THE SYSTEM
During the winter, the climate con-
trol system must be turned on at least
once a month for about ten minutes.

before the summer at a Fiat Deal-
ership.STEERING COLUMN
STALKS
LEFT-HAND STALK
The left-hand stalk operates most of
the external lights.

switched on when the ignition key is

the heating/ventilation (or climate con-
trol system) controls and the cigar
lighter ring will come on with the ex-
ternal lights.

will not pollute the envi-
ronment in the event of leakage.
Under no circumstances should
R12 fluid be used as it is incom-
patible with the system compo-
nents and contains CFC.

When using the boot,
make sure the load you
are carrying does not ex-
ceed the permitted weight (see
“Technical specifications”). Also
ensure the items in the boot are
arranged properly to prevent
them being thrown forwards and
injuring passengers should you
brake sharply. Do not travel with
the tailgate open: exhaust gas
could filter into the passenger
compartment.
If you are travelling in
areas where refuelling
can be difficult and you
want to carry a can of petrol, fol-
low the law in force. Use a ho-
mologated can and secure it ad-
equately. Even given these pre-
cautions, the risk of fire in the
event of an accident is increased.
Do not use the key as a
handle to open the tail-
gate. You could damage it.

To open the tailgate from the out-
side, turn the ignition key in lock
fig. 118and pull handle Ain the di-
rection of the arrow.
The opening of the boot is made eas-
ier by the gas-filed struts on each side.
IMPORTANTFit the key well into
the lock before turning it.
You will be able to open the tailgate
with the key only if you remove the
key from the lock after turning it by 45
degrees.
To close, lower the tailgate until the
lock clicks.
CENTRAL DOOR LOCKING
SYSTEM
From the outside
With the doors closed, fit and turn

elling at night with a rather heavy load
in the boot (see “Headlights” in this
chapter).
Make sure the load does not exceed
the values shown in “Weights” para-
graph, “Technical specifications” chap-
ter for correct operation of the head-
light adjustment device.
Do not knock the tailgate
into objects on the roof
rack when you open it.
