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.
