Faulty ABS anti

wheel-locking

This warning light comes on when the

system is inefficient. In this case normal

braking is ensured without though, mak-

ing use of the ABS system. Alfa Romeo

Authorized Services should however be

contacted as soon as possible.

When the ignition key is turned to

MAR the warning light comes on but

must go out after approx. 4 seconds.

Presence of water

in the fuel oil filter

(JTD 20V Multijet versions)

When the ignition key is turned to the

MAR position the warning light should

come on and must go out after approx. 4

seconds.

The warning light switches on fixed

when driving, to indicate the presence of

water in the fuel oil filter.

In case the indicator light switches on,

even if just for a few seconds, we recom-

mend to contact an Alfa Romeo Autho-

rised Service as soon as possible in order

to purge the water from the fuel oil filter

and avoid severe damages to the injec-

tion pump and to the fuel oil supply cir-

cuit as well as the engine irregular opera-

tion.

c

Glowplugs

(JTD 20V Multijet versions)

The warning light comes on

when the ignition key is turned to MAR

position. When the glowplugs have

reached the established temperature the

warning light will go out. Start the en-

gine as soon as the warning light has

gone out.

For versions/markets where applica-

ble, the warning light flashes for approx.

30 seconds after starting the engine

meaning that there is a fault to the glow

plug warning system, in which case,

contact Alfa Romeo Authorized Services.

With a high ambient temperature the

warning light may turn on imperceptibly.

m

The car is fitted with an

electronic braking device

(EDB). If the

>

and

x

warning

lights turn on at the same time, this

means that there is an EBD system

fault; in this case violent braking

may be accompanied by early rear

wheel locking, with the possibility

of skidding. Drive the car ex-

tremely carefully to the nearest

Authorized Alfa Romeo workshop

to have the system checked.
