SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct servicing is crucial for
guaranteeing a long life for the vehicle
under the best conditions.
For this reason, Alfa Romeo has planned
a series of checks and services at fixed
distance intervals and, for
versions/markets, where provided, at
fixed time intervals, as described in the
Scheduled Servicing Plan.
Regardless of the above, it is always
necessary to carefully follow the
instructions in the Scheduled Servicing
Plan (e.g. periodically check level of
liquids, tyre pressure, etc.).
Scheduled Servicing is offered by all Alfa
Romeo Dealerships according to fixed
time or kilometres/miles intervals. If,
during each operation, in addition to the
ones scheduled, the need arises for
further replacements or repairs, these
may be carried out with the owner's
explicit agreement only. If your vehicle is
used frequently for towing, the interval
between one service operation and the
next should be reduced.IMPORTANT NOTES
Scheduled Servicing interventions are
set out by the Manufacturer. Failure to
have them carried out may invalidate the
warranty.
It is advisable to inform the Alfa Romeo
Dealership of any small operating
irregularities without waiting for the next
service.

(*) Where fitted
When the tires are warm, the inflation pressure should be + 0.3 bar in relation to the recommended figure. However, recheck that the
value is correct with the tyre cold.
With snow tyres, add +0.2 bar to the prescribed pressure for standard tyres.
When running at speeds higher than 160 km/h, inflate tyres at full-load pressures.
