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.
warning light (or symbol on the display)
on whilst driving
❒If the
warning light (or symbol in the display)
switches on, this means that the system is running
self-diagnosis (caused, for example, by a voltage
drop).
❒If thewarning light (or symbol in the display)
stays on, contact a Fiat dealership.
The electronic components inside the key
may be damaged if the key is subjected
to strong shocks.

AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHT SENSOR
(dusk sensor)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
It detects variations in brightness outside the vehicle
depending on the light sensitivity setting: the greater
the sensitivity, the less outside light needed to
activate the exterior lights being turned on.
The sensitivity of the dusk sensor may be adjusted by
means of the "Setup menu" on the instrument panel.
Activation
Turn the ring nut to position
fig. 36: this turns the
side lights and the dipped headlights on

CRUISE CONTROL(constant speed regulator)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This is an electronically controlled driving assistance
device which allows the car to be driven at a chosen
speed above 30 km/h on long stretches of dry,
straight roads with few variations (e.g. motorways),
without having to depress the accelerator pedal.
The use of this device on extra-urban roads with
traffic is not therefore recommended. Do not use
the device in town.
TURNING THE DEVICE ON
Turn the ring nut A fig. 42 to the ON position.
The device must only be switched on in 4th gear or
higher. When travelling downhill with the device
engaged, the vehicle speed may slightly exceed the
preset one.The activation is indicated by the turning on of
warning light
on the instrument panel (together
with the dedicated message on the display) (see
“Warning lights and messages” chapter).
STORING THE VEHICLE SPEED
Proceed as follows:
❒turn ring nut A fig. 42 to ON and press the
accelerator pedal so that the car reaches the
desired speed;
❒turn the ring nut B to (+) for at least three
seconds, then release it. The vehicle speed is now
memorised and you can therefore release the
accelerator pedal.
If needed (when overtaking for instance), you can
accelerate simply by depressing the accelerator pedal;
when you release the pedal, the vehicle goes back
to the speed set previously.
RESTORING STORED SPEED
If the device has been switched off, for example by
depressing the brake or clutch pedal, the memorised
speed can be restored as follows:
❒accelerate progressively until a speed close to that
stored is reached;
❒engage the gear selected at the time that the
speed was memorised (4th, 5th or 6th gear);
❒press button C fig. 42.
