SWITCHING THE ALARM ON
With the doors and boot closed and
the key removed from the ignition
switch, point the key with the
remote control in the direction of the
car, then press and release the but-
ton B(fig. 14).
With the exception of certain mar-
kets, a beep will be heard, the direc-
tion indicators will light up for about
1 second and the doors will be
locked.
The alarm activation is preceded
by a self-test: if a fault is found, the
system sounds another warning beep
and when the key is turned to MAR,
the symbol Ywill appear on the
instrument panel display, together
with the message “ALARM
FAULT”.
IMPORTANTWhen operating the
central door locking with the metal
insert of the key, the alarm is not
activated.Surveillance
After activating the alarm, the red
deterrent leds A(fig. 15) on the
front door panels will flash to indi-
cate that the surveillance function is
on. The leds will stay on flashing
until the alarm system surveillance
function is on.
IMPORTANTThe electronic
alarm operation is adapted to the
rules in force in the various coun-
tries.Self-test
and door/bonnet/boot control
functions
If, after switching the alarm system
on, a second beep is heard, switch
the system off by pressing button A
(fig. 14), and check that the doors,
bonnet and boot are correctly closed.
Then switch the system on again by
pressing button B.
Otherwise the system will cut out
the door bonnet and boot from the
surveillance if they are not properly
closed.
If the doors, the bonnet and the
boot are properly closed and a sec-
ond beep is heard again, it means
that the system self-test function has
found a fault. Contact a Lancia
Dealership.

SWITCHING THE ALARM OFF
To switch the alarm off, press the
key button A(fig. 14).
The following actions will be car-
ried out by the system (with the
exception of certain markets):
– the direction indicators will flash
twice;
– two beeps will be heard;
– driver’s door or doors unlocking,
depending on the setting selected on
the CONNECT menu.
IMPORTANTWhen operating the
central door unlocking with the
metal insert of the key, the alarm is
not deactivated.VOLUMETRIC PROTECTION
Do not leave passengers or pets in
the parked car and completely close
the windows and the sunroof to
ensure the correct operation of the
volumetric sensors. Furthermore,
make sure that the doors, bonnet
and boot/tailgate are properly
closed.
To deactivate the volumetric
protection, press button A(fig. 16)
on the front ceiling light: when the
function is off, the button warning
light will flash for about 3 seconds
and then goes out.
Protection cut out stays on until
activating the central door opening
again.
IMPORTANTVolumetric protec-
tion shall be deactivated after about
1 minute from turning the key to
STOP. To deactivate the volumetric
protection after this period, turn the
key to MARand then to STOP
again.ANTI-LIFTING SENSOR
The anti-lifting sensor detects vari-
ations in slant to signal lifting or
partial lifting (e.g. to remove a
wheel) of the car.
The sensor can detect minimal
variations in cat trim along both the
longitudinal axis and the transversal
axis. Variations in trim lower than
0.5°/min. (such as, for example, a
slow deflating tyre) are not take into
account.
To switch the anti-lifting protec-
tion off, press button B(fig. 16) on
the front ceiling light: when the
function is off, the button warning
light will flash for about 3 seconds
and then goes out.To ensure correct opera-
tion of the volumetric pro-
tection system, before acti-
vating the alarm, check that win-
dows and sunroof (where pro-
vided) are perfectly closed.

