vehicle starting problems and loss of security
protection.
All of the keys provided with your new vehicle have
been programmed to the vehicle electronics.

cannot be programmed to any other vehicle.
NOTE: When having the Sentry Key Immobilizer
System serviced, bring all vehicle keys with you to an
authorized dealer.

VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM SYSTEM —
IF EQUIPPED
The Vehicle Security Alarm monitors the doors and
decklid for unauthorized entry. It will also activate the
siren and emit a visual flash of the turn signals (front
and rear) for any of the following intrusion cases.
20 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

Operation
The alarm activates in the following cases:
1. Wrongful opening of one of the doors or the decklid(perimeter protection)
2. Wrongful operation of the ignition switch (key turned to MAR [ON/RUN];
3. Cutting of the battery leads
4. Anomalous lifting/tilting of the car
Operation of the alarm is indicated by an acoustic and
visual signal (flashing of the front and rear turn signals
for several seconds). The alarm activation modes may
vary according to the market. There is a maximum
number of acoustic/visual cycles. When this is reached
the system returns to normal operation.
NOTE:
• The engine locking function is guaranteed by the Alfa
Romeo CODE, which is automatically activated
when the key is extracted from the ignition switch.
• The alarm is adapted to meet requirements in various
countries.To Arm The System
With the doors and decklid closed and the ignition key
either turned to STOP (OFF/LOCK) or removed, point
the key towards the vehicle then push and release the
lock button.
The system emits a visual signal and activates door
locking.
A self-diagnosis stage lasting approximately 30 seconds
precedes the activation of the alarm. During the self-
diagnosis, the vehicle security light flashes in the instru-
ment panel at a frequency of about one flash per second.
After the self-diagnosis stage, the vehicle security light
flashes at a lower frequency (approximately one flash
every three seconds).
If, after the alarm is switched on, a second visual signal
emit via the vehicle security light in the instrument
panel, wait about four seconds and switch off the alarm
by pushing the lock button, check that the doors and
decklid are closed correctly and then reactivate the
system by pushing the unlock button.
If the alarm emits a visual signal even when the doors
and decklid are closed correctly, a system malfunction
has occurred: in this case, contact an authorized dealer.

To Disarm The System
Deactivation
Push the unlock button.
The following operations are performed:
•Two brief flashes of the direction indicators.
• Unlocking of the doors.
NOTE:
• If the central door locking system is released using
the metal insert of the key, the alarm is not disabled.
• In the event of accidental activation of the alarm, or
in any case to interrupt the visual signal cycle when
activated, it is possible to push the unlock button or
turn the ignition key to MAR (ON/RUN) for at least
five seconds, after which the system will deactivate.
Disarming
To completely disable the alarm (e.g. during a lengthy
period of vehicle inactivity), lock the vehicle by turning
the metal insert of the key in the door lock. NOTE:
If the batteries of the key fob 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/RUN).
DOORS
Central Door Locking/Unlocking
Locking/Unlocking Doors From The Inside
Push the lock LED indicator button . The button has an
LED that indicates whether the doors are locked or
unlocked.
Pushing the lock LED indicator button again centrally
unlocks all doors and switches off the LED.
Pushing the lock LED indicator button again centrally
locks all the doors. The doors will be locked only if all
the doors are properly shut.
Once the doors have been locked using the remote
control or the key, it will no longer be possible to unlock
them by pushing the lock LED indicator button.
NOTE: In the absence of electrical power supply (blown
fuse, battery disconnected, etc.), it is still possible to
lock the doors manually.

WARNING!
•Do not drill, cut, or tamper with the knee impact
bolsters in any way.
• Do not mount any accessories to the knee impact
bolsters such as alarm lights, stereos, citizen band
radios, etc.
Supplemental Driver Knee Air Bag
This vehicle is equipped with a Supplemental Driver
Knee Air Bag mounted in the instrument panel below
the steering column. The Supplemental Driver Knee Air
Bag provides enhanced protection during a frontal
impact by working together with the seat belts, preten-
sioners, and front air bags.
Supplemental Side Air Bags
Supplemental Door-Integrated Side Air Bag Inflat-
able Curtains (SABICs)
This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Door-
Integrated Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains (SABICs). SABICs may help reduce the risk of head and other
injuries to front seat outboard occupants in certain side
impacts, in addition to the injury reduction potential
provided by the seat belts and body structure.
The SABICs are located in the door trim below the side
windows. The trim covering the SABICs is labeled “SRS
AIRBAG” or “AIRBAG.”
The SABICs deploy upward, covering the side win-
dows. An inflating SABIC pushes the outside edge of
the trim out of the way and covers the window. The
SABICs inflate with enough force to injure occupants if
they are not belted and seated properly, or if items are
positioned in the area where the SABICs inflate. Chil-
dren are at an even greater risk of injury from a
deploying air bag.
The SABICs may help reduce the risk of partial or
complete ejection of vehicle occupants through side
windows in certain side impact events.
