WINDOW WINDERS
ELECTRIC WINDOWS
20)
They work with the ignition device in the
ON position and for about 3 minutes
after the ignition device has been turned
to the STOP position. When one of the
front doors is opened this operation is
disabled.
Driver side front door controls
The buttons are located on the door
panel trim. All windows can be controlled
from the driver side door panel fig. 36.
1: front left window opening/closing.
"Continuous automatic" operation during
window opening/closing stage and
anti-pinch system activated.
2: front right window opening/closing.
"Continuous automatic" operation during
window opening/closing stage and
anti-pinch system activated.
3: rear right window opening/closing.
"Continuous automatic" operation during
window opening/closing stage and
anti-pinch system activated.
4: enabling/disabling of rear door
electric window controls;
5: rear left window opening/closing.
"Automatic continuous" operation during
window opening/closing and anti-pinch
system activated.
Window opening
Push the buttons to open the desired
window.
Each button has two position steps.
Press gently (first position step) for
manual "burst" window travel, while
pressing the same button harder (second
position step) activates "continuous
automatic" operation.
If the button is pressed again, the window
will stop in the desired position.Window closing
Lift the buttons to close the desired
window.
The window closing stage occurs
following the same logic described for
the opening stage both of the front door
windows and the rear door windows.
Window anti-pinch safety device
This safety system can recognise the
presence of any obstacle during the
window closing movement. If this occurs,
the system stops the window's
movement and reverts it, depending on
its position.
The anti-pinch safety function is
activated both during the manual and the
automatic operation of the window.
Electric window system initialisation
If power supply is interrupted, the
electric window automatic operation
must be reinitialised.
To perform the initialization procedure,
which must be done on each door with the
doors closed, manually fully close the
window to be initialized.

IN AN EMERGENCY
Page 167 of 244

161)Remove any metal objects (e.g. rings,
watches, bracelets), that might cause an
accidental electrical contact and cause
serious injury.
162)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
61)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.
62)Do not connect the cable to the negative
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
Depending on the type and violence of
the impact, the control unit of the ORC
occupant protection systems determines
whether to activate the airbags and the
front seat belt pretensioners and
whether to immediately interrupt the
current from the batteries to the supply
pumps and to the devices that operate
the engine. 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
car (eg: door locks, anti-theft device, etc.),
remain powered.
IMPORTANT After the impact, carefully
check the car for fuel leaks, for instance
in the engine compartment, under the car
or near the tank area.
IMPORTANT Contact an Alfa Romeo
Dealership to have the system checked.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
GEAR LEVER UNLOCKING
To release the automatic transmission
lever, contact an Alfa Romeo Dealership.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
WARNING
LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT
In the event of an accident or sharp braking, any object placed on the curtain may be projected into the passenger compartment, and risk hurting
the occupants.
INTERIOR FITTINGS
Do not travel with the storage compartment open: it may injure the front seat occupants in the event of an accident.
POWER SUPPLY
Modifications or repairs to the supply system that are not carried out correctly or do not take the system technical specifications into account can
cause malfunctions leading to the risk of fire.
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTIONSYSTEMS
The catalytic converter and particulate filter (DPF) reach very high temperatures during operation. Therefore do not park the vehicle on flammable
materials (e.g. grass, dry leaves, pine needles, etc.): fire hazard.
IMPORTANT
LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT
To avoid damaging the blind, do not place heavy objects on it.
