THE FIAT CODE SYSTEM

This is an electrical engine locking sys-
tem which increases protection against
an attempted theft of the car. It is auto-
matically activated when the ignition key
is extracted.
Each key contains an electronic device
which modulates the signal emitted dur-
ing ignition by an antenna built into the
F0M0005m
ignition device. This signal is the 'pass-
word' which changes at each ignition and
which the control unit uses to recognise
the key and enable ignition.
