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).

ANTI-LIFT PROTECTION
The anti-lift protection system consists in a sensor
which detects any change in vehicle tilting with a view
to identifying any possible vehicle lifting, even partial
(e.g. when a tyre is removed).
The sensor also detects minor changes in the vehicle
angle both along the longitudinal and transverse axis.
Disabling the anti-lift protection
The anti-lift protection is disabled (for instance when
the vehicle needs to be towed with the alarm engaged)
by pressing button A-fig. 9 located on the control plate.
The protection remains enabled until the central door
opening system is engaged again. IMPORTANT If the central door locking system is
engaged using the metal insert of the key, the alarm is
not enabled.
IMPORTANT The alarm is adapted to meet
requirements in various countries.
TURNING THE ALARM OFF
Press the door release/load compartment release
button on the key with remote control.
The following operations are performed (excluding
some markets):
❒the direction indicators turn on shortly twice;
❒two short beeps are produced by the warning buzzer;
❒the doors are unlocked.
IMPORTANT If the central door locking system is
released using the metal insert of the key, the alarm is
not disabled.

BREAK IN ATTEMPT INDICATION
Any break in attempt is indicated by the turning on of
warning light
Yon the instrument panel together with
the message on the multifunction display (where
provided), (see section “Warning lights and messages”).
DISABLING THE ALARM
To permanently disable the alarm (e.g. during a lengthy
period of idleness), simply 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-ON.

IGNITION DEVICE
The key can be turned to 4 different positions fig. 10:
❒STOP: engine off, key can be extracted, steering
locked. Some electrical devices (e.g. sound system,
central door locking system, etc.) can operate;
❒MAR-ON: driving position. All electrical devices are
enabled;
❒AVV: engine starting (unstable position).
The ignition switch is fitted with an electronic safety
system that requires the ignition key to be turned back
to STOP if the engine will not start, before the starting
operation can be repeated.

INDEX
Never extract the key while the vehicle
is moving. The steering wheel would
automatically lock as soon as you try to turn it.
This is always the case, even when the vehicle is
being towed.
WARNING
It is absolutely forbidden to carry out
any after-sales operation involving
steering system or steering column
modifications (e.g. installing an anti-theft
device) that could badly affect performance and
safety, invalidate the warranty and also result in
the vehicle failing to comply with regulations.
WARNING
If the ignition device is tampered with
(e.g.: attempted theft), have it checked
over by a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
WARNING
Always remove the key from the vehicle
when leaving it in order to prevent
accidental engagement of the control.
Remember to engage the handbrake. Engage
first gear if the vehicle is parked uphill or
reverse gear if the vehicle is parked downhill.
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle.
WARNING
STEERING LOCK
Engagement
When the key is at STOP, remove the key and turn the
steering wheel until it locks.
Disengagement
Move the steering wheel slightly as you turn the ignition
key to MAR-ON.

REV COUNTER fig. 14
The rev counter shows the engine rpm.
IMPORTANT The electronic injection control system
gradually shuts off the flow of fuel when the engine is
“over-revving” resulting in a gradual loss of engine
power.
When the engine is idling, the rev counter may indicate
a gradual or sudden increase of the speed.
This behaviour is standard as it takes place during the
activation of the climate control system or the fan.
It should not be considered as a fault. In such cases,
a slight increase in engine idle speed helps to safeguard
the battery charge level.INSTRUMENTS
The instrument background colour and type may vary
according to the versions.
