THE FIAT CODE
SYSTEM
To further protect your vehicle from
attempted theft, it has been fitted with
an electronic engine immobiliser sys-
tem (called Fiat CODE) which is au-
tomatically activated when the ignition
key is removed. Each ignition key, in
fact, contains an electronic device,
which modulates a radio-frequency
signal emitted by a special aerial, built
into the ignition switch, during ignition.
The modulated signal is a “password”
with which the control unit recognis-
es the key. Engine ignition is enabled
only if the key is recognised by the sys-
tem.
