THE FIAT CODE SYSTEM
This is an electrical engine immobiliser system which in-
creases protection against attempted theft of the vehicle.
It is automatically activated when the ignition key is ex-
tracted.
Each key contains an electronic device which modulates
the signal emitted during starting by an antenna built into
the starting device. This signal is the ‘password’ which
changes at each starting and which the control unit uses
to recognise the key and enable starting.
OPERATION
Each time the vehicle is started by turning the ignition key
to MAR, the Fiat CODE system control unit sends a recog-
nition code to the engine management control unit to de-
activate the immobiliser.
The code is only sent if the Fiat CODE system control unit
has recognised the code transmitted by the key.
Each time the ignition key is turned to STOP, the Fiat
CODE system deactivates the functions of the engine man-
agement control unit.
If, during starting, the code is not correctly recognised,
warning light
Ylights up in the instrument panel.
In this case, turn the key to STOP and then to MAR; if it
is still locked, try again with the other keys that come with
the vehicle. Contact a Fiat Service Network if you still can-
not start the engine.
SYMBOLS
Special coloured labels have been attached near or on
some of the components of your vehicle. These labels bear
symbols that draw your attention to the precautions re-
quired when handling the component in question.
A plate summarising these symbols can be found under the
engine bonnet.

Proceed as follows to adjust the brightness:
– press the SET ESC button: the display will show ILLU;
– press button▲or ▼to adjust the brightness level;
– press the SET ESC button to go back to the menu screen
or hold the button down to go back to the standard screen
without saving.
Setting the speed limit (SPEEd)
This function is used to set a speed limit (km/h or mph);
the driver is alerted when this limit is exceeded (see
“Warning lights and messages”).

and at night, to adjust the brightness of the instrument pan-
el, buttons, radio display and automatic climate control dis-
play.
During the daytime, and with the dipped headlamps on,
the instrument panel, buttons and radio and automatic cli-
mate control displays are set to maximum brightness.

During fully automatic operation (FULL AUTO), the word
FULL will disappear if the air distribution and/or flow rate
and/or activation of the compressor and/or recirculation
settings are changed. In this way, the functions will switch
from automatic to manual control until the AUTO button
is pressed again. With one or more functions turned on
manually, the adjustment of the intake air temperature con-
tinues to be managed automatically, except with the com-
pressor switched off: if this is the case, the temperature of
the air introduced into the passenger compartment can-
not be lower than that of the outside air.
CONTROLS
Air temperature adjustment knob (I)
Turn the knob either clockwise or anticlockwise to in-
crease or lower the temperature in the passenger com-
partment.
The temperature set is shown on the display.
Turn the knob either all to the right or all to the left to
the extreme HI or LO position to turn the maximum heat-
ing or maximum cooling functions on:
❒HI Function (maximum heating):
select by turning the temperature knob clockwise over the
maximum value (32 °C).
USING THE CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM
The system can be started in different ways, but it is ad-
visable to start by pressing the AUTO button and then
turning the knob to set the temperature required on the
display. The system will start running automatically in this
way and the set temperature will be reached as quickly
as possible. The system will adjust the temperature, the
quantity and the distribution of the air introduced into the
passenger compartment and will manage the recirculation
function and the air conditioning compressor engagement.
During fully automatic operation the only manual inter-
vention required is the possible activation of the following
functions:
❒Ò
air recirculation, to keep it always on or off;
❒Zto speed up demisting/defrosting of the front door
window glasses, rear door window glasses and door
mirrors.
During fully automatic system operation, you can change
the set temperatures, air distribution and fan speed at any
time by using the relevant buttons or knobs: the system
will automatically change its settings to adjust to the new
requirements.

