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 automatically restore system
control and use of the compressor.
The icon will light up in the display in
this case.
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 thebutton 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
and signals it by the digits for the
temperature setting 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 demisting/
defrosting (D)
Pressing this button, the climate
control system will automatically
switch on all the functions required
for fast windscreen and front side
window demisting/defrosting:
❒switches on climate control
compressor when climatic conditions
are suitable;
❒sets air recirculation off;
❒sets 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;
❒sets heated rear window on.
IMPORTANT The rapid demisting/
defrosting function for the windows
remains on for about 3 minutes from
when the engine coolant reaches
the appropriate temperature for
a rapid demisting of the windows.

When this function is active, the LED
on the corresponding button and
the one on the heated rear window
button switch on. The message
FULL AUTO goes off on the display.
You can only adjust the fan speed
and switch off the heated rear
window manually when this function
is active.
To restore the previous operating
conditions, simply press button B,
air recirculation button G,
compressor button F or AUTO
button A.
Heated rear window

electric control
demisting/defrosting
button (L)
(for versions/markets, where
provided)
Push this button to activate the
demisting/defrosting of the heated
rear window and electric door
mirrors
When this function is active, the
button LED is on.This function switches off
automatically after about 20 minutes
or when you push the button again,
or when the engine is turned off. It
will not be switched on automatically
when the engine is restarted.
IMPORTANT Do not affix decals to
the inside of the heated rear window
over the heating filaments, to avoid
damage that might cause them
to stop working properly.
Switching the system
OFF (E)
Press button E to switch the climate
control system off. The display will
go out.
With the system off, the climate
control system conditions are as
follows: display off, temperature
setting not display, air recirculation
on thereby insulating the passenger
compartment from the outside
(recirculation LED on), climate
control compressor off, fan off.
Press the AUTO button to switch
the climate control system back on
in full automatic mode.ELECTRIC WINDOWS

WARNING
44) Strictly adhere to the laws in
force concerning maximum
clearance.
45) Check that the attachment fixing
screws are tight after a few
kilometres.
IMPORTANT
8) Evenly distribute the load and
take into account, when driving,
the increased responsiveness
of the vehicle to side wind.
9) Never exceed the maximum
permitted loads (see chapter
“Technical specifications”).
HEADLIGHTS
LIGHT BEAM
ALIGNMENT
The correct alignment of the
headlights is essential for the
comfort and safety of the driver and
other road users. To ensure the
best visibility when travelling with the
headlights on, the headlight
alignment must be correct. Contact
a Fiat Dealership to have the
headlights checked and adjusted.
HEADLIGHT
ALIGNMENT
CORRECTOR
This device works with the ignition
key in the MAR position and the
dipped beam headlights on.
The vehicle tilts backwards when it
is laden, raising the beam. The
beams must therefore be realigned
in this case.Headlight alignment
adjustment
Press theandfig. 109
buttons on the control panel to
adjust.
The display located on the
instrument panel provides a visual
indication of the adjustment
position.
Position 0 - one or two people in the
front seats.
Position 1 - five people.
Position 2 - five people + load in the
luggage compartment.
Position 3 - driver + maximum
permitted load stowed in the
luggage compartment.
IMPORTANT Check the light beam
alignment every time the load
transported changes.
FOG LIGHTS
ALIGNMENT
(for versions/markets, where
provided)
Contact a Fiat Dealership to have
the headlights checked and
adjusted.

During regeneration, the following
may occur: a limited increase in the
engine speed, activation of the
fan, a limited increase in fumes and
high temperatures at the exhaust.
These are not faults; they do not
impair vehicle performance or
damage the environment.
If the dedicated message is
displayed, refer to paragraph
"Warning lights and messages".

SPEEDOMETER
This shows the speed at which the
vehicle is travelling.
REV COUNTER
The rev counter shows the engine
rpm.
IMPORTANT The electronic injection
control system gradually shuts off
the flow of fuel when the engine
is “over-revving” resulting in a
gradual loss of engine power.
When the engine is idling, the rev
counter may indicate a gradual
or sudden increase of the speed.
This behaviour is standard as it
takes place during the activation of
the climate control system or the
fan. It should not be considered as a
fault. In such cases, a slight
increase in engine idle speed helps
to sustain the battery charge.
FUEL LEVEL GAUGE
This shows the amount of fuel left in
the fuel tank.
E tank empty.F tank full (see the instructions
provided in the “Vehicle refuelling”
paragraph).
The warning light on the gauge
comes on to indicate that
approximately 8-10 litres of fuel are
left in the tank.
Do not travel with the fuel tank
almost empty: any gaps in
fuel supply could damage the
catalytic converter.
IMPORTANT The needle will point to
E and warning light A will flash to
indicate a fault in the system.
Contact a Fiat Dealership to have
the system checked.
ENGINE COOLANT
TEMPERATURE
INDICATOR
This shows the temperature of the
engine coolant fluid and starts
working when the fluid temperature
exceeds approx. 50°C.
In normal usage, the needle should
hover around the middle of the
scale.
C Low engine coolant temperature.
H High engine coolant temperature.The warning light on the gauge may
light up (and a message on the
multifunction display may appear on
certain versions) to indicate that
the coolant fluid temperature is too
high; in this case, stop the engine
and contact a Fiat Dealership.
10)
IMPORTANT
10) If the needle for the engine
coolant temperature reaches the
red area, stop the engine
immediately and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
