DEAD LOCK DEVICE

(for versions/markets, where provided)
This safety device prevents 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 dead lock device therefore offers

the best possible protection against

break in attempts. We recommend

engaging it whenever the vehicle is

parked and left unattended.

11

Activating the device

The system is automatically enabled
on all the doors by pressing button

twice on the key with remote control.

The direction indicators flash twice to

let you know that the device is active.

If one or more of the doors is not

perfectly shut, the dead lock device

will not be activated, thus preventing a

person getting into the vehicle through

the open door and, on shutting, it,

remaining stuck inside the passenger

compartment.

Deactivating the device

The system is disabled automatically on

every door when:

unlocking the doors;

by turning the ignition key to the

MAR position.

2) 3)

WARNING

1)

Button (B) should only be pressed when

the key is away from the body, in particular

from the eyes and from objects that can

be spoilt (e.g. clothes). Do not leave the

key unattended to avoid the button being

accidentally pressed while it is being

handled, e.g. by a child.

2)

Once the safe lock system is engaged

it is impossible to open the doors from

inside the vehicle. Before engaging the

system please therefore check that there is

no one left on board.

3)

If the remote control battery is flat, the

system can only be turned on by inserting

the metal key in the door lock: in this case,

the device remains active for the rear

doors only.

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.

IGNITION DEVICE

The key can be turned to 3 different

positions fig. 4:

STOP: engine off, key can be

extracted, steering locked. Some

electrical devices (e.g. sound system,

central door locking system, etc.) can

operate;

MAR: driving position. All electrical

devices are enabled;

AVV: engine starting (unstable

position).

4

F0V0006

The ignition device is fitted with an

electronic 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.

4) 5) 6) 7)

STEERING LOCK
Activation

When the key is at STOP, remove the

key and turn the steering wheel until it

locks.

Deactivation

Move the steering wheel slightly as you

turn the ignition key to MAR-ON

WARNING

4)

If the ignition device has been tampered

with (e.g. an attempted theft), have it

checked by a Fiat Dealership before driving

again.

KNOWING YOUR VEHICLE

12

5)

Always remove the key when you

leave your vehicle to prevent someone

from accidentally operating the controls.

Remember to engage the handbrake.

Engage first gear if the vehicle is parked

uphill or reverse gear if the vehicle is

parked downhill. Never leave children

unattended in the vehicle.

6)

Never extract the key while the vehicle

is moving. The steering wheel will

automatically lock as soon as it is turned.

This also applies to cases in which the

vehicle is towed.

7)

It is absolutely forbidden to carry

out any aftermarket operation involving

steering system or steering column

modifications (e.g. installation of anti-theft

device) that could adversely affect

performance, invalidate the warranty,

cause serious safety problems and

also result in the vehicle not meeting

type-approval requirements.

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 aerial

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)

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").

In this case, turn the key to STOP

and then back to MAR; if the lock

continues, try with the other keys

provided with the vehicle. Contact a

Fiat Dealership if you still cannot start

the engine.

WARNING 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.

Activation of

warning

light while driving

If the

warning light switches on,

this means that the system is running

a self-diagnosis (for example due to a

voltage drop).

If the

warning light stays on,

contact a Fiat Dealership.

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.
