Once the dead lock device
has been actuated, doors

turning on of warning light
Y(if pro-
vided) on the instrument panel with the

pletely (for instance during prolonged in-
activity of the car) simply lock the car us-
ing the emergency locking.
IMPORTANT To cut-out the alarm if re-
mote control batteries are down or the
system is failing, fit the key into the igni-
tion switch and turn it to ON.
DEAD LOCK DEVICE
(where provided)
This safety device enables to inhibit:
❒door internal handles;
❒button Aand Bfor locking/unlocking
the doors fig. 15;
thus hindering doors opening from inside
the passenger’s compartment in case of
attempt to break-into (e.g. window break-
ing).
The dead lock device guarantees the best
protection against unwanted access.
Therefore, it should be actuated every
time the car is parked and left unattend-
ed.

the driver’s side door as described pre-
viously: in this case the dead lock de-
vice is active only on the rear doors.

“Check vehicle protection system”, repeat
the operation rocking the steering wheel
to facilitate steering unlocking. Displaying
of this message does not impair steering
column lock operation.
IMPORTANT When the vehicle is mo-
ving, the electronic key must remain in the

ring lock is disabled during vehicle hand-
ling (e.g., when the vehicle is towed).
