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.

any case to interrupt the acoustic and visual signal
cycle when activated, it is possible to push the unlock
button or turn the ignition key to MAR-ON for at least
five seconds, after which the system will deactivate.Disarming
To completely disable the alarm (e.g. during a lengthy
period of car inactivity), lock the car by turning the metal
insert of the key in the door lock.
NOTE:If the batteries of the key fob run out or there is a
fault in the system, the alarm can be switched off by
inserting the key in the ignition switch and turning it to
MAR-ON.
Volumetric/Anti-lift Protection
The Vehicle Security Alarm system monitors the doors
and decklid for unauthorized entry and the ignition
switch for unauthorized operation. The system also in-
cludes an intrusion sensor and vehicle tilt sensor. The
intrusion sensor monitors the vehicle interior for motion.
The vehicle tilt sensor monitors the vehicle for any tilting
actions (tow away, tire removal, ferry transport, etc). A
siren with battery backup which senses interruptions of
power and communications is also included.

Research has shown that seat belts save lives, and they
can reduce the seriousness of injuries in a collision. Some
of the worst injuries happen when people are thrown
from the vehicle. Seat belts reduce the possibility of
ejection and the risk of injury caused by striking the
inside of the vehicle. Everyone in a motor vehicle should
be belted at all times.
Enhanced Seat Belt Use Reminder System
(BeltAlert)
The Belt Alert feature is active whenever the ignition
switch is in the START or ON/RUN position. In this
condition if the driver is unbelted, a continuous chime
signal will start for few seconds and the Seat Belt
Reminder Light
will turn on until the driver seat belt
is buckled.
If the driver seat belt is unbuckled once the vehicle speed
is over 12.5 mph (20 km/h) or when travelling at a speed
from 6 to 12.5 mph (10 to 20 km/h) for few seconds, theBeltAlert® warning sequence begins by blinking the Seat
Belt Reminder Light
and sounding an intermittent
chime. Once the sequence starts, it will continue for
the entire duration or until the driver ’s seat belt is
buckled. After the sequence completes, the Seat Belt
Reminder Light
remains illuminated until the driv-
er ’s seat belt is buckled. The driver should instruct all
other occupants to buckle their seat belts.
It is recommended that pets be restrained in the rear seat
(if equipped) in pet harnesses or pet carriers that are
secured by seat belts, and cargo is properly stowed.
BeltAlert can be activated or deactivated by your autho-
rized dealer. Chrysler Group LLC does not recommend
deactivating BeltAlert.

6. To release the seat belt, push the red button on the
buckle. The seat belt will automatically retract to its
stowed position. If necessary, slide the latch plate
down the webbing to allow the seat belt to retract
fully.
Lap/Shoulder Belt Untwisting Procedure
Use the following procedure to untwist a twisted lap/
shoulder belt.
1. Position the latch plate as close as possible to the
anchor point.
2. At about 6 to 12 in (15 to 30 cm) above the latch plate,
grasp and twist the seat belt webbing 180 degrees to
create a fold that begins immediately above the latch
plate.3. Slide the latch plate upward over the folded webbing.
The folded webbing must enter the slot at the top of
the latch plate.
4. Continue to slide the latch plate up until it clears the
folded webbing and the seat belt is no longer twisted.
Seat Belts And Pregnant Women
We recommend that pregnant women use the seat belts
throughout their pregnancy. Keeping the mother safe is
the best way to keep the baby safe.
Pregnant women should wear the lap portion of the seat
belt across the thighs and as snug across the hips as
possible. Keep the seat belt low so that it does not come
across the abdomen. That way the strong bones of the
hips will take the force if there is a collision.
40 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE

MIRRORS
Inside Day/Night Mirror
A single ball joint mirror is provided in the vehicle. It is
a twist on mirror that has a fixed position at the wind-
shield. The mirror installs on the windshield button with
a counterclockwise rotation and requires no tools for
mounting. The mirror head can be adjusted up, down,
left, and right for various drivers. The mirror should be
adjusted to center on the view through the rear window.
Headlight glare from vehicles behind you can be reduced
by moving the small control under the mirror to the night
position (toward the rear of the vehicle). The mirror
should be adjusted while the small control under the
mirror is set in the day position (toward the windshield).
Outside Mirrors
To receive maximum benefit, adjust the outside mirrors
to center on the adjacent lane of traffic and a slight
overlap of the view obtained from the inside mirror.
