Page: 18 / 369

Operation
The alarm activates in the following cases:
1. Wrongful opening of one of the doors or the decklid
(perimeter protection);
2. Wrongful operation of the ignition switch (key turned
to MAR ON/RUN);
3. Cutting of the battery leads;
4. Anomalous lifting/tilting of the car.
Operation of the alarm is indicated by an acoustic and
visual signal (flashing of the direction indicators for
several seconds). The alarm activation modes may vary
according to the market. There is a maximum number of
acoustic/visual cycles. When this is reached the system
returns to normal operation.
NOTE:
•
The engine locking function is guaranteed by the Alfa
Romeo CODE, which is automatically activated when
the key is extracted from the ignition switch.
•
The alarm is adapted to meet requirements in various
countries.
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 instru-
ment panel at a frequency of about one flash per second.
