coming on when driving

inside the key may be dam-
aged if the key is submitted to
sharp knocks.OPERATION
Each time the car is started turning the ig-
nition 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 ignitio n 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 turns on ac-
companied by the related message on the
display (see section “Warning lights and
messages”).

GROUP 0 and 0+
Babies up to 13 kg must be carried facing
backwards on a cradle seat, which, sup-
porting the head,
does not induce stress
on the neck in the event of sharp decel-
eration.
The cradle is restrained by the car
seat
belts fig. 7and in turn it must restrain the
child with its own belts.
fig. 7F0R0092m
The figures are indicative for assembly purposes only. Refer to the in-
structions supplied with the child restraint.
WARNING
Some child restraint systems for weight group 0 and 1 have a rear at-
tachment to the car seat belts and its own seat belts for securing the child.
Due to their weight, they may be dangerous if incorrectly mounted (e.g. if fastened
to the car seat belts with a cushion in between). Follow the assembly instructions
carefully.

dren may be carried facing forwards, with
