SYMBOLS  
THE FIAT CODE  
SYSTEM  
The following keys are provided with  
the vehicle:  
Special coloured labels have been at-  
tached near or actually on some of the  
components of your Fiat Doblò. These  
labels bear symbols that remind you of  
the precautions to be taken as regards  
that particular component.  
To further protect your vehicle from  
theft, it has been fitted with an engine  
immobilising system (Fiat CODE sys-  
tem) which is automatically activated  
when the ignition key is removed.  
– two keys A when the vehicle is not  
equipped with remote control;  
– key A and key B when the vehicle  
is equipped with door lock remote  
control.  
Plate A-fig. 1 summarising the sym-  
bols used can be found under the bon-  
net.  
An electronic device, in fact, is fitted  
in each ignition key grip. The device  
transmits a radio-frequency signal  
when the engine is started through a  
special aerial built into the ignition  
switch. The modulate signal, which  
changes each time the engine is start-  
ed, is the password by means of which  
the control unit recognises the key  
and enables to start the engine.  
– Key A is the key that is used nor-  
mally. It will:  
– start the engine;  
– lock/unlock front doors;

given to the Fiat Dealership when  
ordering duplicate keys.  
mains immobilised, try with the oth-  
er key provided.  
– lock/unlock the side doors, Cargo  
versions only;  
If you are still unable to start the en-  
gine, use the emergency starting pro-  
cedure (see “In an emergency”) and  
take your vehicle to the nearest Fiat  
Dealership.  
Keep the CODE card in a safe place.  
– deactivate the passenger’s airbag.  
Make sure you have the electronic  
code of the CODE card with you at all  
times in the event you have to per-  
form an emergency start-up.  
The key B, with a built-in remote  
control, has the same functions as key  
A in vehicles with door lock remote  
control.  
When the vehicle is travelling and the  
key is at MAR:  
OPERATION  
1) if the warning light ¢ (Y) comes  
on while the vehicle is moving, this  
means that the system is running a self-  
test (e.g. due to a voltage drop).  
The CODE card fig. 3 is also sup-  
plied with the keys and bears the fol-  
lowing:  
Each time the ignition key is turned  
to STOP, or PARK, the protection  
system will automatically immobilise  
the engine.  
a - the electronic code to be used for  
emergency starting (see “Emergency  
start-up” in section “In an emer-  
gency”);  
2) if the warning light ¢ (Y) flash-  
es, the vehicle is not protected by the  
engine immobiliser. Contact a Fiat  
Dealership immediately and get them  
to store the codes of all the keys in the  
memory.  
When the key is turned to MAR to  
start the engine:  
1) if the code is recognised the ¢  
(Y) warning light on the instrument  
panel will flash briefly; this means the  
protection system has recognised the  
key code and deactivates the immo-  
biliser, turn the key to AVV, and the  
engine will start.  
IMPORTANT The electronic com-  
ponents inside the key may be dam-  
aged if the key is subjected to sharp  
knocks.  
IMPORTANT Each key provided  
with the vehicle has its own code, dif-  
ferent from all the others, which must  
be stored in the memory of the sys-  
tem control unit.  
2) If the warning light ¢ (Y) stays  
on, the code was not recognised. In  
this case, turn the key to STOP and  
then back to MAR. If the engine re-
