KEY WITHOUT REMOTE CONTROL
Key (A) (delivered in one copy only) is the one to be used normally for:
❒starting up
❒locking/unlocking the doors
❒locking/unlocking the fuel cap
❒deactivating the passenger’s airbag.
Key (B), with built-in remote control, performs the same functions as key
(A) for cars fitted with door remote control and/or electronic alarm.
KEY WITH REMOTE CONTROL
The remote control built into the ignition key has a button (C) and a led
(D) (where required); the button activates the remote control and the
led flashes to show that the transmitter is sending the code to the
receiver. The remote control operates at radio-frequency.
Ministerial homologation
In accordance with the regulations in force in each country as concerns
radio-frequency, the following shall be pointed out: the specific
homologation numbers for each country are indicated in the last pages of
this handbook and for markets requiring transmitter code marking, the
homologation number is printed directly on the key grip.

ELECTRONIC ALARM
The electronic alarm has the following functions:
❒central door locking/unlocking remote control;
❒perimetral surveillance, which picks up opened doors, bonnet and
tailgate;
❒volumetric surveillance, which picks up the movement of any intruders
inside the passenger compartment.
OPERATION
The electronic alarm of Fiat Multipla is controlled by the receiver located
in the dashboard under the front right panelling. It is activated by the
radio-frequency remote control built into the ignition key.
It will only work when the ignition key is removed from position STOP
or PARK.
The electronic alarm control unit also includes the self-powered alarm
siren; the siren may be deactivated.
To switch the electronic alarm on: press briefly the remote control
button (C). You should hear a “beep” and the direction indicators switch
on for about 3 seconds (in countries where legislation permits it). The
warning led (F) inside the car will flash as long as the car alarm is on.
To switch the electronic alarm off: press the remote control button
again. You will hear two “beeps” and the direction indicators will flash
twice (in countries where legislation permits it).

WHEN THE ALARM IS TRIGGERED
When the system is on, the electronic alarm comes
into action in the following cases:
❒One of the doors, the bonnet or the tailgate are
opened.
❒The battery is disconnected or the electronic alarm
power supply cables are cut.
❒Something moves in the passenger compartment
(volumetric surveillance).
❒The key is turned to MAR.
When the alarm is triggered, the siren sounds for
about 26 seconds (for a maximum of 3 cycles at 6
second intervals if the cause of the alarm persists) and
the direction indicators will flash for about 5 minutes
(only in countries where legislation permits it).
Once the alarm situation has been resolved, the alarm
system continues its surveillance. To cut off the alarm
before this, press the remote control button.
HOW TO DEACTIVATE THE ALARM
To switch the alarm off, press the remote control
button on the key.
In countries where admitted by law regulations, the
system is preset for an emergency procedure to be
carried out when the alarm does not turn off (due to
flat remote control battery or system fault):❒open the door after unlocking the lock with the key,
❒fit the key into the ignition switch,
❒turn the key to MAR.
To reactivate the alarm after the emergency
procedure, turn the key to STOP and remove it. Then,
press twice the remote control button: first press will
re-align the system (this because the last operation for
excluding the alarm was performed using the key and
not the remote control), the second press will
reactivate the alarm.
When using the key, if the remote control battery is
flat the key led will flash once.
Flat battery condition is also indicated by the
dashboard led glowing steadily for 2 minutes each time
the alarm is deactivated.
In this event the key battery should be replaced by a
new one of the equivalent type on sale c/o normal
retailers.
If it is not possible to switch on the alarm with a new
remote control battery, contact Fiat Dealership to
have the system checked.
IMPORTANT If the car is to remain inactive for a
prolonged length of time (over three weeks) and
security conditions permitting, it is advisable to
operate central locking turning the key in the door
lock to avoid engaging the alarm and draining the
battery.

IMPORTANT If one of the doors is not perfectly closed, or there is a
system fault, the central locking device will not work and after 8 or 9
attempts in rapid succession the device will cut out for about 30 seconds.
During these 30 seconds the doors can be locked or unlocked manually,
without involving the electric system. After 30 seconds the central
system is ready to receive commands again. If the reason for the
malfunction has been removed, the device will start to work properly
again. If not it will cut out once more.
IMPORTANT If one or both rear doors are open and the remote
control (or the key in the door lock) is operated, the central door
locking system will lock all the doors lowering the door sill buttons.
When closing the open doors they will lock.
CHILD SAFETY DEVICE