42
IMPORTANTThe anti-lifting sen-
sor shall be deactivated after about 1
minute from turning the key to
STOP. To deactivate the anti-lifting
sensor after this period, turn the key
to MARand then to STOPagain.
Sensor cut out stays on until acti-
vating the central door opening
again.
WHAT TRIGGERS THE ALARM
OFF
The alarm will be triggered off in
the following conditions:
– if a door, the bonnet or the
boot/tailgate is opened;
– if the battery or electric cables
are disconnected or cut;
– if there is an intrusion in the pas-
senger compartment, e.g. a broken
window (volumetric protection);
– if an attempt is made to start the
engine (key at MAR);
– if an attempt has been made to
lift the car.According to the markets, the
alarm can operate the siren and the
direction indicators (for about 25
seconds). The intervention modality
and the number of cycles can vary
according to the markets.
A maximum number of acoustic/
visual cycles is foreseen in all cases.
After the alarm cycle, the system
returns to its normal surveillance
function.
INDICATIONS OF ATTEMPTS
TO BREAK IN
The alarm system indicates the
attempts to break in stored by the
control unit, through the lighting up
on the instrument panel display of
symbol Ytogether with the mes-
sage “BREAK IN ATTEMPT”.
DEACTIVATING THE ALARM
To completely deactivate the elec-
tronic alarm (for example, if the car
is to be stored for a long period of
time), simply lock the car turning
the key in the lock.FUNCTIONS THAT CAN BE
DEACTIVATED
OR MODIFIED
The functions that can be directly
deactivated:
– volumetric protection, which can
be disconnected by means of button
A(fig. 16) set on the front ceiling
light: when the function is off, the
button warning light flashes for
about 3 seconds and then goes out;
– anti-lifting protection, which can
be disconnected by means of button
B(fig. 16) set on the front ceiling
light: when the function is off, the
button warning light flashes for
about 3 seconds and then goes out.

43
The functions that can be modified
through the CONNECT system
menu are:
– boot lock release by actuating
central door opening (*);
– central door and tailgate locking
when the car speed exceeds 20
km/h, without actuation of the
deadlock device.
(*) When this function is discon-
nected to lock the boot lock when
the boot is closed, even if the doors
were closed, the remote control or
the key must be used, as it is nor-
mally the case with the doors; thus,
the boot can be opened with the
handle in the event that the key is
left inside the lock.MINISTERIAL HOMOLOGATION
In the respect of the legislation in
force in each country in the matter
of radio-frequency devices, please
note that the homologation number
is printed on the component for
markets where this is required.
IMPORTANTThe code marking
may also be printed on the transmit-
ter and/or the receiver for ver-
sions/markets where this is required.EASY ENTRY/EXIT
SYSTEM
Versions provided with electric
steering wheel adjustment may also
incorporate the Easy Entry/Exit sys-
tem, which allows the driver to get
into and out of the car with
improved ease.
In the cars provided with this sys-
tem, the steering wheel lifts and the
seat goes back before the driver gets
out of the car.
The function is actuated when the
door is opened but only if the igni-
tion key is at STOPor has been
removed.
When the driver opens the door to
get into the car, both the seat and
the steering wheel have already gone
back. The seat and the steering
wheel will return to their normal dri-
ving position after the driver has sat,
closed the door and turned the key
to MAR.

44
RECOGNITION
SYSTEM (KEYLESS
SYSTEM)
The Keyless System is a recognition
system controlled by device A
(fig. 17), called CID (Customer
Identification Device), which per-
forms the same functions as the key
provided with the remote control
supplied with the car. It does not
require any manual action since it
identifies the person that holds the
device as the owner of the car.
Therefore, it is enough for the dri-
ver to bring the CID device with
himself so that the car can recognize
him, allowing him to get into the carand start the engine without having
to use the key.
In any case, the CID device is
equipped with three buttons per-
forming the same functions as the
ordinary radio-frequency remote
control that enable the driver to
remotely operate on the car.
Moreover, it includes the key for the
mechanical emergency actuation of
the boot and door locks (in case the
CID device battery or the car battery
are run down).
The buttons perform the following
functions (fig. 18):
– button Bfor remote actuation of
central door opening and the simul-
taneous switching off of the elec-
tronic alarm– button Cfor remote actuation of
central door locking, boot locking
and the simultaneous switching on
of the electronic alarm
– button Dfor remote tailgate
opening
– led E(where required) to indi-
cate code sending to the electronic
alarm system receiver.
To remove emergency keyF
(fig. 19), take off cover G(fig. 20)
by levering at point H.

