SPEEDOMETER
Shows the car speed (speedometer).
REV COUNTER
This indicates the engine rpm.
When the engine is idling, the rev counter may
indicate a gradual or sudden increase of the speed.
This behaviour is standard as it takes place during the
activation of the climate control system or the fan.
It should not be considered as a fault. In these cases,
a slow change in revs is used to protect the battery
charge.
IMPORTANT The electronic injection control system
gradually shuts off the flow of fuel when the engine
is “over-revving” resulting in a gradual loss of engine
power.FUEL LEVEL GAUGE
This shows the amount of fuel left in the fuel tank.
Warning light A fig. 3 comes on to indicate that
approximately 8-10 litres of fuel are left in the tank.
Etank emptyFtank full (see the instructions provided in the
"Refuelling the car" paragraph in this chapter).
Do not travel with the fuel tank almost empty: any
gaps in fuel delivery could damage the catalytic
converter.
IMPORTANT The needle will point to E and warning
light A fig. 3 will flash to indicate a fault in the
system. Contact a Fiat Dealership to have the system
checked.fig. 3

THE FIAT CODE SYSTEMTo further protect your car from theft, it has been
fitted with an engine immobilising system. It is
automatically activated when the ignition key is
removed.
There is an electronic device in each key which can
identify the signal emitted, when the engine is
started, from an aerial built into the ignition switch.
The signal is the "password", different every time the
vehicle is started, through which the control unit
recognises the key and enables starting.
OPERATION
Each time the vehicle is started turning the ignition
key to MAR-ON, the Fiat CODE system control unit
sends an acknowledgement code to the engine
control unit to deactivate the immobiliser. The code
is sent only if the Fiat CODE system control unit
has acknowledged the code received 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, during starting, the code is not correctly
recognised, the
warning light (or symbol on the
display) switches on in the instrument panel.
In this case, turn the key to STOP and then to
MAR-ON; if it is still locked, try again with the other
keys that come with the vehicle. Contact a Fiat
Dealership if you still cannot start the engine.IMPORTANT Each key has its own code which must
be stored by the system’s control unit. To have
new keys stored, up to a maximum number of eight
keys, contact a Fiat Dealership and be ready to
present all the keys you have in your possession, the
CODE card, a personal identity document and the
car ownership documents. The codes for keys not
presented during the storing procedure will be
deleted to ensure that any keys that are lost or
stolen cannot be used to start the engine.
warning light (or symbol on the display)
on whilst driving
❒If the
warning light (or symbol in the display)
switches on, this means that the system is running
self-diagnosis (caused, for example, by a voltage
drop).
❒If thewarning light (or symbol in the display)
stays on, contact a Fiat dealership.
The electronic components inside the key
may be damaged if the key is subjected
to strong shocks.

SAFE LOCK DEVICE
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This safety device inhibits the operation of:
❒interior handles;
❒door locking/unlocking button on the central trim
fig. 11;
thereby preventing the opening of the doors from
inside the passenger compartment if there has been
a break in attempt (e.g. a window has been broken).
The safe lock device therefore offers the best
possible protection against break-in attempts. We
recommend engaging it whenever the vehicle is
parked and left unattended.

WARNING
If the key with remote control battery is
flat , the system can be engaged by
using the metal insert in the door catch as
described previously: in this case, the device only
remains active for the rear doors.
Device activation
The system is automatically enabled on all the doors
by pressing button
twice on the key with remote
control.
Device activation is indicated by 3 flashes of the
direction indicators and a flash of the LED on the
door locking button on the dashboard.
If one or more of the doors is not closed correctly,
the dead lock device will not activate, thus
preventing a person from getting stuck inside the
passenger compartment by entering the car through,
and then closing, the open door.
WARNING
Once the safe lock system is engaged, it
is impossible to open the doors from
inside the car.Therefore, before getting out of
the car check that there is no one left on board.
Device deactivation
The system is disabled automatically on every door
when:
❒unlocking the doors;
❒by turning the ignition key to the MAR-ON
position.
