Splitting of the air flow between the
vents to the lower part of the pas-
senger compartment (warmest air)
and the dashboard centre and side
outlets (coolest air). This air flow dis-
tribution is particularly useful in
spring and autumn when the sun is
shining.
¬
Splitting of the air flow between
windscreen and front side window
demisting/defrosting vents and the
lower part of the passenger com-
partment. This type of air distribution
allows satisfactory heating of the pas-
senger compartment while prevent-
ing possible misting of the windows.The type of air distribution, when select-
ed by hand, is shown by lighting up of the
relevant led on the selected button.
In the combined function, pressing a but-
ton will activate the relevant function
whereas, pressing a button relevant to an
already operating function will turn off this
function and the relevant button led.
To restore automatic air distribution con-
trol after a manual selection, press button
AUTO.
When the driver selects air distribution to
the windscreen, also the air distribution
on passenger side will be distributed to the
windscreen. The passenger can however
select the required air distribution by
pressing the relevant buttons.Fan speed adjusting buttons G - H
Press button Gpto decrease the fan
speed and therefore the amount of air ad-
mitted into the passenger compartment.
Press button Hpto increase the fan
speed and therefore the amount of air ad-
mitted into the passenger compartment,
although keeping the required tempera-
ture set.
The fan speed is shown by the lit bars of
the fan symbol pon the display:
❒
max fan speed = all bars lit;
❒
min fan speed = one bar lit.
The fan can be cut off only if the climate
control compressor has been switched off
pressing button A.
IMPORTANT To restore automatic fan
speed control after a manual adjustment,
press button AUTO.

ROOF RACK/SKI RACK
PRESETTINGCouplings are located in a longitudinal run-
ner on the vehicle roof.
Secure roof rack/ski racks to the proper
preset holes shown in fig. 108.
IMPORTANT Strictly follow the installa-
tion instructions contained in the kit. In-
stallation hall be carried out by skilled per-
sonnel.
fig. 108
F0P0100m
After travelling a few kilo-
metres, check that the cou-
pling fastening screws are tight.
WARNING
Strictly comply with current
law regulations concerning
max. overall dimensions.
Distribute the load evenly
and when driving, bear in
mind the increased sensitivity of the
vehicle to side wind.
WARNING
Never exceed the permitted
weight (see section “Techni-
cal specifications”).
For safety reasons the bon-
net must be closed properly
to avoid its opening while the vehi-
cle is travelling. Therefore, always
check it is properly closed and the
catch engaged. Should you notice
that the catch is not perfectly en-
gaged when travelling, stop the vehi-
cle immediately and close the bonnet.
WARNING
If the supporting rod is not
positioned correctly the bon-
net may fall violently.
WARNING
Carry out operations only
when the vehicle is station-
ary.
WARNING
If the vehicle is equipped with an alarm sys-
tem the incorrect closure of the car boot
is signalled by the lighting of warning light9
together with a beeper and a dedicat-
ed message on the display.

ASR SYSTEM (Antislip Regulator)
The ASR system controls the vehicle
drive and cuts in automatically every
time one or both driving wheels slip.
In slipping conditions, two different con-
trol systems are activated:❒
if slipping involves both driving wheels,
the ASR function intervenes reducing
the power transmitted by the engine;
❒
if the slipping involves only one driving
wheel, the ASR system cuts in auto-
matically braking the wheel that is slip-
ping. The action of the ASR system is particu-
larly helpful in the following circumstances:
❒
slipping of the inner wheel due to the
effect of dynamic load changes or ex-
cessive acceleration;
❒
too much power transmitted to the
wheels also in relation to the conditions
of the road surface;
❒
acceleration on slippery, snowy or
frozen surfaces;
❒
in the case of loss of grip on a wet sur-
face (aquaplaning).
Do not take unnecessary
risks, even if your vehicle is
fitted with the ESC and ASR sys-
tems.Your driving style must always
be suited to the road conditions, vis-
ibility and traffic.The driver is always
responsible for road safety.
WARNING
Switching the system on/off
The ASR system switches on automatically
each time the engine is started.
Switching the ESC system off will auto-
matically switch off the ASR system too.
When travelling, the ASR can be switched
off and on again by pressing switch Alo-
cated on the dashboard fig. 113.
When the ASR is switched off this is
shown by the lighting up of the led
B-fig. 113on the switch and by relevant
message on the multifunction display, for
versions/markets, where provided.
If the ASR is switched off when travelling,
it will turn on again automatically the next
time the engine is started.
When travelling on snowy roads with
snow chains, it may be helpful to turn the
ASR off: in fact, in these conditions, slip-
ping of the driving wheels when moving off
makes it possible to obtain better drive.

