SAFE LOCK DEVICE
(where provided)
This safety device enables to inhibit:
❒door internal handles;
❒buttonfig. 13for locking/unlocking the
doors, placed on the central panel;
thus hindering doors opening from inside
the passenger’s compartment in case of
attempt to break-into (e.g. window break-
ing).
The safe lock device guarantees the best
protection against unwanted access.
Therefore, it should be actuated every
time the car is parked and left unattend-
ed.
fig. 13F0Q0641m
Device activation
The device is automatically activated on
every door by pressing twice button
Áon
the key with remote control.
Device activation is signalled by three
flashes of the direction indicators and
flashing of the door-lock button led on the
dashboard (see table on next page).
If one of the doors is not perfectly closed,
the dead lock device will not activate, thus
preventing that a person getting into the
car from the open door remains blocked
inside the passenger’s compartment when
she/he closes the door.
Device deactivation
The device is deactivated automatically on
every door in the following cases:
❒when unlocking the doors;
❒when turning the ignition key to MAR.
Once the safe lock device
has been actuated, doors
cannot be opened from inside the car
in any way whatsoever. For this rea-
son, make sure there are no persons
left inside the car.
WARNING
If the battery of the key with
remote control is down, the
safe lock device can only be activat-
ed through the metal insert of the key
in the revolving plugs of the doors as
described previously: in this case the
safe lock device is active only on the
rear doors.

Activation
Move the right-hand stalk downwards by
one position.
The activation of the rain sensor is sig-
nalled by a control acquisition “stroke”.
IMPORTANT Keep clean the glass in the
sensor area.
Turning the knurled ring F-fig. 49it is
possible to increase the sensitivity of the
rain sensor, obtaining a quicker change
from stationary (no wiping) when the
windscreen is dry, to first continuous
speed (continuous slow).
The increase of the sensitivity of the rain
sensor is signalled by a control and acqui-
sition “stroke”.
Operating the windscreen washer with
the rain sensor activated the normal wash-
ing cycle is performed at the end of which
the rain sensor resumes its normal auto-
matic function.Do not activate the rain sen-
sor when washing the car in
an automatic washing station.
In the event of ice on the
windscreen, make sure to have
disconnected the device.
Make sure to have discon-
nected the device when
cleaning the windscreen.
WARNING
Deactivation
Turn the ignition key to STOP.
At next engine starting (key at MAR), the
sensor will not be reactivated even is the
stalk is on B-fig. 49. In this event, to ac-
tivate the rain sensor, you have to move
the stalk to Aor Cand then again to B.
When the rain sensor is again activated in
this way, at least one windscreen wiper
stroke occurs, even if the windscreen is
dry.

PARKING SENSORS
(where provided)
Parking sensors inform the driver about
the presence of obstacles behind the car
(versions fitted with 4 rear sensors) or be-
hind and in front of the car (versions fit-
ted with 4 rear sensors and 4 front sen-
sors).
This system is therefore an aid for the dri-
ver when parking the car since it detects
obstacles out of the driver’s sight range.
The driver is warned of the presence and
distance from the obstacle by an inter-
mittent buzzer (the sound of the buzzer
becomes more frequent as the reduction
of distance between the car and the ob-
stacle decreases).
SENSORS
To detect obstacles the system used 4
sensors located on the front bumper
(where provided) fig. 105and 4 sensors
located on the rear bumper fig. 106.
ACTIVATION
Version with 4 sensors
In the version with 4 rear sensors, the sys-
tem turns on automatically when reverse
is engaged.

Version with 8 sensors
In the version with 4 rear sensors and 4
front sensors, the system activates when
reverse is engaged or when the button is
pressed tfig. 107.
When reverse is released, the rear sen-
sors and front sensors remain active un-
til a speed of approximately 15 km/h is ex-
ceeded to allow the parking manoeuvre
to be completed.The system may be activated by pressing
the button tfig. 107located on the
centre panel: a warning light on the but-
ton comes on when the system is active.
The sensors are deactivated by pressing
the tfig. 107again or exceeding a
speed of 15 km/h: the warning light on the
button is off when the system is inactive.
When the sensors are activated, the sys-
tem begins to emit acoustic signals from
the front or rear indicators as soon as an
obstacle is detected. The frequency aris-
es as soon as the car approaches the ob-
stacle.
