IMPORTANT The engine immobil-
ising system is governed by the Lan-
cia CODE system and is automatically
activated when the ignition key is re-
moved.
REMOTE CONTROL (fig. 8)
The remote control is built into the
ignition key and is equipped with:
– button D for switching the alarm on;
– button C for switching the alarm off;
– button E for opening the boot with
the alarm on;
– LED F.
The buttons operate the control and
the LED flashes while the transmitter
is sending the code to the receiver.
This code (of the "rolling code"
type) is encoded by means of a spe-
cific algorithm and consequently
changes at each transmission.
The radio-frequency remote control
allows to operate the alarm system
also from a certain distance (up to ap-
proximately 10 metres from the car),
without the need of being addressed
towards the receiver and also if the
windows are dirty.

IMPORTANT Change the remote
control batteries as soon as possible if
LED F flashes briefly only once when
button D is pressed. The LED will
work normally after button D is
pressed for the second time after re-
placing the batteries.
SWITCHING THE ALARM ON
The alarm can only be switched on
with the ignition key at STOP, PARK
or removed.
To switch the alarm on, press and
release button D (fig. 8) on the igni-
tion key.
With the exception of certain markets,
a beep will be heard, the direction indi-
cators will light up for approximately
three seconds, the doors will be locked
and LED L (fig. 9) in front of the steer-
ing wheel will start flashing.
fig. 9
A self-test is run when the alarm is
switched on. The test is signaled by
LED L which flashes as follows:
– four flashes in one second: no
faults found;
– eight flashes in one second:
door/bonnet/boot open or faulty sen-
sor;
– fixed light: faulty volumetric or
anti-lift sensor.
If a fault is found, the concerned
component is cut out and the system
beeps to signal the event.
Surveillance
LED L (fig. 9) will flash to indicate
that the system surveillance function
is on.
The LED will flash as long as the
system is operating.
IMPORTANT The electronic alarm
operation is adapted to the rules in
force in the various countries.
