ELECTRIC SUN ROOF(for versions/markets, where provided)
The extensively glazed sun roof comprises a moving glass panel and a
sun blind.
The glazed panel, when closed, allows light from the outside to enter
and makes it possible to see the outside from the passenger
compartment.OPERATIONThe sun roof can be operated only with the ignition key turned to MAR.
The controls A and B fig. 54 on the trim next to the front courtesy light
operate the sun roof opening/closing functions.
Roof opening
Pressing button A fig. 54 permits two opening modes for the front
glass panel.Automatic
If button A is held down, the front glass panel is raised from completely
closed to spoiler position.
If the button is pressed again, the panel will start to slide backwards
until it is completely open.
After the initial opening command, the glass panel can be stopped in
intermediate positions by pressing the button again.
Manual
If button A is pressed briefly, the front glass panel moves from
completely closed position and stops in the position where the button is
released. In this case, the panel is opened by pressing the button.
This function makes it possible to place the front panel in intermediate
positions in relation to those produced through automatic opening.
Do not open the sunroof if there is snow or ice on it: you
may damage it.The sun roof must stay closed if a transverse roof rack is
fitted.When leaving the vehicle, always remove the key from
the ignition to avoid the risk of injury to those still
inside the car due to accidental operation of the
sunroof. Improper use of the roof can be dangerous. Before
operation, always check that no-one is at risk of being injured by
the moving sun roof or by objects getting caught and dragged
by it.

ROOF RACK/SKI RACKTo fit the roof rack/ski rack, raise the dedicated tabs A fig. 71 using
the screwdriver provided to access the fixing housings B.
Lineaccessori Alfa Romeo includes a dedicated roof rack/ski rack for
this car.IMPORTANT Take the greatest possible care in following the
instructions on the bar kit to the letter.
After travelling for a short distance, check that the
fixing screws for the attachments are correctly
tightened.Never exceed the maximum permitted loads (see chapter
"Technical specifications").Evenly distribute the load and take into account, when
driving, the increased effect of side wind on the car.Fully comply with the regulations in force concerning
maximum clearance.

SAVING FUELHere are some suggestions which can help you to save fuel and lower
harmful emissions.GENERAL CONSIDERATIONSCar maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried out in accordance with the
“Scheduled Servicing Plan” (see chapter “Maintenance and care”).
Ty r e s
Check the tyre pressure at least once every 4 weeks: if the pressure is
too low, consumption levels increase as resistance to rolling is higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded boot. The weight of the car and its
arrangement greatly affect fuel consumption and stability.
Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack from the roof after use. These
accessories lower aerodynamic penetration and adversely affect
consumption levels. It is better to use a trailer to transport particularly
bulky objects.
Electrical devices
Only use electrical devices for the time needed. The heated rear
window, additional headlights, windscreen wipers and heater fan
require a considerable amount of energy; increasing the current uptake
increases fuel consumption (by up to +25% in an urban cycle).Climate control system
Using the climate control system will increase consumption: use the air
vents when the external temperature allows it.
Devices for aerodynamic control
The use of non-certified devices for aerodynamic control may adversely
affect air drag and fuel consumption.
DRIVING STYLEStarting
Do not warm up the engine at low or high revs when the vehicle is
stationary; this causes the engine to warm up more slowly, thereby
increasing fuel consumption and emissions. It is therefore advisable to
move off immediately, slowly, avoiding high speeds: in this way the
engine will warm up more quickly.
Unnecessary actions
Avoid revving up when at traffic lights or before switching off the
engine. The latter action, like double-declutching, is unnecessary and
causes increased fuel consumption and pollution.
Gear selection
Use a higher gear when traffic and road conditions allow it. Using a
low gear for faster acceleration will increase consumption. In the same
way improper use of a high gear increases consumption, emissions
and engine wear.

FUEL CONSUMPTIONThe fuel consumption figures given in the table below are determined on the basis of the type-approval tests laid down by specific European
Directives.
The procedures below are followed for measuring consumption:
❒urban cycle: cold starting followed by driving that simulates urban use of the car;
❒extra-urban cycle: frequent accelerating in all gears, simulating extra-urban use of the car: speed varies between 0 and 120 km/h;
❒combined fuel consumption: calculated with a weighting of approximately 37% of the urban cycle and 63% of the extra-urban cycle.
IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic conditions, weather conditions, driving style, general condition of the car, trim level/equipment/accessories,
use of the climate control, car load, presence of roof racks and other situations that adversely affect the aerodynamics or wind resistance lead to
different fuel consumption figures than those measured.
IMPORTANT The fuel consumption will get more regular only after having driven the first 3000 km.FUEL CONSUMPTION ACCORDING TO THE CURRENT EUROPEAN DIRECTIVE