45
The emergency key actuates:
– the front door locks
– the boot lock
– the passenger’s airbag deactiva-
tion switch
– the rear side bag deactivation
switch. The CID device check is carried out
when the button inside the door
handle or on the boot is pressed: if
the Keyless System recognizes the
CID device, it disconnects the alarm
system and actuates the boot or door
opening mechanism.
Identification occurs only if the
CID owner is standing about 1 metre
far from the door that has to be
opened or from the boot.
IMPORTANTThe CID device
operation depends on several fac-
tors, such as the possible interfer-
ence with electromagnetic waves
emitted by external sources, the bat-
tery charge and the presence of
metal objects near the CID device
and the car. In any case, operations
can be carried out by means of the
emergency key included in the CID
device.To switch off the front passenger’s
airbag and the rear side bags, use
the emergency key included in the
CID device.
The CID owner must take the fol-
lowing precautions to be able to
have all the system functions avail-
able:
– For unlocking doors or boot, the
CID device must be outside the car
at a maximum distance of approx.
one meter from the handle involved.
– To actuate the ignition switch
functions, the CID device must be
inside the car.
– If the CID device is taken away
from the car (e.g. it is kept inside a
bag or in a pocket) the doors cannot
be locked and the car started any
more.
– If central locking has been acti-
vated from inside the car by pressing
the button on the driver’s door
panel, it will only be possible to get
into the car by pressing the button
on the CID device.

AUTOCLOSE FUNCTION
(AUTOMATIC LOCKING
OF DOORS, BOOT,
AND FUEL FILLER FLAP)
The Keyless System automatically
locks the boot and door locks when
the owner goes away with the CID
device at least 4 metres far from the
car. Boot and door locking is con-
firmed by the flashing of direction
indicators.
This function can be switched off
by acting on the CONNECT settings.
The Autoclose function is not actu-
ated in the following cases:
– If, when the driver moves away
from the car, one or several doors are
not closed correctly, automatic lock-
ing will not be actuated and the car
doors and boot will remain open: the
owner is warned of this by the failed
blinking of direction indicators.
– If at the time of moving away,
other CID devices are identified as
existing in the car passenger com-
partment or in the luggage compart-
ment, or if the knob is not set to the
STOPposition (instrument panel
turned on or engine started). LOCKING THE DOOR AND
LEAVING THE CAR (with the
identification system disabled)
To lock doors when system func-
tions are disabled, proceed as fol-
lows:
– Close all the doors and the lug-
gage compartment bonnet
– Push on button C(fig. 18) on
CID device to engage central locking
of doors, of luggage compartment
and of electronic alarm.
Leds on door panels will lit for
approx. 3 seconds in red colour and
then they will start flashing with
deterring function.
If one or more doors are not cor-
rectly closed, leds will start flashing
for 3 seconds instead of being lit
with a fixed light. After flashing for
3 seconds, leds will anyhow be
turned out, except for that on the
driver’s door, which will start flash-
ing with a deterring function. TAILGATE OPENING
If the boot shall be opened from
outside, with the doors locked, it is
enough to get near the boot with the
CID device and press the boot but-
ton: the boot lock will release and
the boot will be opened while the
doors remain locked. If the alarm
system is on, the boot protection,
volumetric protection and anti-lift-
ing protection will be temporarily
excluded.
When the boot is reclosed, it will
have to be locked by pressing the
door locking button on the CID
device, which will resume the alarm
protection, too.
IMPORTANTBefore closing the
luggage compartment bonnet, make
sure you always have with yourself
the CID device.

