SYMBOLSSpecial coloured labels have been attached near to or
on some of the components of your car. These
labels bear symbols that remind you of the
precautions to be taken with regard to that
particular component.
Under the bonnet there is also a label that
summarises all the symbols.
THE FIAT CODE SYSTEMTo further protect your car from theft, it has been
fitted with an engine immobilising system. It is
automatically activated when the ignition key is
removed.
There is an electronic device in each key which can
identify the signal emitted, when the engine is
started, from an aerial built into the ignition switch.
The signal is the "password", different every time the
vehicle is started, through which the control unit
recognises the key and enables starting.
OPERATION
Each time the vehicle is started turning the ignition
key to MAR-ON, the Fiat CODE system control unit
sends an acknowledgement code to the engine
control unit to deactivate the immobiliser. The code
is sent only if the Fiat CODE system control unit
has acknowledged the code received from the key.
Each time the ignition key is turned to STOP, the Fiat
CODE system deactivates the functions of the
engine management control unit.
If, during starting, the code is not correctly
recognised, the
warning light switches on in the
instrument panel.
In this case, turn the key to STOP and then to
MAR-ON; if it is still locked, try again with the other
keys that come with the vehicle. Contact a Fiat
Dealership if you still cannot start the engine.

❒air recirculation is on, thus isolating the passenger
compartment from the outside;
❒the compressor is off;
❒the fan is off;
❒the heated rear window can be activated/

START&STOP
Automatic dual zone climate control system
The automatic dual zone climate control system
manages the Start&Stop function (engine off when
car speed is zero) to ensure adequate comfort inside
the car.
The Start&Stop function is disabled until a suitable
comfort level in the passenger compartment is
ensured; thus the engine does not turn off during
these temporary stages, even if car speed is zero.
When the Start&Stop function is active (engine off at
zero car speed), the climate control system will
request the reactivation of the engine if the inside
temperature conditions rapidly deteriorate or if
maximum cooling ("LO") or quick demisting
(MAX-DEF) are requested.
With the Start&Stop function active (engine off at
zero car speed), air flow is reduced in order to
maintain comfort conditions inside the passenger
compartment as long as possible when the system is
in AUTO mode (LED on button on).
