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.

Operation must be enabled using the button F-fig. 68 in
the control panel.
❒Turn the knob D to the maximum cold position (ring
nut at blue sector) and air at ambient temperature
will come out of the rear footwell vents (located
under the seats in the 2
nd–3rdrow for Panorama
versions and the grille on the left wheel arch side for
Combi versions);
❒Turn the knob D to the maximum heating position
(ring nut at red sector) and warm air will emerge
(with the engine warmed up), from the rear footwell
outlets (located under the seats in the 2
nd–3rdrow
for Panorama versions and the grille on the left wheel
arch side for Combi versions).
F0N0185mfig. 68
ADDITIONAL REAR CLIMATE CONTROL
(Panorama and Combi)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The Panorama and Combi versions are equipped with
a main heating/air conditioning system plus an additional
system (available on request) with controls in the roof
lining above the second row of seats, fig. 67.
Button F-fig. 68 in the control panel must be enabled for
operation; the air conditioning only works if the main air
conditioner is on.
❒When the knob D is placed in the fully cold position
(ring nut in blue sector) cold air comes out of the
vents in the ceiling.
❒Turn the knob D to the maximum heating position
(ring nut at red sector) and warm air will emerge
(with the engine warmed up), from the rear footwell
outlets (located under the seats in the 2
nd–3rdrow
for Panorama versions and the grille on the left
wheel arch side for Combi versions).
❒When the knob D is in an intermediate position, air
will be distributed between the vents in the roof and
the rear footwell outlets to alter the temperature.
IMPORTANT If the compressor on the main air
conditioner control is turned on (operation of button
E), even if the additional air conditioner fan is in position
0, the 1
stspeed will automatically be activated to
prevent ice formation, with possible damage to the
component.

Each time the lever is operated the lights will stay on
another 30 seconds, up to a maximum of 210 seconds;
when this time has elapsed, the lights will go out
automatically.
The warning light 3on the instrument panel will light
up and the corresponding message will appear in the
display (see “Warning lights and messages”) for as long
as the function is activated. The warning light comes on
when the lever is operated and stays on until the
function is automatically deactivated. Each movement of
the lever only increases the amount of time the lights
stay on.
Deactivation
Keep the lever pulled towards the steering wheel for
more than 2 seconds.
AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHT SENSOR
(dusk sensor)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
It detects variations in brightness outside the vehicle
depending on the light sensitivity setting: the greater the
sensitivity, the less outside light needed to activate the
exterior lights being turned on. The sensitivity of the
dusk sensor is adjusted by means of the “Setup menu”
for the display. Lane change function
If you wish to signal a lane change, place the left lever in
the unstable position for less than half a second. The
direction indicator on the side selected will flash five
times and then switch off automatically.
“FOLLOW ME HOME” DEVICE
This device allows the illumination of the space in front
of the vehicle for a preset time.
Activation fig. 75
With the ignition key in the OFF position or extracted,
pull the lever towards the steering wheel and operate
the lever within 2 minutes of switching the engine off.

“Smart washing” function
Pull the lever towards the steering wheel (unstable
position) to operate the windscreen washer jet, fig. 78.
Keeping the lever pulled for more than half a second,
with just one movement it is possible to operate the
washer jet and the wiper at the same time.
The wipers stop operating four strokes after releasing
the lever.
A stroke 5 seconds later completes the wiping
operation. A: windscreen wipers off;
B: intermittent operation.
With the lever in position B, turn ring nut F to select
one of four different speeds for the intermittent
operation mode:
,= very slow intermittent operation
-- = slow intermittent operation
--- = medium intermittent operation
---- = fast intermittent operation
C: continuous slow operation;
D: continuous fast operation;
E: temporary fast operation (unstable position).
Temporary fast operation in position E is limited to the
time that the lever is manually held in this position. The
lever returns to position A when it is released,
automatically stopping the windscreen wipers.
IMPORTANT Replace the wiper blades as specified in
the “Maintenance and care” section.
Never use the windscreen wipers to
remove layers of snow or ice from the
windscreen. In such conditions, the
windscreen wipers may be subjected to excessive
stress and the motor protection which prevents
operation for a few seconds may trip. If the
operation is not restored, contact a Fiat
Dealership.

Deactivation fig. 77
Move the lever from position B or turn the ignition key
to OFF. The next time the vehicle is started (ignition
key in ON position), the sensor is not reactivated even
if the lever is still in position B. To activate the sensor,
move the lever to position A or C and then back to
position B or turn the ring nut for adjusting the
sensitivity. Rain sensor activation will be indicated by at
least one wiper “stroke” even if the windscreen is dry.
The rain sensor is capable of recognising the difference
between day and night and making the necessary
adjustments automatically. RAIN SENSOR
(for versions/markets where provided)
The rain sensor is located behind the rear view mirror
in contact with the windscreen and has the purpose of
automatically adjusting the frequency of the windscreen
wiper strokes depending on the intensity of the rain
during intermittent operation.
IMPORTANT Keep the glass in the sensor area clean.
Activation fig. 77
Move the right lever down by one click (position B).
The activation of the sensor is signalled by a “stroke” to
show that the command has been acquired.
Turn the control F to increase the rain sensor
sensitivity.
The increasing of the rain sensor sensitivity is signalled
by a “stroke” to show that the command has been
acquired.
If the windscreen washer is used with the rain sensor
activated, the normal washing cycle is performed, after
which the rain sensor resumes its normal automatic
operation.HEADLIGHT WASHERS
(for versions/markets where provided)
The headlight washers are “retractable”, i.e.: they are
located inside the front bumper and they are activated
when (with dipped beams on) the windscreen washer is
operated.
IMPORTANT Check the correct operation and
cleanliness of the jets at regular intervals.
Streaks of water may cause unnecessary
blade movements.
