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).

,
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.
IMPORTANT The alarm is adapted to meet
requirements in various countries.

TRIP COMPUTERGeneral information
The Trip computer is used to display information
on car operation when the key is turned to
MAR-ON. Two separate trips, called “Trip A” and
“Trip B”, are provided to monitor the entire
mission (journey) in a reciprocally independent
manner.
Both functions can be reset (reset - start of a new
journey).
“Trip A” is used to display the figures relating to:
❒Range
❒Distance covered
❒Average consumption
❒Instantaneous consumption
❒Average speed
❒Trip time (driving time).
“Trip B” is used to display the figures relating to:
❒Distance travelled B
❒Average consumption B
❒Average speed B
❒Trip time B (driving time).
NoteThe “Trip B” function may be disabled (see
“Activating Trip B”). The “Range” and “Instant
consumption" parameters cannot be reset.Values displayed
Range

be travelled with the amount of fuel present in
thetank.“----”will appear on the display in the
following cases:
❒range value lower than 50 km (or 30 mi)
❒car parked with engine running for an extended
period.
IMPORTANT The range value variation can be
affected by several factors: driving style, type of
route (motorway, urban, mountain roads, etc.),
conditions of use (load, tyre pressures, etc.). Trip
planning must therefore take the above into
account.
Distance covered
Shows the distance covered since the start of the
new journey.
Average consumption
Shows the approximate average fuel consumption
since the start of the new journey.
Instantaneous consumption
This indicates the fuel consumption. The value is
constantly updated. The display will show “----”if
the car is parked with the engine running.
