2013 Alfa Romeo MiTo key

TRIP COMPUTERGENERAL INFORMATIONThe Trip computer is used to display information on car operation
when the key is turned to MAR.
This function allows you to define two separate trips called “Trip A”
and “Trip B” for monitoring the car's "complete journey" in a
reciprocally independent manner.
Both functions are resettable (reset - start of a new journey).
“Trip A” is used to display the figures relating to:
❒Range
❒Distance travelled
❒Average fuel consumption
❒Instant fuel consumption
❒Average speed
❒Trip time (driving time).
“Trip B” may be used to display the figures relating to:
❒Distance travelled B
❒Average consumption B
❒Average speed B
❒Trip time B (driving time).
The “Trip B” function may be disabled (see “Activating Trip B”).
“Range” and “Instant consumption" parameters cannot be reset.
VALUES DISPLAYEDRange
This indicates the indicative distance that may be travelled with the fuel
in the tank, assuming that driving conditions do not change.
The display will show the reading '-----' when the following events take
place:
❒range value lower than 50 km (or 30 mi)
❒car parked with engine running for a long period.
IMPORTANT The range can be affected by several factors: driving style
(see “Driving style” in the “Starting and driving” section), type of
route (motorway, towns and cities, mountain roads, etc.), conditions of
use (load, tyre pressures, etc.). Trip planning must therefore take the
above into account.
Distance covered
Shows the distance covered since the start of the new journey.
Average consumption
Shows the approximate average fuel consumption since the start of the
new journey.
Instantaneous consumption
This indicates the fuel consumption. The value is constantly updated.
The display will show “----”ifthecarisparked with the engine
running.

SYMBOLSSome car components have coloured labels whose symbols indicate
precautions to be observed when using this component. Under the
bonnet there is also a label that summarises all the symbols.
ALFA ROMEO CODE SYSTEMTo further protect your car from theft, it has been fitted with an engine
immobilising system. It is automatically activated when the ignition
key is removed.
Each key contains an electronic device which modulates the signal
emitted during ignition by an antenna built into the ignition device. The
modulated signal, which changes each time the engine is started, is
the “password”, by means of which the control unit recognises the key
and enables to start the engine.OPERATIONEach time the car is started by turning the ignition key to MAR, the
Alfa Romeo CODE system control unit sends an acknowledgement
code to the engine management control unit to deactivate the inhibitor.
The code is sent only if the Alfa Romeo CODE system control unit has
recognised the code transmitted from the key.
Each time the ignition key is turned to STOP, the Alfa Romeo CODE
system deactivates the functions of the engine management control
unit. If, during starting, the code is not correctly recognised, the
warning light switches on in the instrument panel.
In this case, turn the key to STOP and then to MAR; if it is still locked,
try again with the other keys that come with the vehicle. If you are
still unable to start the engine contact Alfa Romeo Authorized Services.
