(Park) (versions with automatic
transmission) and the engine off, the
ignition device will automatically move
to the STOP position.
NOTE With engine started, it is possible
to go away from the vehicle taking the
electronic key with you. The engine
will still be running. The vehicle will
indicate the absence of the key
on board when the door is closed.

WARNING
2)If the ignition device is tampered with
(e.g.: attempted theft), have it checked
over by a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible.
3)When getting out of the vehicle, always
take the key with you to prevent any
occupants from accidentally activating the
controls. Remember to engage the electric
parking brake. Never leave children
unattended in the vehicle.4)It is absolutely forbidden to carry out any
after-market operation involving steering
system or steering column modifications
(e.g.: installation of anti-theft device).
This could badly affect performance and
safety, invalidate the warranty and also
result in the non-compliance of the vehicle
with type-approval requirements.
5)Never remove the key without remote
control while the vehicle is moving. The
steering wheel will automatically lock as
soon as it is turned. This also applies
to cases in which the vehicle is towed.
6)Before exiting the vehicle, ALWAYS
engage the parking brake, steer the
wheels, engage the first gear if uphill and
the reverse if downhill. On versions with
automatic transmission, bring the gear
lever to P (Park) and press the ignition
device to bring it to STOP. If the vehicle is
parked on a steep slope, chock the wheels
with wedges or stones. When leaving the
vehicle, always lock all the doors by
pressing the dedicated button on the
handle (see "Keyless Entry" in the "Doors"
paragraph).
7)On versions equipped with Full Keyless
system, do not leave the electronic key
inside or near the vehicle or in a place
accessible to children. Do not leave the
vehicle with the ignition device in the MAR
position. A child could operate the electric
windows, other controls or even start
the vehicle.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR

FIAT CODEThe Fiat Code system prevents
unauthorised use of the vehicle,
disabling engine starting.
The system does not need to be
enabled/activated: operation is
automatic, regardless of the fact that
the vehicle's doors are locked or
unlocked.
When the ignition device is set to MAR,
the Fiat Code system identifies the
code transmitted by the key. If the code
is recognised as valid, the Fiat Code
system enables engine starting.
When the ignition device is brought
back to STOP, the Fiat Code system
deactivates the control unit controlling
the engine, thus preventing its starting.
For the correct engine starting
procedures, see the instructions in the
"Starting the engine" paragraph,
"Starting and driving" chapter.
IRREGULAR OPERATIONIf, during starting, the key code is not
correctly recognised, the
icon is
displayed on the instrument panel (see
the instructions in the "Warning lights
and messages" paragraph, "Knowing
the instrument panel" chapter). This
condition leads to the engine switching
off after 2 seconds. In this case, bring
the ignition device to STOP and then to
MAR; if it is still blocked, try with the
other keys provided. If it is still not
possible to start the engine, contact a
Fiat Dealership.
If the
icon is displayed while driving,
this means that the system is running
a self-diagnosis (e.g. due to a voltage
drop). If the display persists, contact
a Fiat Dealership.
ALARMActivation of the alarm triggers the
acoustic warning and the direction
indicators.
IMPORTANT The alarm is adapted by
the Manufacturer to meet the
requirements of the various countries
where the vehicle is marketed.SWITCHING ON THE
ALARM(where provided)
With the doors, bonnet and tailgate
closed and the ignition device turned to
STOP, point the key with remote control
or electronic key towards the vehicle
and press and release the
"FIAT"
button.
For versions with electronic key, the
alarm can also be engaged by pressing
the "door lock" button, located on the
door external handle. For further
information refer to the Keyless Entry
paragraph, a few pages further on.
The system emits a visual and acoustic
signal (where provided) and enables
door locking.
With the alarm on, warning light A fig. 6
flashes on the instrument panel.

IGNITION LOCK AND
PARK POSITIONVersions equipped with the Keyless
Go system: this function requires the
gear lever to be positioned at P (Park);
then bring the ignition device to STOP.
Versions equipped with key without
remote control: this function requires
the gear lever to be positioned at P
(Park) before extracting the key from
the ignition device.
If the vehicle battery is flat and the
ignition key is engaged, the latter is
locked in position.
To remove the key manually see
paragraph "Automatic transmission
lever unlock" in chapter "In an
emergency".GEAR ENGAGEMENT
DISABLING WITHOUT
BRAKE PEDAL PRESSEDThis system prevents you from moving
the gear lever from position P (Park) if
the brake pedal has not been previously
depressed.To bring the gear lever to a position
other than P (Park), the ignition device
must be in position MAR (engine on
or off) and the brake pedal must be
depressed. Button A fig. 91 on the gear
lever knob must also be pressed.
STEERING WHEEL
CONTROLS(where provided)
On some versions, the gearbox can be
managed sequentially using the
steering wheel controls fig. 92.
To use the controls on the steering
wheel, the gear lever must be in the
position D (Drive) or in central position
between (+) and (–):
❒operating the (+) lever: engage a
higher gear;
❒operating the (–) lever: engage a
lower gear.
The engagement of a lower (or higher)
gear is only permitted if the engine
rpm allow it.
WARNING
111)Never use position P (Park) instead of
the electric parking brake. When the
vehicle is parked, always engage the
electric parking brake to prevent accidental
movements of the vehicle.
112)If position P (Park) is not engaged the
vehicle might move and hurt people.
Before leaving the vehicle make sure that
the gear lever is in position P and the
electric parking brake is engaged.
113)Do not position the gear lever at N
(Neutral), nor switch off the engine to travel
downhill. This type of driving is dangerous
and reduces the possibility of intervening in
the case of variation of the road traffic or
surface. You risk losing control of your
vehicle and causing accidents.
WARNING
38)Before moving the gear lever from
position P (Park), bring the ignition device
to position MAR and press the brake
pedal. Otherwise the gear lever might be
damaged.
39)Engage the reverse gear only with
vehicle at a standstill, engine idling and
accelerator completely released.
