ELECTRONIC ALARM
(where provided)
The alarm, provided in addition to all the
remote control functions described pre-
viously is controlled by the receiver set
under the dashboard near 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 or
engine bonnet (perimetral protection);
❒attempt to start the engine (key turned
to MAR);
❒battery cables cutting;
❒abnormal raising/sloping of the vehicle.
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; at the end of these
cycles the system will resume its regular
operation.Anti-raising protection can be cut off by
pressing the corresponding button (see
paragraph “Anti-raising sensor” on the fol-
lowing pages).
IMPORTANT The engine immobiliser
function is guaranteed by the Fiat CODE
system, which is automatically activated
when the key is removed from the igni-
tion device.
HOW TO ACTIVATE
THE ALARM
With the doors, bonnet and load com-
partment shut and ignition key toSTOP
or removed, point the key with remote
control or removed, point the key with
remote control in the direction of the ve-
hicle, then press and release the button
“lock”.
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”.
In this case, switch the alarm off by press-
ing button “door unlock/load compart-
ment unlock”, check that the doors and
bonnet are properly shut, then switch the
alarm on again by pressing button “lock”.The door and bonnet not properly shut
will be excluded from the alarm control.
If the doors, bonnet and load compart-
ment are shut correctly and the warning
“beep” is repeated, the system self-diag-
nostics has detected a system operating
fault. It is therefore necessary to contact
a Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT Operating the central door
locking system with the metal insert of the
key will not activate the alarm.
IMPORTANT The alarm is built in com-
pliance with the law and regulations of the
different destination countries.
HOW TO DEACTIVATE
THE ALARM
Press button “door unlock/load compart-
ment unlock” of the key with remote con-
trol.
The system will react as follows (with the
exception of certain markets):
❒two brief flashes of the direction in-
dicators;
❒two brief “beeps”;
❒door unlocking.
IMPORTANT Operating the central door
opening system with the metal insert of
the key will not activate the alarm.

IGNITION
DEVICE
The key can be turned to 4 different po-
sitions fig. 9:
❒STOP: engine off, key can be re-
moved, steering column locked. Cer-
tain electrical devices (e.g.: sound sys-
tem, central door locking…) can
work.
❒MAR: driving position. All electrical
devices are powered.
❒AVV: engine starting (unstable posi-
tion).
The ignition switch is fitted with an elec-
tronic safety system that, in the event the
engine is not started, turns back the igni-
tion key to STOPbefore repeating the
starting operation.STEERING COLUMN LOCK
Engaging
When the key is at STOP, remove the
key and turn the steering wheel until it
locks.
Disengaging
Rock the steering wheel slightly as you
turn the ignition key to MAR.
If the ignition device is tam-
pered with (e.g.: attempted
theft), have it checked over by a Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible.
WARNING
When getting out of the ve-
hicle, always remove the key
to prevent any occupants from acci-
dentally activating the controls. Re-
member to engage the handbrake
and if the vehicle is parked on uphill
slope to engage the first gear. If the
vehicle is facing downhill, engage the
reverse gear. Never leave unsuper-
vised children in the vehicle.
WARNING
fig. 9F0N0007m
Never remove the ignition
key while the vehicle is mov-
ing. The steering wheel would auto-
matically lock as soon as you try to
turn it. This also applies when the ve-
hicle is being towed.
WARNING
It is absolutely forbidden to
carry out whatever after-
market operation involving steering
system or steering column modifica-
tions (e.g.: installation of anti-theft
device) that could badly affect per-
formance and safety, cause the lapse
of warranty and also result in non-
compliance of the vehicle with ho-
mologation requirements.

Parking manoeuvres howev-
er are always under the dri-
ver’s responsibility that shall always
check the absence of people (spe-
cially children) or animals in the ma-
noeuvre space. This system is just a
help for the driver but she/he shall
never reduce attention during dan-
gerous manoeuvres even if performed
at low speed.
WARNING
GENERAL WARNINGS
❒When parking, take the utmost care
to obstacles that may be set above or
under the sensors.
❒Objects set close to the vehicle, un-
der certain circumstances are not de-
tected and could therefore cause
damages to the vehicle or be dam-
aged.
Below are listed some conditions that
could affect the parking system perfor-
mance:
❒Reduced sensor sensitivity or re-
duced parking system performance
could be due to the presence on the
sensor surface of: ice, snow, mud,
multiple painting.
❒The sensor detects a non-existent ob-
ject (“echo disturbances”) caused by
disturbances of mechanical nature,
e.g.: vehicle washing, rain (extreme
wind conditions), hail.
❒Indications sent by the sensors can al-
so be altered by ultrasound systems
(e.g.: truck pneumatic brakes or pneu-
matic hammers) set nearby the vehi-
cle.
❒Parking system performance could al-
so be affected by sensor position. For
instance, when trimming is changed
(due to wear of shock absorbers, sus-
pensions) or when changing tyres,
loading excessively the vehicle, car-
rying out specific tuning for lowering
the vehicle.
❒Obstacle detection at the top of the
vehicle (specially for vans or chassis
cabs) could not be guaranteed since
the system detects obstacles that can
strike the bottom of the vehicle.
