SYMBOLS
Some vehicle components have
coloured labels whose symbols
indicate precautions to be observed
when using this component. Under
the bonnet there is also a label
that summarises all the symbols.
THE FIAT CODE
SYSTEM
IN BRIEF
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.
Each key contains an electronic
device which modulates the
signal emitted during ignition by
an antenna built into the ignition
device. The signal, which
changes each time the engine is
started, is the “password”, by
means of which the control unit
recognises the key and enables
starting.
1)
Operation
Each time the vehicle is started
turning the ignition key to
MAR-ON, the Fiat CODE system
control unit sends a recognition
code to the Powertrain Control
Module 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
Powertrain Control Module.
Irregular operation
If, during starting, the code has not
been recognised correctly the
warning light
on the instrument
panel turns on accompanied by
the related message on the display
(see section “Warning lights and
messages”).

Changing battery -
key with remote
control
To replace the remote control
battery, proceed as follows fig. 9:
❒press button A and open the metal
insert B;
❒turn the screw C to
using a fine
bit screwdriver;
❒take out the battery case D and
replace the battery E making sure
that polarities are correct;
❒refit the battery case D inside the key
and lock it turning the screw C to
.
1)
WARNING
1) Press button B only with the key
away from your body, specifically
from your eyes and from objects
which could get damaged (e.g.
your clothes). Do not leave the key
unattended to prevent people,
especially children, from
inadvertently pressing the button.
IMPORTANT
1) Used batteries are harmful to the
environment. You can dispose of
them either in the correct
containers as specified by law or
by taking them to a Fiat
Dealership, which will deal with
their disposal.
ELECTRONIC ALARM
(for versions/markets, where
provided)
The alarm, in addition to all the
remote control functions described
previously, is controlled by the
receiver located under the
dashboard near the fuse box.
Operation
The alarm intervenes in the
following cases:
❒wrongful opening of a door or the
bonnet (perimeter protection);
❒when the ignition system is started
up (ignition key turned to MAR-ON);
❒cutting of the battery leads.
Depending on the market, the
activation of the alarm causes the
activation of the siren and the
direction indicators (for about 26
seconds). Alarm tripping and the
number of cycles depend on the
sales market.
There is a maximum number of
acoustic/visual cycles. When this is
reached the system returns to
normal operation.

IMPORTANT The engine stop
function is guaranteed by the Fiat
CODE, which is automatically
activated when the ignition key is
extracted from the ignition switch.
Activation
With the doors and bonnet closed
and the ignition key either turned to
STOP or removed, point the key
with the remote control towards the
vehicle and press and release the
lock button.
Excluding some markets, the
system produces an acoustic
warning (beep) and enables door
locking.
The switching on of the alarm is
preceded by an self-diagnosis
stage: if a fault is detected, the
system produces another acoustic
signal.
In this case, turn the alarm off by
pressing the "release doors/release
load compartment" button, check
that the doors and bonnet are
properly closed and turn the alarm
back on by pressing the lock
button.If a door or the bonnet is not
properly shut, it will be excluded
from the testing by the alarm
system.
If the alarm produces an acoustic
signal even when the doors and
bonnet are correctly closed, a fault
has occurred in the operation of the
system. Contact a Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT The alarm does not
come on when the central locking
is activated using the metal insert in
the key.
IMPORTANT The alarm is adapted
to meet requirements in various
countries.
Disengagement
Press the door release/load
compartment release button on the
key with remote control.
The following operations are
performed (excluding some
markets):
❒direction indicators flash twice;
❒there are two short acoustic signals
(beeps);
❒unlocking of the doors.
IMPORTANT The alarm does not
switch off when the central opening
is activated using the metal insert
in the key.
Break-in attempt
indication
Any break-in attempt is indicated
by the turning on of warning light
on the instrument panel
together with the message on the
display (where provided, see
paragraph “Warning lights and
messages” in the “Knowing the
instrument panel” section).
Disabling
To permanently disable the alarm
(e.g. during a long period of
inactivity), simply lock the vehicle by
turning the metal insert of the key
with remote control in the lock.
IMPORTANT If the batteries of the
key with the remote control run
out or the system fails, the alarm
can be switched off by placing the
key in the ignition switch and
turning it to MAR-ON.

BONNET
OPENING
Proceed as follows:
❒open the driver's door to gain access
to the bonnet release handle;
❒pull the lever fig. 119 in the direction
indicated by the arrow;
❒lift lever A fig. 120 as shown in the
figure;
❒lift the bonnet and, at the same time,
release the bonnet stay fig. 121 from
its locking device D, then insert the
end C fig. 122 of the bonnet stay into
the housing E.
IMPORTANT Before opening the
bonnet, check that the windscreen
wiper arms are not lifted from the
windscreen.CLOSING
Proceed as follows:
❒hold the bonnet up with one hand
and with the other remove the stay
C fig. 122 from the housing E and fit
it back in its locking device D fig.
121;
❒lower the bonnet to approximately 20

closed and not only fastened by the
locking device by trying to open it.
If it is not perfectly closed, do not try
to press the bonnet down but open
it and repeat the procedure.
IMPORTANT Always check that the
bonnet is closed correctly to
prevent it from opening while the
vehicle is travelling.

WARNING
45) For safety reasons, the bonnet
must always be perfectly closed
while travelling. Make sure that
the bonnet is perfectly closed and
that the lock is engaged. If you
notice when driving that the
bonnet has not been properly
locked, stop immediately
and close the bonnet correctly.
46) Incorrect positioning of the stay
rod may cause the bonnet to drop
suddenly.
47) Perform these operations only
when the vehicle is stationary.
ROOF RACK/SKI
RACK
To fit the roof/ski rack, with
provision for versions H1 and H2,
use the pins A provided on the
edges of the roof fig. 123.
Long wheelbase vehicles are
equipped with 8 pins; short or
medium wheelbase vehicles are
equipped with 6 pins; vehicles with
extra-long wheelbases are
equipped with 10 pins.
48) 49)
6) 7)
IMPORTANT Follow the instructions
contained in the assembly kit
carefully. Assembly must be
performed by qualified personnel.
WARNING
48) After travelling for a few
kilometres, check to ensure that
the fixing screws for the
attachments are well tightened.
49) Evenly distribute the load and
take into account, when driving,
the increased responsiveness
of the vehicle to side wind.
IMPORTANT
6) The size of the loads you
transport must strictly comply
with currently applicable
regulations.
7) Never exceed the maximum
permitted loads (see “Technical
specifications” section).

JUMP STARTING
89)
In the event of jump starting fig.
135 with a booster battery, never
connect the negative lead (-)
of the booster battery to the
negative pole C of the vehicle's
battery, but rather to an
engine/gearbox earth point (follow
the lead connection procedure
described in the "Jump starting"
paragraph in the chapter "In an
emergency").
IMPORTANT
18) If the climate comfort is to be
favoured, the Start&Stop system
can be deactivated, for a
continuous operation of the
climate control system.
WARNING
87) The vehicle should always be
evacuated after the key has been
removed or turned to the STOP
position. When refuelling, make
sure that the car is switched off
with the key in the STOP position.
88) If the battery needs to be
replaced, always contact a Fiat
Dealership. The replacement
battery should be of the same
type (L6 105Ah/850A) and should
have the same characteristics.
89) Before opening the bonnet,
make sure that the vehicle is
switched off and the key is in the
STOP position. Follow the
instructions on the label on the
front crossmember. It is advisable
to extract the key when there
are other people in the vehicle.
