IMPORTANT The engine immobilizer function is guar-
anteed by the Lancia CODE, which is automatically ac-
tivated when the ignition key is extracted from the starter
device.
TURNING THE ALARM ON
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
button
Á.
Excluding some markets, the system produces an acoustic
warning (beep) and enables door locking.
The switching on of the alarm is preceded by a self-di-
agnosis stage: if a fault is detected, the system emits a new
acoustic signal together with the display of a message (see
“Panel warning lights” chapter).
In this case switch off the alarm by pressing
Ë, check that
all the doors, bonnet and tailgate are closed correctly;
then switch the alarm back on by pressing
Á.
If a door or the bonnet is not properly shut, it will be ex-
cluded from the testing by the alarm system.
If the alarm emits an acoustic signal even when the doors,
bonnet and tailgate are correctly closed, a failure has oc-
curred in system operation. Contact a Lancia Dealership.IMPORTANT Centrally locking the doors using the metal
insert on the key does not activate the alarm.
IMPORTANT The alarm is adapted to meet requirements
in various countries.
TURNING THE ALARM OFF
Press button
Ëon the key with the remote control.
The following operations are performed (excluding some
markets):
❍the direction indicators flash briefly twice;
❍two brief acoustic signals are emitted (“BEEP”);
❍the doors are unlocked.
IMPORTANT Activating the central opening using the
key’s metal insert does not turn the alarm off.

VOLUMETRIC/ANTI-LIFT PROTECTION
To guarantee the correct operation of the protection sys-
tem it is advisable to shut all the side windows and the
sun roof (for versions/markets where provided).
If necessary, the function can be turned off (if, for ex-
ample, you are leaving an animal in the car) by pressing
button A-fig. 14, located in the front courtesy light, be-
fore activating the alarm itself.
When the function is disabled, this is indicated by the
LED on the button flashing for several seconds. Any dis-
abling of the volume sensing/anti-lift protection must be
repeated each time the instrument panel is switched off.
BREAK IN ATTEMPT INDICATION
Any break in attempt is indicated by the
Ywarning light
(or symbol in the display) lighting up, together with
a message shown in the display (see “Instrument panel
warning lights” chapter).DISABLING THE ALARM
To turn the alarm off completely (for example, if the ve-
hicle is not being used for a long time) the vehicle must
be closed by turning the metal insert in the key in the lock
without using the remote control.
IMPORTANT If the battery of the key with the remote
control runs out or the system fails, the alarm can be
switched off by placing the key in the ignition switch and
turning it to MAR.

IGNITION DEVICE
The key can be turned to 3 different positions fig. 15:
❍STOP: engine off, key can be removed, steering
locked. Some electrical devices (e.g. sound system,
central door locking system, etc.) can operate.
❍MAR: driving position. All electrical devices can op-
erate.
❍AVV: engine starting.
The ignition switch is fitted with a safety system that re-
quires the ignition key to be turned back to STOP if the
engine does not start before the starting operation can be
repeated.STEERING LOCK
Engagement
When the key is at STOP, remove the key and turn the
steering wheel until it locks.
Disengagement
Move the steering wheel slightly as you turn the ignition
key to MAR.
IMPORTANT In some parking conditions (e.g.: wheels
turned) the effort required to move the steering wheel and
disengage the steering lock may be increased.
fig. 15L0E0107m
Never remove the key while the car is mov-
ing. The steering wheel would automatically
lock as soon as you try to turn it. This also
applies to when the car is towed. Under no cir-
cumstances should aftermarket operations be car-
ried out involving steering system or steering col-
umn 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 non-compliance
of the car with type-approval requirements.

All adjustments must be carried out only
with the vehicle stationary and engine off.
Head restraints must be adjusted so that the
head, rather than the neck, rests on them. Only in
this case they can protect your head correctly. To
make the best use of the head restraint protection,
adjust the seat back to keep a straight back, with
the head as close as possible to its restraint.

On the roof light, some bulbs light the car interior when
the main beam headlamps or dipped headlamps are on.
IMPORTANT The roof light in fig. 32, for some versions,
may also be in a rear central position (electric sun roof
version).
IMPORTANT Before getting out of the car, make sure
that both switches are in the middle position; when the
doors are closed, the lights switch off preventing a pos-
sible battery discharging. In any case, if the switch is left
in on position, the roof light switches off automatically
15 minutes after the engine switching off.
Courtesy light timing
To make getting in and out the vehicle easier, especially
at nighttime or in poorly lit areas, two timing logics are
available.
Timing while getting into the vehicle
The roof lights switch on according to the following
modes:
❍for around 10 seconds when the front doors are un-
locked;
❍for about 3 minutes when one of the side doors is
opened;
❍for about 10 seconds when the doors are closed.
The timed period is interrupted when the ignition is
turned to “MAR”.Timing while getting out of the vehicle
After removing the key from the ignition, the courtesy
lights switch on according to the following modes:
❍within 2 minutes of the engine being switched off for
a period of about 10 seconds;
❍when one of the side doors is opened for a period
of about 3 minutes;
❍when one of the doors is closed for a period of about
10 seconds;
❍if the fuel cut off switch operates, they remain on for
about 15 minutes, then they switch off automatically.
Door locking switches the lights off immediately (unless
the fuel cut off switch is operating).

FUEL CUT-OFF SYSTEM
This intervenes in the case of an impact causing:
❍cut off of fuel supply with resultant engine shut down;
❍automatic door lock release;
❍activation of all lights inside the car.
When the system has been triggered, the message “Fuel
cut off, see handbook” is displayed.
Carefully check the car for fuel leaks, for instance in the
engine compartment, under the car or near the tank area.
Following a collision, turn the ignition key to STOP
to avoid draining the battery.To restore correct car operation, follow this procedure:
❍turn the ignition key to MAR;
❍activate the right hand indicator;
❍deactivate the right hand indicator;
❍activate the left hand indicator;
❍deactivate the left hand indicator;
❍activate the right hand indicator;
