GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Check that the corresponding
contacts are not oxidised and that the
corresponding fuse is intact before
changing the bulb. For the location of
fuses, refer to the paragraph “If a fuse
blows” in this chapter.
replace blown bulbs with others of the
same type and power;
after replacing a headlight bulb,
always check its alignment;
IMPORTANT When the weather is cold or
damp or after heavy rain or washing, the
surface of headlights or rear lights may
steam up and/or form drops of
condensation on the inside. This is a
natural phenomenon due to the
difference in temperature and humidity
between the inside and the outside of the
glass which does not indicate a fault and
does not compromise the normal
operation of lighting devices. The mist
disappears quickly when the lights are
turned on, starting from the centre of the
diffuser, extending progressively
towards the edges.

ENGINE OIL
132)
38) 39)
2)
Check that the oil level is between the
MIN and MAX references on the dipstick
1. If the level of the oil is close to or below
the MIN mark, add oil via the filler fitting
2 until the MAX mark is reached.
1.4 Petrol / 1.4 Turbo Petrol/LPG /
1.4 Turbo Multi Air / 1.3 JTD
M-2versions: pull the engine oil dipstick 1,
clean it with a lint-free cloth and insert
it again. Extract it again and check that
the level is between the MIN and MAX
marks on the dipstick.
Turbo TwinAir versions: engine oil
dipstick 1 is integral with the cap 2.
Unscrew the cap, clean the dipstick with a
lint-free cloth, reinsert the dipstick and
screw the cap back on. Unscrew the plug
again and check that the engine oil level is
between the MIN and MAX marks on the
dipstick.
Engine oil consumption
The maximum engine oil consumption is
usually 400 grams every 1000 km. When
the car is new, the engine needs to be run
in; therefore the engine oil consumption
can only be considered stabilised after
the first 5000 - 6000 km.

40)
If the level is too low, unscrew the cap
3 of reservoir and add the fluid described
in the "Technical Specifications" chapter.

WASHING FLUID
134) 135)
If the level is too low, raise the reservoir
cap 4 and add the fluid described in the
"Technical Specifications" chapter.
BRAKE FLUID
136) 137)
41)
Check that the fluid is at the max. level. If
the fluid level in the reservoir is too low,
undo the reservoir cap 5 and add the fluid
described in the "Technical
Specifications" chapter.
ALFA TCT ACTIVATIONSYSTEM OIL(where provided)
3)
The transmission control oil level should
only be checked at an Alfa Romeo
Dealership.
IMPORTANT
37)Be careful not to confuse the various
types of fluids while topping up: they are not
compatible with each other! Topping up with
an unsuitable fluid could severely damage
your vehicle.
38)The oil level must never exceed the MAX
reference.
39)Do not add oil with specifications other
than those of the oil already in the engine.
40)Use a fluid of the same type as that
already present in the reservoir for any
topping up of the engine cooling system. The
fluid cannot be mixed with other types of
antifreeze fluids. In the event of topping up
with an unsuitable product, under no
circumstances start the engine and contact
an Alfa Romeo Dealership.
41)Prevent brake fluid, which is highly
corrosive, from coming into contact with
painted parts. Should it happen, immediately
wash with water.
WARNING
130)Never smoke while working in the
engine compartment: gas and inflammable
vapours may be present, with the risk of fire.
131)Be very careful when working in the
engine compartment when the engine is hot:
you may get burned. Do not get too close to
the radiator cooling fan: the electric fan may
start; danger of injury. Scarves, ties and
other loose clothing might be pulled by
moving parts.
