WARNING

111
116)Alfa 4C is designed and produced
for road use, in compliance with the
current regulations. Car use in the track
must be considered as occasional and in
any case under the responsibility of the
user. The car CANNOT be modified or
tampered with for any reason; this would
alter the Manufacturer homologation
and/or safety requirements. Using a
modified or tampered product relieves
the Manufacturer from any responsibility
on the product and may expose people to
serious risks.
117)Never smoke while working in the
engine compartment: gas and
inflammable vapours may be present,
with the risk of fire.
118)Be very careful when working in the
engine compartment when the engine is
hot: you may get burned.
119)If the engine oil is being topped up,
wait for the engine to cool down before
loosening the filler cap, particularly for
vehicles with aluminium cap (where
provided). WARNING: risk of burns!
120)The cooling system is pressurised.
If necessary, only replace the cap with
another original one or the operation of
the system may be adversely affected.
Do not remove the reservoir plug when
the engine is hot: you risk scalding
yourself.
IMPORTANT121)Do not travel with the windscreen
washer fluid reservoir empty: the
windscreen washer is essential for
improving visibility. Repeated operation
of the system without fluid could damage
or cause rapid deterioration of some
system components.
122) Some commercial additives for
windscreen washer fluid are flammable.
The engine compartment contains hot
components which may start a fire.
123)Brake fluid is poisonous and highly
corrosive. In the event of accidental
contact, immediately wash the affected
parts with water and mild soap.
Then rinse thoroughly. Call a doctor
immediately if swallowed.
124) The πsymbol on the container
indicates a synthetic brake fluid, which is
different from a mineral fluid. Using a
mineral fluid will damage the special
rubber seals of the braking system
beyond repair.
14)Be careful not to confuse the various
types of fluids while topping up: they are
not compatible with one another! Topping
up with an unsuitable fluid could severely
damage your vehicle.
15)The oil level must never exceed the
MAX reference.
16)Do not add oil with specifications
other than those of the oil already in the
engine.
17)PARAFLU
UPanti-freeze fluid is used in
the engine cooling system; use the same
fluid type as that already in the cooling
system when topping up.
PARAFLU
UPmay not be mixed with other
types of anti-freeze fluids. In the event of
topping up with an unsuitable product,
under no circumstances start the engine
and contact a dedicated Alfa Romeo
Dealership.
18)Prevent brake fluid, which is highly
corrosive, from coming into contact with
painted parts. Should it happen, wash
immediately with water.
19)Be very careful when restoring /
topping up the brake fluid level, as it may
be leaking from the extension pipe, inside
the vehicle bonnet and parts of
windscreen and body, causing corrosion
damages. Provide for the use of
appropriate guards (e.g. absorbent paper)
in order to limit this risk at most.
WARNING
4)Used engine oil and oil filters contain
substances which are harmful to the
environment. You are advised to go to a
dedicated Alfa Romeo Dealership to have
the oil and filters changed.
