WARNING
2) If the ignition device has been
tampered with (e.g. an attempted
theft), have it checked over by
the dedicated Alfa Romeo
Dealership before driving again.
3) Always remove the key when you
leave your car to prevent someone
from accidentally operating the
controls. Remember to engage
the handbrake. Never leave
children unattended in the car.4) It is absolutely forbidden to carry
out any after-market operation
involving steering system or
steering column modifications
(e.g. installation of anti-theft
device) that could adversely affect
performance and safety,
invalidate the warranty and also
result in non-compliance of the
car with type-approval
requirements.
5) Never extract the key while the
car is moving. The steering wheel
would automatically lock as soon
as it is turned. This also applies
to cases in which the car is towed.
SEATS
ADJUSTMENTS
Lengthwise adjustment
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Lift lever A fig. 10 and push the seat
forwards or backwards: in the driving
position your arms should rest on
the rim of the steering wheel.
6) 7)
Alfa Romeo’s advice: the seat must be
adjusted so that the entire sole of the
foot presses on the brake pedal when it
is fully depressed; at the same time,
your right leg must be bent slightly. In
this way, in the event of emergency, the
driver can generate sufficient force to
achieve adequate pressure on the
brake pedal. Moreover, this reduces the
risk of leg injuries in the event of an
accident.

R-134a fluid which, in addition to
being incompatible with the
system’s components, contributes
greatly to the greenhouse effect.

The device cannot be engaged in 1st or
reverse gear: it is advisable to engage
it in 5th gear or higher.
When travelling downhill with the device
engaged, the car may slightly exceed
the stored speed.
When the device is activated, the
digital warning light switches on
together with the relevant message on
the display.
Storing speed
Proceed as follows:
❒turn ring nut A fig. 24 to
and
press the accelerator to reach the
desired speed;
❒move the stalk upwards (+) for at
least 1 second, then release it: the
car speed is now stored and you can
therefore release the accelerator.
If needed (when overtaking for
instance), you can accelerate simply by
pressing the accelerator; when you
release the pedal, the car goes back to
the speed stored previously.Restoring speed
If the device has been deactivated, for
example by pressing the brake pedal,
the stored speed can be restored as
follows:
❒accelerate gradually until a speed
approaching the one stored is
reached;
❒engage the gear selected at the time
that the speed was stored;
❒press the CANCEL/RESUME button
(B fig. 24).
Increasing speed
This can be done in two ways:
❒by pressing the accelerator and
storing the new speed reached
or
❒by moving the stalk upwards (+) until
the new speed, which will be stored
automatically, is reached.
Each movement of the stalk
corresponds to an increase in speed of
about 1 km/h, while keeping the stalk
held upwards will continuously increase
the speed.Decreasing speed
This can be done in two ways:
❒by deactivating the device and then
storing the new speed
or
❒by moving the stalk downwards (–)
until the new speed, which will be
stored automatically, is reached.
Each movement of the stalk will
correspond to a slight reduction in
speed of about 1 km/h, while keeping
the stalk held downwards will decrease
the speed continuously.

The device can be switched off by the
driver in the following ways:
❒by turning ring nut A fig. 24 toO;
❒by switching off the engine;
❒by pressing the CANCEL/RESUME