Lane change function
If you wish to signal a lane change, put the left lever in the
temporary position for less than half a second. The direc-
tion indicator on the side selected will flash five times and
then go out automatically.
“FOLLOW ME HOME” DEVICE
This device lights up the space in front of the vehicle for
a short time.
Activation
With the ignition key in the STOP position or extracted,
pull the lever towards the steering wheel and move it with-
in 2 minutes of the engine switching off.
Each time the lever is moved, the lights stay on for an ex-
tra 30 seconds up to a maximum of 210 seconds; then the
lights are switched off automatically.
Each time the lever is moved, warning light 3 on the in-
strument panel comes on and the corresponding mes-
sage will appear on the display (see “Warning lights and
messages”) for as long as the function remains on. The
warning light comes on when the lever is operated and
stays on until the function is automatically deactivated. Each
movement of the lever only increases the amount of time
the lights stay on.
Deactivation
Keep the lever pulled towards the steering wheel for more
than two seconds.
DIRECTION INDICATORS fig. 46
Place the lever in the (stable) position:
❒up (position 1): activation of right direction indicator;
❒down (position 2): activation of left direction indicator.
The
¥or Îwarning lights will come on intermittently in
the instrument panel.
Direction indicators switch off automatically when the ve-
hicle is back in a straight line.
If you want the indicator to flash briefly to show that you
are about to change lane, move the lever up or down with-
out it clicking into position. When released, the lever will
return to its default position.

ABS SYSTEM
(for versions/markets where provided)
This is an integral part of the braking system, which pre-
vents one or more wheels from locking or slipping re-
gardless of the road surface conditions and braking action,
giving the best control during emergency braking.
The EBD system (Electronic Braking Force Distribution)
completes the system, allowing the braking action to be
distributed between the front and rear wheels.
WARNING For maximum efficiency of the braking sys-
tem, a bedding-in period of about 500 km is needed: dur-
ing this period it is better to avoid sharp, repeated and pro-
longed braking.
SYSTEM INTERVENTION
The driver can tell the ABS system has come into action
because the brake pedal pulsates slightly and the system
gets noisier: it means that the vehicle speed should be al-
tered to suit the type of road surface.
Headlamp alignment adjustment
To adjust, press buttons Òandfig. 100 on the control
panel.
The display located on the instrument panel provides the
visual indication of the positions during the adjustment op-
eration.
Position 0 – one or two people in the front seats.
Position 1 – five people.
Position 2 – five people + load in the boot.
Position 3 – driver + maximum permitted load stowed in the luggage compartment.
WARNING Check the light beam alignment every time
the load transported changes.
FOG LIGHT DIRECTION
(for versions/markets where provided)
Contact the Fiat Service Network to have the direction
checked and, if necessary, adjusted.
ADJUSTING THE HEADLIGHTS WHEN
ABROAD
The dipped headlamps are adjusted to work in the coun-
try where the vehicle was originally purchased. When in
countries where you drive on the other side of the road,
you need to alter the light beam direction by affixing a spe-
cially designed self-adhesive film in order not to dazzle the
vehicles travelling in the opposite direction. This film is
provided by Lineaccessori Fiat and is available at Fiat Ser-
vice Network.
When the ABS intervenes and you notice
the brake pedal pulsating, do not be afraid
to keep the pedal pushed down. This will help you
to stop in the shortest distance possible, depend-
ing on the road conditions.

ESP SYSTEM
(Electronic Stability Program)
(for versions/markets where provided)
This is an electronic system that controls vehicle stability
in the event of tyre grip loss, helping to maintain direc-
tional control.
The ESP system is therefore particularly useful when grip
conditions of road surfaces change.
The MSR system (adjustment of the engine braking torque
during gear downshifts) and the HBA system (automatic
increase in the braking pressure during emergency brak-
ing) are present with ESP, ASR and Hill Holder systems
(for versions/markets where provided).
SYSTEM INTERVENTION
This is signalled by the flashing of warning light
áin the in-
strument panel, to inform the driver that the vehicle is in
critical stability and grip conditions.
SYSTEM ACTIVATION
The ESP system is automatically activated when the vehi-
cle is started and cannot be de-activated.
BRAKE ASSIST (emergency braking assistance
integrated in ESP)
(for versions/markets where provided)
This system (which cannot be deactivated) recognises
emergency braking conditions according to the speed of
operation of the brake pedal and provides an additional
hydraulic braking pressure to support that provided by the
driver. This allows faster and more powerful operation
of the braking system.
Brake Assist is deactivated on the versions equipped with
ESP, in the event of ESP system failure (indicated by warn-
ing light
ácoming on together with the message in the
multifunction display, where provided).
When the ABS cuts in, and you feel the
brake pedal pulsating, do not remove your
foot, but keep it pressed; in doing so you will stop
in the shortest distance possible under the road
conditions at the time.
