FIAT CODE
SYSTEM
The Fiat Code system is an electrical
engine immobiliser system which
increases protection against attempted
car theft. It is automatically activated
when the ignition key is removed.
Each time the vehicle is started by
turning the ignition key to MAR, the Fiat
CODE system control unit sends a
recognition code to the engine control
module to deactivate the immobiliser.
If, during ignition, the code is not
correctly recognized, a warning light
is lit on 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 car.
Contact a Fiat Dealership if you still
cannot start the engine.
NOTE Each key has its own code
which must be stored by the control
unit of the system.
Contact a Fiat Dealership to have new
keys (up to 8) stored with a code.
IGNITION
DEVICE
The key can be turned to three
different positions fig. 10:
❒ STOP: engine stopped, key can be
removed, steering column locked.
Some electrical devices (e.g. audio
system, central door locking
system, etc.) can operate;
❒ MAR: driving position.
All electrical devices are enabled;
❒ AVV: engine starting.
The ignition device is fitted with a
safety system that requires the ignition
key to be turned back to STOP if the
engine does not start, before the
starting operation can be repeated.
