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.
