temperatures during operation. Do not park on
grass, dry leaves, pine needles or other
flammable material: fire hazard.
RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The vehicle is fitted with a system that allows
continuous diagnosis of the emission-related
components in order to help protect the
environment.ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES
If, after buying the vehicle, you decide to add
electrical accessories (with the risk of gradually
draining the battery), visit a Fiat Dealership. They
can calculate the overall electrical requirement
and check that the vehicle’s electrical system can
support the required load.
CODE card
Keep it in a safe place, not in the vehicle.
Make sure you have the electronic code written
on the CODE card with you at all times
.

Used batteries are harmful to the
environment. They should be disposed of,
as specified by law, in the special
containers provided, otherwise take them to the
Fiat Dealership, which will deal with their
disposal.

IMPORTANT The engine lock function is guaranteed by
the Fiat CODE, which is automatically activated when
the ignition key is extracted from the starter device.
TURNING THE ALARM ON
With the doors and bonnet closed and the ignition key
either turned to STOP or removed, point the key with
the remote control towards the vehicle and press and
release the lock button.
Excluding some markets, the system produces an
acoustic warning (beep) and enables door locking.
The switching on of the alarm is preceded by an self-
diagnosis stage: if a fault is detected, the system
produces another acoustic signal.
In this case, turn the alarm off by pressing the “release
doors/release load compartment” button, check that the
doors and bonnet are properly closed and turn the
alarm back on by pressing the lock button.
If a door or the bonnet is not properly shut, it will be
excluded from the testing by the alarm system.
If the alarm produces an acoustic signal even when the
doors and bonnet are correctly closed, a fault has
occurred in the operation of the system. Contact a Fiat
Dealership.ELECTRONIC ALARM
(for versions/markets where provided)
The alarm, in addition to all the remote control
functions described previously, is controlled by the
receiver located under the dashboard near the fuse box.
ALARM TRIPPING
The alarm intervenes in the following cases:
❒when one of the doors or bonnet is opened
illegitimately (perimeter protection);
❒when the ignition system is started up (ignition key
rotated to MAR-ON);
❒when the battery cables are cut;
❒when the vehicle is lifted or tilted.
Depending on the market, the activation of the alarm
causes the activation of the siren and the direction
indicators (for about 26 seconds). Alarm tripping and
the number of cycles depend on the sales market.
There is a maximum number of acoustic/visual cycles.
When this is reached the system returns to normal
operation.
The antilift protection may be turned off by means of
the appropriate button (see “Antilift protection”
paragraph overleaf).

control goes flat or the system fails, the alarm can be
