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.

sulting from normal use of the
vehicle. It is however absolutely neces-
sary to prevent hard and/or prolonged
scratching/scraping caused by clothing

POWER SUPPLY AND
FUEL CUT-OFF SWITCH
The vehicle is fitted with a safety switch that
in the event of a crash comes into opera-
tion by cutting off fuel and turning off the en-
gine as a consequence. When the inertial
switch cuts in, fuel supply is stopped and haz-
ard and sidelights will turn on, for turning
off press button A. An additional safety
switch is also fitted, that in the event of a
crash comes into operation by cutting off the
power supply. These two safety switches
therefore prevent dangerous fuel leaks due
to fuel line cracking and sparks or electric dis-
charges due to damaging or malfunctioning
of the electric components of the vehicle in
the event of a crash.
IMPORTANT After a crash, remember to
remove the key from the ignition device to
prevent battery run-down.
If, after a crash no fuel leaks or damages to
the electric devices (e.g. headlights) are
found and the vehicle can be started again,
reset the fuel cut-off switch and the power
supply cut-off switch (where provided). Fol-
low the instructions given below.
fig. 82F0N0047mfig. 84F0N0048m
If, after a crash, you smell fu-
el or see leaks from the fuel
system, do not reset the switches to
avoid fire risk.
