If the fluid level in the reservoir is not
sufficient, proceed as follows:
❒take the black funnel for topping up
the brake fluid and its extension
pipe from the service kit in the
luggage compartment;
❒loosen the reservoir plug and
introduce the funnel F fig. 126 with
the extension pipe in the reservoir
inlet;
❒after topping up, remove the funnel F
with the extension pipe;
❒tighten the reservoir plug;
❒reposition the protection panel and
tighten the 2 self-tapping screws E.
WARNING Be very careful while
removing the plug from the opening to
prevent the plug from falling inside
the vehicle body.
IMPORTANT
21) Be careful not to confuse the
various types of fluids while
topping up: they are not
compatible with each other!
Topping up with an unsuitable
fluid could severely damage your
vehicle.
22) The oil level should never exceed
the MAX mark.
23) Do not add oil with specifications
other than those of the oil already
in the engine.24) PARAFLU
UPanti-freeze fluid is
used in the engine cooling
system; use the same fluid type as
that already in the cooling system
when topping up. PARAFLU
UP
may not be mixed with other types
of anti-freeze fluids. If topping up
with an unsuitable product, under
no circumstances start the engine
and contact a dedicated Alfa
Romeo Dealership.
25) Avoid allowing brake fluid, which
is extremely corrosive, to come
into contact with painted areas.
Should it happen, immediately
wash with water.
26) Be very careful while topping up
the brake fluid, as it could drip
from the extension pipe inside the
vehicle under the engine cover
and on parts of the body and
windscreen, corroding and
damaging them. Adopt suitable
protection (e.g absorbing paper)
to reduce this risk as much as
possible.

SEATS AND FABRIC OR
MICROFIBRE PARTS
Remove dust with a soft brush or a
vacuum cleaner. For better cleaning of
microfibre trim (including the steering
wheel, for versions/markets, where
provided) we advise you to moisten the
brush. Rub the seats with a sponge
moistened with a solution of water and
neutral detergent.LEATHER SEATS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Remove the dry dirt with a chamois
or slightly damp cloth, without exerting
too much pressure. Remove any liquid
or grease stains using an absorbent
dry cloth, without rubbing. Then clean
with a soft cloth or chamois moistened
with water and mild soap. If the stain
persists, use specific products and
observe the instructions carefully.
IMPORTANT Never use alcohol. Make
sure that the cleaning products used
contain no alcohol or alcohol
derivatives, even in small quantities.PLASTIC, CARBON AND
COATED PARTS
Clean interior plastic and visible carbon
parts with a damp cloth (if possible
made from microfibre), and a solution of
water and neutral, non-abrasive
detergent. To clean oily or persistent
stains, use specific products free from
solvents and designed to maintain
the original appearance and colour of
the components.
Remove any dust using a microfibre
cloth, if necessary moistened with
water. The use of paper tissues is not
recommended as these may leave
residues.
IMPORTANT Do not use alcohol,
petrols or derivatives to clean
the instrument panel display.
