WELCOME ABOARD Fiat Ulysse
4
Fiat Ulysse is a compact saloon with an original bodyline, designed to offer great driving satisfaction, ensure safe-
ty and be as friendly as possible to the environment.
Everything, from its new engines to its safety devices, from its improved comfort for driver and passengers alike
to its practical solutions, contributes to make you appreciate your Fiat Ulysse’s personality.
And you will realise it later when you discover that its driving style and performance goes hand in hand with
new manufacturing processes that help cut running costs.
The Fiat Ulysse, for example, no longer needs to be taken in for its first servicing after the traditional 1,500 km...
but after 30,000 km.
THE SIGNS TO HELP YOU DRIVE CORRECTLY
The signs you see on this page are very important. They highlight those parts of the handbook where, more than
anywhere else, you should stop for a minute and read carefully.
As you can see, each sign has a different symbol to make it immediately clear and easy to identify the subjects in
the different areas:

Personal safety.
Important. Total or partial failure to follow these instructions can place dri­ver, passengers or others in serious danger.
Environmental protection.
This shows you the correct proce­dures to follow to ensure the vehicle will not harm the environment.
The car’s wellbeing.
Important. Total or partial failure to follow these instructions will result in the risk of serious damage to the car and may invalidate the warranty as well.

THE FIAT CODE SYSTEM
To further protect your vehicle from attempted theft, it has been fitted with an electronic engine immobiliser sys­tem (called Fiat CODE) which is au­tomatically 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 recognis­es the key. Engine ignition is enabled only if the key is recognised by the sys­tem.
THE KEYS fig. 2
The following keys are supplied with
the car:
– two keys A if the car is fitted with remote central door locking system and electronic alarm.
– two keys B if the car is fitted with remote central door locking system, electronic alarm and powered side sliding doors.
The keys shall be used to:
– ignition switch;
– lock/unlock the driver and passen-
ger door
– operate remote door locking/un-
locking
– operate the alarm system (where
fitted)
– deactivate the passenger side airbag
– lock/unlock the fuel filler cap
– lock/unlock the glove compart-
ment.

The key fig. 3, is fitted with 2 but-
tons:
A - to activate the central locking system, the alarm and the localisation function;
B - to activate the central unlocking system and deactivate the alarm.
By pressing button A the so-called “localisation” function is turned on: all the passenger compartment lights and direction indicators are switched on for a couple of seconds. Such function is recognised by the system up to a distance of around 30 meters from the vehicle.
The key is also fitted with a metal in­sert D which can be pushed inside the key grip by pressing button C.
Press button C again to let it come out from the key grip.
When pressing the but­ton C, take care to pre­vent the metal insert
from causing harm or damage when it comes out. The button C 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). Make sure the key can never be touched by others, es­pecially children, who may inad­vertently press button C.

A CODE card fig. 5 is provided with the keys. This CODE card bears the electronic code used by the Fiat Dealerships whenever the vehicle cannot be started.
The key fig. 4 is fitted with 4 but-
tons:
A - to activate the central locking system, the alarm and the localisation function;
B - to activate the central unlocking system and deactivate the alarm;
C - to lock/unlock the right-hand side sliding door;
D - to lock/unlock the left-hand side sliding door.
By pressing button A the so-called “localisation” function is turned on: all the passenger compartment lights and direction indicators are switched on for a couple of seconds. Such function is recognised by the system up to a distance of around 30 meters from the vehicle.
The key is also fitted with a metal in­sert F which can be pushed inside the key grip by pressing button E.
The remote control inside the key
works on radio-frequency.
IMPORTANT In order to ensure perfect efficiency of the electronic de­vices contained inside the keys, they should never be exposed to direct sunlight.
When pressing the but­ton E, take care to pre­vent the metal insert
from causing harm or damage when it comes out. The button E 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). Make sure the key can never be touched by others, especially children, who may in­advertently press button E.
The electronic compo­nents inside the key may get damaged if the key is
submitted to sharp knocks.

REPLACING THE KEY BATTERIES fig. 6-7
If the doors do not lock and the di­rection indicators do not come on when the button on the remote con­trol is pressed, replace the batteries with others of the same time:
– open the metal insert;
– open the plastic casing A by forc­ing recess B;
– remove the printed circuit C with the battery;
– extract the battery D and replace it respecting the polarity;
– refit the printed circuit C with the battery facing inwards;
– close the plastic casing A.
Since the electronic alarm absorbs electricity, if you will not be using the vehicle for more than a month, you are advised to switch the system off with the remote control. This will pre­vent the battery from going flat.
All the keys and the CODE card must be handed over to the new
owner when selling the car.
fig. 5
F0B0404b
This code is masked by a special paint, which should be removed when the CODE card is used. The CODE card should therefore be kept in a safe place and not in the vehicle.
Used batteries pollute the environment. Dispose of them in the special
containers as specified by current legislation or take them to your nearest Fiat Dealership, which will deal with their disposal. Do not expose them to naked flames and high temperatures. Keep out of children’s reach.

