READ THIS CAREFULLYREFUELLING
Only refuel with automotive diesel conforming to the European specification EN590. The use of other products or mixtures may damage the
engine beyond repair and consequently invalidate the warranty, due to the damage caused.
STARTING THE ENGINE
Make sure that the handbrake is engaged; set the gear lever to neutral; fully depress the clutch pedal without pressing the accelerator, then
turn the ignition key to MAR-ON and wait for the warning lights
and
to switch off; turn the ignition key to AVV and release it as
soon as the engine has started.
PARKING ON FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
The catalytic converter develops high temperatures during operation. Do not park on grass, dry leaves, pine needles or other flammable
material: fire hazard.
RESPECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
The vehicle is fitted with a system that allows continuous diagnosis of the emission-related components in order to help protect the
environment.
ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES
If, after buying the vehicle, you decide to add electrical accessories (with the risk of gradually draining the battery), visit a Fiat Dealership. They
can calculate the overall electrical requirement and check that the vehicle's electrical system can support the required load.
SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct maintenance enables the vehicle to perfectly maintain performance and safety characteristics, its environmental friendliness and low
running costs over time.
THE OWNER HANDBOOK CONTAINS

SYSTEM SERVICING
In winter, the climate control system
must be turned on at least once a
month for about 10 minutes. Before
summer, have the system checked at a
Fiat Dealership.
NoteThe system uses R134a coolant
which does not pollute the environment
in the event of accidental leakage.
Never use R12 fluid, which is not
compatible with the system
components.
AUTOMATIC
CLIMATE CONTROL
SYSTEM(for versions/markets, where provided)
GENERAL INFORMATION
The automatic climate control system
adjusts the temperature, the quantity
and the distribution of the air in the
passenger compartment.
The temperature control is based on
the "equivalent temperature": in other
words, the system continuously works
to keep the comfort level inside the
vehicle constant and to compensate for
possible variations in outside
conditions, including the sun's rays
detected by a dedicated sensor.
The automatically controlled
parameters and functions are:
❒air temperature at the vents;
❒air distribution at the vents;
❒fan speed (continuous variation of the
air flow);
❒compressor activation (for cooling/
dehumidifying the air);
❒air recirculation.All functions may be changed manually.
In other words, you may select one or
more functions and change the
parameters as required. Automatic
control of the manually changed
functions will be suspended: the
system will override your settings only
for safety-related reasons (e.g. risk
of misting).
Manual selections will always take
priority over automatic settings and will
be stored until the user switches the
system back to automatic operation by
pressing the AUTO button again except
for the cases in which the system will
intervene for particular, safety-related
reasons.
You can adjust one function manually
without affecting the automatic control
of the others.
The temperature of the air sent is
always controlled automatically,
depending on the temperature set in
the display (except when the system is
off or in certain conditions when the
compressor is switched off).

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.

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.

CRUISE CONTROL(for versions/markets, where provided)
IN BRIEF
This is an electronic driving aid that
allows you to drive at a speed of
above 30 km/h on long and straight
dry roads with few driving changes
(e.g. motorways) at a preset speed
without having to press the
accelerator pedal. It is therefore not
recommended to use this device
on extra-urban roads with traffic. Do
not use it in town.
Switching the device on
Turn ring nut A fig. 66 - fig. 67 to ON
or
(according to the version).The Cruise Control cannot be engaged
in 1st or reverse gear. It is advisable
to engage it in 4th or higher gears.
When travelling downhill with the device
engaged, the vehicle speed may
slightly exceed the stored one.
When the device is activated the
warning light
comes on together
with the relevant message on the
instrument panel.
Storing vehicle speed
Proceed as follows:
❒turn ring nut A fig. 66 - fig. 67 to ON
or
(according to the version) and
press the accelerator pedal so that
the vehicle reaches the desired
speed;❒move the stalk upwards (+) for at
least one second, then release it. The
vehicle speed is now stored and
you can therefore release the
accelerator pedal.
If necessary (e.g. when overtaking)
acceleration is possible by simply
pressing the accelerator pedal:
releasing the accelerator pedal the car
will return to the speed stored
previously.
Restoring the stored
speed
If the device has been deactivated, for
example by depressing the brake or
clutch pedal, the stored speed can be
restored as follows:
❒accelerate progressively until a speed
close to that stored is reached;
❒engage the gear selected at the time
that the speed was stored;
❒press button B fig. 66 - fig. 67.
Increasing the stored
speed
This can be done in two ways:
❒by pressing the accelerator and
storing the new speed reached
or
❒by moving the stalk upwards (+).
