SYMBOLSSome car components have coloured labels whose
symbols indicate precautions to be observed when
using this component.
A plate summarising these symbols fig. 6 can be
found under the bonnet.
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 (or symbol on the
display) 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.

IMPORTANT Each key has its own code which
must be stored by the system’s control unit. To
have new keys stored, up to a maximum number of
eight keys, contact a Fiat Dealership and be ready
to present all the keys you have in your possession,
the CODE card, a personal identity document
and the car ownership documents. The codes for
keys not presented during the storing procedure
will be deleted to ensure that any keys that are lost
or stolen cannot be used to start the engine.

The electronic components inside the key
may be damaged if the key is subjected
to strong shocks.
THE KEYSCODE CARD
(for versions/markets, where provided)
A CODE card fig. 7 is provided together with the
vehicle keys. This should be presented to a Fiat
Dealership should you require any duplicate keys.

efficiency of the electronic devices inside the keys,
they should never be exposed to direct sunlight.

REPLACING THE REMOTE CONTROL COVER

SAFE LOCK DEVICE(for versions/markets, where provided)
This safety device inhibits the operation of:
❒interior handles;
❒door locking/unlocking button fig. 13 on the
central trim;
thereby preventing the opening of the doors from
inside the passenger compartment if there has been
a break-in attempt (e.g. a window has been
broken).
The safe lock device therefore offers the best
possible protection against break-in attempts. We
recommend engaging it whenever the vehicle is
parked and left unattended.
WARNING
Once the safe lock system is engaged, it
is impossible to open the doors from
inside the car.Therefore, before getting out of
the car check that there is no one left on
board.
WARNING
If the key with remote control battery
is flat , the system can be engaged by
using the metal insert in the door catch as
described previously: in this case, the device
only remains active for the rear doors.

Device activation is indicated by 3 flashes of the
direction indicators and a flash of the LED on the
door locking button on the dashboard (see table on

the safe lock device will not activate, thus
preventing a person from getting stuck inside the
passenger compartment by entering the car
through, and then closing, the open door.Device deactivation
The system is disabled automatically on every door
in the following cases:
❒unlocking the doors;
❒turning the ignition key to the MAR-ON position.
