AIR CLEANER/POLLEN
FILTER/DIESEL FILTERContact Alfa Romeo Authorized Services to replace the filters.
BATTERYBattery F (see previous pages) does not require the electrolyte to be
topped up with distilled water. A periodic check carried out at Alfa
Romeo Authorized Services is, however, necessary to check efficiency.REPLACING THE BATTERYIf necessary, replace the battery with another genuine battery with the
same specifications. Follow the battery manufacturer's instructions
for maintenance.USEFUL ADVICE FOR EXTENDING THE
LIFE OF YOUR BATTERYTo avoid draining your battery rapidly and maintain its efficiency over
time, carefully observe the following instructions:
❒when you park the car, ensure that the doors, bonnet and flaps are
closed correctly, to prevent any roof lights from remaining on inside
the passenger compartment;
❒switch off all roof lights inside the car: the car is however equipped
with a system which switches all internal lights off automatically;
❒do not keep accessories (e.g. sound system, hazard lights, etc.)
switched on for a long time when the engine is not running;
❒before performing any operation on the electrical system, disconnect
the negative battery pole;
IMPORTANT After the battery is disconnected, the steering must be
initialised. The
warning light switches on to indicate this. To carry
out this procedure, simply turn the steering wheel all the way from one
end to the other or drive in a straight line for about a hundred metres.
