IMPORTANT With a cold engine,
you have to wait for a few minutes

IMPORTANT To guarantee rapid
demisting/defrosting, if an
additional heater/air conditioner is
present (under the front or rear seat
on Panorama and Combi
versions), if activated, deactivate it
using F button fig. 50 (LED off)
located in the control panel.
After demisting/defrosting, operate
the controls to restore the required
comfort conditions.
IMPORTANT The climate control
system is very useful for speeding
up demisting since it dehumidifies
the air. Adjust the controls as
described above and press button
E to switch the climate control
system on; the LED on the button
will light up.Window demisting
In the event of considerable
external moisture and/or rain and/or
large differences in temperature
inside and outside the passenger
compartment, perform the following
preventive window demisting
procedure:
❒turn ring nut A to the red section;
❒stop internal air recirculation by
placing knob D on
;
❒turn ring nut C to
and consider
moving to
if misting does not
occur;
❒turn knob B to 2nd speed.
IMPORTANT The climate control
system is very useful for preventing
the windows from misting up in
the presence of high humidity since
it dries the air sent into the
passenger compartment.

INTERNAL AIR
RECIRCULATION
ACTIVATION
Turn D knob to
.
It is advisable to switch the internal
air recirculation on whilst queuing
or in tunnels to prevent the
introduction of polluted air. Do not
use the function for a long time,
particularly if there are many
passengers on board, to prevent
the windows from misting up.
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 air recirculation
function on rainy/cold days as it
would considerably increase the
possibility of the windows misting
inside.
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);

USING THE CLIMATE
CONTROL SYSTEM
The system can be started in
different ways, but it is advisable to
start by pressing the AUTO button
and then turning the knob to set
the temperature required on the
display. The system will start
running automatically in this way
and the set temperature will be
reached as quickly as possible. The
system will adjust the temperature,
the quantity and the distribution
of the air sent into the passenger
compartment and, by managing
the recirculation function, the
activation of the compressor.
During fully automatic operation,
the only manual intervention
required is the possible activation of
the following functions:
❒air recirculation, to keep the
function always either on or off;
❒
to speed up demisting/defrosting
of windscreen, rear window and
external rear view mirrors.
During fully automatic system
operation, you can change the set
temperature, air distribution and fan
speed at any time by using the
relevant buttons or knobs: the
system will automatically change its
settings to adjust to the new
requirements. During fully automatic
operation (FULL AUTO), the word
FULL will disappear if the air
distribution and/or flow rate and/or
engagement of the compressor
and/or recirculation settings are
changed. In this way, the functions
will switch from automatic to
manual control until the AUTO
button is pressed again. With one
or more functions turned on
manually, the adjustment of the
intake air temperature continues to
be managed automatically, except
with the compressor switched off: if
this is the case, the temperature
of the air sent into the passenger
compartment cannot be lower than
that of the outside air.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.
