matic operation.

senger or rear passenger zones to the
driver’s zone;
❒…air recirculation, to keep it always
on or off;
❒-to speed up demisting/defrosting of
windscreen, side windows, rear window
and door mirrors;
❒(to demist/defrost the heated rear
window and the external rearview
mirrors.
During completely automatic system op-
eration, you can vary the set temperature,
the air distribution and the fan speed us-
ing the corresponding buttons or knobs
at any time: the system will automatically
change settings to adapt to the new re-
quest.
During fully automatic operation (FULL
AUTO), the word FULLwill dissapear
if the air distribution, air speed, compres-
sor and/or recirculation settings are
changed. In this way, the functions will
switch from automatic to manual control until AUTOis pressed again. The fan
speed is the same in all the zones of the
passenger compartment.
With on or more manually set functions,
the introduced air temperature is still
managed automatically by the system, ex-
cept for when the compressor is off: in the
case, the air introduced into the passen-
ger compartment cannot be cooler than
the outside air.

knobs
Turn the knobs clock-
wise or anticlockwise to
turn the temperature up
or down in the front left
zone (knob N) and the
right zone (knob H) of
the passenger compart-
ment respectively.
The system manages two passenger com-
partment zones: the driver and passen-
ger can therefore select different tem-
peratures. The maximum difference be-
tween the two zones is 7°C.
The set temperature is shown on the dis-
play near the knobs.Press A(MONO) to automatically align
the temperature in the front passenger
zone to the driver’s side temperature. The
same temperature can be set in both
zones by turning knob N on driver’s side.
This function is used to adjust the tem-
perature in the passenger compartment
when the driver only is in the car.
To go back to separate air and tempera-
ture distribution in the two zones of the
passenger compartment, simply turn the
knobs H or press (A-MONO) when the
LED on the button is on.
Turn the knobs either all to the right or
all to the left to the extreme HIor LO

HEADLIGHTS
BEAM DIRECTION
Correct direction of the headlights is es-
sential for the comfort and safety of the
driver and the other road users. The head-
lights must be correctly directed to ensure
the best visibility conditions when the
headlights are on. Contact a Fiat Dealer-
ship to have the headlights properly ad-
justed.
HEADLIGHT CORRECTOR
This device works with the key at MAR
and the dipped beam headlights on. The
car will slant backwards when it is loaded,
raising the light beam. The beams must
therefore be directed again in this case.

IMPORTANT Check beam aiming every
time the load carried changes.
ADJUSTING THE HEADLIGHTS
WHEN ABROAD
The dipped headlamps are adjusted for
service in the country where the vehicle
was originally purchased. When travelling
in countries on the other side of the road,
cover the headlight as shown in the figure.
Use non-transparent adhesive for this pur-
pose.The figures fig. 123-124 show how to
change from left-hand drive to right-hand
drive.

USING THE GEARBOX
To engage the gears, press the clutch pe-
dal fully and shift the gear lever into one
of the required positions (the diagram is
shown on the knob).
IMPORTANT Reverse may only be enga-
ged when the car is at a standstill. With
the engine running, wait for at least 2 se-
conds with the clutch pedal fully pressed
before engaging reverse to prevent da-
mage to the gears and grating.
To engage 6th gear (where provided),
operate the lever by pressing it towards
the right in order to avoid engaging 4th
gear by mistake. The same applies to shif-
ting from 6th to 5th gear.
To engage reverse Rfrom idle position,
lift the sliding ring A-fig. 2-3under the
knob and at the same time shift the lever
rightwards and then backwards (petrol
versions only).
For Multijet versions, simply move the le-
ver rightwards and then backwards.
fig. 2F0H0150mfig. 3F0H0353m
Press the clutch pedal fully
to change gears correctly.
For this reason, there must be no ob-
stacles on the floor under the pedals:
ensure that rubber mats (if any) are
correctly positioned, not interfering
with the pedals.
WARNINGDo not drive with your hand
resting on the gear lever, be-
cause this pressure, even if li-
ght, over time can wear out
the gearbox inner components.

REPLACING A WHEEL
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Wheel changing and correct use of the
jack and spare wheel call for some pre-
cautions as listed below.
IMPORTANT Refer to the instructions in
the previous chapter if the car is equipped
with “Fix&Go (quick tyre repair kit)”.
The spare wheel is specific
for your car. Do not use it on
cars of different models. Do not use
spare wheels of different models on
your car. The space saver spare wheel
must only be used in case of emer-
gency. Use only for as long as stric-
tly necessary and drive at a speed
slower than 80 km/h. An orange la-
bel is affixed on the spare wheel sum-
marising instructions and limitations
for use. Never remove or cover the la-
bel. Never apply a wheel cup on a
space saver spare. The following
information is provided in four lan-
guages on the label: W
ARNING! SUITA-BLE FOR TEMPORARY USE ONLY! 80 KM/H
MAX! REPLACE WITH A STANDARD WHEEL
AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. DO NOT COVER THIS
LABEL
.
WARNING
The driving features of the
car may change when a spa-
ce saver spare wheel is fitted. Avoid
sudden acceleration and braking, sud-
den steering and fast cornering. The
total life of a space saver spare wheel
is approximately 3000 km, after whi-
ch it must be replaced by another
wheel of the same type. Never install
a traditional tyre on a space saver
spare wheel rim. Repair and refit the
standard wheel as soon as possible.
Only one space saver spare can be
used at a time. Do not apply grease
to the bolt threads before assembly:
the bolts could come loose unexpec-
tedly.
