IGNITION DEVICE

SWITCH

(fig. 8)

The key can be turned to one of four po-

sitions:

– STOP: engine switched off, key can be

removed, engine inhibitor engaged, steer-

ing lock engaged, services excluded apart

from those supplied directly (e.g. hazard

warning lights).

– MAR: drive position. The engine lock

is deactivated and all electrical devices are

powered.

When leaving the car al-

ways remove the key from

the ignition to prevent any

occupants of the car from acciden-

tally activating the controls. Nev-

er leave children in the car unac-

companied. Remember to engage

the handbrake and, if the car is

parked on an uphill slope, to en-

gage the first gear. If the car is fac-

ing downhill, engage reverse gear.

If the ignition device is

tampered with (for exam-

ple an attempted theft)

have it checked over by Alfa

Romeo Authorised Services before

travelling again.

IMPORTANT Do not leave the key in

this position when the engine is stopped.

– AVV: unstable position for starting the

engine.

IMPORTANT If the engine fails to start

move the key back to STOP and repeat.

The ignition switch has a safety device

which prevents passage to AVV when the

engine is running.

– PARK: engine switched off, key can

be removed, engine lock engaged, steer-

ing lock engaged, sidelights switched on au-

tomatically.

IMPORTANT To turn the key to the

PARK position, button (A) on the switch

must be pressed first.
