THE FIAT CODE SYSTEM
To increase protection against theft,
the vehicle is equipped with an
electronic immobiliser system
(Fiat CODE) which is activated
automatically when the ignition key
is removed. Each key grip contains
an electronic device which
modulates the radio-frequency signal
emitted during ignition by an aerial
built into the ignition switch. The
modulated signal is the “password”,
by means of which the control unit
recognises the key and, only in this
circumstance, enables the engine to
be started.

8
For versions/markets where
provided, the CODE card fig. 2 is
supplied together with the keys and
bears:
A – the electronic code
B – the mechanical key code to be
given to the Fiat Dealership
when ordering duplicate keys.

Button D 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). Do not leave the
key unattended to avoid the
button being accidentally
pressed while it is being
handled, e.g. by a child.

Customer to demonstrate that they
are the owner of the vehicle.Codes
for the keys which are not
presented for the new storing
procedure are deleted from the
