INTERNAL AIR RECIRCULATION
ACTIVATION
Press button
: when the function is on, the
button LED lights up. It is advisable to switch the
internal air recirculation on while standing in queues
or in tunnels to prevent the introduction of polluted
air. However, it is better not to use the function
for long periods, particularly if there are many people
on board, to prevent the windows from misting.
IMPORTANT Internal air recirculation makes it
possible to reach the required heating or cooling
conditions more quickly depending on the mode
selected. Do not use the internal air recirculation
function on rainy/cold days as it would considerably
increase the possibility of the windows misting. ADDITIONAL HEATER
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This device warms up the passenger compartment
more quickly when it is very cold and the engine
coolant temperature is low.
The additional heater comes on automatically when
the engine is started, if knob A is turned to the
last red sector and the fan (knob C) is at least at the
first speed level.
The heater switches off automatically when the
required comfort conditions are achieved.
IMPORTANT The heater will not turn on if the
battery voltage is too low.

IMPORTANT Press
to introduce air from the
outside (in this case the LED on the button should be off ). ACTIVATION OF INTERNAL AIR RECIRCULATION AND ENABLEMENT OFAQS FUNCTION (Air Quality System) Press button
. Internal air recirculation is carried
out according to three possible operating modes: ❒
automatic control, signalled by the AQS sign on the display and the LED on button
being
off;
❒
forced deactivation (internal air recirculationalways off with introduction of outside air),indicated by the LED on button
being off;
❒
forced activation (internal air recirculation alwayson), signalled by the LED on button
being lit.
When OFF button is pressed, the climate controlsystem automatically activates internal airrecirculation (the LED on button T should be on). Itis still possible to activate outside air recirculation(LED on the button off ) and vice versa, by pressingbutton T. With the OFF button pressed (LED on the button is lit up), it is not possible to enable the AQS (AirQuality System) function.
IMPORTANT Internal air recirculation makes itpossible to reach the required heating or coolingconditions more quickly depending on the modeselected. It is not advisable to switch the internal airrecirculation on when it is rainy/cold to preventthe windows from misting, especially if the climatecontrol system has not been activated. It is advisableto switch the internal air recirculation on whilstqueuing or in tunnels to prevent the introduction ofpolluted air. Do not use the function for a longtime, particularly if there are several passengers onboard, to prevent the windows from misting. AQS (Air Quality System) function activation The AQS function (AQS sign on the display) automatically activates internal air recirculation whenthe outside air is polluted (e.g. in traffic queues andtunnels). IMPORTANT With the AQS function active, after approx. 15 consecutive minutes of the internalair recirculation system functioning, the climatecontrol system enables the intake of outside air forapproximately 1 minute to freshen the air in thepassenger compartment. This takes place regardlessof the pollution level of the outside air.

On some versions, a courtesy mirror with courtesy
light is fitted on the back of the visors. The light
allows the mirror to be used even in poor visibility
conditions.
Lift cover A to access the mirror.
If the ignition key is at STOP position, the light stays
on for about 15 minutes. If, during this period, a
door or the tailgate is opened, the 15 minute timing
is reset.
IMPORTANT On both sides of the sun visor there is
a label remembering that it is compulsory to
deactivate the airbags if a rearward facing child
restraint system is fitted. Always comply with the
instructions on the sun visor. (see the "Front airbags"
paragraph in chapter "Safety").
SUN ROOF(for versions/markets, where provided)
The large electric sun roof comprises two panes of
glass, one of which is mobile and the other fixed.
These are equipped with two
sun blinds (front and rear) that can be moved
manually.
The sun blinds be used in "fully closed" or "fully
open" positions (they have no fixed intermediate
positions).
To open the sun blinds: grip handle A fig. 65, release
it and move it in the direction of the arrows to
the "fully open" position.
To close them, carry out the procedure in reverse.
The sun roof can be operated only with the ignition
key turned to MAR-ON. The controls A and B fig. 66
on the trim next to the front roof light operate the
sun roof opening/closing functions.

TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring
System)(for versions/markets, where provided)
The car may be fitted with a tyre pressure
monitoring system (TPMS), which informs the driver
of the tyre inflation status via the "Check tyre
pressure" and "Low tyre pressure" messages on the
display. For a detailed description of the two
messages, see the "Warning lights and messages"
chapter.
The system comprises a radio-frequency transmitter
fitted to each wheel (on the wheel rim inside the
tyre), which is able to send information on the tyre
inflation pressure of each wheel to the control unit.
WARNING
The presence of the TPMS does not
permit the driver to neglect regular
checking of the pressure of the tyres and the
spare wheel (see "Wheels" in the "Maintenance
and care" chapter).
WARNING
Sensor malfunctioning fault indications are not stored
and will therefore not be displayed after the engine
has been switched off and then on again. If the
fault conditions persist, the control unit will send the
relative indications to the instrument panel only
after the vehicle has been in motion for a short time. Tyre pressure must be checked with tyres rested and
cold. Should it become necessary for whatever
reason to check pressure with warm tyres, do not
reduce pressure even though it is higher than the
prescribed value, but repeat the check when tyres
are cold (see "Wheels" in the "Technical data"
chapter).
The TPMS is not able to warn you of sudden tyre
pressure losses (for example when a tyre bursts). In
this case, stop the car, braking with caution and
avoiding abrupt steering.
Particularly strong radio-frequency interference may
cause the TPMS to function incorrectly. This
condition is indicated to the driver by a warning light
or symbol lighting up on the instrument panel
together with a dedicated message. The message will
disappear automatically as soon as the radio-
frequency interference ceases to affect the system.
The TPMS requires the use of specific equipment.
Contact a Fiat Dealership to find out which
accessories are compatible with the system (wheels,
hub caps, etc.). Using other accessories may hinder
the normal operation of the system. Given the
unique valve specifications, only use Fiat-approved
sealers to repair the tyres. The use of other sealers
may prevent the normal operation of the system.
