battery to an earthing point
Eon the
engine or the transmission of the car to
be started;
❒ start the engine; when the engine has
started, remove the leads, reversing the
order above.
If after a few attempts the engine does
not start, do not persist but contact a
dedicated Alfa Romeo Dealership.

accidental contact between metallic
parts of the two cars.

start the engine by pushing, towing or
coasting downhill.
FUEL CUT-OFF SYSTEM
OPERATION
This intervenes in the case of an impact
causing:
❒ the fuel supply cut-off with the engine
consequently switching off;
❒ automatic door lock release;
activation of all lights inside the car;
❒ the switching on of the hazard
warning lights.
The digital warning light and the
dedicated message on the display
indicate the intervention of the system.
Carefully check the vehicle for fuel leaks,
for instance in the engine compartment,
under the vehicle or near the tank area.

by qualified personnel as incorrect
actions may cause high-intensity
electrical discharge. Furthermore,
battery fluid is poisonous and corrosive:
avoid contact with skin and eyes. Keep
naked flames and lighted cigarettes away
from the battery and do not cause sparks.
IMPORTANT
