2016 Alfa Romeo Giulietta child

WARNING
106) Using the levers incorrectly
(levers pushed towards the
dashboard, see fig. 137) could
break them.
107) Never leave children
unattended in the car. Always
remove the ignition key when
leaving the car and take the key
with you.
108) The Launch control function is
only available in Dynamic mode.
Regardless of what is explicitly
indicated in the description of
these modes, the ESC and ASR
systems are deactivated during
operation of the Launch Control
function. This means that vehicle
dynamic control is the sole
responsibility of the driver.
Therefore pay the utmost
attention when using the Launch
Control. Take into account traffic
and road surface conditions and
during manoeuvres make sure
there is enough room in the area
concerned.
SAVING FUEL
Here are some suggestions which can
help you to save fuel and lower harmful
emissions.
GENERAL
CONSIDERATIONS
Car maintenance
Checks and adjustments should be
carried out in accordance with the
“Scheduled Servicing Plan” (see
chapter “Maintenance and care”).
Tyres
Check the tyre pressures at least once
every four weeks: if the pressure is
too low, consumption levels increase as
resistance to rolling is higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded boot.
The weight of the car and its
arrangement greatly affect fuel
consumption and stability.Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack
from the roof after use. These
accessories lower aerodynamic
penetration and adversely affect
consumption levels. When transporting
particularly large objects, use a trailer
if possible.
Electrical devices
Use the electrical devices only for the
necessary amount of time. The heated
rear window, additional headlights,
screen wipers and heater fan require a
considerable amount of energy;
increasing the current uptake increases
fuel consumption (by up to +25% in
an urban cycle).
Climate control system
Using the climate control system will
increase consumption: use the air vents
when the temperature outside permits.
Devices for
aerodynamic control
The use of non-certified devices for
aerodynamic control may adversely
affect air drag and fuel consumption.
158
STARTING AND DRIVING

123) Always indicate that the tyre
was repaired using the quick
tyre repair kit. Give the booklet to
the technicians who will be
handling the tyre that was treated
using the kit.
124) Repair is not possible if the
wheel rim is damaged (groove
is deformed, causing air to
escape). Do not remove foreign
bodies (screws or nails) from the
tyre.
125) Do not operate the compressor
for longer than 20 minutes
consecutively. Risk of
overheating. The kit is not suitable
for definitive repairs, so the
repaired tyres may only be used
temporarily.126) The bottle contains ethylene
glycol and latex: it may cause
an allergic reaction. It is harmful if
swallowed. It is irritant for the
eyes. It may cause sensitisation if
inhaled or on contact. Avoid
contact with eyes, skin and
clothes. In the event of contact,
rinse immediately with plenty
of water. If ingested, do not
induce vomiting. Rinse out your
mouth, drink large quantities
of water and seek immediate
medical attention. Keep out of the
reach of children. The product
must not be used by asthmatics.
Do not inhale the vapours during
insertion and suction. Call a
doctor immediately if allergic
reactions are noted. Store the
bottle in its proper compartment,
away from sources of heat. The
sealant fluid has an expiry date.
Replace the bottle containing
out-of-date sealant fluid.CHANGING A BULB
