THE FIAT CODE
SYSTEM
To further protect your vehicle from
theft, it has been fitted with an engine
immobiliser system (Fiat CODE)
which is automatically activated when
the ignition key is removed.
An electronic device, in fact, is fitted
in each ignition key grip. The device
modulates a 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.
Page 9 of 258
The CODE card fig. 4is also sup-
plied with the keys and it bears the fol-
lowing:
A- the electronic code to be used
for emergency starting (see “Emer-
gency start-up” in the “In an emer-
gency” section);
B- the mechanical key code to be
given to the Fiat Dealershipwhen
ordering duplicate keys.
Keep the CODE card in a safe place.
You should always have the elec-
tronic code number written on the
CODE card with you at all times in
case you need to perform an emer-
gency 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
fig. 5warning light on the instrument
panel will flash briefly: this means that
the protection system has recognised
the key code and disabled the engine
immobiliser. Turn the key to AVV, to
start.
2)If the Ywarning light stays on,
the code was not recognised. In this
case, turn the key to STOPand then
back to MAR. If the engine remains
immobilised, try with the other keys
provided.

Do not leave the key inserted in the
switch. Cover the keyhole with the
rubber cap to prevent dust and wa-
ter getting in.
Emergency keys should be left in the
car coupled with the switch.
HOW TO KNOW IF THE
ALARM HAS GONE OFF
After deactivating the system, led A-
fig. 9will indicate the theft attempt
specifying also the cause of the alarm:
fixed light:remote control bat-
tery down
1 blink:right-hand door
2 blinks:left-hand door
5 blinks:volumetric sensors
(indicate a movement
inside the passenger’s
compartment)
6 blinks:bonnet To cut off the alarm before this,
press the remote control button; if
this is unsuccessful, turn the emer-
gency key to OFF(see next paragraph
“How to turn the alarm off”)
HOW TO TURN
THE ALARM OFF
If the remote control batteries run
down, or the car alarm system is
faulty, the electronic alarm can be cut
out by using one of the two emer-
gency keys supplied set on the system
deactivation control unit (that is
housed in the fuse box on the right
side of the dashboard).
To do this, open the fuse box, take
off the switch rubber cap, insert the
key and turn it counterclockwise
(OFFposition); the system is now de-
activated.
To turn the system back on, turn the
key clockwise (ONposition).7 blinks:load
compartment
8 blinks:tampering with
ignition switch
9 blinks:alarm wires cut
10 blinks:at least three causes
of alarm.
The led goes off when turning the
key to MAR or after about 2 minutes
blinking.
Since the electronic car
alarm absorbs electricity,
if you will not be using
your car for more than a month,
switch the system off with the re-
mote control and turn the emer-
gency key to OFF.
