THE FIAT CODE SYSTEM
This is an electrical engine locking system which
increases protection against attempted theft of the
vehicle. It is automatically activated when the ignition
key is removed.
An electronic device, in fact, is fitted in each ignition key
grip. The device transmits a radio-frequency signal when
the engine is started through a special aerial built into
the ignition switch. The modulated signal, which changes
each time the engine is started, is the “password”, by
means of which the control unit recognises the key and
enables to start the engine.
OPERATION
Each time the vehicle is started by turning the ignition
key to MAR-ON, the Fiat CODE system control unit
sends a recognition code to the engine control unit to
deactivate the immobiliser.
The acknowledgement 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
management control unit.
If the code is not recognised correctly during ignition,
the
Ywarning light comes on on the instrument panel
together with a specific message on the display (see
“Warning lights and messages”).
SYMBOLS
Special coloured plates have been attached near or on
some of the components of your vehicle. These plates
bear symbols that draw your attention to the
precautions required when handling the component in
question.
The plate summarising the symbols used can be found
under the bonnet, fig. 2.

If the needle reaches the red area, stop
the engine immediately and contact
a Fiat Dealership.The symbols are gradually turned off as the oil level
drops.
Four or five symbols light up to indicate a sufficient level
of oil in the sump. If the fifth symbol is not lit, this does
not indicate a fault or that insufficient oil is present in
the sump.
If the oil level is lower than the minimum required value,
the display shows a dedicated message indicating
minimum engine oil level and the need for a top-up.
IMPORTANT To find out the correct oil quantity,
always check using the dipstick (see paragraph
“Checking levels” in the section “Maintenance and
care”).
After a few seconds, the symbol display indicating the
amount of engine oil disappears and:
❒when the next scheduled servicing is near, the time
to the next service is displayed and the warning light
õlights up on the instrument panel. When the
service date is reached, the display shows
a dedicated message;
❒then, if it is nearly time to change the engine oil, the
time to the next oil change is shown on the top row
of the display. When the service interval has expired
a dedicated warning will be shown on the display. ENGINE OIL LEVEL GAUGE
(for versions/markets where provided)
The gauge provides a graphic indication of the level of
oil in the engine.
When the ignition key is turned to MAR-ON the display
shows the oil level on the first row by turning five
symbols on/off.
