IMPORTANT
1) Used batteries are harmful to the
environment. You can dispose of
them either in the correct
containers as specified by law or
by taking them to a Fiat
Dealership, which will deal with
their disposal.
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.
Operation
The alarm intervenes in the following
cases:
❒wrongful opening of a door or the
bonnet (perimeter protection);
❒when the ignition system is started
up (ignition key turned to MAR-ON);
❒cutting of the battery leads.
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.
IMPORTANT The engine stop function
is guaranteed by the Fiat CODE, which
is automatically activated when the
ignition key is extracted from the
ignition switch.Activation
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.
IMPORTANT The alarm does not come
on when the central locking is activated
using the metal insert in the key.
13

IMPORTANT The alarm is adapted to
meet requirements in various countries.
Disengagement
Press the door release/load
compartment release button on the key
with remote control.
The following operations are performed
(excluding some markets):
❒direction indicators flash twice;
❒there are two short acoustic signals
(beeps);
❒unlocking of the doors.
IMPORTANT The alarm does not switch
off when the central opening is
activated using the metal insert in the
key.
Break-in attempt
indication
Any break-in attempt is indicated by the
turning on of warning light
on the
instrument panel together with the
message on the display (where
provided, see paragraph “Warning
lights and messages” in the “Knowing
the instrument panel” section).Disabling
To permanently disable the alarm (e.g.
during a long period of inactivity), simply
lock the vehicle by turning the metal
insert of the key with remote control in
the lock.
IMPORTANT If the batteries of the key
with the remote control run out 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 SWITCHThe key can be turned to 3 different
positions fig. 10:
❒STOP: engine off, key extractable,
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.

KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

47) When the ABS intervenes and
you notice the brake pedal
pulsating, keep the pedal pushed
down and don’t be alarmed. This
will help you to stop in the
shortest distance possible,
depending on the road conditions.
48) If the ABS intervenes, it means
you have almost reached the grip
limit between the tyres and the
road surface: slow down to make
sure that you drive in accordance
with the available grip
49) The ABS can’t overrule the
natural laws of physics, and can’t
increase the grip available
according to the condition of the
road.
50) The ABS cannot prevent
accidents, including those due to
excessive speed on corners,
driving on low-grip surfaces or
aquaplaning.
51) The capability of the ABS must
never be tested irresponsibly and
dangerously, in such a way as
to compromise personal safety
and the safety of others.
52) For the correct operation of the
ABS, it is essential that the tyres
are of the same make and type on
all wheels, in perfect condition
and, above all, of the specified
type and dimensions.53) If the space-saver wheel (for
versions/markets, where
provided) is used, the ABS keeps
operating. Always remember
that the space-saver wheel, being
smaller than the original wheel,
provides less grip.
ESC (Electronic
Stability Control)
SYSTEM(for versions/markets, where provided)
The ESC system improves the
directional control and stability of the
vehicle in various driving conditions.
The ESC system corrects the vehicle’s
understeer and oversteer, distributing
the brake force on the appropriate
wheels. The torque supplied by the
engine can also be reduced in order to
maintain control of the vehicle.
The ESC system uses the sensors in
the vehicle to determine the trajectory
required by the driver through steering
and compares it with the real trajectory
of the vehicle. When the real trajectory
deviates from the desired trajectory, the
ESC system intervenes to counter the
car’s understeer or oversteer.
❒Oversteer: occurs when the vehicle is
turning more than it should according
to the angle of the steering wheel.
❒Understeer: occurs when the vehicle
is turning less than it should
according to the angle of the steering
wheel
The ESC system also includes the
following subsystems:
❒Hill Holder

ACCESSORIES
PURCHASED BY THE
OWNERIf after buying the car, you decide to
install electrical accessories that require
a permanent electric supply (alarm,
satellite antitheft system, etc.) or
accessories that in any case burden the
electric supply, contact a Fiat
Dealership, whose qualified personnel,
besides suggesting the most suitable
devices from Lineaccessori Fiat, will
also evaluate the overall electric
consumption, checking whether the
car's electrical system is able to
withstand the load required, or whether
it needs to be integrated with a more
powerful battery.
87)
INSTALLING
ELECTRICAL/
ELECTRONIC DEVICES
Electrical and electronic devices
installed after buying the car in the
context of after-sales service must carry
the following label: fig. 137.Fiat Auto S.p.A. authorises the
installation of transceivers provided that
installation is carried out at a
specialised centre, in a workmanlike
fashion and in compliance with
manufacturer's specifications.
IMPORTANT Traffic police may not
allow the car on the road if devices
have been installed which modify the
features of the car. This may also cause
invalidation of warranty in relation to
faults caused by the change either
directly or indirectly related to it.
Fiat Auto S.p.A. shall not be liable for
damage caused by the installation
of accessories either not supplied or
recommended by Fiat Auto S.p.A.
and/or not installed in compliance with
the instructions provided.RADIO TRANSMITTERS
AND MOBILE PHONES
Radio transmitter equipment (vehicle
mobile phones, CB radios, amateur
radio etc.) cannot be used inside the
car unless a separate aerial is mounted
externally.
IMPORTANT The use of these devices
inside the passenger compartment
(without an external aerial) may cause
the electrical systems to malfunction.
This could compromise the safety
of the car in addition to constituting a
potential hazard for passengers' health.
In addition, transmission and reception
of these devices may be affected by the
shielding effect of the car body.
As far as the use of EC-approved
mobile phones is concerned (GSM,
GPRS, UMTS), follow the usage
instructions provided by the mobile
phone manufacturer.
