AIR BAG FAILURE
Turning the ignition key to
MAR
the warning light on the dial turns on, but it should go off after
approx. 4 seconds. The warning light stays on glowing steadily if there is an operating failure in
the Air bag system.
If the
¬
warning light does not turn on when turning the ignition key
to MAR or if it stays on when travelling, this could indicate a failure in
safety retaining systems; under this condition air bags or pretension-
ers could not trigger in the event of collision or, in a restricted number of cas-
es, they could trigger accidentally. Stop the car and contact Alfa Romeo Autho-
rised Services.
The failure of the
¬
warning light (warning light off) is also indicat-
ed by the flashing for more than the normal 4 seconds of the passen-
ger’s front air bag deactivated warning light.
v
LOW ENGINE OIL PRESSURE
Turning the key to
MAR
the warning light on the dial turns on, but it should go out as soon as
the engine is started.
If the
v
warning light turns on when the car is travelling (on
some versions there is also the m symbol on the reconfig-
urable multifunction display), stop the engine immediately and contact
Alfa Romeo Authorised Services.
