During operation of the air conditioner,
you may notice slight changes in engine
speed. These changes are normal, the sys-
tem is designed so that the compressor
turns on or off to maintain the desired
temperature.
Less operation of the compressor results
in better fuel economy.
SYSTEM OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
Natural ventilation
Select “VENTILATION” and “FRESH
AIR”, the temperature selector to the de-
sired temperature position, and the blow-
er speed selector to “OFF”. Fresh air will
flow through the vehicle during driving.
Forced ventilation
The control settings are the same as for
natural ventilation except you set the
blower speed selector to a position oth-
er than “OFF”.Normal heating (using outside air)
Select “HEAT” and “FRESH AIR”, the
temperature selector to the desired tem-
perature position and the blower speed
selector to the desired blower speed po-
sition. Setting the blower speed selector
to a higher blower speed position in-
creases heating efficiency.
Quick heating
(using recirculated air)
The control settings are the same as for
normal heating except you select “RE-
CIRCULATED AIR”. If you use this heat-
ing method for an extended period of
time, the air in the vehicle can become
contaminated and the windows can be-
come misty. Therefore, use this method
only for quick heating and change to the
normal heating method as soon as possi-
ble. Recirculated Air (g)
When this mode is selected, the indicator
light will come on, outside air is shut out
and inside air is recirculated. This mode is
suitable when driving through dusty or
polluted air such as in a tunnel, or when
attempting to quickly cool down the in-
terior.
“FRESH AIR” and “RECIRCULATED AIR”
are switched alternately each time the air
intake selector is pushed.
NOTE If you select “RECIRCULATED
AIR” for an extended period of time, the
air in the vehicle can become contami-
nated. Therefore, you should occasional-
ly select “FRESH AIR”.
Air conditioning switch (5)
To turn on the air conditioning system,
push in the “A/C” switch and set the blow-
er speed selector to a position other than
“OFF”. With this “A/ C” switch operation,
a indicator light will come on when the air
conditioning system is on. To turn off the
air conditioning system, push the “A/C”
switch again.

NOTE Your vehicle uses the air condi-
tioning refrigerant HFC-134a, commonly
called “R-134a”. R-134a replaced R-12
around 1993 for automotive applications.
Other refrigerants are available, including
recycled R-12, but only R-134a should be
used in your vehicle.
IMPORTANT Using the wrong refriger-
ant may damage your air conditioning sys-
tem. Use R-134a only. Do not mix or re-
place the R-134a with other refrigerants.AUTOMATIC HEATING

DESCRIPTION OF CONTROLS
Temperature selector/ Air
conditioning switch (1)
This is used to select the temperature by
turning the selector.
Also, this is used to turn on and off the
air conditioning system by pushing the
switch. To turn on the air conditioning
system, push in the switch and the indi-
cator light will come on. To turn off the
air conditioning system, push in the
switch again and the indicator light will
go off. MAINTENANCE
If you do not use the air conditioner for
a long period, such as during winter, it may
not give the best performance when you
start using it again. To help maintain op-
timum performance and durability of your
air conditioner, it needs to be run peri-
odically. Operate the air conditioner at
least once a month for one minute with
the engine idling. This circulates the re-
frigerant and oil and helps protect the in-
ternal components.
Your air conditioner is equipped with air
filters. Clean or replace them as specified
in the “Maintenance Schedule” in the “IN-
SPECTION AND MAINTENANCE” sec-
tion. Have this job done by your Fiat Deal-
ership as the lower glove box must be
lowered for this job.
