when   the  key  is  removed   from   the  igni-
tion.
In  fact  the  grip  of each   key  contains   an
electronic   device   which  modulates   the  ra-
dio  frequency  signal   transmitted   when  the
engine  is  started   by a  special  aerial   incor-
porated  in  the  ignition  switch.
IMPORTANT    In  order   to  ensure    the
perfect  efficiency   of  the  electronic   devices
contained   inside   the  key,  avoid   exposing
it to  direct  sunlight.
This  modulated   signal  is the  “password”
by  which   the  control   unit  recognises    the
key  and  only  in this  condition   can  the  en-
gine  be started.
