AUTOCLOSE FUNCTION
(AUTOMATIC LOCKING
WITH KEYLESS SYSTEM
RECOGNITION SYSTEM)
On versions equipped with Keyless
System, the “Autoclose” function
can be actuated/deactivated through
the CONNECT settings. This func-
tion makes it possible to automati-
cally lock the boot and doors when
the CID device is taken away from
the car.
When leaving the car, if one or
more doors are not closed correctly,
the car will remain open and a fur-
ther beep will sound to indicate that
the locks have not been locked.
The “Autoclose” functions actuates
neither the alarm system nor the
door deadlock device (refer to the
contents of the relevant paragraph).
In any case, these functions can be
actuated by means of the remote
control.LOCK RELEASE IN CASE OF
ACCIDENT
In case of collision with actuation
of the inertia switch, the door locks
are automatically released to allows
rescuers to get access to the passen-
ger compartment.In any case, door open-
ing from the outside
depends on the door con-
ditions after the collision:
deformed doors cannot very often
be opened even if the lock is
released. In such a case, try to
open the other doors.
INITIALISING THE DOOR
LOCKING CONTROL UNIT
Whenever the battery is electrically
connected again or it is reloaded
after being completely flat or after
replacing one of the protection fuses,
to restore the correct operation of
the door locking, of air conditioning
and of ESP system, it is necessary to
perform the initialisation operations
contained in the paragraph “If bat-
tery is to be disconnected” in the
chapter “In an emergency”. The external mechanical
connections are active
only when the doors are
unlocked.
In the event that the driver has
actuated central locking from the
inside and, after a collision, the
inertia switch has not actuated
the automatic door unlocking
function due to the loss of or
damage to the battery, access to
the passenger compartment will
not be possible from the outside.

This function can be activated with
the CONNECT (from the main
SETUP screen) or with the remote
control.
The system works with this mode on
if the following conditions are present
– outside temperature lower than 20
°C
– coolant temperature lower than 50
°C
– ignition key at STOPor removed
– car battery charged
– fuel not in reserve.
When this mode is on, the heater is
deactivated when one of the following
conditions occur:
– end of planned working time
– OFF signal from the remote con-
trol
– manual shutdown by the user
through CONNECT– ignition key at MAR
– partial battery rundown
– fuel in reserve
– malfunction detected by the heater
control unit.
Timed heater activation/
deactivation through CONNECT
Timed heater activation and deacti-
vation can be set through the CON-
NECT. Select and confirm “Heater”
on the main SETUP screen to display
the parked-car heater settings.
Settings available are the following:
– Operate now
– Timer 1
– Timer 2.
To activate/deactivate the required
function, select and confirm it with
the CONNECT right knob.“Operate now”
The option “Operate now” enables
to warm the passenger compartment
with the engine stopped and warm
and the ignition key to MAR, using
the engine coolant, heater coolant cir-
culation pump, automatic air distrib-
ution control (if not set manually) and
closing air recirculation. The timer
cannot be programmed when this
function is on.
To guarantee the required comfort,
this function shall be mainly activated
when coolant is hot enough. When
coolant temperature is lower than 50
°C the control unit starts the heater,
and when temperature is over 70 °C,
the control unit turns the heater off
and lets only the coolant circulation
pump keep on working.

– stationary: with the “programma-
ble heater” mode controlled by the
timer, the system conditions are con-
trolled by CONNECT.
The timer is automatically deacti-
vated if:
– the “programmable heater” mode
function is stopped by CONNECT if,
at the timer start, the “programmable
heater” mode is activated with the re-
mote control
– if the user manually activates the
heater during the timer operation
– if the timer is activated within 3
minutes after the previous heater
shutdown
– if the user manually deactivates
the timer– if the fuel level in the tank is low
when the timer is activated. This con-
dition is indicated with a message
coming from the system and the user
must confirm activation. If the user
does not confirm activation, the timer
is deactivated. The fuel level is indi-
cated by the CONNECT; if this infor-
mation is not available, it is taken into
consideration the last record before
stopping the engine
– if the timer is activated when the
heater operated by the remote control
is activated.
IMPORTANTIf the heater is in
prompt operating mode, the timer is
automatically stopped at the moment
of activation. Parameters set with the
timer are stored in the memory. If the
timer has been deactivated or
stopped, it should be manually reac-
tivated by the user.HEATER ACTIVATION/
DEACTIVATION WITH THE
REMOTE CONTROL (fig. 123)
Activation/deactivation of the heater
can be operated with remote control
A.
The activation signal is issued by the
remote control with a range of around
600 meters and picked up by a spe-
cific antenna placed on the car, then
it is transmitted to the supplementary
heater receiver and sent to CON-
NECT.
IMPORTANTThe maximum re-
mote control range is reached on open
land, while it is reduced in the pres-
ence of buildings.

This control is accepted by CON-
NECT only if:
– outside temperature lower than 20
°C
– coolant temperature lower than 50
°C
– the ignition key is at STOPor re-
moved
– car battery charged
– sufficient fuel level
– the timer is deactivated.
Switching the heater on
To switch the heater on, press the
remote control button ONfor 1 or 2
seconds, while keeping the antenna in
vertical position; the positive or un-
successful activation is indicated by
the remote control red led Bin the fol-
lowing way:
– the led turns on for about 2 sec-
onds = the signal has been correctly
received and the heater has been ac-
tivated– the led flashes for about 2 seconds
= the signal has not been received.
In the latter case you are advised to
move before trying to activate it by
pressing again the ONbutton.
After the confirmation activation,
the led Bwill flash every 2 seconds for
the whole operation cycle duration.
IMPORTANTIf led Bturns on with
green colour, press twice both remote
control buttons ONand OFFwithin 1
second to set the red colour.
Activation length
When pressing the remote control
button ONthe last recorded activa-
tion length is always activated.
To see the recorded length, press at
the same time for three consecutive
times within 1 second, the remote
control buttons ONand OFF, count
the number of flashes of led Bthen
compare them to those shown in the
table below, including also the first
flash appearing the third time you
press the buttons. Default activation length is 30 min-
utes but it can be changed through
the following procedure:
– press at the same time for three
consecutive times within 1 second, the
remote control buttons ONand OFF
– count the number of flashes of led
Bincluding also the first flash ap-
pearing the third time you press but-
tons ONand OFF
– press OFFto set the length suc-
cessive to the set one (press OFFfor
several times to set the required
length in sequence)
– wait for about 10 seconds for timer
storing.

168
- the led comes on for about 2 sec-
onds = the signal has been received
correctly and the heater has been de-
activated
- the led flashes for about 2 seconds
= the signal has not been received.
In the latter case you are advised to
move before trying to deactivate it by
pressing again the OFFbutton.Checking and replacing the
batteries
To check the battery charge, press
ONor OFF: if after about 5 seconds
led Bcomes on with orange colour it
means that the batteries are nearly
down and that they shall be replaced.
The batteries must be replaced with
new ones of the same type, available
at the usual sellers.
Replacing the batteries
Keep the ONand OFFbuttons
pressed for about 10 seconds, until led
Bturns off, to reset the 30 minutes
standard operation length.
Switching the heater off
To turn the heater off, press the re-
mote control button OFFfor 1 or 2
seconds, while keeping the antenna in
vertical position; the positive or un-
successful deactivation is indicate by
the remote control red led Bin the fol-
lowing way:Used batteries pollute the
environment. Dispose of
them in the special con-
tainers as specified by current leg-
islation. Keep batteries away from
open flames and high tempera-
tures. Keep away from children.
