SWITCHING OFF THE ALARM
Press the Ëbutton. The following operations are performed (ex-
cluding some versions for specific markets):
❍the direction indicators flash twice;
❍two brief acoustic signals are emitted;
❍the doors are unlocked.
IMPORTANT If the central door locking system is engaged using the
metal insert of the key, the alarm is not disabled.
VOLUME SENSING/ ANTI-TILT PROTECTION
To guarantee the correct operation of the protection, close the side
windows and any sunroof completely (where provided).
To disable the function press button A-fig. 20 before activating
the alarm. The deactivation of the function is indicated by the
LED on button A flashing for several seconds.
Any disabling of the volume sensing/anti-tilt protection must be
repeated each time the instrument panel is switched off.
DISABLING THE ALARM
To permanently disable the alarm (e.g. during a lengthy period
of idleness), lock the vehicle by turning the metal insert of the key
with remote control in the lock.
IMPORTANT If the battery of the key with the remote control goes
flat or the system fails, the alarm can be switched off by placing
the key in the ignition switch and turning it to MAR.

ELECTRIC SUNROOF
(where provided)
The extensively glazed sun roof comprises a moving glass panel
and a sun blind. The glazed panel, when closed, allows light from
the outside to enter and makes it possible to see the outside from
the passenger compartment.
When it opens the front glass panel slides towards the outside of
the roof.
OPERATION
The sun roof is operated by pressing buttons A and B-fig. 53 located
on the trim next to the middle courtesy light.
The sun roof can only be operated with the ignition key in the MAR
position.
Roof opening
Pressing button A-fig. 53 allows two opening modes for the front glass
panel.
Automatic
If button A-fig. 53 is pressed for a while, the front glass panel is raised
from completely closed to the spoiler position. If the button is pressed
again, the panel starts to slide backwards until it is completely open.
After the initial opening command the glass panel can be stopped in
intermediate positions by pressing the button again.
Manual
If button A-fig. 53 is pressed briefly, the front glass panel moves from
the completely closed position and stops in the position where the but-
ton is released. In this case the panel opens by pressing the actual
button.
This function makes it possible to place the front panel in intermedi-
ate positions in relation to those produced through automatic open-
ing.

maximum permitted load.
(**) Loads not to be exceeded. The driver is responsible for arranging the loads in the boot and/or on the roof so that they comply with these limits.
