown.
Initialisation procedure:
❒fully close the window to initialise with manual operation;
❒after the window has reached the upper end of travel, hold down
the closing control for at least 1 second.
For versions/markets where provided, after a break in power supply
for the control units (battery replaced or disconnected or protective
fuses for the electric window control units replaced), the automatic
operation of the windows must be restored.

HEADLIGHTSLIGHT BEAM DIRECTIONThe correct orientation of the headlights is important for the driver's
comfort and safety as well as for all other road users. This is also
covered by a specific rule of the highway code.
The headlights must be correctly aligned to ensure the best visibility
conditions for yourself and others when driving with lights on. To check
and, if necessary, adjust, contact Alfa Romeo Authorized Services.HEADLIGHT ALIGNMENT CORRECTORThis device works with the ignition key in the MAR position and the
dipped headlights on.
Headlight alignment adjustment
To adjust, press the
and
fig. 81 buttons. The adjustment
position is shown on the display.
Position 0
one or two people in the front seats.
Position 1
4 people.
Position 2
4 people + load in luggage compartment.
Position 3
driver + maximum permitted load stowed in the luggage
compartment.
IMPORTANT Check the alignment every time that the load carried
changes.
IMPORTANT If the car is equipped with Bixenon headlights, the
headlight alignment is controlled electronically, as a consequence the
and
buttons are not present.
FOG LIGHT ALIGNMENT(for versions/markets, where provided)
To check and, if necessary, adjust, contact Alfa Romeo Authorized
Services.ADJUSTING THE HEADLIGHTS ABROADThe dipped headlights are aligned to comply with the regulations of
the country of purchase. When travelling in countries with opposite
driving direction, to avoid dazzling the drivers on the other side of the
road, you need to cover areas of the headlight according to the
Highway code of the country you are travelling in.

ENGINE STOPPING FAILURE
CONDITIONSWhen the system is operating, due to comfort, emission control and
safety reasons, the engine does not stop in some conditions, among
which:
❒engine still cold;
❒especially cold outside temperature;
❒battery not sufficiently charged;
❒particulate filter regeneration (DPF) in progress (diesel engines only);
❒driver's door not shut;
❒driver's seat belt not fastened;
❒reverse gear engaged (for example, for parking manoeuvres);
❒for versions equipped with dual zone automatic climate control (for
versions/markets, where provided), if an adequate level of thermal
comfort has not been reached or with MAX-DEF function activation;
❒during the first period of use, to initialise the system.
If the climate comfort is to be favoured, the Start&Stop
system can be deactivated, for a continuous operation of
the climate control system.
ENGINE RESTARTING CONDITIONSDue to comfort, emission control and safety reasons, the engine can
restart automatically without any action by the driver, under special
conditions, such as:
❒battery not sufficiently charged;
❒reduced braking system vacuum (e.g. if the brake pedal is pressed
repeatedly);
❒car moving (e.g. when driving on roads with a gradient);
❒engine stopping by Start&Stop system for over 3 minutes;
❒for versions equipped with dual zone automatic climate control
system (for versions/markets, where provided), if an adequate level
of thermal comfort has not been reached or MAX-DEF function
activation.
With gear engaged, automatic engine restarting is possible only by
fully depressing the clutch pedal. The driver is informed by the
displaying of a message on the display and - for versions/markets,
where provided - by the flashing of the symbol
.
Notes
If the clutch is not pressed, about 3 minutes after the engine stops, the
engine can be restarted only using the ignition key.
In cases when the engine stops and this is not desired, due for example
to the clutch pedal being released sharply with a gear engaged, if the
Start&Stop system is activated, the engine can be restarted by fully
depressing the clutch pedal or by placing the gear lever in neutral.

SAFETY FUNCTIONSWhen the engine is stopped by the Start&Stop system, if the driver
releases his/her seat belt and opens the driver's or passenger's door,
the engine can be restarted only using the ignition key.
The driver is informed by a buzzer and by the flashing of the symbol
on the display; on some versions, a message is displayed as well.
"ENERGY SAVING" FUNCTION(for versions/markets, where provided)
If, following automatic engine restarting, the driver does not carry out
any action on the car for over 3 minutes, the Start&Stop system stops
the engine once and for all, to prevent fuel consumption. In these
cases, the engine can be restarted only using the ignition key.
NOTE In any case, it is possible to keep the engine running by
deactivating the Start&Stop system.IRREGULAR OPERATIONIn the event of malfunction, the Start&Stop system is deactivated.
The driver is informed of the fault by the flashing
symbol (versions
with multifunction display) or
symbol (versions with reconfigurable
multifunction display). For versions/markets where provided, a
message is also displayed.
In this case, contact Alfa Romeo Authorized Services.
CAR INACTIVITYIn the event of car inactivity (or if the battery is replaced), special
attention must be paid to the disconnection of the battery power
supply.
Proceed as follows: detach the connector A fig. 90 (by pressing button
B) from sensor C for monitoring the status of the battery installed on
the negative battery pole D. This sensor should never be disconnected
from the pole except if the battery is replaced.
In case of battery replacement, always contact Alfa
Romeo Authorized Services. Replace the battery with
one of the same type (HEAVY DUTY) and with the same
specifications.
IMPORTANT After turning the ignition key to STOP, wait at least 1
minute before disconnecting the electrical supply to the battery.