DUPLICATE KEYS
Go directly to your Fiat Dealer-
ship, taking all the keys in your pos-
session and the CODE card with you.
The codes of any keys that are not available when the new storage pro­cedure is carried out will be deleted from the memory to prevent any lost or stolen keys being used to start the engine.
All the keys and the CODE card must be handed over to the new own­er when selling the car.
OPERATION
When the ignition switch is turned to S the Fiat CODE system deacti­vates the engine control unit functions.
After the engine is started by turning the key to M, the Fiat CODE system control unit sends the code for the function lock deactivation to the en­gine control unit. The crypted and varying code is sent only if the system control unit has recognised the code sent by the electronic device con­tained in each ignition key, through the signal emitted by a special aerial built into the ignition switch.
If the code is not recognised, you are recommended to turn the key to S and then again to M; if the lock cannot be deactivated, repeat the operation with the other key provided with the vehicle.
If you are still not able to start the
engine contact a Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT Each key supplied with the vehicle has its own code which is different from all the others and which must be stored in the mem­ory of the system control unit. Con­tact a Fiat Dealership for the new key storage procedure, taking with you the CODE card, a personal iden­tity document and the vehicle owner­ship documents.
The codes of any keys that are not available when the new storage
procedure is carried out will be deleted from the memory when all the keys are stored again, in order to prevent any mislaid keys being used to start the vehicle.

ELECTRONIC ALARM (where fitted)
The vehicle is equipped with an elec­tronic alarm with perimeter (external) protection and volumetric (internal) protection. To switch on the alarm, press the button A-fig. 8 on the re­mote control.
This will be accompanied by the di­rection indicator flashing and then the red led on the dashboard A-fig. 9 flashing.
Door locking by turning the key does not activate the alarm.
When the alarm is triggered
The siren comes on, the direction in­dicators and the headlights flash for about 30 seconds when:
– - the doors, bonnet, boot or sun­roof (where provided) are opened;
– a variation in the volume inside the vehicle is experienced (do not leave the windows open or animals inside the ve­hicle when the alarm is switched on);
– if an attempt is made to neutralise the alarm system without the remote control.
Switching the alarm system off
To switch the alarm system off, press button B-fig. 8 on the remote con­trol.
The direction indicators will flash rapidly for about 2 seconds.
If the alarm system has triggered, led A-fig. 9 will flash rapidly.

Switching the volumetric protection off
Before turning on the alarm system, press button A-fig. 10, which can be reached when the door is open, and red led A-fig. 9, placed on the instru­ment panel, will light up.
In this case only the perimeter pro­tection (external) system will be ac­tive.
Press the button A-fig. 9 again to re­turn to the normal external and in­ternal protection mode.
Deactivation without the remote control
Proceed as follows:
– open the door with the key (the
siren will come on);
– within 10 seconds, from when the siren sounds, turn the ignition key to M and then press button A-fig. 10. The siren will be switched off.
If it is necessary to repeat the oper­ation, wait for the siren to come on.
PROGRAMMING THE SYSTEM
When your new vehicle is handed over to you the electronic alarm will have already been programmed by your Fiat Dealership. Any subse­quent programming should also be carried out by a Fiat Dealership.
REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL REMOTE CONTROLS
If you ever need a new remote con­trol, go to your nearest Fiat Deal- ership, taking with you all the vehi­cle keys in your possession, the CODE card, a personal identity document and the vehicle ownership documents.

IGNITION SWITCH
fig. 11
The key can turn through 4 different
positions:
S - engine off, key can be removed
and the steering column is locked;
M - drive position;
D - starting the engine.
When you get out of the vehicle, always remove the ignition key. This will
prevent anyone from accidental­ly working controls. Remember to apply the handbrake and, if the vehicle is pointing uphill, first gear. Put the vehicle into reverse if it is pointing downhill. Never leave children in the vehicle by themselves.
STEERING COLUMN LOCK
To engage the lock: when the ig-
nition switch is in position S, remove the ignition key and turn the steering wheel until it locks.
To release the lock: move the steering wheel slightly as you turn the ignition key to M.
Never remove the igni­tion key while the vehicle is moving. The steering
wheel would automatically lock as soon as you tried to turn it. This always applies, even when the vehicle is being towed.
fig. 11
F0B0406b
If the ignition switch has been tampered with (e.g. someone has tried to
steal your vehicle), get a Fiat Dealership to check it over be­fore you start driving again.
It is absolutely forbidden to carry out whatever af­ter-market operation in-
volving steering system or steer­ing column modifications (e.g.: in­stallation of anti-theft Device) that could badly affect perfor­mance and safety, cause the lapse of warranty and also result in non-compliance of the car with homologation requirements.
