SWITCHING THE ALARM ON
With the doors and boot closed and
the key removed from the ignition
switch, point the key with the
remote control in the direction of the
car, then press and release the but-
ton B(fig. 14).
With the exception of certain mar-
kets, a beep will be heard, the direc-
tion indicators will light up for about
1 second and the doors will be
locked.
The alarm activation is preceded
by a self-test: if a fault is found, the
system sounds another warning beep
and when the key is turned to MAR,
the symbol Ywill appear on the
instrument panel display, together
with the message “ALARM
FAULT”.
IMPORTANTWhen operating the
central door locking with the metal
insert of the key, the alarm is not
activated.Surveillance
After activating the alarm, the red
deterrent leds A(fig. 15) on the
front door panels will flash to indi-
cate that the surveillance function is
on. The leds will stay on flashing
until the alarm system surveillance
function is on.
IMPORTANTThe electronic
alarm operation is adapted to the
rules in force in the various coun-
tries.Self-test
and door/bonnet/boot control
functions
If, after switching the alarm system
on, a second beep is heard, switch
the system off by pressing button A
(fig. 14), and check that the doors,
bonnet and boot are correctly closed.
Then switch the system on again by
pressing button B.
Otherwise the system will cut out
the door bonnet and boot from the
surveillance if they are not properly
closed.
If the doors, the bonnet and the
boot are properly closed and a sec-
ond beep is heard again, it means
that the system self-test function has
found a fault. Contact a Lancia
Dealership.

SWITCHING THE ALARM OFF
To switch the alarm off, press the
key button A(fig. 14).
The following actions will be car-
ried out by the system (with the
exception of certain markets):
– the direction indicators will flash
twice;
– two beeps will be heard;
– driver’s door or doors unlocking,
depending on the setting selected on
the CONNECT menu.
IMPORTANTWhen operating the
central door unlocking with the
metal insert of the key, the alarm is
not deactivated.VOLUMETRIC PROTECTION
Do not leave passengers or pets in
the parked car and completely close
the windows and the sunroof to
ensure the correct operation of the
volumetric sensors. Furthermore,
make sure that the doors, bonnet
and boot/tailgate are properly
closed.
To deactivate the volumetric
protection, press button A(fig. 16)
on the front ceiling light: when the
function is off, the button warning
light will flash for about 3 seconds
and then goes out.
Protection cut out stays on until
activating the central door opening
again.
IMPORTANTVolumetric protec-
tion shall be deactivated after about
1 minute from turning the key to
STOP. To deactivate the volumetric
protection after this period, turn the
key to MARand then to STOP
again.ANTI-LIFTING SENSOR
The anti-lifting sensor detects vari-
ations in slant to signal lifting or
partial lifting (e.g. to remove a
wheel) of the car.
The sensor can detect minimal
variations in cat trim along both the
longitudinal axis and the transversal
axis. Variations in trim lower than
0.5°/min. (such as, for example, a
slow deflating tyre) are not take into
account.
To switch the anti-lifting protec-
tion off, press button B(fig. 16) on
the front ceiling light: when the
function is off, the button warning
light will flash for about 3 seconds
and then goes out.To ensure correct opera-
tion of the volumetric pro-
tection system, before acti-
vating the alarm, check that win-
dows and sunroof (where pro-
vided) are perfectly closed.

42
IMPORTANTThe anti-lifting sen-
sor shall be deactivated after about 1
minute from turning the key to
STOP. To deactivate the anti-lifting
sensor after this period, turn the key
to MARand then to STOPagain.
Sensor cut out stays on until acti-
vating the central door opening
again.
WHAT TRIGGERS THE ALARM
OFF
The alarm will be triggered off in
the following conditions:
– if a door, the bonnet or the
boot/tailgate is opened;
– if the battery or electric cables
are disconnected or cut;
– if there is an intrusion in the pas-
senger compartment, e.g. a broken
window (volumetric protection);
– if an attempt is made to start the
engine (key at MAR);
– if an attempt has been made to
lift the car.According to the markets, the
alarm can operate the siren and the
direction indicators (for about 25
seconds). The intervention modality
and the number of cycles can vary
according to the markets.
A maximum number of acoustic/
visual cycles is foreseen in all cases.
After the alarm cycle, the system
returns to its normal surveillance
function.
INDICATIONS OF ATTEMPTS
TO BREAK IN
The alarm system indicates the
attempts to break in stored by the
control unit, through the lighting up
on the instrument panel display of
symbol Ytogether with the mes-
sage “BREAK IN ATTEMPT”.
DEACTIVATING THE ALARM
To completely deactivate the elec-
tronic alarm (for example, if the car
is to be stored for a long period of
time), simply lock the car turning
the key in the lock.FUNCTIONS THAT CAN BE
DEACTIVATED
OR MODIFIED
The functions that can be directly
deactivated:
– volumetric protection, which can
be disconnected by means of button

