To Arm The System; To Disarm The System - Alfa Romeo 4C User Manual

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.
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 instrument 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 cor-
rectly 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 ve-
hicle 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).
