The electronic components in-
side the key may be damaged
if the key is submitted to sharp
knocks.
OPERATION
Each time the key is fitted into the ignition
switch, the Fiat CODE system control unit
sends a recognition code to the engine con-
trol unit to deactivate the inhibitor.
The code is sent only if the Fiat CODE sys-
tem control unit has recognised the code
transmitted from the key.
Each time the ignition key is removed, the
Fiat CODE system deactivates the func-
tions of the engine electronic control unit.
If the code has not been recognised cor-
rectly, the warning light
Y(where pro-
vided) turns on accompanied by the relat-
ed message on the display (see chapter
“Warning lights and messages”).
In this case, the key should be removed and
refitted; if the lock continues, possibly try
again with the other key provided with the
car. If it is still not possible to start the car
contact a Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT Every key has its own code,
which must be memorised by the system
control unit. To memorise new keys, up to
a maximum of eight, apply to Fiat Dealer-
ship.
THE FIAT CODE SYSTEM
To further protect your car from theft, it
has been fitted with an engine immobilising
system. This system is automatically acti-
vated when the ignition key is removed.
An electronic device, in fact, is fitted in each
ignition key grip. The device transmits a ra-
dio-frequency signal when the engine is
started through a special aerial built into the
ignition switch. The modulate signal, which
changes each time the engine is started, is
the “password”, by means of which the
control unit recognises the key and enables
to start the engine.Warning light
Ycoming on
when driving
❒If the warning light Yturns on, this
means that the system is running a
self-test (for example for a voltage
drop). At the first stop, turn the igni-
tion key to OFF and then back to
ON: if no failure is detected warning
light
Ywill not come on.
❒If the warning light Ystays on, re-
peat the procedure described previ-
ously leaving the key at OFFfor over
30 seconds. Should the inconvenience
persists, contact a Fiat Dealership.

Device activation fig. 16
The device is automatically activated on
every door in the following cases:
❒pressing twice button

Device deactivation
The device is deactivated automatically on
every door in the following cases:
❒when unlocking the doors by the re-
mote control;
❒when unlocking only the driver’s door
by the remote control;
❒when turning the ignition key to ON. Device activation is signalled by three
flashes of the direction indicators and
flashing of the led on the driver door pan-
el (see the table on next page).
Should one of the doors be not perfectly
closed, the dead lock device is not acti-
vated, thus preventing that a person get-
ting into the car from the open door re-
mains blocked inside the passenger’s com-
partment when he/she closes the door.

RAIN SENSOR (where provided)
The rain sensor is located behind the dri-
ving mirror in contact with the windscreen
and has the purpose of automatically ad-
just, during the intermittent operation, the
frequency of the windscreen wiper
strokes as to the rain intensity.
IMPORTANT Keep clean the glass in the
sensor area.
Activation fig. 64
Move the right-hand stalk downwards by
one position (B).
The activation of the rain sensor is sig-
nalled by a control acquisition “stroke”.
Turning the knurled ring Fit is possible to
increase the sensitivity of the rain sensor.
The increase of the sensitivity of the rain
sensor is signalled by a control and acqui-
sition “cycle”.
Operating the windscreen washer with
the rain sensor activated the normal wash-
ing cycle is performed at the end of which
the rain sensor resumes its normal auto-
matic function.Deactivation fig. 64
Move the stalk off Bor turn the ignition
key to OFF.
At next engine starting (key at ON), the
sensor will not be reactivated even if the
stalk is at B. In this event, to activate the
rain sensor you have to move the stalk
to Aor Cand then again to Bor turn the
knurled ring.
Rain sensor activation will be indicated by
at least one wiper “stroke” even if the
windscreen is dry.
The rain sensor is able to recognize and
automatically adjust itself in the presence
of the following particular conditions:
❒impurities on the controlled surface
(salt, dirt, etc.);
❒difference between day and night.

ESP SYSTEM
(Electronic Stability
Program)
(where provided)
The ESP system is an electronic system
controlling the car stability in the event of
tyre grip loss.
The ESP system is therefore particularly
useful when grip conditions of the road sur-
faces changes.
ESP SYSTEM INTERVENTION
It is signalled by the blinking of the warn-
ing light
áon the instrument panel, to in-
form the driver that the car is in critical
stability and grip conditions.
ESP SYSTEM OPERATION
The ESP system is automatically activat-
ed when the car is started and cannot be
de-activated.
FAILURE WARNINGS
In the event of failure, the ESP system is
automatically disconnected and the warn-
ing light
á, comes on with fixed light on
the instrument panel, together with the
message on the display (see section
“Warning lights and messages”). In this
case contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible.At pickup the ESP system control unit will
keep brake force on wheels until reaching
the torque suitable for starting, or in any
case for max. 1.5 seconds in order to pass
easily from the brake pedal to the accel-
erator pedal.
After 1,5 seconds without starting, the
system will deactivate automatically by re-
leasing gradually the brake force.
At releasing, the typical brake disengage-
ment noise indicating that the car is go-
ing to move will be heard.
Failure indications
System failure is indicated by the turning
on of warning light
áon the instrument
panel (together with the message on the
multifunction display) (see section “Warn-
ing lights and messages”).
IMPORTANT The Hill Holder system is
not a parking brake. Never get out of the
car without engaging the handbrake,
switching the engine off and engaging the
first gear (position P con with automatic
transmission).
Performance of the ESP sys-
tem, in terms of active safe-
ty should not induce the driver to take
pointless and unnecessary risks. The
style of driving must in any case al-
ways be adapted to the conditions of
the road surface, visibility an traffic.
Road safety is always the driver’s re-
sponsibility.
WARNING
HILL HOLDER SYSTEM
(where provided)
This system is an integral part of the ESP
system and it is provided to facilitate start-
ing on slopes.
It will activate automatically with the fol-
lowing conditions:
Uphill: car at a standstill on a road with a
gradient higher than 5%, engine running,
clutch and brake pedal pressed, gearbox
to neutral or engaged gear other than re-
verse.
Downhill: car at a standstill on a road with
a gradient higher than 5%, engine running,
clutch and brake pedal pressed and re-
verse gear engaged.
