Engine coolant overheating
(red)
Turning the key to the MAR position illuminates the warning light, but it
should switch off after a few seconds.
The warning light turns on when the engine is overheated.
The display will show the dedicated message.
If the warning light comes on when driving, proceed as follows:
❒when driving normally: stop the car, switch off the engine and
check that the water level in the reservoir is not below the MIN
mark. If it is, wait for the engine to cool down then slowly
and carefully open the cap, top up with coolant and check that the
level is between the MIN and MAX marks on the reservoir. Also
check visually for leakages. If the warning light comes on again at
the next engine start-up, contact Alfa Romeo Authorised Services.
❒if the vehicle is used under demanding conditions(e.g.
towing trailers uphill or fully loaded): slow down and, if the warning
light stays on, stop the car. Wait for 2 or 3 minutes with the engine
running and slightly accelerated to further favour the coolant
circulation. Then stop the engine. Check the correct fluid level as
described above.
IMPORTANT Over demanding routes, it is advisable to keep the engine
on and slightly accelerated for a few minutes before switching it off.
Doors not closed correctly
(red)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The warning light (or symbol on the display) lights up when one or
more doors or the tailgate are not closed correctly. An acoustic signal
is activated with the doors open and the car moving.
On some versions the warning light (or symbol on the display) also
lights up when the bonnet is not closed correctly.
EOBD/injection system failure
(amber)
In normal conditions, when the ignition key is turned to MAR-ON the
warning light switches on, but should switch off as soon as the engine
is started.
If the warning light remains on or switches on whilst driving, the
injection system is not working properly; in particular, if the warning
light switches on constantly, this indicates a malfunction in the
supply/ignition system that could cause excessive exhaust emissions, a
possible loss of performance, poor driveability and high fuel
consumption.
A specific message is displayed on certain versions.
Under these conditions, you may continue travelling at moderate speed
without demanding excessive effort from the engine. Prolonged use of
the car with the warning light on may cause damage.
Contact Alfa Romeo Authorized Services as soon as possible.
