THE FIAT CODE
SYSTEM
To further protect your vehicle from
attempted theft, it has been fitted with
an electronic engine immobiliser sys-
tem (called Fiat CODE) which is au-
tomatically activated when the ignition
key is removed. Each ignition key, in
fact, contains an electronic device,
which modulates a radio-frequency
signal emitted by a special aerial, built
into the ignition switch, during ignition.
The modulated signal is a “password”
with which the control unit recognis-
es the key. Engine ignition is enabled
only if the key is recognised by the sys-
tem.THE KEYS fig. 2
The following keys are supplied with
the car:
– two keys Aif the car is fitted with
remote central door locking system
and electronic alarm.
– two keys Bif the car is fitted with
remote central door locking system,
electronic alarm and powered side
sliding doors.The keys shall be used to:
– ignition switch;
– lock/unlock the driver and passen-
ger door
– operate remote door lock-
ing/unlocking
– operate the alarm system (for ver-
sions/markets, where provided)

ment.

A CODE card fig. 5is provided with
the keys. This CODE card bears the
electronic code used by the Fiat
Dealershipswhenever the vehicle
cannot be started. The key fig. 4is fitted with 4 but-
tons:
A -to activate the central locking
system, the alarm and the localisation
function;
B -to activate the central unlocking
system and deactivate the alarm;
C -to lock/unlock the right-hand
side sliding door;
D -to lock/unlock the left-hand side
sliding door.
By pressing button Athe so-called
“localisation” function is turned on: all
the passenger compartment lights and
direction indicators are switched on
for a couple of seconds. Such function
is recognised by the system up to a
distance of around 30 meters from the
vehicle.
The key is also fitted with a metal in-
sert Fwhich can be pushed inside the
key grip by pressing button E.The remote control inside the key
works on radio-frequency.
IMPORTANTIn order to ensure
perfect efficiency of the electronic de-
vices contained inside the keys, they
should never be exposed to direct
sunlight. When pressing the but-
ton E, take care to pre-
vent the metal insert
from causing harm or damage
when it comes out. The button
E should only be pressed when
the key is away from the body, in
particular from the eyes and
from objects that can be spoilt
(e.g. clothes). Make sure the key
can never be touched by others,
especially children, who may in-
advertently press button E.The electronic compo-
nents inside the key may
get damaged if the key is
submitted to sharp knocks.

REPLACING THE KEY
BATTERIES fig. 6-7
If the doors do not lock and the di-
rection indicators do not come on
when the button on the remote con-
trol is pressed, replace the batteries
with others of the same time:
– open the metal insert;
– open the plastic casing Aby forc-
ing recess B;
– remove the printed circuit Cwith
the battery;
– extract the battery Dand replace
it respecting the polarity;
– refit the printed circuit Cwith the
battery facing inwards;
– close the plastic casing A.Since the electronic alarm absorbs
electricity, if you will not be using the
vehicle for more than a month, you
are advised to switch the system off
with the remote control. This will pre-
vent the battery from going flat. All the keys and the
CODE card must be
handed over to the new
owner when selling the car.
fig. 5
F0B0404b
This code is masked by a special
paint, which should be removed when
the CODE card is used. The CODE
card should therefore be kept in a safe
place and not in the vehicle.Used batteries pollute
the environment. Dispose
of them in the special
containers as specified by current
legislation or take them to your
nearest Fiat Dealership, which
will deal with their disposal. Do
not expose them to naked flames
and high temperatures. Keep out
of children’s reach.

CENTRAL DOOR LOCKING
SYSTEM
From the outside
With the doors closed: insert and
turn the key in the lock of one of the
front doors.
From the inside
With the doors closed: press button
C-fig. 19placed next to the front ceil-
ing lamp.
Pressing or lifting one of the rear sill
buttons only locks or unlocks the par-
ticular door involved.
IMPORTANTIf one of the doors

ure in the system, the central locking
feature will not work and the direc-
tion indicators will not flash; after
some attempts, the device stops
working for around 20 seconds. In
these 20 seconds, the door can be
locked or unlocked manually without
the electrical system coming into play.
After the 20-second period, the con-
trol unit is ready to receive commands
once more.
If the reason for the malfunction has
been removed, the device will start to
work properly again. If not, it will cut
out once more.“Door open” alarm

this reason do not use the super
door lock when there are pas-
sengers in the vehicle.

IN AN EMERGENCY
178
IF THE BATTERY
IS FLAT
First of all, read the “Car mainte-
nance” section for steps to be taken
to avoid the battery running down and
to ensure it has a long life.
IMPORTANTBattery recharging
procedure is given as information on-
ly since this operation shall be only
performed at a Fiat Dealership.
RECHARGING THE BATTERY
You are advised to recharge the bat-
tery slowly for a period of approxi-
mately 24 hours at a low amperage.
Charging for too long could damage
the battery.
Proceed as follows:
1)disconnect the terminal from the
battery negative pole.IMPORTANTIf the vehicle is
equipped with an alarm, switch it off
with the remote control.
2)Connect the charger cables to the
battery terminals.
3) Turn on the charger.
4)When you have finished, turn the
charger off before disconnecting the
battery.
5)Reconnect the cables to the bat-
tery terminals. Make sure the polari-
ty is correct.
The liquid in the battery
is poisonous and corro-
sive. Do not let it touch
the skin or eyes. Recharging the
battery should be done in a well-
ventilated area away from naked
flames or possible sources of
sparks: explosion and fire risk.Do not attempt to
charge a frozen battery: it
must firstly be thawed,
otherwise it may burst. If freez-
ing has occurred, the battery
should be checked by skilled per-
sonnel to make sure that the in-
ternal elements are not damaged
and that the body is not cracked,
with the risk of leaking poisonous
and corrosive acid.
