Entering The Password; Code Card - Fiat 500 Manual

Entering the password

When the car radio is turned on, in the
case of a code request, the message
"CODE" will appear on the display for ap-
proximately 2 seconds, followed by four
dashes "----".
The password is made up of four numbers
from 1 to 6, each corresponding to one of
the dashes.
To enter the first code number, press the
button corresponding to the preset sta-
tions (from 1 to 6). Enter the other code
numbers in the same way.
If the four numbers are not entered with-
in 20 seconds, the message "CODE" will
appear again on the display for 2 seconds,
followed by four dashes "——". If this oc-
curs, it is not considered an incorrect
code entry.
After the fourth number is entered (with-
in 20 seconds), the car radio will start to
function.
If an incorrect code is entered, the car ra-
dio will emit an acoustic signal and the
message "CODE" will appear on the dis-
play for 2 seconds, followed by four dash-
es "----" to prompt the user to enter the
correct code.
Each time an incorrect code is entered,
the wait time will increase progressively
(1 min, 2 min, 4 min, 8 min, 16 min, 30
min,1h, 2h, 4h, 8h, 16h, 24h) until a max-
imum time of 24 h is reached. The wait
time will be shown on the display with the
message "WAIT". After the message dis-
appears, the procedure of entering the
code may be started again.