RECOGNITION
SYSTEM (KEYLESS
SYSTEM)
The Keyless System is a recognition
system controlled by device A
(fig. 17), called CID (Customer
Identification Device), which per-
forms the same functions as the key
provided with the remote control
supplied with the car. It does not
require any manual action since it
identifies the person that holds the
device as the owner of the car.
Therefore, it is enough for the dri-
ver to bring the CID device with
himself so that the car can recognize
him, allowing him to get into the carand start the engine without having
to use the key.
In any case, the CID device is
equipped with three buttons per-
forming the same functions as the
ordinary radio-frequency remote
control that enable the driver to
remotely operate on the car.
Moreover, it includes the key for the
mechanical emergency actuation of
the boot and door locks (in case the
CID device battery or the car battery
are run down).
The buttons perform the following
functions (fig. 18):
– button Bfor remote actuation of
central door opening and the simul-
taneous switching off of the elec-
tronic alarm– button Cfor remote actuation of
central door locking, boot locking
and the simultaneous switching on
of the electronic alarm
– button Dfor remote tailgate
opening
– led E(where required) to indi-
cate code sending to the electronic
alarm system receiver.
To remove emergency keyF
(fig. 19), take off cover G(fig. 20)
by levering at point H.

45
The emergency key actuates:
– the front door locks
– the boot lock
– the passenger’s airbag deactiva-
tion switch
– the rear side bag deactivation
switch. The CID device check is carried out
when the button inside the door
handle or on the boot is pressed: if
the Keyless System recognizes the
CID device, it disconnects the alarm
system and actuates the boot or door
opening mechanism.
Identification occurs only if the
CID owner is standing about 1 metre
far from the door that has to be
opened or from the boot.
IMPORTANTThe CID device
operation depends on several fac-
tors, such as the possible interfer-
ence with electromagnetic waves
emitted by external sources, the bat-
tery charge and the presence of
metal objects near the CID device
and the car. In any case, operations
can be carried out by means of the
emergency key included in the CID
device.To switch off the front passenger’s
airbag and the rear side bags, use
the emergency key included in the
CID device.
The CID owner must take the fol-
lowing precautions to be able to
have all the system functions avail-
able:
– For unlocking doors or boot, the
CID device must be outside the car
at a maximum distance of approx.
one meter from the handle involved.
– To actuate the ignition switch
functions, the CID device must be
inside the car.
– If the CID device is taken away
from the car (e.g. it is kept inside a
bag or in a pocket) the doors cannot
be locked and the car started any
more.
– If central locking has been acti-
vated from inside the car by pressing
the button on the driver’s door
panel, it will only be possible to get
into the car by pressing the button
on the CID device.

IMPORTANTDo not remove the
battery from the CID device until
when its replacement is possible.
Where system is unable to identify
the CID device (e.g. the CID battery
is flat) the car can be accessed by
using the emergency key existing
inside the CID itself.
When switched on, the alarm sys-
tem will be actuated when the door
is opened and the siren will start
sounding but will be switched off by
turning the starting knob to MAR.
Car start-up will moreover be possi-
ble by positioning the CID into the
special seat A(fig. 21), located in
front of the gear lever. Under these
conditions, such compartment is the
only position capable of acknowledg-
ing the presence of a CID device
inside the passenger compartment.
fig. 21
L0A0182b
It is advised to always
carry about with you the
CID device, avoiding to
leave it unguarded inside the
passenger compartment, because
in this case any children remain-
ing unguarded inside the car or
unauthorised people could start
the engine.
Do not expose the CID
device to electromagnetic
fields or high-intensity
radio frequency sources, to avoid
operation anomalies. Heavy
shocks or exposure to direct sun-
light could damage the electronic
components of the device.
IMPORTANTDo not lay the CID
device outside the car on the sunroof,
to avoid a fake identification of the
CID itself as if inside the car. It is rec-
ommend to carry about with you the
CID device (e.g. into a pocket). “GARAGE” POSITION
(EMERGENCY ACTUATION)
During emergency or servicing
operations, the CID device shall be
housed in the dashboard central
oddment compartment A(fig. 21) in
front of the gear lever.
The electronic component in the
CID device is of the “passive” type
and does not require dedicated
power supply; it can therefore oper-
ate in “garage” position even if the
CID device battery is run down.

