IMPORTANT The engine inhibitor function is guaranteed
by the Lancia CODE, which is automatically activated
when the ignition key is extracted from the starter de-
vice.
SWITCHING ON THE ALARM
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
button
Á.
Excluding some versions for specific markets, the system
produces an acoustic warning (beep) and enables door
locking.
Before the alarm is enabled, a self-diagnosis test is run:
if a fault is detected, the system emits another sound warn-
ing and a message is shown on the display, (see “Instru-
ment panel warning lights”).
In this case switch off the alarm by pressing
Ë, check that
all the doors, bonnet and tailgate are closed correctly; then
switch the alarm back on by pressing
Á.
If a door or the bonnet is not correctly closed, it will be ex-
cluded from the testing by the alarm system.
If the alarm produces an acoustic signal even when the
doors, bonnet and tailgate are correctly closed, a failure
has occurred in system operation. Contact a Lancia Deal-
ership.IMPORTANT Centrally locking the doors using the met-
al insert on the key does not activate the alarm.
IMPORTANT Originally, the alarm is configured in com-
pliance with the regulations existing in the different coun-
tries.
SWITCHING OFF THE ALARM
Press button
Ëon the key with the remote control.
The following operations are performed (excluding some
versions for specific markets):
❍the direction indicators flash twice;
❍two brief acoustic signals are emitted (“BEEP”);
❍the doors are unlocked.
IMPORTANT If the central door locking system is re-
leased using the metal insert of the key, the alarm is not
disabled.

IGNITION SWITCH
The key can be turned to 3 different positions fig. 15:
❍STOP: the engine is off, the key can be extracted, the
steering is locked. Some electrical devices (e.g. car ra-
dio, central door locking system, etc.) are enabled
❍MAR: driving position. All electrical devices are en-
abled
❍AVV: engine start-up.
The ignition switch is fitted with an electronic safety sys-
tem that requires the ignition key to be turned back to
STOP if the engine will not start, before the starting op-
eration can be repeated.STEERING COLUMN 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.
IMPORTANT In some parking conditions (e.g.: wheels
turned) the effort required to move the steering wheel and
disengage the steering lock may be increased.
fig. 15L0E0107m
Never extract the key while the vehicle is
moving. The steering wheel would lock as
soon as the steering wheel is turned. This al-
so applies to when the car is towed. Under no cir-
cumstances should after-market operations be car-
ried out involving steering system or steering col-
umn modifications (e.g.: installation of anti-theft
device). This could negatively affect performance
and safety, invalidate the warranty and also re-
sult in vehicle non-compliance with type-approval
requirements.

Environmental lights are provided as part of the cour-
tesy light; these illuminate the vehicle when the dipped
beam headlights or side lights are switched on.
IMPORTANT The courtesy light in fig. 32, for some ver-
sions, is in central rear position (electric sun roof version).
IMPORTANT Before getting out of the car, make sure that
both switches are in the central position: lights off with
doors closed in order to avoid draining the battery. In any
case, if the switch is left inadvertently in the On position,
the lights will turn off automatically 15 minutes after turn-
ing the engine off.
Courtesy light timing
To facilitate getting in/out of the car at night or with poor
lighting, 2 different timed switching on modes have been
provided.
Light timing when getting into the car
The courtesy lights will turn on as follows:
❍for about 10 seconds when the front doors are un-
locked;
❍for about 3 minutes when one of the side doors is
opened;
❍for about 10 seconds when the doors are closed.
Timing is interrupted when the ignition key is turned to
MAR.Light timing when getting out of the car
After removing the key from the ignition switch, the cour-
tesy lights will turn on as follows:
❍within 2 minutes of turning the engine off, for about
10 seconds;
❍for about 3 minutes when one of the side doors is
opened;
❍for about 10 seconds when one of the doors is closed.
❍in the event of the fuel cut-off system cutting in, the
lights remain on for approximately 15 minutes, after
which they go out automatically.
The lights go out immediately when the doors are locked
(unless the fuel cut-off system has cut in.).
