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.

IMPORTANT When the SPORT button is pressed,
the function is activated about 5 seconds later.
IMPORTANT During acceleration, when the SPORT
function is used the steering may shudder which is
typical of a sports setting.
IMPORTANT During parking manoeuvres requiring a
lot of steering, the steering may become harder;
this is normal and is due to the intervention of the
system to protect the electric steering motor from
overheating; so, no intervention is required. When
the car is used again later on, the power steering will
work normally.Acceleration
Sudden acceleration has a very negative effect on fuel
consumption and emissions: accelerate gradually to
contain consumption.
When the SPORT function is used the consumption
figures will be slightly higher than those stated.
WARNING
Under no circumstances should
aftermarket operations involving
steering system or steering column
modifications (e.g.: installation of anti-theft
device) be carried out that could badly affect
performance and safety.This also causes the
warranty to become null and void and results in
vehicle non-compliance with type-approval
requirements.WARNING
Before starting any servicing operation,
stop the engine and remove the key
from the ignition switch to operate the steering
lock, particularly when the wheels do not touch
the ground. If this is not possible (for example
if the key needs to be turned to MAR-ON or
the engine must be running), remove the main
fuse that protects the electric power steering.

When reverse gear is released, the front and rear
sensors remain activated until a speed of around 15
km/h is exceeded to allow the parking manoeuvre to
be completed.
The system can also be activated by pressing the
button
fig. 96 in the central panel: a warning light
in the button comes on when the system is
activated.
Every time the ignition key is turned to MAR-ON
the LED on the button
flashes briefly to indicate
that the system is running a diagnosis. The LED
activation should not be understood as a fault.
The sensors are deactivated by pressing the button
again
fig. 96 or when a speed of 15 km/h is
exceeded: the warning light in the button is off when
the system is not active.
When the sensors are activated, the system starts to
produce acoustic signals from the front or rear buzzers as soon as an obstacle is detected with the
frequency increasing as the obstacle gets closer.
When the obstacle is less than about 30 cm away,
the sound becomes continuous. Depending on
the position of the obstacle (in front or behind) the
sound is produced by the corresponding buzzers
(front or rear). The obstacle closest to the vehicle is
signalled.
The acoustic signal stops immediately if the distance
of the obstacle increases. The sound cycle remains
constant if the distance measured by the centre
sensors remains unchanged, while if this situation
occurs for the side sensors, the signal is interrupted
after about 3 seconds (for example, to prevent
signals in the case of manoeuvres alongside walls).
WARNING
Parking and other dangerous
manoeuvres however are always the
driver ’s responsibility.When making these
manoeuvres, always make sure that no people
(especially children) or animals are present
in your manoeuvring space.The parking sensors
are designed to assist drivers: in any case, you
must always pay the utmost attention during
potentially dangerous manoeuvres, even when
carried out at low speed.
