– lock/unlock the rear doors or the
tailgate;
– lock/unlock the side doors, Cargo
versions only;

The key B, with a built-in remote
control, has the same functions as key
Ain vehicles with door lock remote
control.
The CODE card fig. 3is also sup-
plied with the keys and bears the fol-
lowing:
a- the electronic code to be used for
emergency starting (see “Emergency
start-up” in section “In an emer-
gency”);b- the mechanical key code to be
given to the Fiat Dealershipwhen
ordering duplicate keys.
Keep the CODE card in a safe place.
Make sure you have the electronic
code of the CODE card with you at all
times in the event you have to per-
form an emergency start-up.
OPERATION
Each time the ignition key is turned
to STOP, or PARK, the protection
system will automatically immobilise
the engine.
When the key is turned to MARto
start the engine:
1)if the code is recognised the ¢
(Y) warning light on the instrument
panel will flash briefly; this means the
protection system has recognised the
key code and deactivates the immo-
biliser, turn the key to AVV, and the
engine will start.
2)If the warning light ¢(Y) stays
on, the code was not recognised. In
this case, turn the key to STOPand
then back to MAR. If the engine re-mains immobilised, try with the oth-
er key provided.
If you are still unable to start the en-
gine, use the emergency starting pro-
cedure (see “In an emergency”) and
take your vehicle to the nearest Fiat
Dealership.
When the vehicle is travelling and the
key is at MAR:
1)if the warning light ¢(Y) comes
on while the vehicle is moving, this
means that the system is running a self-
test (e.g. due to a voltage drop).
2)if the warning light ¢(Y) flash-
es, the vehicle is not protected by the
engine immobiliser. Contact a Fiat
Dealershipimmediately and get them
to store the codes of all the keys in the
memory.
IMPORTANT The electronic com-
ponents inside the key may be dam-
aged if the key is subjected to sharp
knocks.
IMPORTANTEach key provided
with the vehicle has its own code, dif-
ferent from all the others, which must
be stored in the memory of the sys-
tem control unit.

failure
Under normal conditions, turning the
ignition key to MAR, the warning light
turns on, but it should go out as soon
as the engine is started. The initial
turning on indicates that the warning
light is working properly. If the warn-
ing light stays on or turns on when
travelling:
– glowing steadily: means a fault in
the supply/ignition system which could
cause high emissions at the exhaust,
possible lack of performance, poor
handling and high consumption levels.
On certain versions the dedicated
message is displayed.
In these conditions it is possible to
continue driving without however re-
quiring heavy effort or high speed from
the engine. Prolonged use of the ve-
hicle with the warning light on may
cause damages. Contact Fiat Deal-
ershipas soon as possible. The warn-
ing light goes off if the fault disappears,
but it is still stored by the system.
– flashing: indicates the possibility
of damage to the catalyst (see “EOBD
system” in this section). INJECTION SYSTEM

79GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
When using the boot,
make sure the load you
are carrying does not ex-
ceed the permitted weight (see
“Technical specifications”). Also
ensure the items in the boot are
arranged properly to prevent
them being thrown forwards and
injuring passengers should you
brake sharply. Do not travel with
the tailgate open: exhaust gas
could filter into the passenger
compartment.
If you are travelling in
areas where refuelling
can be difficult and you
want to carry a can of petrol, fol-
low the law in force. Use a ho-
mologated can and secure it ad-
equately. Even given these pre-
cautions, the risk of fire in the
event of an accident is increased.
Do not use the key as a
handle to open the tail-
gate. You could damage it.
TAILGATE
Opening/closing the tailgate
To open the tailgate from the out-
side, turn the ignition key in lock
fig. 118and pull handle Ain the di-
rection of the arrow.
The opening of the boot is made eas-
ier by the gas-filed struts on each side.
IMPORTANTFit the key well into
the lock before turning it.
You will be able to open the tailgate
with the key only if you remove the
key from the lock after turning it by 45
degrees.
To close, lower the tailgate until the
lock clicks.
CENTRAL DOOR LOCKING
SYSTEM
From the outside
With the doors closed, fit and turn
the key in one of the front door locks.IMPORTANTAdjust the height of
the dipped headlight beam when trav-
elling at night with a rather heavy load
in the boot (see “Headlights” in this
chapter).
Make sure the load does not exceed
the values shown in “Weights” para-
graph, “Technical specifications” chap-
ter for correct operation of the head-
light adjustment device.
Do not knock the tailgate
into objects on the roof
rack when you open it.

USEFUL ADVICE FOR
LENGTHENING THE LIFE OF
YOUR BATTERY
To avoid draining your battery and
lengthen its life, observe the follow-
ing indications:
– when you park the vehicle, ensure
the doors, tailgate and bonnet are
closed properly;If the vehicle is left inac-
tive for long periods at
cold, remove the battery
and store it in a warm place to
prevent freezing.
165VEHICLE MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANTA battery which is
kept at a charge of less than 50% for
any length of time will be damaged by
sulphation leading to a reduction in
cranking power and a higher risk of
the battery electrolyte freezing (this
may even occur at –10°C).
If the vehicle is inactive for a long pe-
riod of time, refer to the “Vehicle
storage” paragraph in section “Driving
your vehicle”.
If you want to add accessories after
buying the vehicle (alarm system, free-
hand phone kit, etc.) visit a Fiat Deal-
ership. They can suggest the most suit-
able accessories to get and check
whether the electric system can sup-
port the required load or whether a
larger capacity battery is required.
These devices will, in fact, run off the
battery even when the key is not in-
serted (vehicle parked) and can deploy
the battery. – the ceiling lights must be off. The
vehicle is however provided with an
automatic system for switching off in-
ternal lights;
– do not keep accessories (e.g. sound
system, hazard lights, etc.) switched on
for a long time when the engine is not
running;
– before performing any operation
on the electrical system, disconnect
the battery negative cable;
– battery terminals shall always be
perfectly tightened.
