2016 Alfa Romeo 4C Spider light

(#) The spark plug change interval is mileage based only,
yearly intervals do not apply. The following are essential
to ensure correct operation and prevent serious damage
to the engine:
•Only use spark plugs of the same make and type
which are specially certified for such engines (refer to
“Fluids, Lubricants and Genuine Parts” in “Maintain-
ing Your Vehicle” for further information).
• Strictly comply with the spark plug replacement inter-
val given in the maintenance schedule for spark plug
replacement.
• Contact your Alfa Romeo Dealer if you have questions. (*) Regardless of the distance covered, the timing belt
must be changed every 4 years for particularly demand-
ing use (cold climates, city driving, long periods of
idling) or at least every 5 years.
(**) The actual interval for changing the oil and replacing
the engine oil filter depends on the vehicle usage condi-
tions and is signalled by the warning light or message (if
present) on the instrument panel or every 12 months.
(***) If the vehicle is operated in a dusty or dirty
environment the engine air filter has to be changed every
6,500 miles (10,000 km).
