KEYS
KEYS
1)
A code number is stamped on the plate
attached to the key set; detach this
plate and store it in a safe place (not in
the vehicle) for use if you need to make
a replacement key (auxiliary key).
Also write down the code number and
keep it in a separate safe and
convenient place, but not in the vehicle.
If your key (auxiliary key) is lost, consult
Abarth Dealership and have your code
number ready (1 fig. 2 = auxiliary key /2
= transmitter/3 = key code number
plate).
IMPORTANT Always keep a spare key
in case one is lost. If a key is lost, go to
an Abarth Dealership as soon as
possible.
IMPORTANT The driver must carry the
key to ensure the system functions
properly.
KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM
This system uses the key buttons to
remotely lock and unlock the doors and
the boot lid, fuel-filler flap, and opens
the boot lid.
The system can start the engine without
having to take the key out of your purse
or pocket.
Note
The keyless entry system operation
may vary due to local conditions.
The keyless entry system is fully
operational (door/boot lid/fuel-filler flap
lock/unlock) when the ignition is
switched off. The system does not
operate if the ignition is switched to any
position other than off.
If the key does not operate when
pressing a button or the operational
range becomes too small, the battery
may be dead.
Battery life is about one year.
Replace the battery with a new one if
the
warning light (green) flashes in
the instrument cluster. Replacing thebattery about once a year is
recommended because the warning
light/indicator light may not illuminate or
flash depending on the rate of battery
depletion.
Additional keys can be obtained at
Abarth Dealership. Up to 6 keys can be
used with the keyless functions per
vehicle. Bring all keys to Abarth
Dealership when additional keys are
required.

1)
If the buttons on the transmitter are
inoperable and the operation indicator
light does not flash, the battery may be
dead.
Replace with a new battery
(CR2025 type) before the transmitter
becomes unusable.
The following conditions indicate that
the battery power is low:
indicator light (green) flashes in
the instrument cluster for about
30 seconds after the engine is turned
off;
the system does not operate and the
operation indicator light on the
transmitter does not flash when the
buttons are pressed;
the system's operational range is
reduced.
NOTE Replacing the battery at an
Abarth Dealership is recommended to
prevent damage to the key. If replacing
the battery by yourself, follow the
instruction below.
WARNING
1)Do not leave the key in your vehicle with
children and keep them in a place where
your children will not find or play with them:
leaving children in a vehicle with the key is
dangerous. This could result in someone
being badly injured or even killed. Children
may find these keys to be an interesting toy
to play with and could cause the power
windows or other controls to operate, or
even make the vehicle move.
2)There is the danger of explosion if the
battery is not correctly replaced.
IMPORTANT
1)The electronic components inside the
key may be damaged if the key is subjected
to strong shocks. In order to ensure
complete efficiency of the electronic
devices inside the key, it should never be
exposed to direct sunlight.
2)Make sure the battery is installed
correctly. Battery leakage could occur if it is
not installed correctly.3)When replacing the battery, be careful
not to touch any of the internal circuitry and
electrical terminals, bend the electrical
terminals, or get dirt in the transmitter as
the transmitter could be damaged.
4)Dispose of used batteries according to
the following instructions: insulate the plus
and minus terminals of the battery using
cellophane or equivalent tape. Never
disassemble. Never throw the battery into
fire or water. Never deform or crush.
5)Replace only with the same type battery
(CR2025 or equivalent).
IMPORTANT
1)Used batteries may be harmful to the
environment if not disposed of correctly.
They must be disposed of as specified by
law in the special containers or taken to an
Abarth Dealership, which will take care of
their disposal.

The advanced keyless function allows
you to lock/unlock the door and the
boot lid, fuel filler flap, or open the boot
lid while carrying the key.
IMPORTANT Radio waves from the key
may affect medical devices such as
pacemakers: before using the key near
people who use medical devices, ask
the medical device manufacturer or
your physician if radio waves from the
key will affect the device.
IMPORTANT The advanced keyless
entry system functions can be
deactivated to prevent any possible
adverse effect on a user wearing a
pacemaker or other medical device. If
the system is deactivated, you will be
unable to start the engine by carrying
the key. Contact an Abarth Dealership
for details. If the advanced keyless
entry system has been deactivated, you
can start the engine by following the
procedure indicated when the key
battery goes dead.
IMPORTANT
6)The operation of the recognition system
depends on various factors, such as, for
example, any electromagnetic wave
interference from external sources (e.g.
mobile phones), the charge of the battery in
the electronic key and the presence of
metal objects near the key or the vehicle. In
these cases it is still possible to unlock the
doors by using the metal insert in the
electronic key (see description on the
following pages).

TURN SIGNALS
The ignition must be switched ON to
use the turn and lane-change signals.
Move the signal lever down (for a left
turn) or up (for a right turn) to the stop
position. The signal will self-cancel after
the turn is completed.
If the indicator light continues to flash
after a turn, manually return the lever to
its original position.
The turn signal indicators (green)
in the instrument cluster flash
according to the operation of the turn
signal lever to show which signal is
working.
If an indicator light stays on without
flashing or if it flashes abnormally, one
of the turn signal bulbs may be burned
out.
LANE CHANGE SIGNALS
Move the lever halfway toward the
direction of the lane change (until the
indicator flashes) and hold it there. It will
return to the off position when released.
Three-flash turn signal
After releasing the turn signal lever, the
turn signal indicator flashes three times.
The operation can be cancelled by
moving the lever in the direction
opposite to which it was operated.
Adaptive Front Lighting
System (AFS)
(where provided)
The adaptive front lighting system (AFS)
automatically adjusts the headlight
beams to the left or right in conjunction
with the operation of the steering wheel
after the headlights have been turned
on.
A system malfunction or operation
conditions are indicated by a warning.
Refer to “Warning lights on instrument
panel” paragraph in “Knowing the
instrument panel” chapter.
NOTE
Headlights are equipped which do
not blind drivers approaching in the
opposite direction no matter what side
of the road you must drive your vehicle
(left-hand or right-hand traffic).
Therefore, it is not necessary to adjust
the optical axis of the headlights when
switching temporarily to driving on the
opposite side of the road (left-hand or
right-hand traffic).
The Adaptive Front Lighting System
(AFS) function can be switched to
operable/ inoperable using the
personalisation function. Refer to
“Personalisation features” paragraph in
“Knowing the instrument panel”
chapter.
WARNING
40)The daytime running lights are an
alternative to the dipped beam headlights
for driving in countries where it is
compulsory to have lights on during the
day; where it is not compulsory, the use of
daytime running lights is permitted.
41)Daytime running lights cannot replace
dipped beam headlights when driving at
night or through tunnels. The use of
daytime running lights is governed by the
highway code of the country in which you
are driving. Comply with legal
requirements.
