voltage drop).
❒If the warning lightstays on,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT
1) The electronic components inside
the key may be damaged if the
key is subjected to sharp knocks.
In order to ensure complete
efficiency of the electronic
devices inside the key, it should
never be exposed to direct
sunlight.

IMPORTANT The engagement of the air
recirculation system makes it possible
to reach the required heating or cooling
conditions faster.
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
control compressor is off.
To prevent the windows from misting
up, the recirculation is forced off (i.e. air
is drawn in from the outside) when
the outside temperature is cold.
It is advisable not to use the air
recirculation function when the outside
temperature is low to prevent the
windows from rapidly misting up.
Climate control
compressor
enablement/off button
(F)
Press button
to switch the climate
control compressor off (if on). The icon
on the display will go out.
Press the button when the LED is off to
restore automatic system control of
compressor activation. The icon will
light up on the display.The system will switch recirculation off
when the compressor is switched off to
prevent windows from misting up.
Although the system is capable
of maintaining the required
temperature, the word FULL will
disappear from the display. If, on the
other hand, it is no longer capable
of maintaining the temperature, the
letters flash and the word AUTO goes
out.
IMPORTANT With the compressor off, it
is not possible to introduce air cooler
than ambient temperature into the
passenger compartment. Furthermore,
in certain conditions, the windows
could mist up rapidly because the air is
not dehumidified.
The system remembers that the
compressor has been switched off,
even after the engine has stopped.
To restore automatic compressor
control, press the
button again (in
this case, the system will only work as a
heater) or press the AUTO button.
With the compressor switched off, if the
outside temperature is higher than the
one set, the system is not capable
of satisfying this request. This is
signalled by the target temperature
flashing, after which the word AUTO
goes out.With the climate control compressor
off, the fan speed can be set to zero
manually (no bar shown).
With the compressor enabled and the
engine started, the fan speed may
be reduced to the minimum setting
(only one bar shown).
Button for rapid window

are suitable;
❒switches air recirculation off;
❒maximum air temperature HI in both
areas;
❒sets the fan speed according to the
engine coolant temperature to limit
the flow of air that is not sufficiently
warm to demist the windows;
❒directs air flow to windscreen and
front side windows vents;
❒heated rear window on.

IMPORTANT Pay attention to the
daylight saving time/standard time
setting.
Reading the current
time
To read the current time, press the
button 3 or 8: the time will appear on
the display for about 10 seconds and
warning light 9 will come on at the
same time.
Programming the
switching on time
Activation can be programmed with an
advance of between 1 minute and 24
hours. Three different activation times
may be selected, but only one can
be activated for each pre-heating cycle.
The duration of activation can be
selected between 10 and 60 minutes.
To program the activation time:
❒press button 4: the symbol 10 or the
time set previously and the number 5
corresponding to the preselection
recalled will light up in the display for
10 seconds.
IMPORTANT If you wish to recall other
preselected times, press button 4
from time to time within 10 seconds.– within 10 seconds, press the buttons
3 or 8 to select the desired switching
on time.
IMPORTANT The confirmation that the
time has been memorised is given by:
❒the disappearance of the switching
on time;
❒the presence of the preselection
number 5;
❒the lighting of the display.
IMPORTANT When the boiler comes
on:
❒the flame warning light 9 switches on
in the display;
❒the preselection number 5 goes out.
Standard settings:
Preselected time 1: 6:00
Preselected time 2: 16:00
Preselected time 3: 22:00
IMPORTANT Factory pre-settings are
cancelled with a new setting.
Preselected times are stored until the
following change. If the clock is
detached from the on-board network
(e.g. if the battery is disconnected), the
factory pre-settings are restored.Deactivation of the
programmed switching
on time
To delete the programmed activation
time, press button 4 briefly: the display
lighting will go off and the number 5
relating to the preselected time will
disappear.
Recalling one of the
preselected switching
on times
Operate button 4 within 10 seconds
until the program number with the
desired preselected time is displayed.
The preselected time you have chosen
to set is automatically activated after
about 10 seconds without the need for
any further confirmation with another
button.
Activate the preselected time taking
into account the safety instructions for
the operation of the independent
heating (for this purpose consult the
Owner's Manual for use of independent
heating).
IMPORTANT Independent heating
switches on at the preselected time,
both with vehicle parked and while
driving.

IMPORTANT The programmed
switching on time can be altered or
cancelled by following the instructions
given previously.
Operation duration
setting
Hold the button pressed. At the same
time press button 3 or 8.
The time and warning light 7 are
displayed.
Hold button 4 pressed again. At the
same time press button 3 or 8.
The preset activation duration is
displayed and warning light 9 or 2
flashes.
Set the activation duration with button
3or8.
The set activation duration is stored as
soon as the text in the display
disappears, or pressing button 4.
Switching the heating
system off
Deactivation of the system, depending
on the type of activation (automatic
or manual), may be:
❒automaticwhen the programmed
duration is over; when the set time
is over, the display switches off.❒manualpressing the “immediate
heating” button on the timer again
(flame button 6).
In both cases, the heating warning light,
the display lighting and the passenger
compartment heater fan go off and
burning stops.
The fluid circulation pump continues to
work for around two minutes to
dissipate as much heat as possible; the
heater can be turned back on during
this stage.
22)
IMPORTANT The parking heater goes
off when battery voltage is low to allow
the vehicle to be started.
IMPORTANT Before turning on the
device, ensure that the fuel level is
above the reserve. 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
oven 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, "Engine
coolant system fluid" paragraph. The
water in the heating circuit must
contain a minimum percentage of
10% antifreeze.
❒For maintenance and repairs, consult
only a Fiat Dealership and use only
original parts.
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.

WARNING
21) The heater burns fuel in the
same way as the engine, though
to a lesser extent. To prevent
poisoning and asphyxiation, the
additional heater must never
be turned on, not even for short
periods, in closed environments
such as a garage or workshops
without extraction fans for the
exhaust gases.

position deactivates the function.
If the driving speed is below 15 km/h
and the function is activated, the

off. With switch A pressed to the right,
the lights C and D are always on.
Lights switch on/off progressively.
The switch B is a spot light; when the
roof light is off, it switches the following
on individually:
❒light C if pressed on the left side;
❒light D if pressed on the right side.IMPORTANT Before getting out of the
vehicle, make sure that both switches
are in the middle position; when the
doors are closed, the lights switch off
preventing the battery from running flat.
In any case, if the switch is left in on
position, the roof light switches off
automatically 15 minutes after
the engine switching off.