52
The other recognition system set-
tings that can be enabled/disabled
are:
– automatic locking of doors and
boot.
As regards the setting of the recog-
nition system customizations, refer
to the CONNECT supplement.
FAILURE INDICATION
The presence of anomalies in the
Keyless System is indicated by the
lighting of symbol Yon the instru-
ment display, together with the mes-
sage “VEHICLE PROTECTION
SYSTEM FAULT”.
IMPORTANT In case of fault, con-
tact your Lancia Dealership.
Before and during auto-
matic actuation of the
window regulators and
sunroof, always make sure that
the passengers and the persons
standing near the car are not
exposed to the risk of injures that
may be caused either by the mov-
ing windows and sunroof or by
objects dragged or hit by the
same. To actuate central opening of the
windows and sunroof, keep the
remote control button B(fig. 25)
depressed for more than 2 seconds
after opening the doors: both the win-
dow regulators and the sunroof will be
actuated until they are fully opened or
until the button is released.
This function can be used to aerate
the passenger’s compartment before
getting into the car parked in the sun.
IMPORTANT Do not lay the CID
device outside the car on the sunroof,
to avoid a fake identification of the
CID itself as if inside the car. It is rec-
ommend to carry about with you the
CID device (e.g. into a pocket). SYSTEM SETTINGS
The CONNECT enables to cus-
tomize certain functions of the
Keyless System recognition system,
through the settings that can be
selected on the CONNECT display.
The “central unlock” and “driver’s
door unlock” functions of the central
locking can be set also for the
Keyless System and operate as fol-
lows:
– central unlock: all the car doors
are unlocked simultaneously and
access is possible through every door
– driver’s door unlock: access is
possible through the driver’s door
whereas the other doors remain
locked, thus preventing un-autho-
rized persons from getting into the
car. In this case, the led on the dri-
ver’s door panel lights up (green
colour) whereas the leds on the other
doors remain off.
When “unlocking driver’s door” is
set, it is anyhow possible to unlock all
the doors, to enable access to passen-
gers, by pushing button B(fig. 18) on
CID device or, after opening the dri-
ver’s door, by pushing the central
unlock button existing on the door
panel.

56
Deadlock device
The deadlock device enables to dis-
connect mechanically the internal
door handles; in this case, doors can-
not be opened from the inside by
acting on the handles after breaking
the glass (improving protection
against theft).
The device can be switched on by
pressing the remote control button B
(fig. 29) again within 1 second after
closing the doors: active function
will be indicated by a beep and 2
further blinks of the direction indi-
cators.
The device activates only if all the
doors are properly closed.
When the deadlock device is
switched on, the door panel leds will
flash twice with red light.
After activating the dead
lock device it will be
impossible to get out of
the passenger compartment: for
this reason this device must be
activated only after making sure
that the passenger compartment
is empty.The front door leds are also used as
deterrent leds for the alarm system;
as a consequence, they will flash
when the alarm system is on or the
doors are locked.
The CONNECT enables to set the
central locking of all the doors or
only the driver’s door.
In the former case, all the car doors
are unlocked simultaneously and
access is possible through any door.
In the second case, access is possible
only through the driver’s door,
whereas the other doors are locked,
thus preventing un-authorized per-
sons from getting into the car.In this case, the driver’s door led
comes on with green light, whereas
the leds on the other doors will
remain off.
When only the driver’s door is
unlocked, after opening the driver’s
door, also the other doors can be
unlocked by pressing the central
unlocking button B(fig. 35) so as to
enable passengers getting into the
car.
IMPORTANTButtons Band C
(fig. 35) are disabled when the doors
are locked from the outside.
If, when the doors are closed from
the outside, one or more doors
and/or the boot are not closed cor-
rectly, the direction indicators will
flash rapidly for a few seconds.

Disabling rear door
locking/unlocking controls
To disable rear door locking/un-
locking controls, press the driver's
door button A(fig. 37) for more than
one second. When controls are off, the
button warning light will come on.
To restore controls, press button A
again. When controls are enabled, the
button warning light is off.CHILD LOCK
To prevent opening the rear doors
from the inside.
Engage by inserting the tip of the ig-
nition key in A(fig. 38) to turn the
lock.
Position 1- engaged.
Position 2- disengaged.
The device will be engaged even if
the doors are unlocked by means of
the centralised system.IMPORTANT After engaging the
lock, check by trying to open a rear
door with the internal handle.

Always use the lock when
transporting children. This
will prevent them opening
a door by themselves when travel-
ling.
AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKING
WHEN SPEED EXCEEDS
20 KM/H
The CONNECT enables to set
automatic locking of doors, boot and
fuel cap when the car speed exceeds
20 km/h.
To actuate these settings, refer to
the CONNECT supplement provid-
ed with the car.
