Warning light Ycoming on when driving
❒If the warning light Yturns on, this
means that the system is running a self-
test (for example for a voltage drop).
❒If the warning light Ystays on, con-
tact a Fiat Dealership.
The electronic components
inside the key may be dam-
aged if the key is submitted to
sharp knocks.
OPERATION
Each time the vehicle is started turning the
ignition key to MAR, the Fiat CODE sys-
tem control unit sends a recognition code
to the engine control unit to deactivate
the inhibitor.
The code is sent only if the Fiat CODE
system control unit has recognised the
code transmitted from the key.
Each time the ignition key is turned to
STOP, the Fiat CODE system deactivates
the functions of the engine electronic con-
trol unit.
If the code has not been recognised cor-
rectly, the warning light
Yturns on ac-
companied by the related message on the
display (see section “Warning lights and
messages”).
In this case, the key should be moved to
the STOPposition and then back to
MAR; if the lock continues, possibly try
again with the other key provided with the
vehicle. If it is still not possible to start the
vehicle, contact Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT Every key has its own code,
which must be memorised by the system
control unit. To memorise new keys, up
to a maximum of eight, apply to Fiat Deal-
ership.
THE KEYS
CODE CARD fig. 3
The vehicle is delivered with two copies
of the ignition key and with the CODE
card which bears the following:
Athe electronic code;
Bthe mechanical key code to be given
to the Fiat Dealership when ordering
duplicate keys.
IMPORTANT In order to ensure perfect
efficiency of the electronic devices con-
tained inside the keys, they should never
be exposed to direct sunlight.
