NOTE:
•The engine locking function is guaranteed by the Alfa
Romeo CODE, which is automatically activated when
the key is extracted from the ignition switch.
•The alarm is adapted to meet requirements in various
countries.
To Arm The System
With the doors and decklid closed and the ignition key
either turned to STOP or removed, point the key towards
the vehicle then push and release the lock button.
The system emits an acoustic and visual signal and
activates door locking.
A self-diagnosis stage lasting approximately 30 seconds
precedes the activation of the alarm. During the self-
diagnosis, the vehicle security light flashes in the instru-
ment panel at a frequency of about one flash per second.After the self-diagnosis stage, the vehicle security light
flashes at a lower frequency (approximately one flash
every three seconds).
If, after the alarm is switched on, a second acoustic signal
is emitted and/or a visual signal via the vehicle security
light in the instrument panel, wait about four seconds
and switch off the alarm by pushing the lock button,
check that the doors and decklid are closed correctly and
then reactivate the system by pushing the unlock button.
If the alarm emits an acoustic signal even when the doors
and decklid are closed correctly, a system malfunction
has occurred: in this case, contact a dedicated Alfa Romeo
Dealership.

If a perimeter violation triggers the security system, the
siren will sound for 30 seconds and the exterior lights
will flash followed by approximately five seconds of no
activity. This will continue for eight cycles if no action is
taken to disarm the system.
The alarm takes approximately 20 seconds to arm once
the doors are locked with the key fob and once armed,
the LED indicator on the dash will blink whenever the
system is armed. If motion is detected during the arming
period, the motion detection system is disabled.
To ensure the correct operation of the protection, com-
pletely close the side windows. If a perimeter violation
triggers the security system, the siren will sound and the
exterior lights will flash.
To disable the volumetric protection, turn the ignition
key from STOP to MAR-ON twice in a row, then activate
the alarm within 15 seconds, pushing the lock button onthe remote control. When the function is deactivated, this
is indicated by the vehicle security light in the instrument
panel flashing for several seconds.
To disable the anti-lift protection, the ignition key must
be turned from STOP to MAR-ON three times in a row,
followed by activating the alarm within 15 seconds,
pushing the lock button on the remote control.
When the function is deactivated, this is indicated by the
vehicle security light in the instrument panel flashing for
several seconds.
Any disabling of the volumetric/anti-lift protection must
be repeated each time the instrument panel is switched
off.

NOTE:If BeltAlert has been deactivated, the Seat Belt
Reminder Light
will continue to illuminate while the
driver ’s seat belt remains unbuckled and a continuous
chime will sound when the ignition switch is first
placed in the START or ON/RUN position.
Lap/Shoulder Belts
All seating positions in your vehicle are equipped with
lap/shoulder belts.
The seat belt webbing retractor will lock only during very
sudden stops or collisions. This feature allows the shoul-
der part of the seat belt to move freely with you under
normal conditions. However, in a collision the seat belt
will lock and reduce your risk of striking the inside of the
vehicle or being thrown out of the vehicle.
This seat belt system has a retractor assembly that is
designed to release webbing in a controlled manner. Thisfeature is designed to help reduce the seat belt force
acting on the occupant’s chest.
WARNING!
•Relying on the air bags alone could lead to more
severe injuries in a collision. The air bags work
with your seat belt to restrain you properly. In
some collisions, the air bags won’t deploy at all.
Always wear your seat belt even though you have
air bags.
•In a collision, you and your passengers can suffer
much greater injuries if you are not properly buck-
led up. You can strike the interior of your vehicle or
other passengers, or you can be thrown out of the
vehicle. Always be sure you and others in your
vehicle are buckled up properly.

WARNING!(Continued)
•A seat belt that is buckled into the wrong buckle
will not protect you properly. The lap portion could
ride too high on your body, possibly causing inter-
nal injuries. Always buckle your seat belt into the
buckle nearest you.
•A seat belt that is too loose will not protect you
properly. In a sudden stop, you could move too far
forward, increasing the possibility of injury. Wear
your seat belt snugly.
•
A seat belt that is worn under your arm is dangerous.
Your body could strike the inside surfaces of the
vehicle in a collision, increasing head and neck
injury. A seat belt worn under the arm can cause
internal injuries. Ribs aren’t as strong as shoulder
bones. Wear the seat belt over your shoulder so that
your strongest bones will take the force in a collision.
(Continued)
WARNING!(Continued)
A shoulder belt placed behind you will not protect
you from injury during a collision. You are more
likely to hit your head in a collision if you do not
wear your shoulder belt. The lap and shoulder belt
are meant to be used together.
A frayed or torn seat belt could rip apart in a collision
and leave you with no protection. Inspect the seat
belt system periodically, checking for cuts, frays, or
loose parts. Damaged parts must be replaced imme-
diately. Do not disassemble or modify the seat belt
system. Seat belt assemblies must be replaced after a
collision.2
