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

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

The switching on of the alarm is
preceded by an self-diagnosis
stage: if a fault is detected, the
system produces another acoustic
signal.

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.
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
