STEERING LOCK(where provided)
Activation
The steering lock is engaged when the
driver door is opened with the ignition
device button at STOP.
Deactivation
The steering lock disengages when the
ignition device is pressed and the
electronic key is recognised.
WARNING
1)Always take the key with you when you
leave your vehicle to prevent someone from
accidentally operating the controls.
Remember to engage the electric parking
brake. Never leave children unattended in
the vehicle.
2)It is absolutely forbidden to carry out any
after-market operation involving steering
system or steering column modifications
(e.g. installation of anti-theft device) that
could adversely affect performance,
invalidate the warranty, cause SERIOUS
SAFETY PROBLEMS and also result in the
car not meeting type-approval
requirements.3)Before leaving the vehicle, ALWAYS
engage the handbrake. On versions
equipped with automatic transmission,
activate mode P (Park) and press the ignition
device to set it to STOP. When leaving the
vehicle, always lock all the doors by pressing
the button on the handle.
4)For versions equipped with the Keyless
Start system, do not leave the electronic key
inside or near the car or in a place accessible
to children. Do not leave the vehicle with the
ignition device in ON position. A child could
activate the electric window winders, other
controls or even start the vehicle.
5)If the ignition device has been tampered
with (e.g. an attempted theft), have it
checked over by the Alfa Romeo Dealership
before driving again.
ENGINE IMMOBILIZER
The Engine Immobilizer system prevents
unauthorised use of the vehicle
preventing to start the engine.
The system does not need to be
enabled/activated: operation is
automatic, regardless of the fact that the
vehicle's doors are locked or unlocked.
When the ignition device is set to ON, the
Engine Immobilizer system identifies the
code transmitted by the key. If the code
is recognised as valid, the Engine
Immobilizer system enables engine
starting.
When the ignition device is brought back
to STOP, the Engine Immobilizer system
deactivates the control unit controlling
the engine, thus preventing its starting.
For the correct engine starting
procedures, see the instructions in the
"Starting the engine" paragraph,
"Starting and driving" chapter.

KNOWING YOUR CAR

Irregular operation
If, during starting, the key code is not
correctly recognised, the
icon is
displayed on the instrument panel (see
the instructions in the "Warning lights and
messages" paragraph, "Knowing the
instrument panel" chapter). This
condition leads to the engine switching
off after 2 seconds. In this case, bring the
ignition device to STOP and then to ON; if
it is still blocked, try with the other keys
provided. If it is still not possible to start
the engine, contact an Alfa Romeo
Dealership.
If the
icon is displayed while driving,
this means that the system is running a
self-diagnosis (e.g. due to a voltage drop).
If the display persists, contact an Alfa
Romeo Dealership.

JUMP STARTING
151) 152) 153)
Proceed as follows:
switch off all electrical devices in the
vehicle;
engage the parking brake, move the
lever to P (Park), for versions equipped
with automatic transmission, or neutral,
for versions with manual gearbox, then
set the ignition device to STOP;
should you be using the battery of
another vehicle, park the other vehicle
within the range of the cables used for
the connection, operate the parking
brake and ensure that its ignition is off.
IMPORTANT If the auxiliary battery is
installed on another vehicle, check that
there is no accidental contact of metal
parts between the two vehicles, since an
earth connection may result, with the risk
of serious injury to any people who may
be nearby.
IMPORTANT If the procedure below is
carried out incorrectly, it can cause
severe injury to people or damage the
recharging system of one or both
vehicles. Carefully follow the instructions
given below.
Cable connection
64)
Proceed as follows to carry out a jump
starting:
connect a terminal on the end of the
positive cable from the remote positive
pole (+) of the car with flat battery;
connect the terminal on the opposite
end of the positive (+) cable to the
positive (+) pole of the auxiliary battery;
connect a negative cable end terminal
to the negative (-) pole of the auxiliary
battery;
connect the terminal on the opposite
end of the negative (-) cable to the earth
point (-) on the vehicle with the battery
flat;
start the engine of the car with an
auxiliary battery, let it run for some
minutes at idle and then start the engine
of the car with flat battery. In case a
portable battery is used, before starting
the vehicle, wait a few seconds after
completing the connection.
Cable disconnection
Once the engine is started, remove the
connection cables in reverse sequence,
as shown below:
disconnect the negative cable end
terminal (-) from the earth point (-) of the
car with flat battery;
disconnect the terminal on the
opposite end of the negative cable fromthe negative (-) pole of the auxiliary
battery;
disconnect the terminal on the
opposite end of the positive (+) cable
from the positive (+) pole of the auxiliary
battery;
disconnect the terminal on the end of
the positive cable from the remote
positive pole (+) of the car with flat
battery.
WARNING
151)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.
152)Remove any metal objects (e.g. rings,
watches, bracelets), that might cause an
accidental electrical contact and cause
serious injury.
153)The batteries contain acid that can
burn skin or eyes. Batteries produce
hydrogen, which is easily flammable and
explosive. Thus keep away flames or devices
which may cause sparks.
IMPORTANT
63)Never use a fast battery-charger to
start the engine as this could damage the
electronic systems of your vehicle,
particularly the ignition and engine fuel
supply control units.
