position C fig. 28. Turn the device 1 again
to position C to return the mirrors to the
driving position. If device 1 is turned
again during door mirror folding (from

folded operating on the device 1, they
could be returned to the driving position
only operating a new control on the
device.Activation/deactivation of the function
The electric mirror folding function can
be activated/deactivated using the
Connect system menu (the default
setting of the function is “Off”).
Alternatively, you can choose to

roads on a gradient, the front wheels must
be steered towards the pavement (when
parking downhill), or in the opposite
direction if the vehicle is parked uphill. Block
the wheels with a wedge or a stone if the car
is parked on a steep slope.
107)Never leave children alone in an
unattended vehicle; make sure that when

terminal (–) of the flat battery. The following
spark could lead to battery explosion and
cause serious harm. Only use the specific
earth point; do not use any other exposed
metallic part.FUEL CUT-OFFSYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
The vehicle is equipped with a system
that cuts off the fuel supply in the event
of an impact, causing the engine to stop.
This safety device is controlled by the
ORC control unit, which manages all the
occupant protection systems. Depending
on the type and violence of the impact,
this control unit determines whether or
not to activate the airbags and the front
seatbelt pretensioners and whether or
not to immediately interrupt the current
from the batteries to the supply pumps
and to the devices that make the engine
operate. The power from the battery is
interrupted by "skipping" the pyrotechnic
fuse placed on the fusebox next to the
positive pole of the battery.
When the fuse is "skipped", only some
services, necessary for the safety of the
vehicle (eg: door locks, anti-theft device,
etc.), remain powered.
IMPORTANT After the impact, carefully
check the vehicle for fuel leaks, for
instance in the engine compartment,
under the vehicle or near the tank area.
IMPORTANT Contact an Alfa Romeo
Dealership to have the system checked.
