It will also be possible to remove it,
working on the seat where the clips are
free in relation to the openings in the
rails; in this position (which can easily
be achieved by sliding the base a
little and simultaneously extracting it)
the seat can easily be removed fig. 33.
After the sliding and removal
operations, the seat should be refitted
and secured to the rails on the floor
before driving, as follows:❒fit the base on the rails;
❒push the retaining lever downwards
fig. 34, applying suitable force, until
the system is locked.IMPORTANT The locking system is only
secured when the safety clip under
the lever locks it horizontally. If this does
not happen, check that the seat is in
the exact locking position in relation to
the rail (moving the seat backwards
or forwards a few millimetres until it is
properly attached). Once the
quick-release base is locked in position,
it will be as in the first stage, in other
words with the retaining lever perfectly
parallel to the floor guaranteeing that
the seat is securely fastened in the
selected position.
The seat can be turned 180º toward
the seat on the opposite side. To turn it,
see the "Seat with revolving base"

IMPORTANT
2) The fabric upholstery of your
vehicle is designed to withstand
the normal wear and tear of your
vehicle for a long time. You are
however recommended to avoid
strong and/or continuous
scratching with clothing
accessories such as metal
buckles, studs, Velcro fastenings
and the like, as these items cause
stress of the cover fabric that
could lead to yarn breaking and
damage the upholstery.
HEAD RESTRAINTSFRONT
On certain versions the head restraints
are adjustable in height and they lock
automatically in the required position.
16)
Adjustment
❒Upward adjustment: lift the head
restraint until it clicks into place.
❒Downwards adjustment: press the
button A fig. 37 and lower the head
restraint.
To extract the front head restraints
press buttons A and B fig. 37 at the
sides of the two supports
simultaneously and release them

WARNING
16) All adjustments must only be
carried out with the vehicle
stationary and the engine off.
Head restraints must be adjusted
so that the head, rather than
the neck, rests on them. Only in
this case can they protect your
head correctly. To take best
advantage of the protection
provided by the head restraint,
adjust the seat back so that you
are sitting up straight and your
head is as close to the head
restraint as possible.

CONTROLS
Air temperature
adjustment knob (I)
Turn the knob either clockwise or
counterclockwise to increase or lower
the requested temperature in the
passenger compartment.
The set temperature is shown on the
display.
Turn the knob either fully to the right or
fully to the left to the extreme HI or
LO position to turn the maximum
heating or maximum cooling functions
on:
❒HI function (maximum heating): select
by turning the temperature knob
clockwise beyond the maximum
value (32°C).
This function may be used to heat up
the passenger compartment by
exploiting the system's potential to the
full. In this event, the system stops
controlling the temperature
automatically and sets the air mixing to
maximum heating. The air speed and
distribution are fixed.
In particular, if the heating fluid is not
sufficiently hot, the maximum fan speed
does not come on straight away in
order to limit the intake of insufficiently
hot air to the passenger compartment.All manual settings will be allowed when
this function is on.
To switch the function off, simply turn
the temperature knob anticlockwise
and set the required temperature.
❒LO function (maximum cooling):
select by turning the temperature
knob anticlockwise beyond the
minimum value (16°C).
This function may be used to cool
down the passenger compartment by
exploiting the system's potential to
the full. In this event, the system stops
controlling the temperature
automatically and sets the air mixing to
maximum cooling. The air speed and
distribution are fixed. All manual
settings will be allowed when this
function is on.
To switch the function off, simply turn
the temperature knob anticlockwise
and set the required temperature.
Air distribution buttons
(B)
By pressing these buttons, it is possible
to set one of the seven possible air
distributions manually:
Air flow to the windscreen and front
side window vents to demist or defrost
them.
Air flow to the central and side
dashboard vents to ventilate chest and
face during the hot season.Air flow to the front and rear footwell
vents. Thanks to the natural tendency
of hot air to rise, this distribution pattern
allows the passenger compartment to
warm up as quickly as possible,
providing an immediate feeling of
warmth.
Air flow distributed between
footwell vents (hotter air) and central
and side dashboard vents (cooler air).
This distribution mode is particularly
useful in spring and autumn on sunny
days.Air flow distributed between the
footwell vents and the windscreen
and front side window defrosting/
demisting vents. This allows an
adequate warming of the passenger
compartment and prevents the
windows from misting up.Air flow distribution split between
the windscreen and front side windows
defrosting/demisting vents and the
central and side dashboard vents as
well as the footwell vents. This
distribution makes it possible to
maintain good levels of comfort and
keep the passenger compartment
sufficiently cool (summer).

INDEPENDENT
ADDITIONAL
HEATER(for versions/markets, where provided)
The vehicle is available, on request,
with two different independent heaters:
one fully automatic, the other which
can be programmed.
AUTOMATIC VERSION
The additional heater is turned on in
automatic mode when the engine
is started and the required outside
temperature and coolant conditions are
present. Deactivation is always
automatic.
21)
IMPORTANT During periods with low
outdoor temperatures when the device
cuts in, check that the fuel level is
always higher than the reserve level.
Otherwise the device could lock and
require the assistance of a Fiat
Dealership.
PROGRAMMABLE
VERSION
The additional heater operates
completely independently of engine
operation and allows the following:❒heating the passenger compartment
with the engine off
❒defrosting the windows;
❒heat the engine coolant and then the
engine itself prior to starting.
The system consists of:
❒a diesel burner for heating the water
with an exhaust silencer for the
combustion gases;
❒a metering pump connected to the
reservoir pipes for supplying the
burner;
❒a heat exchanger connected to the
engine cooling system pipes;
❒a control unit connected to the
passenger compartment
heating/ventilation system to allow
automatic operation;
❒an electronic control unit for
controlling and adjusting the built-in
burner;
❒a digital timer fig. 54 for turning the
heater on manually or for
programming the time that it comes
on.The additional heater (during winter)
heats, maintains the temperature of and
circulates engine coolant for a set time
period in order to ensure optimum
engine and passenger compartment
conditions at engine start-up.
The heater can operate automatically
when programmed with a digital timer
or manually by pressing the 'immediate
heating' button on the timer.
After heater activation, whether
programmed or manually, the electronic
control unit operates the coolant pump
and turns on the burner in accordance
with pre-set, controlled procedures.
The circulation pump output is also
controlled by the electronic control unit
in order to minimise the initial heating
time.
When the system operates, the control
unit turns on the passenger
compartment heater unit fan at the
second speed.
The thermal power of the boiler is
regulated automatically by the
electronic control unit depending on the
temperature of the engine coolant.
39

IMPORTANT The heater is equipped
with a thermal limiter that cuts off
combustion in the case of overheating
due to insufficient coolant/coolant
leaks. In this case, after repairing the
fault in the cooling system and/or
topping up the fluid, press the program
selection button before turning the
heater back on.
The heater can turn off spontaneously
due to misfiring after start-up or
because the flame goes out during
operation. In this case, carry out the
turning off procedure and try to turn the
heater back on. If it still does not work,
consult a Fiat Dealership.
Activation of the heating
system
When an automatic climate control
system is present, the control unit sets
the air temperature and distribution
when the heater is turned on from the
park position. When a manual
heater/climate control is present, to
obtain maximum heater efficiency,
check that the passenger compartment
heating/ventilation temperature
adjustment knob is in the 'hot air'
position.
To prioritise passenger compartment
pre-heating, set the air distribution knob
to the
position.To prioritise windscreen demisting, set
the air distribution knob to
position.
To obtain both functions, set the air
distribution knob to
position.
