1.1 Deactivation of the alarm system
The electronic alarm system performs the following functions:
- remote control for central door locking/unlocking;
- perimeter surveillance, detecting if doors and lids are open;
- motion surveillance, detecting intrusion in the passenger
compartment;
- vehicle movement surveillance.
Activation
To turn on the alarm system, press button F on the key:
- the turn indicators flash once;
- the system “beeps”;
- the red LED on the dashboard flashes;
- the central door locking system is activated and the doors are
locked.
The system activates after approximately 25 seconds.
When the electronic alarm is activated, the user may request
opening of the luggage compartment; in this case, the motion and
anti-lift sensors are temporarily deactivated.
F
If the luggage compartment is then closed, the sensors will be
reactivated.
If the turn indicators and the red LED on the dashboard flash 9
times when you activate the alarm system, it means that one of the
doors or the front/rear lid is open or not closed properly and is
therefore not protected by the perimeter surveillance. If this is the
case, check that the doors and front/rear lids are closed properly
and close any door or lid that is open without deactivating the
alarm system: the turn indicators will flash once to indicate that the
door or the front/rear lid is now closed properly and is protected
by the perimeter surveillance.
If the turn indicators and the red LEDs on the dashboard flash
9 times when the alarm system is activated with doors, rear
and front lids properly closed, it means that the self-diagnostic
feature has detected a malfunction in the system. Contact the
Ferrari Service Network to have the system checked.

unlocked.
Pressing button G twice unlocks the doors and also turns on the
low beams for 30 seconds.
The alarm system is off and you can now get into the vehicle and
start the engine.
To enter the vehicle if the remote control battery is flat, insert the

Disconnecting the battery
Before disconnecting the battery, deactivate the electronic alarm
using the remote control.
Warning
Never disconnect the battery from the electrical system when
the engine is running.
Before disconnecting the battery, lower the side windows by at
least 2-3 centimetres (0.8-1.2. in.) to avoid damaging the strips
when opening and closing the doors.
Warning
When the battery is connected and charged, this operation is
automatically performed when the doors are opened and closed.
The windows must remain lowered until the charged battery
is reconnected. If the battery is discharged with the windows
completely raised, only open the door if necessary and use the
utmost caution; do not close the door again until the windows
can be lowered.
We recommend using the battery conditioner if the vehicle is
going to left unused for a long period.
Reconnecting the battery
Place the clamp on the battery and fasten it by closing the locking
lever.
Each time the battery is reconnected, do the following before
starting the engine:
- close both doors and close the luggage compartment lid; unlock
and lock the doors using the remote control; open the luggage
compartment lid using the remote control;
- adjust the clock (date and time on instrument panel);
- close both doors and fully raise the driver side and passenger side
windows to their upper limit; check that the windows move down
to the “target position” when the doors are opened.
Warning
WAIT at least 1 minute before inserting the key in the ignition
switch.
Before starting the engine, wait at least 60 second with the
ignition key in position II to allow the electronic system that
controls the motor-driven valves and the AC ECU to run a selfacquisition process.
During this period, no devices must be activated.
The Motronic ECU self-acquisition cycle will only function correctly
when the intake air temperature is above 5 °C (41 °F).
