WARNING
If the key with remote control battery is
flat , the system can be engaged by
using the metal insert in the door catch as
described previously: in this case, the device only
remains active for the rear doors.
Device activation
The system is automatically enabled on all the doors
by pressing button
twice on the key with remote
control.
Device activation is indicated by 3 flashes of the
direction indicators and a flash of the LED on the
door locking button on the dashboard.
If one or more of the doors is not closed correctly,
the dead lock device will not activate, thus
preventing a person from getting stuck inside the
passenger compartment by entering the car through,
and then closing, the open door.
WARNING
Once the safe lock system is engaged, it
is impossible to open the doors from
inside the car.Therefore, before getting out of
the car check that there is no one left on board.
Device deactivation
The system is disabled automatically on every door
when:
❒unlocking the doors;
❒by turning the ignition key to the MAR-ON
position.

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.

❒AQS function disabled.
With the climate control system compressor
switched off, air cannot be introduced into the
passenger compartment that has a lower

symbol in the display will flash.The deactivation of the climate control system
compressor is memorised even after the engine has
stopped. To reactivate the climate control system
compressor, press the
or AUTO button again:
if you press AUTO, the other manual settings will be
cancelled.
IMPORTANT In order to preserve the battery
charge, the electronic climate control management
permits a higher ventilation speed than minimum
only if the engine is running at a speed greater than
750 rpm. When the speed drops below this
threshold – possible when setting off, for example –
the ventilation speed is automatically reduced to
minimum.
AIR DISTRIBUTION SELECTION
Press one or more of these buttons
/
/
to
manually select one of the seven possible air
distribution settings for the passenger compartment:
Air flow to the windscreen and front side
window diffusers to demist/defrost them.Air flow to the front and rear footwell diffusers.
This air distribution allows the passenger
compartment to be warmed up quickly.
Air flow distribution between front and
rear diffusers, centre/side dashboard
diffusers, rear diffuser and windscreen and
front side window demisting/defrosting
diffusers.
Air flow distribution to centre/side dashboard
diffusers (passenger's body).

is on.
The heater switches off automatically when the
required comfort conditions are achieved.
IMPORTANT The heater will not turn on if the
battery voltage is too low.

Activation
Move the right stalk down by one click.
The activation of the sensor is signalled by a "stroke"
to show that the command has been acquired.
IMPORTANT Keep the glass in the sensor area clean.
By turning ring nut F fig. 37 is it possible to increase
the sensitivity of the rain sensor to obtain a more
rapid variation between wiper still (no stroke) when
the windscreen is dry, to wiper at first continuous
speed (slow continuous operation).
The increasing of the rain sensor sensitivity is also
signalled by a stroke of the wipers.
If the windscreen washer is used with the rain sensor
activated, the normal washing cycle is performed,
after which the rain sensor resumes its normal
automatic operation.
Deactivation
Turn the ignition key to STOP.
At the next start-up (key at MAR-ON), the sensor
will not be reactivated even if the stalk is at B fig. 37.
To activate the sensor, move the stalk to position
A or C and then back to position B.
Rain sensor activation will be indicated by at least
one wiper “stroke” even if the windscreen is dry.
Do not activate the rain sensor when
washing the car in an automatic car wash.
Make sure the device is switched off if
there is ice on the windscreen.
WARNING
Make sure the device is switched off
whenever the windscreen is being
cleaned.
REAR WINDOW WASHER/WIPER
It can be operated only with the ignition key turned
to MAR-ON. The function stops when the stalk is
released.
Turning the stalk ring nut A fig. 40 from position
to position
will operate the rear window wiper
as follows:
❒in intermittent mode when the rear window wiper
is not operating;
❒in synchronous mode (at half the speed of the
windscreen wiper) when the windscreen wiper
is operating;
❒in continuous mode with reverse gear engaged and
the control active.
With the windscreen wiper on and reverse gear
engaged the rear window wiper is activated in
continuous mode. Pushing the stalk towards the
dashboard (unstable position) will activate the rear
window washer jet.

HEADLIGHTSLIGHT BEAM DIRECTION
The correct aiming of the headlights is important for
the comfort and safety of not only the driver but
all other road users. This is also covered by a specific
rule of the highway code.
The headlights must be correctly aligned to
guarantee the best visibility conditions for all drivers
while travelling with headlights on.
Contact a Fiat Dealership to have the lights checked
and adjusted, if necessary.
IMPORTANT When the gas discharge (Xenon)
headlamps (for versions/markets, where provided)
are switched on, normally parabolas and light beam
move vertically for about 2 seconds until headlamp
alignment has stabilised.
HEADLIGHT ALIGNMENT CORRECTOR
This device works with the ignition key in the
MAR-ON position and the dipped beam headlights
on.
The car will tilt backwards when it is loaded, raising
the light beam. The beams must therefore be
realigned in this case.
Adjusting headlights alignment
For adjusting, press buttons
and
fig. 88 on
the dashboard.Press button
to increase the light beam of one
position.
Press buttonto decrease the light beam of one
position.
The display shows the position while adjusting.
Correct positions depending on the load
Position 0
one or two occupants in the front seats.
Position 1
five people
Position 2
five people with a load in the luggage
compartment
Position 3
driver + maximum permitted load stowed
in the luggage compartment.
IMPORTANT Check the headlight alignment each
time the weight of the load transported changes.
