(1) Always only use the liquids shown in the handbook for topping up after having checked that the system is not damaged.
(2) The maximum mileage is 60,000 km. The belt must be replaced every 4 years, regardless of distance travelled. If the vehicle is used in heavy
conditions (dusty areas, particularly harsh weather conditions, very low or very high temperatures for extended periods, urban driving, long periods
of idling), the maximum mileage is 30,000 km. The belt must be replaced every 2 years regardless of the mileage.
(3) The replacement must be performed according to mileage and regards of the elapsed time. The following are vital in order to ensure correct
operation and prevent serious damage to the engine: - only use spark plugs specifically certified for the engine itself of the same type and brand (see
the "Engine" paragraph in the "Technical Specifications" chapter); - strictly comply with the spark plug replacement intervals in the Service Schedule.
It is advisable to contact a Dedicated Alfa Romeo Dealership for plug replacement.

(5) The brake fluid replacement has to be done every two years, irrespective of the mileage.
(6) The actual interval for changing the brake pads and the carbon ceramic brake discs depends on the car usage conditions and is signalled by the
warning light or message on the instrument panel. Use the diagnosis equipment to reset the warning light every time the discs are replaced.
(7) The battery in the Alfa Connect Box system must be replaced every 5 years, regardless of mileage.
