2019 Alfa Romeo Stelvio brake

To carry out the operation, you need to
have the correct cables to connect the
auxiliary battery to the remote poles of
the flat battery. Usually, these cables
have terminals at the ends and are
identified by different sheath colours
(red = positive, black = negative).
JUMP STARTING
160) 161) 162)
Proceed as follows:
switch off all electrical devices in the
car;
engage the parking brake, actiate P
(Park) mode and put the starter switch in
the STOP position;
should you be using the battery of
another car, park the other car 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
62)
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 car 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 engineof the car with flat battery. In case a
portable battery is used, before starting
the car, 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 from
the 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
160)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.

IN AN EMERGENCY

take the tow hook from its housing in
the boot and carefully clean the threaded
housing on the vehicle before using it;
tighten the vehicle's tow hook in its
place for about 11 turns.
IMPORTANT The largest work angle of
the cable to fix on the tow hook must not
exceed 15°, as shown in fig. 171.
WARNING
163)Move the ignition device to ON and
then to STOP, without opening the door.
164)The brake servo and the
electromechanical power steering will not
work while the vehicle is being towed. You
will therefore need to apply more force on
the brake pedal and steering wheel. Do not
use flexible ropes when towing, and avoid
jerky movements. While towing, make sure
that the trailer hitch does not damage any
components it is touching. When towing the
car, you must comply with all specific traffic
regulations and adopt an appropriate
driving behaviour. Do not start the engine
while towing the vehicle. Before tightening
the ring, clean the threaded housing
thoroughly. Make sure that the ring is fully
screwed into the housing before towing the
car.

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 maintenance
operations at fixed distance intervals
and, for versions/markets, where
provided, at fixed time intervals, as
described in the Service Schedule.
Before each service, it is always
necessary to carefully follow the
instructions in the Scheduled Servicing
Plan (e.g. periodically check level of
fluids, tyre pressure, etc.).
Scheduled Servicing is offered by an Alfa
Romeo Dealership according to a set
time schedule. 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 consent only.
IMPORTANT Scheduled Servicing
operations are required 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.
