illuminate the street and increase the
light angle while turning. This function isenabled by rotating the light switch to
position
orAUTO. The SBL LEDs
activate if the speed exceeds 12 mph
(20 km/h) and the steering radius is
below 1640 ft (500 m).
HEADLIGHT ALIGNMENT ADJUSTMENT
Headlight alignment corrector
(where provided)
This device is not available on vehicles
equipped with Xenon headlights
(Bi-Xenon 35 W headlamp version), as
they require an automatic alignment
correction system.
It only operates with the ignition device
at ON.
To adjust it, rotate the ring nut fig. 31.
Position 0: one or two people on the
front seats;
Position 1: 4 or 5 passengers;
Position 2: 4 or 5 passengers + load in
the luggage compartment
Position 3: driver + maximum
admissible load stowed only in the
luggage compartment
IMPORTANT Check the headlight
alignment each time the weight of the
load transported changes.
INSTRUMENT PANEL AND CONTROL
BUTTON GRAPHIC BRIGHTNESS
ADJUSTMENT
With side lights or headlights on, operate
on the ring nut fig. 32 upwards to
increase light brightness of the
instrument panel and of the control
button graphics, or turn the ring nut
downwards to decrease it. The control is
pulsed so that for every action the level
intensity increases/decreases, up to a
maximum of seven.

until 3-4 years old), since this is the most

The choice of the most suitable child
restraint system depends on the weight
and size of the child. There are various
types of child restraint systems, which
can be secured to the vehicle by means of
the seat belts or with the ISOFIX/i-Size
anchorages.
It is recommended to always choose the
restraint system most suitable for the
child; for this reason always refer to the
Owner Handbook provided with the child
restraint system, to be sure that it is of
the right type for the children it is
intended for.In Europe the characteristics of child
restraint systems are ruled by the
regulation ECE-R44, dividing them into
five weight groups:
Group Weight groups
Group 0up to 22lb (10 kg)
in weight
Group 0+up to 29 lb (13 kg)
in weight
Group 1 22-40 lb (9-18 kg)
Group 2 33-55 lb (15-25 kg)
Group 3 48-80 lb (22-36 kg)
The ECE-R44 standard was recently
paired with the ECE R-129 regulation,
which defines the characteristics of the
new i-Size child restraint systems (see
the "Suitability of passenger seats for
i-Size child restraint system use"
paragraph for more information).
All restraint devices must bear the
certification data, together with the
control mark, on a label solidly fixed to
the child restraint system which must
never be removed.
Lineaccessori includes child restraint
systems for each weight group. These
devices are recommended having been
specifically tested for Alfa Romeo cars.
FITTING A CHILD RESTRAINTSYSTEM
WITH SEAT BELTS
The Universal child restraint systems
installed with the seat belts only are
type-approved on the basis of the ECE
R44 standard and are divided into
various weight groups.

IMPORTANT The figures are indicative
and provided for assembly purposes
only. Fit the child restraint system
according to the instructions, which must
be included.
Group 0 and 0+
Babies weighing up to 29 lb (13 kg) must
be carried with a rear facing child
restraint system of a type as shown in
fig. 84 which, supporting the head, does
not induce stress on the neck in the event
of sudden decelerations.

INSTALLING AN ISOFIX CHILD CARSEAT
81) 82) 83) 84) 85)
The rear side seats of the vehicle are
equipped with ISOFIX attachments, for
fitting child restraint systems quickly,
simply and safely.
The ISOFIX system lets you install the
ISOFIX child restraining system without
using the car seat belts but connecting
them directly to the carseat with three
anchors in the car.
Traditional child restraint systems can be
fitted alongside ISOFIX child restraint
systems on different seats in the same
vehicle.
To install an ISOFIX child restraint
system, attach it to the two metal
anchors 1 fig. 88 which can be reached
lifting the doors 2 located behind the
cushion of the rear seat, in the point
where it meets the backrest, then fix the
upper hook (available with the child
restraint system) to the dedicated
anchor "top tether" 3 fig. 89 located
behind the seat headrest.As an example, fig. 90 shows an example
of a Universal ISOFIX child restraint
system for weight group 1.
IMPORTANT The fig. 90 is indicative and
for assembly purposes only. Fit the child
restraint system according to the
instructions, which must be included.
NOTE When a Universal ISOFIX child
restraint system is used, only ECE R44
"ISOFIX Universal” (R44/03 or further
upgrades) type-approved child restraint
systems can be used (see fig. 91 ).
The other weight groups are covered by
specific ISOFIX child restraint systems,
which can be used only if specifically
tested for this vehicle (see list of vehicles
provided with the child restraint system).

SUITABILITY OF PASSENGER SEATS
FOR i-Size CHILD RESTRAINTSYSTEM
USE
The rear side seats of the vehicle are
type-approved to house the
state-of-the-art i-Size child restraint
systems.
These child restraint systems, built and
type-approved according to the i-Size
(ECE R129) standard, ensure better
safety conditions to carry children on
board a vehicle:
the child must be transported
rearward facing until 15 months;
child restraint system protection is
increased in the event of a side collision;
the use of the ISOFIX system is
promoted to avoid faulty installation of
the child restraint system;
efficiency in the choice of the child
restraint system, which isn't made
according to weight anymore but
according to the child's height, is
increased;
compatibility between the vehicle
seats and the child restraint systems is
better: the i-Size child restraint systems
can be considered as "Super ISOFIX"; this
means that they can be perfectly fitted in
type-approved i-Size seats, but can also
be fitted in ISOFIX (ECE R44)
type-approved seats.
NOTE The vehicle seats, i-Size
type-approved, are marked by thesymbol shown in fig. 92.
