2023 Fiat Ulysse Alarm System Guidelines

There is a strong safety system in the 2023 Fiat Ulysse that is meant to make the car safer and give its owners peace of mind. This cutting-edge system has many features to keep your car safe from people who shouldn’t be there and from being stolen. It usually has sensors strategically placed all over the car that can pick up on any strange behavior, like someone trying to break in or messing with the doors and windows. If someone breaks in without permission, the alarm system sounds a loud alarm that gets people’s attention. This scares away potential thieves and lets the owner of the vehicle or onlookers know what’s going on. Many 2023 Fiat Ulysse models may also come with advanced security features, like the ability to track and control the vehicle from afar using mobile apps. This lets owners keep a close eye on how safe their car is. Overall, Ulysse’s alarm system is an important part of its complete safety package. It keeps your car safe whether you park it in your garage or on a city street.

Alarm

(Depending on version)

 

A system which protects and provides a deterrent against theft and break-ins.

Exterior perimeter monitoring
The system checks for the opening of the vehicle. The alarm is triggered if anyone tries to open a door, the boot or the bonnet, for example.

Interior volumetric monitoring

The system only checks for any variation in volume in the cab.
The alarm is triggered if anyone breaks a window or enters the vehicle’s cab; however, it is not triggered if someone enters the loading area.
The system checks for any variation in volume in the passenger compartment.
The alarm is triggered if anyone breaks a window, enters the passenger compartment or moves inside the vehicle.

Self-protection function
The system checks whether any of its components are out of service.
The alarm is triggered if the battery, the central control or the siren wiring is put out of service or damaged.

Work on the alarm system
Contact a Fiat Dealership or a qualified workshop.
If your vehicle is fitted with Additional Heating / Ventilation, volumetric monitoring is not compatible with this system.
For more information on Additional Heating / Ventilation, refer to the corresponding section.

Locking the vehicle with full alarm system

Activation

• Switch off the ignition and exit the vehicle.
•  Lock or deadlock the vehicle using the remote control or with the Keyless Entry and Start system.
  When the monitoring system is active, the red indicator lamp in the button flashes once per second and the direction indicators come on for about 2 seconds.
  The exterior perimeter monitoring is activated after 5 seconds and the interior volumetric monitoring after 45 seconds.

If an opening (door, tailgate/side-hinged doors or bonnet) is not properly closed, the vehicle is not locked, but the exterior perimeter monitoring will be activated after 45 seconds, at the same time as the interior volumetric monitoring.

Deactivation

• Press the remote control unlocking button.
• Unlock the vehicle with the Keyless Entry and Start system.
  The monitoring system is deactivated: the indicator lamp in the button goes off and the direction indicators flash for about 2 seconds.

If the vehicle automatically locks itself again (as happens if a door or the boot is not opened within 30 seconds of unlocking), the monitoring system is automatically reactivated.

Triggering of the alarm

This is indicated by the sounding of the siren
and flashing of the direction indicators for 30 seconds.
The monitoring functions remain active until the alarm has been triggered ten times in succession.
When the vehicle is unlocked, rapid flashing of the indicator lamp in the button indicates that the alarm was triggered during your absence. When the ignition is switched on, this flashing stops immediately.

Locking the vehicle with exterior perimeter monitoring only

Deactivate the interior volumetric monitoring to avoid the unwanted triggering of the alarm, in certain cases such as:

• Slightly open window.
• Washing the vehicle.
• Changing a wheel.
• Towing the vehicle.
• Transport on a ship or ferry.

Deactivating interior volumetric monitoring

• Switch off the ignition and within 10 seconds press the alarm button until the indicator lamp is on fixed.
• Exit the vehicle.
• Immediately lock the vehicle using the remote control or the “Keyless Entry and Start” system. Only exterior perimeter monitoring is activated; the red indicator lamp in the button flashes every second.
  To take effect, this deactivation must be performed whenever the ignition is switched off.

Reactivating interior volumetric monitoring

• Deactivate exterior perimeter monitoring by unlocking the vehicle using the remote control or the “Keyless Entry and Start” system. The indicator lamp in the button goes off.
• Reactivate the full alarm system by locking the vehicle using the remote control or the “Keyless Entry and Start” system. The red indicator lamp in the button once again flashes every second.

Locking the vehicle without activating the alarm

• Lock or deadlock the vehicle using the key (integral to the remote control) in the driver’s door lock.

Failure of the remote control
To deactivate the monitoring functions:

• unlock the vehicle using the key (integral to the remote control) in the driver’s door lock,
•  Open the door; this sets off the alarm.
• Upon switching on the ignition the alarm stops. The button indicator lamp goes off.

Malfunction
When the ignition is switched on, the fixed lighting of the red indicator lamp in the button indicates a system malfunction. Have it checked by a Fiat Dealership or a qualified workshop.

Automatic activation

(Depending on version)
The system is activated automatically 2 minutes after the last door or the boot is closed.
To avoid triggering the alarm on entering the vehicle, first press the unlocking button on the remote control or unlock the vehicle using the “Keyless Entry and Start” system.
