DEAD LOCK DEVICE
(where provided)
This safety device enables to inhibit:
❒door internal handles;
❒locking/unlocking buttons A-B fig. 110;
thus hindering doors opening from inside
the passenger’s compartment in case of at-
tempt to break-into (e.g.: window breaking).
The dead lock device guarantees the best
protection against unwanted access.
Therefore, it should be actuated every
time the vehicle is parked and left unat-
tended.
Once the dead lock device
has been actuated, doors
cannot be opened from the passen-
ger’s compartment in any way what-
soever. For this reason, make sure
there are no person left inside the ve-
hicle. If the battery of the key with
remote control is down, the dead lock
device can be deactivated only by fit-
ting the metal insert of the key in
both front door revolving plugs as de-
scribed previously: in this case the
dead lock device will stay engaged
only on the rear doors.
WARNINGDevice activation
The dead lock device is automatically ac-
tivated on every door when pressing twice
briefly the remote control button
Ø, fig.
107.
Device activation is indicated by 3 flashing
of direction indicators and flashing of the
button led A-fig. 110.
If one of the doors is not perfectly closed,
the dead lock device will not activate, thus
preventing that a person getting into the ve-
hicle from the open door remains blocked
inside the passenger’s compartment when
she/he closes the door.
Device deactivation
The device is deactivated automatically on
every door in the following cases:
❒when opening the driver’s door using
the key without remote control;
❒when unlocking doors using the re-
mote control;
❒turning the ignition key to MAR.
