LANCIA CODE SYSTEM
This is an electronic engine locking system which in-
creases protection against attempted thefts of the car. It is
automatically activated when the ignition key is removed.
Each key contains an electronic device which modulates
the signal emitted during ignition by an antenna built
into the ignition device. The signal is the “password”, dif-
ferent every time the car is started, through which the
control unit recognises the key and enables starting.
OPERATION
Each time the car is started by turning the ignition key
to MAR, the Lancia CODE system control unit sends an
acknowledgement code to the engine control unit to de-
activate the immobilizer.
The code is sent only if the control unit of the Lancia
CODE system has acknowledged the code received from
the key.
Each time the ignition key is turned to STOP, the Lan-
cia CODE system deactivates the functions of the man-
agement engine control unit.
If the code is not recognised correctly during ignition, the
Ywarning light (or symbol in the display) comes on.
In this case turn the key to STOP and then to MAR; if the
immobilizer function persists, try again with the spare set
of keys. Contact a Lancia Dealership if you still cannot
start the engine.IMPORTANT Each key has its own code which must be
stored by the system control unit. To have new keys pro-
grammed (up to a maximum number of eight keys), con-
tact a Lancia Dealership and be ready to present all the
keys you have in your possession, the CODE card, a per-
sonal identity document and the car ownership docu-
ments. The key codes not presented during the program-
ming procedure will be deleted to ensure that any keys
that are lost or stolen cannot be used to start the engine.
Warning light Y(or symbol in the display)
switching on whilst driving
❍If the warning light Y(or symbol in the display)
switches on, this means that the system is running
a self-diagnosis test (caused, for example, by a volt-
age drop).
❍If the warning light Y(or symbol in the display) re-
mains on, contact a Lancia dealership.
The electronic components inside the key
may be damaged if the key is submitted to
strong shocks.

(for versions/markets where provided)

recommend that you activate this device whenever you
park your car.
Switching the device on

ble-pressing the
Ábutton on the key.
The engagement of the device is indicated by three flashes
of the direction indicators and the flashing of a LED upon
button A-fig. 13a. The device will not switch on if one
or more doors are not closed correctly.

Switching the device off
The device disengages automatically by:
❍opening the driver’s door using the metal insert;
❍pressing the
Ëbutton on the remote control;
❍turning the ignition key to the MAR position
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 a door, the bonnet or the tailgate is opened il-
legally (perimeter protection);
❍when the ignition system is operated (ignition key
turned to MAR);
❍cutting of the battery cables;
❍movement inside the passenger compartment (volu-
metric protection);
❍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 indi-
cators (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 op-
eration.
The volume sensing and anti-lift protection can be ex-
cluded by adjusting the dedicated control on the front
roof light (see “Volumetric/anti-lift protection”).
Once the safe lock device is engaged it is im-
possible to open the doors from inside the
car. Before engaging the device, check that
there is no one left on board. If the remote control
battery is flat, the device can only be disengaged by
using the metal insert in either of the door locks.
