WHEN THE ALARM
IS TRIGGERED
When the system is on, the alarm comes
into action in the following cases:
– opening of one of the doors, bonnet or
tailgate;
– disconnection of the battery or sec-
tioning of electric cables;
– intrusion in the passenger compart-
ment, for example breakage of windows
(volumetric protection);
– attempt to start the engine (key in
MAR position);
– abnormal car lifting/sloping (for ver-
sions/markets where applicable).
Depending on the markets, the cutting in
of the alarm causes operation of the siren
and hazard warning ligths (for about 26
seconds). The ways of operating and the
number of cycles may vary depending on
the markets.
A maximum number of cycles is howev-
er envisaged.
Once the alarm cycle has ended, the sys-
tem resumes its normal control function.
VOLUMETRIC PROTECTION
To make sure that the protection system
works correctly the side windows and sun-
roof (if fitted) must be properly shut.
The function can be cut off (if, for exam-
ple, leaving animals in the car) carrying
out the following operations in rapid suc-
cession: starting from the condition with
the ignition key at MAR, move the key
to STOP, then immediately back to
MAR and then to STOP again, then
remove the ignition key.
The deterrent led (A-fig. 7) on the
dashboard lights up for about 2 seconds to
confirm that the function has been cut off.
To restore volumetric protection, move
the and keep the ignition key at MAR for
over 30 seconds.
If, with the volumetric protection func-
tion deactivated, an electric control con-
trolled by the ignition key at MAR (e.g.
power windows) turn the ignition key to
MAR, operate the control and move the
key to STOP in a maximum time of 30
seconds. This way volumetric protection is
not restored.
HOW TO CUT OFF
THE ALARM SYSTEM
To deactivate the alarm system com-
pletely (for instance during prolonged
inactivity of the vehicle) simply lock the
car turning the key in the lock.
MINISTERIAL CERTIFICATION
In accordance with the law in force in
each country, on the subject of radio fre-
quency, we wish to point out that for the
markets in which the transmitter needs to
be marked, the certification number is
given on the component.
Depending on the versions/markets, the
code may also be given on the transmitter
and/or on the receiver.
