PRESCRIPTIONS FOR HANDLING THE CAR AT THE END OF ITS
LIFE
(where provided)
FCA has been committed for many years to safeguarding the environment through the constant improvement of its production
processes and manufacturing products that are increasingly "eco-compatible". To grant customers the best possible service in
terms of respecting environmental laws and in response to European Directive 2000/53/EC governing vehicles at the end of
their life, FCA is offering its customers the chance to hand over their vehicle at the end of its life without incurring any additional
costs. The European Directive sets out that when the vehicle is handed over, the last keeper or owner should not incur any
expenses as a result of it having a zero or negative market value.
To hand your vehicle over at the end of its life without extra cost, contact one of our dealerships if you are purchasing another
vehicle or an FCA-authorised collection and scrapping centre. These centres have been carefully chosen to offer high quality
service for the collection, treatment and recycling of vehicles at their end of life, respecting the surrounding environment.
You can find further information on these collection and scrapping centres either from an FCA dealership or by calling the
number in the Warranty Booklet or by consulting the websites of the various FCA brands.

MULTIMEDIA DEVICES
IMPORTANT Some multimedia players
may not be compatible with the
Uconnect system.
ANTI-THEFT
PROTECTION
The system is equipped with an
anti-theft protection system based on
the exchange of information with the
electronic control unit (Body Computer)
on the vehicle.
This guarantees maximum safety and
prevents the secret code from being
entered after the power supply has
been disconnected.
If the check has a positive outcome, the
system will start to operate, whereas if
the comparison codes are not the same
or if the electronic control unit (Body
Computer) is replaced, the system will
ask the user to enter the secret code
according to the procedure described
in the paragraph below.
Entering the secret code
(Uconnect™Radio Nav 6.5" excluded)
When the system is switched on, if the
code is requested, the display will show"Please enter Anti-Theft Code" followed
by the video page showing a keypad to
enter the secret code.
The secret code is made up of four
digits, from 0 to 9: to insert the first digit
of the code, turn the "BROWSE
ENTER" right knob and press to
confirm.
After inserting the fourth digit, move the
cursor to "OK" and press the
"BROWSE ENTER" right knob: the
system will start to operate.
If an incorrect code is entered, the
system displays "Incorrect Code" to
notify the user of the need to enter the
correct code.
After the 3 available attempts to enter
the code, the system displays
"Incorrect Code. Radio locked. Wait for
30 minutes". Once the text has
disappeared you can start the code
entering procedure again.
Vehicle radio passport
(Uconnect™Radio Nav 6.5" excluded)
This document certifies ownership of
the system. The vehicle radio passport
shows the system model, serial number
and secret code.
In the case of loss of the vehicle radio
passport, contact the Fiat Dealership,
taking an ID document and the vehicle
ownership documents.
