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.

❒the maximum air temperature for the HI air is set in
both areas;
❒sets the fan speed set according to the engine coolant
temperature to limit the flow of air that is insufficiently
warm to demist the windows;
❒the air flow is directed to the windscreen and front
door window glasses diffusers;
❒switches on the heated rear windscreen
WARNING The rapid demisting/defrosting function for
the windows remains on for about 3 minutes from when
the engine coolant reaches the appropriate temperature
for a rapid demisting of the windows.
When this function is active, the LED in the correspond-
ing button and the one for the heated rear windscreen but-
ton switch on. The message FULL AUTO goes off on the
display.
You can only adjust the fan speed and switch the heated
rear windscreen off manually when this function is active.
To restore the previous operating conditions, simply press
button B, air recirculation button G, compressor button
F or AUTO button A.
IMPORTANT With the compressor off, it is not possible
to introduce air into the passenger compartment at a tem-
perature lower than that of the outside air. In certain
weather conditions, the windows could mist up rapidly due
to the non-dehumidified air.
The switching off of the compressor remains memorised
even when the engine has been stopped.
To restore automatic compressor engagement control,
press the √
button again (in this case, the system will work
only as a heater) or press the AUTO button.
With the compressor switched off, if the outside tem-
perature is higher than the one set, the system is not ca-
pable of satisfying this request and signals it by the digits
for the temperature setting flashing after which the word
AUTO goes out.
With the climate control compressor off, the fan speed
can be set to zero manually (no bar shown).
With the compressor enabled and the engine started, the
fan speed may only be reduced to the minimum setting
(one bar shown).
Button for rapid window demisting/defrosting (D)
Press this button and the climate control system will au-
tomatically switch on all the functions required for fast
windscreen and side window demisting/defrosting:
❒the climate control compressor is turned on when
weather conditions are suitable;
❒the air recirculation is turned off;

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.

WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
GENERAL WARNINGS
Warning lights are accompanied by a specific message
and/or sound when applicable. These indications are brief
and precautionary and as such must not be considered as
exhaustive and/or alternative to the information contained
in the Owner’s Handbook, which you are recommended
to read carefully in all cases. Always refer to the informa-
tion in this chapter in the event of a failure indication.
IMPORTANT The fault indicators appearing on the dis-
play are divided into two categories: very serious and less
serious failures.
Very serious failures prompt a prolonged cycle of signals.
Less serious failures prompt a shorter cycle of signals.
Press SET ESC to stop the warning cycle in both cases.
Warning lights (or the symbol on the display) on the in-
strument panel will stay on until the cause of the failure
is eliminated.
WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
If the warning light xturns on when trav-
elling (on certain versions together with
the message on the display), stop the car imme-
diately and contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING

the warning light turns on but should go off after a few
seconds.
Brake fluid low
The warning light turns on when the level of the brake flu-
id in the reservoir falls below the minimum level, possi-
bly due to a leak in the circuit.
On some versions the display shows the associated
message.
x
Handbrake on
The warning light turns on when the handbrake is engaged.
On certain versions, there is also an audible warning if
the vehicle is moving.
IMPORTANT If the warning light turns on when travel-
ling, check that the handbrake is not engaged.
