The fabric covers on your vehicle have
been dimensioned to be resistant to
normal wear and tear. Some precautions
are however needed. Avoid prolonged rubbing

buckles, bosses, Velcro strips and the like, which
by applying a high pressure on the fabric in
a small area could cause the breakage of some
threads and damage the upholstery.
Lengthwise direction adjustment fig. 26

backwards: in driving position your arms should rest on
the rim of the steering wheel.
Once you have released the adjustment
lever, always check that the seat is

and forth. If it is not locked, the seat may move
unexpectedly and make you lose control of the
vehicle.

IMPORTANT Before switching the device on, check
that the fuel level is higher than the reserve level.
Otherwise the device could lock and require the
assistance of a Fiat Dealership.
❒Always turn off the heater when refuelling and near
service stations to avoid the risk of explosion or fire
hazards.
❒Do not park the vehicle on inflammable material
such as paper, grass or dry leaves: fire hazard!
❒The temperature near the heater should not exceed
120 °C (e.g. during stove painting in a body shop).
The electronic control unit components may be
damaged at higher temperatures.
❒Whilst the heater is operating with the engine
switched off, it absorbs energy from the battery; the
engine should therefore be left running for a while to
make sure that the battery is properly recharged.
❒To check the coolant level, follow the instructions in
the “Vehicle maintenance” chapter in the “Engine
coolant system fluid” paragraph. The water in the
heating circuit must contain a minimum percentage
of 10% antifreeze.
❒For maintenance and repairs, only contact Fiat
Dealerships and only use genuine spare parts.
F0N0233mfig. 67
MAINTENANCE
Have the additional heater checked regularly at a Fiat
Dealership (and always at the start of every winter).
This will guarantee safe and economic operation of the
heater as well as a long duration.
ADDITIONAL REAR HEATING
(Panorama and Combi)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The Panorama and Combi versions have a main heating
system plus an additional one (on request) with the
controls in the roof lining above the second row of
seats, fig. 67.

conditioner control is turned on (operation of button
E), even if the additional air conditioner fan is in position
0, the 1
