5)Under no circumstances should
aftermarket operations be carried out
involving steering system or steering
column modifications (e.g. installation of
anti-theft device). This could negatively
affect performance and safety, invalidate
the warranty, cause serious safety
problems and also result in vehicle
non-compliance with type-approval
requirements.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.
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 signal (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.

compartment release button on the key
with remote control.
