After demisting/defrosting, operate the
controls to keep the required comfort.
IMPORTANT The climate control system
is very useful to speed up demisting since
it dehumidifies the air. Set controls to
demisting function and switch on the cli-
mate control system by pressing button
E; the knob led will turn on.
Window demisting
In the event of considerable outside mois-
ture and/or rain and/or considerable dif-
ferences in temperature inside and outside
the passenger compartment, perform the
following preventive demisting procedure:
❒turn slider Ato red section;
❒turn air recirculation off by turning
knob Dto
Ú;
❒turn slider Cto -or to ®if the
windows do not demist;
❒turn knob Bto 2nd speed.

IMPORTANT The climate control system
is very useful to prevent window misting
up in presence of high humidity since it de-
humidifies the air.

DEMISTING/DEFROSTING
(where provided) fig. 50
Press button Ato start this function;
when this function is on the button led is
on.
This function is timed and switches off au-
tomatically after 20 minutes. To cut out
this function press again button A.
IMPORTANT Do not apply stickers on
the inside of the rear window over the
heating filaments to avoid damage that
might cause it to stop working properly.AIR RECIRCULATION
Turn knob Dto
Ò.
This function is particularly useful when
the outside air is heavily polluted (in a traf-
fic jam, tunnel etc.). However, it is better
not to use it for long periods, especially
if there several people in the vehicle.
IMPORTANT The inside air recirculation
system makes it possible (according to the
selected operating modes) to reach the
required “heating” or “cooling” conditions
faster.
Do not use the air recirculation function
on rainy/cold days as it would consider-
ably increase the possibility of the win-
dows misting inside.

Air temperature

Turning the knob
clockwise or counter-clockwise,
respectively raises or lowers the
temperature of the air required in the
passenger compartment.
Set temperature is shown on the
display.
Turning the knob fully clockwise or
counter-clockwise until it reaches the ex-
treme selections HI or LO, the maximum
heating or cooling functions are respec-
tively engaged:
❒HI function (highest heating power):
this is turned on by rotating the temper-
ature knob clockwise and passing the max.
temperature value (32 °C).
This function can be engaged when re-
quiring to heat the passenger compart-
ment as quickly as possible, exploiting the
maximum potential of the system. Under
these conditions, the system is no longer
controlled by the automatic temperature
adjustment system and sets air mixing to
maximum heating by modulating speed
and air distribution.
More particularly, max. fan speed will not
be immediately engaged if coolant is not
hot enough; this to prevent admitting air
that is not warm enough to the passenger
compartment.
All manual settings are possible with this
function on.To switch the function off, simply turn the
knob counter-clockwise and set the re-
quired temperature.
❒LO function (highest cooling power:
this is turned on by rotating the temper-
ature knob counter-clockwise and passing
the min. temperature value (16 °C).
This function can be engaged when re-
quiring to cool the passenger compart-
ment as quickly as possible, exploiting the
maximum potential of the system. Under
these conditions, the system is no longer
controlled by the automatic temperature
adjustment system and sets air mixing to
maximum cooling by modulating speed
and air distribution. All manual settings are
possible with this function on.
To switch the function off, simply turn the
knob clockwise and set the required tem-
perature.

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 con-
trol system is off.
With low outdoor temperatures, recir-
culation is turned off (with air intake from
outside) to prevent possible misting.
It is inadvisable to use the inside air re-
circulation function with low outside tem-
perature as windows may mist over quick-
ly.Climate control
compressor on/off
button (F)
Press pushbutton √to
turn off the climate control system
compressor if it was on previously and
the logo on the display is turned off.
When the pushbutton is pressed with
the led off, control of compressor
activation is restored to automatic
control by the system. This condition is
indicated by the logo lighting up on the
display.
When turning the compressor off, the sys-
tem will deactivate air recirculation to pre-
vent window misting up. Although the sys-
tem is able to keep the required tempera-
ture, the wording FULL will disappear from
the display. If the system is no longer able
to keep the required temperature, tem-
perature figures will flash and the wording
AUTO will disappear from the display.IMPORTANT With the climate control
compressor off, it is not possible to admit
air to the passenger compartment with a
temperature below the outside tempera-
ture; moreover, under certain environ-
mental conditions, windows could mist up
fastly since air is not dehumidified.
The switching off of the climate control
compressor remains in storage even when
the engine has been stopped.
To restore automatic control for switch-
ing on the climate control compressor,
press again button √(in this event the sys-
tem will just work as heater) or press but-
ton AUTO.

TO INCREASE THE MEMORISED
SPEED
The speed memorised can be increased in
two ways:
❒pressing the accelerator and then
memorising the new speed reached;
or
❒moving the stalk upwards (+).
Each operation of the stalk will corre-
spond to a slight increase in speed (about
1 km/h), while keeping the stalk upwards
will correspond to a continuous speed in-
crease.
TO REDUCE MEMORISED
SPEED
The speed memorised can be increased in
two ways:
❒disengaging the device and then mem-
orising the new speed;
or
❒moving the stalk downwards (–) until
reaching the new speed which will be
memorised automatically.
Each operation of the stalk will corre-
spond to a slight reduction in speed (about
1 km/h), while keeping the stalk down-
wards will correspond to a continuous
speed reduction.DEVICE DISENGAGEMENT
The device can be disengaged in the fol-
lowing ways:
❒turning the knurled ring Ato OFF;
❒turning the engine off;
❒pressing the brake pedal or engaging
the hand brake;
❒pressing the clutch pedal;
❒shifting gear with automatic transmis-
sion in sequential mode;
❒with vehicle speed below the preset
limit;
❒pressing the accelerator pedal; in this
case the system is not really disen-
gaged but the request for acceleration
takes priority over the system. The
cruise control is however active and it
will not be necessary to press button
RES to resume previous conditions
after ending acceleration.The device is automatically deactivated in
one of the following cases:
❒ABS or ESP system cut-in;
❒system failure.
When travelling with the de-
vice on, never set the
gearshift lever to neutral.
In the event of device mal-
function or failure, turn the
knurled ring A to OFF and contact a
Fiat Dealership after checking the
protection fuse integrity.

IMPORTANT Changes to the instrument
or to the signal transmission system which
effects the instrument recordings, espe-
cially for fraudulent purposes, may be a
criminal offence.
IMPORTANT When a macrograph is fit-
ted and the vehicle has been parked for
longer than 5 days, it is advisable to dis-
connect the battery negative terminal to
preserve the charge status. USER INTERFACE
Display user interface consists of the fol-
lowing fig. 106:

firm the operation.TEXT MESSAGES ON THE
DISPLAY
Text messages will be displayed in the fol-
lowing conditions:
❒5 seconds after engaging reverse a
warning message will be displayed.
❒When exceeding 18 km/h speed and
only the activation button is ON, the
camera image will disappear and a
message indicating system stand-by
will be displayed for about 5 seconds.
❒When exceeding 18 km/h speed and
reverse is engaged, the camera image
will disappear and a warning message
