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 ACTIVATION
The alarm intervenes in the following instances:
❒when a door, the bonnet or the tailgate is opened
illegally (perimeter protection);
❒ when the ignition system is started up (ignition key
turned to MAR-ON);
❒ cutting of the battery leads;
❒ movement inside the passenger compartment
(volume sensing protection);
❒ anomalous lifting/tilting of the vehicle.
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 volume sensing and anti-lift protection can be
excluded by adjusting the dedicated control on
the front roof light (see “Volume sensing/Anti-lift
protection”). IMPORTANT The engine stop function is guaranteed
by the Fiat CODE which is automatically activated
when the key is extracted from the ignition switch.
TURNING THE ALARM ON
With the doors, bonnet and tailgate closed and the
ignition key either turned to STOP or removed,
point the key with remote control towards the
vehicle and press and release button
.
Excluding some markets, the system produces an
acoustic signal (beep) and enables door locking.
The switching on of the alarm is preceded by a
self-diagnosis stage: if a fault is detected, the system
emits a new acoustic signal together with the display
of a message (see “Warning lights and messages”
chapter).
In this case switch off the alarm by pressing
, check
that all the doors, bonnet and tailgate are closed
correctly; then switch the alarm back on by pressing
the
button.
If a door, the bonnet and the tailgate are not
properly shut, they will be excluded from the check
by the alarm system.
If the alarm emits an acoustic signal even when the
doors, bonnet and tailgate are correctly closed, a
failure has occurred in system operation. Go to a Fiat
Dealership.
IMPORTANT The alarm does not come on when the
central locking is activated using the metal insert in
the key.