PARKING SENSORS (for versions/markets, where provided)
Parking sensors are located in the rear
bumper fig. 114and their function is to
inform the driver, through an intermittent
buzzer, about the presence of obstacles
behind the vehicle.
In order to deactivate the parking sensors,
press button A-fig. 115present between
the commands on the bridge of the cen-
tral compartment. The deactivation is sig-
nalled by the lighting of the led Bon the
button.
In order to re-activate them, press button
Aagain.
When the distance from the obstacle sit-
uated behind the vehicle diminishes, it cor-
responds with an increase in the frequen-
cy of the beeping.
WARNING The condition of the parking
sensors (activated or deactivated) is mem-
orised upon switching off the engine.BUZZER WARNINGS
When the reverse gear is engaged an in-
termittent acoustic signal is automatically
activated.
The acoustic signal:
❒
becomes louder as the distance be-
tween the vehicle and the obstacle de-
creases;
❒
becomes continuous when the distance
between the vehicle and the obstacle is
less than 30 cm and stops immediately
if the distance raises;
❒
is constant if the distance is unvaried;
if this situation concerns the side sen-
sors, the buzzer will stop after about
3 seconds to avoid, for example, warn-
ing indications in the event of manoeu-
vres along walls.FAILURE INDICATIONS
Parking sensor failures, if any, will be in-
dicated when engaging reverse by the
buzzer and the turning on of led

WHEN NEEDING TO
CHANGE A BULBGENERAL INSTRUCTIONS❒
When a light is not working, check that
the corresponding fuse is intact before
changing a bulb. For the location of fus-
es, refer to the paragraph “If a fuse
blows” in this section;
❒
Before changing a bulb check the con-
tacts for oxidation;
❒
Burnt bulbs must be replaced by oth-
ers of the same type and power;
❒
Always check the height of the head-
light beam after changing a bulb.
IMPORTANT The headlight inner surface
may be lightly misted over: this is not a
fault but a natural fact due to low tem-
perature and level of air humidity. It will
disappear as soon the headlights are
turned on. The presence of drops inside
the headlights means water infiltration,
therefore contact Fiat Dealership.
TYPES OF BULBS
Various types of bulbs are fitted to your
vehicle:
AAll glass bulbs: these are pressed on.
Pull to remove.BBayonet type bulbs: to remove this
type of bulb from its holder, press
the bulb and turn it counter-clock-
wise.
CTubular bulbs: release them from
their contacts to remove.
DHalogen bulbs: to remove the bulb,
release the clip holding the bulb in
place. Halogen bulbs must be han-
dled touching only the metal-
lic part. If the transparent bulb
is touched with the fingers, its
lighting intensity is reduced and life of
the bulb may be compromised. If
touched accidentally, rub the bulb with
a cloth moistened with alcohol and al-
low to dry.
Modifications or repairs to
the electrical system (elec-
tronic control units) carried out in-
correctly and without bearing the fea-
tures of the system in mind can cause
malfunctions with the risk of fire.
WARNING
Halogen bulbs contain pres-
surised gas which, if broken,
may cause small fragments of glass to
be projected outwards.
