Activation
With the doors and tailgate closed and
the ignition key either turned to STOP
or removed, point the key with remote
control towards the car then press and
release the
button.
For versions/markets, where provided,
the system emits an acoustic signal and
activates door locking.
A self-diagnosis stage lasting
approximately 30 seconds precedes
the activation of the alarm: during this,
the LED flashes on the dashboard at a
frequency of about one flash per
second.
After the self-diagnosis stage, the LED
flashes at a lower frequency (one flash
every 3 seconds approx.).
If, after the alarm is switched on, a
second acoustic signal is emitted
and/or a visual signal via the LED on the
dashboard, wait about 4 seconds and
switch off the alarm by pressing the
button, check that the doors and
tailgate are closed correctly and then
reactivate the system by pressing the
button.
If the alarm emits an acoustic signal
even when the doors and tailgate are
closed correctly, a system malfunction
has occurred: in this case, contact a
dedicated Alfa Romeo Dealership.
Deactivation
Press thebutton.
The following operations are performed
(for versions/markets, where provided):
two brief flashes of the direction
indicators;
unlocking of the doors.
IMPORTANT If the central door locking
system is released using the metal
insert of the key, the alarm is not
disabled.
IMPORTANT In the event of accidental
activation of the alarm, or in any case to
interrupt the acoustic and visual signal
cycle when activated, it is possible to
press the
button or turn the ignition
key to MAR-ON for at least 5 seconds,
after which the system will deactivate.
Disabling
To completely disable the alarm (e.g.
during a lengthy period of car inactivity),
lock the car by turning the metal insert
of the key in the door lock.
IMPORTANT If the batteries of the key
with remote control run out or there is a
fault in the system, the alarm can be
switched off by inserting the key in the
ignition switch and turning it to
MAR-ON.
Volumetric/anti-lift
protection
To ensure the correct operation of the
protection, completely close the side
windows.
To disable the volumetric protection,
turn the ignition key from STOP to
MAR-ON twice in a row, then activate
the alarm within 15 seconds, pressing
the
button on the remote control.
When the function is deactivated, this is
indicated by the LED on the dashboard
flashing for several seconds.
To disable the anti-lift protection as well,
the ignition key must be turned from
STOP to MAR-ON three times in a row,
followed by activating the alarm within
15 seconds, pressing the
button on
the remote control.
When the function is deactivated, this is
indicated by the LED on the dashboard
flashing for several seconds.
Any disabling of the volumetric/anti-lift
protection must be repeated each time
the instrument panel is switched off.
