KEYS
KEYS
1)
A code number is stamped on the plate
attached to the key set; detach this
plate and store it in a safe place (not in
the vehicle) for use if you need to make
a replacement key (auxiliary key).
Also write down the code number and
keep it in a separate safe and
convenient place, but not in the vehicle.
If your key (auxiliary key) fig. 2 is lost,
consult Fiat Dealership and have your
code number ready (1 = auxiliary key /2
= transmitter/3 = key code number
plate).
IMPORTANT Always keep a spare key
in case one is lost. If a key is lost, go to
a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.IMPORTANT The driver must carry the
key to ensure the system functions
properly.
KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM
This system uses the key buttons to
remotely lock and unlock the doors and
the boot lid, fuel-filler flap, and opens
the boot lid.
The system can start the engine without
having to take the key out of your purse
or pocket.
Note
The keyless entry system operation
may vary due to local conditions.
The keyless entry system is fully
operational (door/boot lid/fuel-filler flap
lock/unlock) when the ignition is
switched off. The system does not
operate if the ignition is switched to any
position other than off.
If the key does not operate when
pressing a button or the operational
range becomes too small, the battery
may be dead.
Battery life is about one year.
Replace the battery with a new one if
the
warning light (green) flashes in
the instrument cluster. Replacing the
battery about once a year is
recommended because the warning
light/indicator light may not illuminate or
flash depending on the rate of battery
depletion.
Additional keys can be obtained at
Fiat Dealership. Up to 6 keys can be
used with the keyless functions per
vehicle. Bring all keys to Fiat Dealership
when additional keys are required.

THEFT DETERRENT
SYSTEM
(where provided)
Intrusion sensor
(where provided)
The intrusion sensor fig. 6 uses
ultrasonic waves to detect movement
inside the vehicle and to raise an alert of
an intrusion into the vehicle.
The intrusion sensor detects certain
kinds of movement inside the vehicle,
however, it may also respond to
phenomenon outside the vehicle such
as vibrations, loud noise, wind, and air
currents.
In order for the intrusion sensor to
operate appropriately, be aware of the
following:
do not hang clothing or objects from
a head restraint;
return the sunvisors to their original
positions;
do not blind the intrusion sensor by
covering it or placing objects over it;
do not allow the intrusion sensor to
get soiled or wipe it with a liquid;
do not shock or cause an impact to
the intrusion sensor or the intrusion
sensor bezel;
do not install seats or seat covers
that are not FCA genuine products;
to prevent obstruction of intrusion
sensor, do not place objects or cargo
near the intrusion sensor that are higher
than the head restraints.
How to arm the system
Proceed as follows:
close the windows and the
convertible top securely, switch the
ignition OFF and make sure the bonnet,
convertible top, the doors, and the boot
lid are closed;
press the lock button on the
transmitter or lock the driver's door
from the outside with the auxiliary key.
The hazard warning lights will flash
once.With the advanced keyless
function: press a request switch. The

Page 18 of 216
warning light in the instrument
panel flashes twice per second for
20 seconds. After 20 seconds, the
system is fully armed.
With the intrusion sensor: the
intrusion sensor function can be armed
only when the convertible top is closed.
Even with a window open, the system
can be armed, however, leaving the
windows even partially open can invite
theft, and wind blowing into the vehicle
could trigger the alarm. The intrusion
sensor function can also be cancelled.DOORS
