IMPORTANT To guarantee rapid
demisting/defrosting, if an
additional heater is present (under
the front or rear seat on Panorama
and Combi versions), if activated,
deactivate it using the F button
(LED off) located in the control
panel fig. 47.
After demisting/defrosting, operate
the controls to restore the required
comfort conditions.
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:

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.

These operating conditions are
obtained by pressing air
recirculation button G in sequence.
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 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. 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 demisting/
defrosting (D)
Press this button and the climate
control system will automatically
switch on all the functions required
for fast windscreen and side
window demisting/defrosting:
❒switches on climate control
compressor when climatic conditions
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 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.
NoteTo 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 button F (LED off) located
in control panel F fig. 55.
Switching the system
OFF (E)
Press button E to switch the
climate control system off. The
display will go out.
The following climate control
conditions will be present when the
system is off:
❒display off;
❒temperature setting not displayed;
❒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.

ADDITIONAL
HEATER
(for versions/markets, where
provided)
On some versions, an additional
heater is also present beneath the
driver's seat. The fan for this heater
is operated by means of the button
F located on the control panel fig.
53.
INDEPENDENT
ADDITIONAL
HEATER
(for versions/markets, where
provided)
The vehicle is available, on request,
with two different independent
heaters: one fully automatic, the
other which can be programmed.
AUTOMATIC VERSION
The additional heater is turned on in
automatic mode when the engine
is started and the required outside
temperature and coolant conditions
are present. Deactivation is always
automatic.
21)
IMPORTANT During periods with
low outdoor temperatures when the
device cuts in, check that the fuel
level is always higher than the
reserve level. Otherwise the device
could lock and require the
assistance of a Fiat Dealership.PROGRAMMABLE
VERSION
The additional heater operates
completely independently of engine
operation and allows the following:
❒heating the passenger compartment
with the engine off
❒defrosting the windows;
❒heat the engine coolant and then the
engine itself prior to starting.
The system consists of:
❒a diesel burner for heating the water
with an exhaust silencer for the
combustion gases;
❒a metering pump connected to the
reservoir pipes for supplying the
burner;
❒a heat exchanger connected to the
engine cooling system pipes;
❒a control unit connected to the
passenger compartment
heating/ventilation system to allow
automatic operation;
❒an electronic control unit for
controlling and adjusting the built-in
burner;
MODEF

KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

❒a digital timer fig. 54 for turning the
heater on manually or for
programming the time that it comes
on.
The additional heater (during winter)
heats, maintains the temperature
of and circulates engine coolant for
a set time period in order to ensure
optimum engine and passenger
compartment conditions at engine
start-up.
The heater can operate
automatically when programmed
with a digital timer or manually
by pressing the 'immediate heating'
button on the timer.
After heater activation, whether
programmed or manually, the
electronic control unit operates the
coolant pump and turns on the
burner in accordance with pre-set,
controlled procedures.
The circulation pump output is also
controlled by the electronic control
unit in order to minimise the initial
heating time.
When the system operates, the
control unit turns on the passenger
compartment heater unit fan at
the second speed.The thermal power of the boiler is
regulated automatically by the
electronic control unit depending on
the temperature of the engine
coolant.
IMPORTANT The heater is
equipped with a thermal limiter that
cuts off combustion in the case of
overheating due to insufficient
coolant/coolant leaks. In this case,
after repairing the fault in the
cooling system and/or topping up
the fluid, press the program
selection button before turning the
heater back on.
The heater can turn off
spontaneously due to misfiring after
start-up or because the flame
goes out during operation. In this
case, carry out the turning off
procedure and try to turn the heater
back on. If it still does not work,
consult a Fiat Dealership.Activation of the
heating system
When an automatic climate control
system is present, the control
unit sets the air temperature and
distribution when the heater is
turned on from the park position.
When a manual heater/climate
control is present, to obtain
maximum heater efficiency, check
that the passenger compartment
heating/ventilation temperature
adjustment knob is in the 'hot air'
position.
To prioritise passenger
compartment pre-heating, set the
air distribution knob to the
position.
To prioritise windscreen demisting,
set the air distribution knob to
position.
To obtain both functions, set the air
distribution knob to
position.
