ENTERING THE
SECRET CODE
Entry of the secret code is required:
a - when you get the car from your Deal-
ership
b - after every battery disconnection (e.g.:
servicing operations carried out at Alfa
Romeo Authorized Services).
For example, if the secret code on your
Code card is 4613, follow this procedure:
– turn the sound system on pressing but-
ton "ON" (23)
– the display will show "CODE" (enter
the secret code)
– press once button "4" (18). The dis-
play will show "4 - - -"
– press once button "6" (16). The dis-
play will show "4 6 - -"
– press once button "1" (21). The dis-
play will show "4 6 1 -"
– press once button "3" (19). The dis-
play will show "4 6 1 3"
– sound system will start working after
about 1 second.
WARNING If a wrong code is entered,
sound system will go back to waiting con-
dition for new code entry (the display will
show "CODE" again).
Sound system turning off when entering
the code is considered as an incorrect code
entry.
WARNING After three consecutive
wrong entries the display will show four
dashes "- - - -" and the sound system will
lock out for one hour at least. Since the
sound system is fitted with automatic turn-
ing off system (see paragraph "Sound sys-
tem turning on" on next page), to unlock
it, the following conditions shall be kept at
the same time for one hour:
1) Ignition key to MAR.
2) Sound system on.
After one hour in these conditions the
sound system will return to the waiting con-
dition for code entry (the display will show
again the message "CODE").
Time during which the sound system stays
in antitheft mode is only calculated if the
sound system is on. Should sound system
be turned off when in antitheft mode,
elapsed time is set to zero and when turn-
ing the sound system on again time count-
ing will start from zero (you will have to wait
again for one hour).
ANTITHEFT LED
To show that the sound system is fitted
with antitheft protection system, a red led
(7) will flash when both engine and sound
system are off.
