VEHICLE
MODIFICATIONS/
ALTERATIONS
IMPORTANT Any change or alteration
of the vehicle might seriously affect
its safety and road holding, thus
causing accidents, in which the
occupants could even be fatally injured.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 key is removed from the ignition
device.
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 toMAR-ON, the Fiat
CODE system control unit sends a
recognition code to the Powertrain
Control Module to deactivate the
immobiliser.The 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 engine
control module.
Irregular operation
If the code has not been recognised
correctly during starting, the
warning light on the instrument
panel turns on accompanied by the
corresponding message on the display
(see the “Warning lights and messages”
chapter).
In this case, turn the key toSTOPand
then back toMAR; if the lock
continues, try with the other keys
provided 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. Contact a Fiat
Dealership to have new keys (up to 8)
stored with a code.

WARNING
29)As the driver's exterior mirror is curved,
it may slightly alter the perception of
distance of the reflected image. Further,
the reflective surface of the lower part
of the exterior mirrors is parabolic to
increase the field of view. The reflected
image size is thus reduced and gives the
impression that the reflected item is further
away than it actually is.
30)When driving the mirrors should always
remain in position 1.
EXTERIOR LIGHTS
IN BRIEF
The left stalk includes the controls for
the exterior lights.
Theexterior lights can only be
switched on when the ignition key is
in the ON position.
LIGHTS OFF
Ring turned to theOfig. 50 position.DAYTIME RUNNING
LIGHTS (DRL)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
With the key in MAR position and
the ring turned to theOposition fig. 50,
the daytime lights turn on automatically;
the other lights and the internal lighting
remain off. The automatic operation
of the daytime running lights can be
activated/deactivated, for versions/
markets where provided, via the display
menu (see "Display" in the "Knowing
the instrument panel" chapter).
If the daytime running lights are
deactivated, no light comes on when
the ring nut is turned toO.

DIPPED HEADLIGHTS/
SIDE LIGHTS
With the ignition key turned to
MAR-ON, turn the ring nut to
fig.
51.
If dipped headlights are activated, the
daytime running lights switch off and
the side lights and dipped headlights
switch on.
The
warning light switches on in

Thewarning light will come on in
the instrument panel.
MAIN BEAM HEADLIGHTS
With the ring in the
position, pull the
stalk towards the steering wheel (2nd
unstable position) fig. 52.
The
warning light switches on in
the instrument panel.
To turn the main beams off, pull the
stalk towards the steering wheel again
(dipped beams will come back on).FLASHING THE
HEADLIGHTS
Pull the stalk towards the steering
wheel (1st unstable position) fig. 53
regardless of the position of the ring.
The
warning light switches on
in the instrument panel.
AUTOMATIC MAIN BEAM
HEADLIGHTS
In order not to dazzle other road users,
the main beam headlights are
automatically turned off when
approaching oncoming vehicles or
when following a vehicle travelling in the
same direction.
The system is enabled through the
menu item and by rotating the light
selector to the
position.When the main beam headlights are
turned on for the first time by pulling the
stalk, the function is enabled and the
icon is displayed; if the main beam
headlights are actually on, the
corresponding blue warning light
is
displayed as well.
If the driving speed is over 40 km/h and
the function is activated, pulling the
stalk again to the main beam headlight
position deactivates the function.
If the driving speed is below 15 km/h
and the function is activated, the
function switches the main beam
headlights off. Pulling the stalk again to
the main beam headlight position is
interpreted as a request for the main
beam headlights to stay on, therefore
the blue warning light
on the
dashboard turns on and the main beam
headlights stay on until the speed
exceeds 40 km/h again. The function is
enabled again automatically when 40
km/h is exceeded
.
If the stalk is pulled again in this
condition, to request main beam
headlight deactivation, the function
remains off and the main beam
headlights switch off.
Rotate the ring to the
position fig.
51 to disable the automatic function.

AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHT
SENSOR (dusk sensor)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
It detects variations in brightness
outside the vehicle depending on the

the sensitivity, the less outside light
needed to activate the exterior lights.
The sensitivity of the dusk sensor is
adjusted by means of the "Setup
menu" of the display.

Activation
Turn the ring to the
position fig. 56:
this turns the side lights and the dipped
beam headlights on simultaneously
and automatically depending on the
exterior brightness.
Deactivation
The main beam headlights will go out
followed by the side lights after
approximately 10 seconds, when the
sensor is deactivated.
The sensor is not capable of detecting
the presence of fog. Therefore, in
these circumstances, the lights have to
be turned on manually.WARNING
31)The daytime running lights are an
alternative to the dipped beam headlights
for driving during the daytime in countries
where it is compulsory to have lights on
during the day, and they are also permitted
in those countries where this is not
obligatory. 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.
32)The system is based on recognition via
a camera. Particular environmental
conditions may affect the correct
recognition of traffic conditions. Therefore,
the driver is always responsible for the
correct use of the main beam headlights in
compliance with the laws in force. Rotate
the ring to the
position fig. 51to
disable the automatic function.
33)If the camera loses its position due to a
load variation, the system may not work
temporarily to allow the camera to perform
an auto-calibration.
HEADLIGHTS
LIGHT BEAM ALIGNMENT
The correct alignment of the headlights
is essential for the comfort and safety
of the driver and other road users.