49
– CID device inside the car
– clutch pedal depressed (brake
pedal on versions with automatic
transmission).
IMPORTANTIf the car battery is
run down, the steering column can-
not be unlocked and the car cannot
be started. In this case, an auxiliary
battery must be connected, in order
to unlock the steering column and
start the engine (see paragraph
“Jump starting”); then, contact a
Lancia Dealershipto have the bat-
tery recharged.DOOR UNLOCKING
TO ACCESS CAR
To perform door unlocking, push on
button A(fig. 23front doors -
fig. 24rear doors) in the inside part
of handles. The Keyless System iden-
tifies the CID device, deactivates the
electronic alarm system and operates
the door/s unlocking mechanism.
Leds on door panels will be lit to a
green colour to notice unlocking.
It is possible to set unlocking of dri-
ver’s door only or the contemporary
unlocking of all the doors, by the set-
tings on CONNECT (see the following
paragraph “System Settings”). If “dri-
ver’s door unlocking” is set, it will be
possible to access the passenger com-
partment only through this door; to
unlock the other doors push on but-
ton B(fig. 18) on CID device.
fig. 23
L0A0334b
IMPORTANTIf car or CID device
batteries are flat, to unlock the door
lock it is necessary to operate on the
revolving plug with the emergency
key F (fig. 19).
IMPORTANTIf the door lock has
been closed with the emergency key F
(fig. 19), Keyless System functions
will temporarily disabled. These func-
tions will automatically be restored at
the next unlocking by pushing button
B(fig. 18) on the CID device or after
the unlocking with the emergency key
F(fig. 19).

AUTOCLOSE FUNCTION
(AUTOMATIC LOCKING
OF DOORS, BOOT,
AND FUEL FILLER FLAP)
The Keyless System automatically
locks the boot and door locks when
the owner goes away with the CID
device at least 4 metres far from the
car. Boot and door locking is con-
firmed by the flashing of direction
indicators.
This function can be switched off
by acting on the CONNECT settings.
The Autoclose function is not actu-
ated in the following cases:
– If, when the driver moves away
from the car, one or several doors are
not closed correctly, automatic lock-
ing will not be actuated and the car
doors and boot will remain open: the
owner is warned of this by the failed
blinking of direction indicators.
– If at the time of moving away,
other CID devices are identified as
existing in the car passenger com-
partment or in the luggage compart-
ment, or if the knob is not set to the
STOPposition (instrument panel
turned on or engine started). LOCKING THE DOOR AND
LEAVING THE CAR (with the
identification system disabled)
To lock doors when system func-
tions are disabled, proceed as fol-
lows:
– Close all the doors and the lug-
gage compartment bonnet
– Push on button C(fig. 18) on
CID device to engage central locking
of doors, of luggage compartment
and of electronic alarm.
Leds on door panels will lit for
approx. 3 seconds in red colour and
then they will start flashing with
deterring function.
If one or more doors are not cor-
rectly closed, leds will start flashing
for 3 seconds instead of being lit
with a fixed light. After flashing for
3 seconds, leds will anyhow be
turned out, except for that on the
driver’s door, which will start flash-
ing with a deterring function. TAILGATE OPENING
If the boot shall be opened from
outside, with the doors locked, it is
enough to get near the boot with the
CID device and press the boot but-
ton: the boot lock will release and
the boot will be opened while the
doors remain locked. If the alarm
system is on, the boot protection,
volumetric protection and anti-lift-
ing protection will be temporarily
excluded.
When the boot is reclosed, it will
have to be locked by pressing the
door locking button on the CID
device, which will resume the alarm
protection, too.
IMPORTANTBefore closing the
luggage compartment bonnet, make
sure you always have with yourself
the CID device.
