KEYS
THE ALFA ROMEO CODE
SYSTEM
In order to enhance protection against thefts,
the vehicle is equipped with an electronic engine
immobilizer system (Alfa Romeo CODE), which
is automatically activated when the ignition key
is removed.
Each starter key contains an electronic device
which transmits a code signal to the Alfa Romeo
CODE control unit, and engine ignition is enabled
only if the key code is recognised by the system.
Two keys are provided with the vehicle.
The key is used for:
- starting
- activating the central door locking system
- deactivating/activating the passenger
airbag (on vehicles equipped with manual
deactivation system)
- opening the luggage compartment lid
electrically
- activating/deactivating the alarm system
During refuelling, hang the cap on the fuel tank
door using the dedicated hook
A .
The cap is linked to the filler neck with a strap, to
prevent it from being lost while refuelling.
The fuel tank door must be closed manually.
Before closing the fuel tank door, check that the
filler cap is fully tightened.
CAUTION
Do not bring open flames or lit
cigarettes close to the filler: risk of
fire!
Also avoid putting your face close to the filler so
as not to inhale noxious fumes.
FUEL TANK DOOR
EMERGENCY OPENING
If necessary, the fuel tank door can be opened by
