SYMBOLS
Special coloured labels have been at-
tached near or actually on some of
the components of your Fiat 600.
These labels bear symbols that remind
you of the precautions to be taken as
regards that particular component.
THE FIAT CODE
SYSTEM
To further protect your car from at-
tempted 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. The ignition keys, in
fact, are fitted with an electronic de-
vice that transmits a coded signal to
the Fiat CODE control unit; only if
this signal is recognised can the engine
be started.
The modulated signal is a password.
Only if the control unit recognises the
key can the engine be started.The keys fig. 1
The following keys are provided with
the car:
– two keys Aif the car is not
equipped with remote controlled
electrical door locking system;
– two keys Aand two remote con-
trols Bif the car is equipped with re-
mote controlled electrical door lock-
ing system.

When you ask for extra keys, re-
member that all the keys, both the
new ones and those you already pos-
sess, must be stored in the memory
(up to a maximum of 7). Go to your
Fiat Dealership, taking all the keys
in your possession and the CODE
card with you.
The Fiat Dealershipmay ask you
to demonstrate that you own the car.
The codes of any keys that are not
available when the new storage proce-
dure is carried out will be deleted from
the memory to prevent any lost or
stolen keys being used to start the car.

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.
THE REMOTE
CONTROL
The remote control has a button A-
fig. 3 and a led Bto turn door lock-
ing on; the button activates the con-
trol and the led flashes while the
transmitter is sending the code to the
receiver.
The radio-frequency wave remote
control should only be used near the
car.

Ministerial homologation
In accordance with the legislation
covering radio frequencies in force in
each country, we should like to point
out that:
– the market-specific homologation
numbers are listed at the back of this
handbook (homologation fiche are
provided for some countries);
– in markets requiring transmitter
marking, the transmitter code is
printed on the remote control.REPLACING THE BATTERIES
fig. 4
If when the remote control button
is pressed the doors are not
locked/unlocked or the performed
operation signal (indicator lights on)
does not appear, change the battery,
using spare batteries of the same kind,
as follows:
1) open the plastic shells using the
tip of a screwdriver inserted in the
ring groove indicated in figure;
2) insert a new battery Brespecting
the polarity;
3) close the plastic shells.

ATTENZIONE:

fig. 7b
P4Q00226
Operations which lead
to knocks, vibrations or
localised heating (over
100°C for a maximum of 6
hours) in the area around the
pretensioners may cause damage
or trigger them. These devices
are not affected by vibrations
caused by irregularities of the
road surface or low obstacles
such as kerbs, etc. Contact a Fiat
Dealership for any assistance.A small amount of smoke may be
produced. This smoke is in no way
toxic and presents no fire hazard.
The pretensioner does not require
any maintenance or greasing. Anything
that modifies its original conditions in-
validates its efficiency. If due to unusual
natural events (floods, sea storms,
etc.) the device has been affected by
water and mud, it must necessarily be
replaced.
The pretensioner can
only be used once.
After a collision that has
triggered it, have it replaced at
a Fiat Dealership. The validity of
the device is written on the plate
located on the front left door
post. The pretensioners should
be replaced at a Fiat Dealership
as this date approaches..PRETENSIONERS
To increase the efficiency of the front
and rear (where provided) seat belts,
the Fiat Panda is fitted with preten-
sioners. These devices “feel”, through
a sensor, that a violent crash is in
progress and rewind the seat belts a
few centimetres. In this way they en-
sure that the seat belt adheres per-
fectly to the wearer before the re-
straining action begins.
The seat belt locks to indicate that
the device has intervened; the seat belt
cannot be drawn back up even when
guiding it manually.
IMPORTANTTo obtain the high-
est degree of protection from the ac-
tion of the pretensioning device, wear
the seat belt keeping it firmly close to
the chest and pelvis.
