ALARM
(where provided)
The alarm function is provided in addition
to all remote control functions previous-
ly described and it is controlled by the re-
ceiver located under the dashboard, next
to the fuse box.
WHEN THE ALARM IS
TRIGGERED
The alarm comes into action in the fol-
lowing cases:
❒ unlawful opening of one of the doors,
bonnet or boot (perimetral protec-
tion);
❒attempt to start the engine (turning the
ignition key to MAR);
❒ battery cable cutting;
❒ presence of moving bodies in the pas-
senger’s compartment (volumetric pro-
tection);
❒ abnormal raising/sloping of the car. Depending on the markets, the cutting in
of the alarm causes operation of the siren
and direction indicators (for about 26 sec-
onds). The ways of operating and the num-
ber of cycles may vary depending on the
markets.
A maximum number of sound/sight cycles
is however envisaged.
Volumetric and anti-raising protections
can be cut off by operating the front ceil-
ing light controls (see paragraphs “Volu-
metric protection sensors” and “Anti-rais-
ing sensor” on the following pages).
IMPORTANT The engine immobiliser
function is guaranteed by the Fiat CODE
system, which is automatically activated
when the ignition key is removed.HOW TO ACTIVATE THE
ALARM
With the doors, bonnet and boot shut and
the ignition key in the STOPposition or
with the key removed, point the key with
remote control in the direction of the car,
then press and release the button
Á.
With the exception of certain markets,
the system sounds a “beep” and the doors
are locked.
Engagement of the alarm is preceded by
a self-diagnostic test. If a fault is detected
the system sounds a further warning
“beep” and the display shows the relevant
message (see section “Warning lights and
messages”).
In this case, switch the alarm system off by
pressing button
Ë, check that the doors,
bonnet and tailgate are properly shut, then
switch the alarm on again by pressing but-
ton
Á.
Otherwise, the door, bonnet or tailgate
that is not shut properly will be excluded
from the alarm system control.
