LANCIA CODE SYSTEM
This is an electronic engine locking system which in-
creases protection against attempted thefts of the car. It is
automatically activated when the ignition key is removed.
Each key contains an electronic device which modulates
the signal emitted during ignition by an antenna built
into the ignition device. The signal is the “password”, dif-
ferent every time the car is started, through which the
control unit recognises the key and enables starting.
OPERATION
Each time the car is started by turning the ignition key
to MAR, the Lancia CODE system control unit sends an
acknowledgement code to the engine control unit to de-
activate the immobilizer.
The code is sent only if the control unit of the Lancia
CODE system has acknowledged the code received from
the key.
Each time the ignition key is turned to STOP, the Lan-
cia CODE system deactivates the functions of the man-
agement engine control unit.
If the code is not recognised correctly during ignition, the
Ywarning light (or symbol in the display) comes on.
In this case turn the key to STOP and then to MAR; if the
immobilizer function persists, try again with the spare set
of keys. Contact a Lancia Dealership if you still cannot
start the engine.IMPORTANT Each key has its own code which must be
stored by the system control unit. To have new keys pro-
grammed (up to a maximum number of eight keys), con-
tact a Lancia Dealership and be ready to present all the
keys you have in your possession, the CODE card, a per-
sonal identity document and the car ownership docu-
ments. The key codes not presented during the program-
ming procedure will be deleted to ensure that any keys
that are lost or stolen cannot be used to start the engine.
Warning light Y(or symbol in the display)
switching on whilst driving
❍If the warning light Y(or symbol in the display)
switches on, this means that the system is running
a self-diagnosis test (caused, for example, by a volt-
age drop).
❍If the warning light Y(or symbol in the display) re-
mains on, contact a Lancia dealership.
The electronic components inside the key
may be damaged if the key is submitted to
strong shocks.

remote control. Should a new remote control be neces-
sary, contact a Lancia Dealership and be ready to present
the CODE card, a personal identity document and the
car’s ownership documents.
fig. 12L0E0105m
Used batteries are harmful to the environ-
ment. They should be disposed of, as speci-
fied by law, in the special containers pro-
vided, otherwise take them to the Lancia Dealership,
which will deal with their disposal.

(for versions/markets where provided)
This safety device prevents operation of the inside door
handles and of the door locking/unlocking button. We
recommend that you activate this device whenever you
park your car.
Switching the device on
The device is enabled on all the doors by quickly dou-
ble-pressing the
Ábutton on the key.
The engagement of the device is indicated by three flashes
of the direction indicators and the flashing of a LED upon
button A-fig. 13a. The device will not switch on if one
or more doors are not closed correctly.

46KNOWING YOUR CAR
Switching the device off
The device disengages automatically by:
❍opening the driver’s door using the metal insert;
❍pressing the
Ëbutton on the remote control;
❍turning the ignition key to the MAR position
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.
ALARM TRIPPING
The alarm intervenes in the following cases:
❍when a door, the bonnet or the tailgate is opened il-
legally (perimeter protection);
❍when the ignition system is operated (ignition key
turned to MAR);
❍cutting of the battery cables;
❍movement inside the passenger compartment (volu-
metric protection);
❍when the vehicle is lifted or tilted.
Depending on the market, the activation of the alarm
causes the activation of the siren and the direction indi-
cators (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 op-
eration.
The volume sensing and anti-lift protection can be ex-
cluded by adjusting the dedicated control on the front
roof light (see “Volumetric/anti-lift protection”).
Once the safe lock device is engaged it is im-
possible to open the doors from inside the
car. Before engaging the device, check that
there is no one left on board. If the remote control
battery is flat, the device can only be disengaged by
using the metal insert in either of the door locks.

KNOWING YOUR CAR47
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.

48KNOWING YOUR CAR
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.
