PRESCRIPTIONS FOR HANDLING THE VEHICLE AT THE END OF ITS LIFE
(where provided)
FCA has been committed for many years to safeguarding the environment through the constant improvement of its production
processes and manufacturing products that are increasingly "eco-compatible". To grant customers the best possible service in terms
of respecting environmental laws and in response to European Directive 2000/53/EC governing vehicles at the end of their life, FCA
is offering its customers the chance to hand over their vehicle at the end of its life without incurring any additional costs. The
European Directive sets out that when the vehicle is handed over, the last keeper or owner should not incur any expenses as a result
of it having a zero or negative market value.
To hand your vehicle over at the end of its life without extra cost, contact one of our dealerships if you are purchasing another vehicle
or an FCA-authorised collection and scrapping centre. These centres have been carefully chosen to offer high quality service for the
collection, treatment and recycling of vehicles at their end of life, respecting the surrounding environment.

ANTITHEFT PROTECTION
The system is equipped with an anti-theft
protection system based on the
exchange of information with the
electronic control unit (Body Computer)
on the vehicle. This guarantees maximum
safety and prevents the secret code from

been disconnected. If the check has a
positive outcome, the system will start to
operate.
If the comparison codes are not the same
or if the electronic control unit (Body
Computer) is replaced, the system will
ask the user to enter the secret codeaccording to the procedure described in
the paragraph below.
Entering the secret code
When the system is switched on, if the
code is requested, the display will show
"Please enter Anti-Theft Code" followed
by the screen showing a keypad to enter
the secret code.
The secret code is made up of four digits,
from 1 to 9: to insert the first number of
the code press the corresponding key on
the display. Enter the other code digits in
the same way. After entering the fourth
digit, the system begins operating. If an
incorrect code is entered, the system
displays "Incorrect Code" to notify the
user of the need to enter the correct
code.
After the 3 available attempts to enter
the code, the system displays "Incorrect
Code. Radio locked. Please wait
30 minutes” (the waiting time is
displayed). After the text has
disappeared it is possible to start the
code entering procedure again.

This document certifies ownership of the
system. The vehicle radio passport shows
the system model, serial number and
secret code.

lost, contact an Alfa Romeo Dealership,taking an ID document and the car
ownership documents.
