IMPORTANT Do not remove the

battery from the CID device until

when its replacement is possible. 

Where system is unable to identify

the CID device (e.g. the CID battery

is flat) the car can be accessed by

using the emergency key existing

inside the CID itself. 

When switched on, the alarm sys-

tem will be actuated when the door

is opened and the siren will start

sounding but will be switched off by

turning the starting knob to MAR.

Car start-up will moreover be possi-

ble by positioning the CID into the

special seat A (fig. 21), located in

front of the gear lever. Under these

conditions, such compartment is the

only position capable of acknowledg-

ing the presence of a CID device

inside the passenger compartment.

It is advised to always

carry about with you the

CID device, avoiding to

leave it unguarded inside the

passenger compartment, because

in this case any children remain-

ing unguarded inside the car or

unauthorised people could start

the engine.

Do not expose the CID

device to electromagnetic

fields or high-intensity

radio frequency sources, to avoid

operation anomalies. Heavy

shocks or exposure to direct sun-

light could damage the electronic

components of the device. 

IMPORTANT Do not lay the CID

device outside the car on the sunroof,

to avoid a fake identification of the

CID itself as if inside the car. It is rec-

ommend to carry about with you the

CID device (e.g. into a pocket). 

“GARAGE” POSITION

(EMERGENCY ACTUATION)

During emergency or servicing

operations, the CID device shall be

housed in the dashboard central

oddment compartment A (fig. 21) in

front of the gear lever.

The electronic component in the

CID device is of the “passive” type

and does not require dedicated

power supply; it can therefore oper-

ate in “garage” position even if the

CID device battery is run down.
