VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM SYSTEM — IF
EQUIPPED
The vehicle security alarm monitors the doors and

decklid for unauthorized entry. It will also activate the

siren and emit a visual flash of the turn signals (front

and rear) for any of the following intrusion cases.

Operation

The alarm activates in the following cases:
1. Wrongful opening of one of the doors or the decklid

(perimeter protection).

2. Cutting of the battery leads.
3. Movement inside the passenger compartment (volu-

metric protection).

4. Anomalous lifting/tilting of the vehicle.
Operation of the alarm is indicated by a visual signal

(flashing of the direction indicators for several seconds).

There is a maximum number of visual cycles. When this

is reached the system returns to normal operation.
To Arm The System
With the doors and decklid closed and the ignition key

either turned to STOP (OFF/LOCK) or removed, point

the key towards the vehicle then push and release the

lock button.
The system emits a visual signal and activates door

locking.

20 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A self-diagnosis stage lasting approximately 30 seconds

precedes the activation of the alarm. During the self-

diagnosis, the vehicle security light flashes in the instru-

ment panel at a frequency of about one flash per second.
After the self-diagnosis stage, the vehicle security light

flashes at a lower frequency (approximately one flash

every three seconds).
If, after the alarm is switched on, a second visual signal

emit via the vehicle security light in the instrument

panel, wait about four seconds and switch off the alarm

by pushing the lock button, check that the doors and

decklid are closed correctly and then reactivate the

system by pushing the unlock button.
If the alarm emits a visual signal even when the doors

and decklid are closed correctly, a system malfunction

has occurred: in this case, contact an authorized dealer.
To Disarm The System
Deactivation
Push the unlock button.

The following operations are performed:
• Two brief flashes of the direction indicators.
• Unlocking of the doors.
NOTE:
• If the central door locking system is released using

the metal insert of the key, the alarm is not disabled.

• In the event of accidental activation of the alarm, or

in any case to interrupt the visual signal cycle when

activated, it is possible to push the unlock button or

turn the ignition key to MAR (ON/RUN) for at least

five seconds, after which the system will deactivate.

Disarming
To completely disable the alarm (e.g. during a lengthy

period of vehicle inactivity), lock the vehicle by turning

the metal insert of the key in the door lock.
NOTE:

If the batteries of the key fob run out or there is

a fault in the system, the alarm can be switched off by

inserting the key in the ignition switch and turning it to

MAR (ON/RUN).
