Warning light What it means What to do
EOBD/INJECTION SYSTEM FAILURE
In normal conditions, when the ignition device is brought
to ON, the warning light switches on, but it should switch
off as soon as the engine is started.
The operation of the warning light may be checked by
the traffic police using specific devices. Comply with
the laws and regulations of the country where you are
driving.
11)
Injection system failure
If the warning light remains on, or it switches on whilst
driving, the injection system is not working properly.
The warning light on fixed signals a malfunction in
the supply/ignition system which could cause high
exhaust emissions, a possible loss of performance, poor
driveability and high consumption.
The warning light switches off if the malfunction
disappears, but is still stored by the system.
Under these conditions, the vehicle can continue travelling
at moderate speed but without demanding excessive
effort from the engine or high speed. Prolonged use of
the car with the warning light on constantly may cause
damage. Contact a Dedicated Alfa Romeo Dealership as
soon as possible.
CATALYTIC CONVERTER DAMAGE
If the warning light flashes, it means that the catalytic
converter may be damaged.
Release the accelerator pedal to lower the speed of the
engine until the warning light stops flashing.
Drive at moderate speed, attempting to avoid driving
conditions which may cause the light to flash again, and
contact a Dedicated Alfa Romeo Dealership as soon as
possible.
REAR FOG LIGHT
The warning light switches on when the rear fog light is
turned on.
FUEL RESERVE/LIMITED RANGE
The warning light (or the symbol in the display) switches
on when about 2 UK gal (9 litres) of fuel are left in the
tank.
