ELECTRONIC 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.
Operation
The alarm intervenes in the
following cases:
❒wrongful opening of a door or the
bonnet (perimeter protection);
❒when the ignition system is started
up (ignition key turned to MAR-ON);
❒cutting of the battery leads.
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.

IMPORTANT The engine stop
function is guaranteed by the Fiat
CODE, which is automatically
activated when the ignition key is
extracted from the ignition switch.
Activation
With the doors and bonnet closed
and the ignition key either turned to
STOP or removed, point the key
with the remote control towards the
vehicle and press and release the
lock button.
Excluding some markets, the
system produces an acoustic
warning (beep) and enables door
locking.
The switching on of the alarm is
preceded by an self-diagnosis
stage: if a fault is detected, the
system produces another acoustic
signal.
In this case, turn the alarm off by
pressing the "release doors/release
load compartment" button, check
that the doors and bonnet are
properly closed and turn the alarm
back on by pressing the lock
button.If a door or the bonnet is not
properly shut, it will be excluded
from the testing by the alarm
system.
If the alarm produces an acoustic
signal even when the doors and
bonnet are correctly closed, a fault
has occurred in the operation of the
system. Contact 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.
Disengagement
Press the door release/load
compartment release button on the
key with remote control.
The following operations are
performed (excluding some
markets):
❒direction indicators flash twice;
❒there are two short acoustic signals
(beeps);
❒unlocking of the doors.
IMPORTANT The alarm does not
switch off when the central opening
is activated using the metal insert
in the key.
Break-in attempt
indication
Any break-in attempt is indicated
by the turning on of warning light
on the instrument panel
together with the message on the
display (where provided, see
paragraph “Warning lights and
messages” in the “Knowing the
instrument panel” section).
Disabling
To permanently disable the alarm
(e.g. during a long period of
inactivity), simply lock the vehicle by
turning the metal insert of the key
with remote control in the lock.
IMPORTANT If the batteries of the
key with the remote control run

When the doors are locked, the
LED in button A is on and, when
the button is pressed again, all the
doors are centrally unlocked and
the warning light is switched off.
When the doors are unlocked, the
LED is off and pressing the button
again centrally locks all the doors.
The doors will be locked only if
all the doors are properly shut.
Following the locking of the doors
using:
❒remote control
❒door pawl
they cannot be unlocked using the
button A fig. 107 in the dashboard.IMPORTANT With the central
locking on, pulling the opening lever
for one of the front doors causes
the central locking to be switched
off. Individual doors can be
unlocked by pulling the opening
handle of one of the rear doors.
If a power supply is not present
(blown fuse, battery disconnected,
etc.) it is, however, possible to
lock the doors manually.
After exceeding 20 km/h, all the
doors will be locked automatically if
the setup menu function has been
selected (see “Multifunction display”
paragraph in this section).
LOAD COMPARTMENT
BUTTON
The activation of the locking is
signalled by the LED in the button.
The LED comes on in the following
cases:
❒after each door lock command
generated by the button D fig. 108 or
by button
in the dashboard;
❒when the instrument panel is
activated;
❒upon opening of one of the front
doors;
❒when the door is locked at 20 km/h
(if activated from the menu).
The lock is turned off when one of
the load compartment doors is
opened or on a door release
request (load compartment or
centralised) or an unlocking request
from the remote control/door
catch.
DEAD LOCK
(for versions/markets, where
provided)
This safety device inhibits the
operation of:
❒interior handles
locking/unlocking button A fig. 107
107F1A0303
108F1A0116
73
thereby preventing the opening of
the doors from inside the
passenger compartment if there
has been a break-in attempt (e.g. a
window has been broken).

The dead lock device therefore
offers the best possible protection
against break-in attempts. We
recommend engaging it whenever
the vehicle is parked and left
unattended.
34)
Device activation
The dead lock device is
automatically activated on every
door with two short presses on the
button
on the key with remote
control fig. 104.
Device activation is indicated by 3
flashes of the direction indicators
and a flash of the LED on button A
fig. 107 on the dashboard.If one or more of the doors is not
perfectly shut, the dead lock device
will not be activated, thus
preventing a person getting into the
car through the open door and,
on shutting, it, remaining stuck
inside the passenger compartment.
Device deactivation
The system is disabled
automatically on every door in the
following cases:❒if the mechanical key is turned to the
opening position in the driver's door;
❒by unlocking the doors using the
remote control;
❒by turning the ignition key to the
MAR-ON position.

WARNING
34) Once the dead lock system is
engaged it is impossible to open
the doors from inside the vehicle.
Therefore, before engaging the
system check that there is no one
left inside. If the remote control
battery is flat, the system can be
disengaged only by inserting
the key metal insert in either of
the door locks as described
previously: in this case the device
remains active only for the rear
doors.
35) Before leaving the vehicle
parked with sliding doors open,
always check that the latch is
engaged.
36) Do not move the vehicle with
side doors open.37) Before setting off after parking
or before moving the vehicle in
any way, ensure that the
footboard is fully stowed away. As
the movement of the platform is
linked to that of the sliding side
door, thewarning light in the
instrument panel comes on if it is
not fully retracted in the same
way as when the rear doors are
not shut.
38) This spring loaded system has
activation forces that were
designed for optimum comfort.
Accidental knocks or a strong
gust of wind may release the
springs and close the doors
spontaneously.
39) With the doors opened to 180
degrees, no locking system is
effective. Do not use this opening
with the vehicle parked on a
gradient or when it is windy.
40) It is forbidden to drive the
vehicle with the footboard open.
41) Do not use the retracted
footboard for getting up or down
the load compartment.42) Make sure that the footboard is
suitably locked by the provided
retaining systems before, after
and during its use. An incomplete
opening or closing might cause
an improper movement of the
footboard with risks arising for the
operator and external users.
43) The footboard lightly projects
from the vehicle even if retracted;
therefore, when rear parking
sensors are provided, their
operating range is lightly reduced.
IMPORTANT
5) The footboard presence may
reduce the ramp approach angles;
it is therefore recommended, in
case of a very steep ramp, to
be very careful in order not to
damage the footboard.
