AUTO function (automatic
operation)
Automatic air conditioning is a system
that guarantees (except when using it in
extreme conditions) interior comfort and
a good level of visibility, optimising
consumption. The system uses
ventilation speed, air distribution, air
recycling, activating or turning off the air
conditioner and air temperature.
AUTO: optimising the selected comfort
level reached according to exterior
conditions. Press button 1 fig. 94.

KNOWING YOUR VEHICLE
Irregular operation
Depending on the versions, when the
system detects irregular operation, an
appropriate message will appear on the
instrument panel along with the alarm
warning light
and an acoustic
signal going off every 5 seconds.
Contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
52)Parking and other potentially
dangerous manoeuvres are, however,
always the driver’s responsibility. When
performing these operations, always make
sure that there are no other people
(especially children) or animals on the route
you want to take. The parking sensors are
an aid for the driver, but the driver must
never allow their attention to lapse during
potentially dangerous manoeuvres, even
those executed at low speeds.
IMPORTANT
12)If the vehicle collides with something
when in reverse (for example against a
stake, a curbstone or any other street
furniture) you could damage the vehicle (for
example, bend an axle). To prevent any risk
of accident, have the vehicle checked at a
Fiat Dealership.13)The sensors must be clean of mud,
dirt, snow or ice in order for the system to
operate correctly. Be careful not to scratch
or damage the sensors while cleaning
them. Avoid using dry, rough or hard
cloths. The sensors should be washed
using clean water with the addition of car
shampoo if necessary. When using special
washing equipment such as high pressure
jets or steam cleaning, clean the sensors
very quickly keeping the jet more than
10 cm away.
14)Only have the bumpers repainted or
any retouches to the paintwork in the area
of the sensors carried out by a Fiat
Dealership. Incorrect paint application
could affect the Radar parking operation.

KNOWING YOUR VEHICLE
Opening the bonnet
Lift the bonnet and accompany it.
Lifting is aided by side dampers.
Closing the bonnet
Make sure nothing has been left in the
engine compartment. Lower the bonnet
to approximately 30 centimetres from
the engine compartment then let it
drop. Make sure that the bonnet is
completely closed and not only
fastened by the locking device by trying
to open it. If it is not perfectly closed,
do not try to press the bonnet lid down
but open it and repeat the procedure.
WARNING
57)Before any intervention, the engine
must be turned off (and not in stand-by):
you must turn the engine off (refer to the
"Starting the engine" paragraph in the
“Starting and driving” chapter).
58)Do not lean on the bonnet: it could
close involuntarily.
59)When you intervene near the engine,
this last could be hot. Moreover, the
cooling fan could start up at any time. Risk
of injury.
60)When working in the engine
compartment, make sure that the
windscreen wiper is in the stopped
position. Risk of injury.
61)In case of a collision, even a light one
like against the cowling or bonnet, have it
checked at a Fiat Dealership as soon as
possible.62)Use both hands to lift the bonnet.
Before lifting, check that the windscreen
wiper arms are not raised from the
windscreen, that the vehicle is stationary
and that the parking brake is engaged.
63)For safety reasons, the bonnet must
always be properly closed while the car is
travelling. Therefore, make sure that the
bonnet is properly closed and that the lock
is engaged. If you discover that the bonnet
is not perfectly closed during travel, stop
immediately and close the bonnet in the
correct manner.
IMPORTANT
16)After every intervention in the engine
compartment, make sure you have not left
anything (rags, tools, etc.); basically these
could damage the engine or start a fire.

What to do
Wash the car by hand, with lots of
water, using a soft cloth or sponge.
Going through an automatic car
wash
Bring the windscreen wiper to the stop
position (refer to the "Windscreen /
Rearscreen wiper” paragraph in the
"Getting to know your vehicle” chapter).
Check that external equipment is fixed
properly (additional lamps, rearview
mirrors) and remove the radio aerial (for
versions/markets where provided).
Headlight cleaning
Since the headlights are equipped with
plastic materials, use a soft cloth or
cotton pad. If this is not sufficient, wet it
slightly with soapy water, then rinse with
a soft cloth or cotton. Finish by drying
delicately with a soft, dry cloth. Do not
use alcohol-based products.
Windows
(e.g.: the instrument panel, clock,
outside temperature display panel,
radio display panel, multi-media or
multi-function display panel, etc.)
Use a soft, cotton cloth. If this is not
sufficient, use a soft cloth (or a cotton
pad) slightly wetted with soapy water,
then rinse with a soft cloth or wet
cotton.Finish by drying delicately with a soft,
dry cloth.
Do not use alcohol-based products
and/or nebulisers on the area.
WARNING
210)In order to preserve the aesthetic
appearance of the paint, abrasive products
and/or polishes should not be used for
cleaning the vehicle.
211)Avoid washing with rollers and/or
brushes in washing stations. Wash the
vehicle only by hand using neutral pH
detergents; dry it with a dampened
chamois leather. Abrasive products and/or
polishes should not be used for cleaning
the vehicle. Bird droppings must be
washed off immediately and thoroughly as
the acid they contain is particularly
aggressive. Avoid (if at all possible) parking
the vehicle under trees; remove vegetable
resins immediately as, when dried, it may
only be possible to remove them with
abrasive products and/or polishes, which is
highly inadvisable as they could alter the
typical opaqueness of the paint. Do not
use pure windscreen washer fluid for
cleaning the front windscreen and rear
window; dilute it min. 50% with water. Only
use pure screen washer fluid when strictly
necessary due to outside temperature
conditions.
IMPORTANT
7)Detergents pollute the environment. The
vehicle should be washed in areas
equipped for collecting and purifying the
liquid used in the washing process.
