To switch the function off, simply turn the

the required temperature.
❒LOfunction (maximum cooling):
select by turning the temperature knob
anticlockwise under the minimum value
(16 °C).
This function may be used to cool down
the passenger compartment exploiting the
system potential to the maximum. In this
condition, the system stop controlling
temperature automatically and sets air
mixing to maximum cooling. The air speed
and distribution are fixed. All manual set-
tings will be allowed when this function
is on.
To switch the function off, simply turn the
temperature knob anticlockwise and set
the required temperature.Air distribution buttons (B)
Press these buttons to manually set one
of the seven air distribution settings:▲Air flow to the windscreen and front
side window vents to demist or de-
frost them.
˙Air flow at central and side dashboard
vents to ventilate the chest and the
face during the hot season.
▼Air flow to the front and rear foot well
vents. Thanks to the natural tenden-
cy of hot air to spread upwards, this
distribution pattern allows to warm
the passenger compartment up as
quickly as possible, providing an im-
mediate feeling of warmth.
˙
▼Air flow distributed between foot well
vents (hotter air) and central and side
dashboard vents (cooler air). This dis-
tribution is particularly useful in spring
and autumn on a sunny day.
▲
▼Air flow distributed between foot well
vents and windscreen and front side
window defrosting/demisting vents.
This allows an adequate warming of
the passenger compartment and pre-
vents the windows from misting up.
▲
˙Air flow distributed between wind-
screen and front side window de-
froster/demister and central and side
dashboard vents. This distribution al-
lows to maintain good levels of com-
fort and the passenger compartment
adequately cool (summer).

▼Air flow distributed between wind-
screen and front side window de-
froster/demister and central and side

lows adequate air diffusion and main-
tains a good level of comfort both in
summer and winter.
The set distribution is shown by the cor-
responding LEDs on the selected buttons.
To restore automatic air distribution con-
trol after a manual adjustment, press but-
ton AUTO.

Fan speed adjusting buttons (H)
Press button Hto increase or to decrease
the fan speed and therefore the amount
of air admitted into the passenger com-
partment, although keeping the required
temperature set.
The fan speed is shown by the lit bars on
the display:
❒max fan speed = all bars lit;
❒min fan speed = one bar lit.
The fan can be cut off only if the climate
control compressor has been switched
off pressing button F-fig. 40.
IMPORTANT To restore automatic fan
speed control after a manual adjustment,
press button AUTO.
IMPORTANT At high speeds, the dynamic
effect may increase the flow of air into the
passenger compartment which in this case
will not directly correspond to the fan
speed bar display.AUTO (A) (automatic operation)
Press AUTO to make the system auto-
matically adjust the quantity and distribu-
tion of the air introduced into the pas-
senger compartment. All previous manu-
al settings will be cancelled.
The message FULL AUTOwill appear
on the front display in this condition.
By manually intervening on at least of the
functions automatically managed by the
system (air recirculation, fan speed or
compressor on/off), the word FULL will
disappear from the display indicating that
the system is no longer automatically con-
trolling all the functions (the temperature
will still be controlled automatically by the
system).
IMPORTANT Should the system (after
manual settings) be no longer able to
guarantee the required temperature set
in the passenger compartment, the set
temperature value will start flashing to in-
dicate this condition, after one minute the
AUTOmessage will turn off.
To restore system automatic control at
any time, after one or more manual ad-
justments, press button AUTO.Air recirculation on/off button (G)
Air recirculation works according to the
following operating logics:
❒override on (inside air recirculation
always on), indicated by the the LED
on button Gand symbol Ton
the display;
❒override off (air recirculation always
off and introduction of external air),
indicated by the fact that the LED on
the button is off êis on the display.
These operating conditions are obtained
by pressing Gin sequence.
IMPORTANT The inside air recircula-
tion system makes it possible to reach
the required heating or cooling condi-
tions faster.
It is however inadvisable to use it on
rainy/cold days as it would considerably
increase the possibility of the windows
misting inside, especially if the climate
control compressor is off.
Recirculation is forced off (i.e. air is
introduced from the outside) when the
the outside temperature is cold to pre-
vent misting up.
It is advisable not to use the air recircu-
lation function when the outside tem-
perature is low to prevent the windows
from rapidly misting up.

Climate control compressor
enabling button (F)
Press √to switch the climate control
compressor off (if on). The icon on the
display will go out.
Press the button when the LED is off to
restore automatically system control
and use of the compressor. The icon
will light up on the display in this case.
The system will switch recirculation off
when the compressor is switched off to
prevent misting up. Although the system
is capable of maintaining the required tem-
perature, the word FULLwill disappear
from the display. If on the other hand the
system cannot maintain the required tem-
perature, the digits will blink and the word
AUTOwill disappear.IMPORTANT With the compressor off,
it is not possible to introduced air cooler
than ambient temperature into the pas-
senger compartment. Furthermore, in
certain conditions, the windows could
mist up rapidly because the air is not de-
humidified.The switching off of the climate
control compressor remains in storage
even when the engine has been stopped.
To restore automatic compressor control,
press √again (in this case, the system will
only work as a heater) or press AUTO.
With climate control compressor off, the
fan speed can be set to zero manually (no
bar shown).
With the compressor enabled and the en-
gine started, the fan speed may be reduced
to the minimum setting (only one bar
shown).Fast window demisting/defrosting
button (D)
Press this button: the climate control sys-
tem will automatically switch on all the
functions required for fast windscreen and
front side window demisting/defrosting,
that is:
❒switches on climate control compres-
sor when climatic conditions are suit-
able;
❒air recirculation off;
❒maximum air temperature HI on both
areas;
❒operates proper fan speed according
to engine coolant temperature to lim-
it the flow into the passenger com-
partment of air not warm enough to
demist the windows;
❒directs air flow to windscreen and
front side windows vents;
❒heated rear window on.

screen. In such conditions, the
windscreen wiper may be subjected to
excessive stress and the motor protec-
tion which prevents operation for a few
seconds may trip. If operation is not re-
stored, even after turning the key and
restarting the engine, go to a Fiat Deal-
ership.
With the ring in position
≤the wind-
screen wiper will automatically adapt to
the speed of the car.IMPORTANT Replace wiper blades as
specified in section “Car maintenance”.
