Air flow distributed between
footwell diffusers (hotter air)
and central and side
dashboard vents (cooler air).
This distribution mode is
particularly useful in spring and
autumn on sunny days.
Air flow distributed between
the footwell vents and the
windscreen and front
side window defrosting/
demisting vents. This allows an
adequate warming of the
passenger compartment and
prevents the windows from
misting up.
The distribution set is shown by the
corresponding LEDs in the selected
buttons coming on.
To restore automatic control of the air
distribution after a manual selection,
press the AUTO button.
Fan speed adjusting buttons (H)
Press the H button at its ends to
increase or to decrease the fan speed
and therefore the amount of air sent
into the passenger compartment,
though the required temperature
remains set.
The fan speed is shown by the lit bars
on the display:
Maximum fan speed = all the bars lit
up
Minimum fan speed = one bar lit up.
The fan can only be excluded if the
climate control compressor has been
switched off by pressing button F
fig. 76.
WARNING To restore automatic fan
speed control after a manual
adjustment, press the AUTO button.
IMPORTANT At high vehicle speeds,
the dynamic effect may increase the
flow of air into the passenger
compartment which in this case will not
directly correspond to the fan speed
bar display.
AUTO button (A) (automatic
operation)
Press AUTO to make the system
automatically adjust the quantity and
distribution of the air introduced into the
passenger compartment. All previous
manual settings will be cancelled.
The message FULL AUTO appears on
the front display.
By manually adjusting at least one of
the functions automatically managed by
the system (air recirculation, air
distribution, fan speed or switching off
the compressor), the word FULL will
disappear from the display, indicating
that the system is no longer
automatically controlling all the
functions (the temperature will still be
controlled automatically).IMPORTANT Should the system (after
manual intervention) no longer be
able to guarantee the target
temperature for the passenger
compartment, the set temperature
value will start flashing to indicate the
difficulties the system is experiencing
and then the word AUTO will go out.
To restore system automatic control at
any time, after one or more manual
adjustments, press the AUTO button.
Air recirculation on/off button (G)
The air recirculation is managed
according to the following operating
logic:
forced activation (inside air
recirculation always on): indicated by
the LED on button G and the
symbol on the display;
forced disengagement (air
recirculation permanently off with air
intake from the outside), signalled
by the LED in the button and the
symbol
on the display going off.
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.
51
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 and door
mirrors 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 off 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.
WARNING
3)The air conditioning system uses
refrigerant R134a or R1234yf compatible
with the current regulations in the countries
where the vehicle is marketed. When
charging, only use the gas indicated on the
dedicated plate in the engine compartment
. The use of other coolants affects the
efficiency and condition of the system. The
lubricant used for the compressor is also
strictly linked to the type of cooling gas,
please refer to a Fiat Dealership.

WARNING
35)If you are travelling in areas with few
filling stations and you want to transport
fuel in a spare tank, comply with the law by
using only an approved, suitably secured
tank. However, the risks of fire in the case
of collision increase anyway.
36)Never exceed the maximum allowed
load in the boot, see the “Technical
specifications” chapter. Also make sure
that the objects you place in the boot have
been properly secured, to avoid them
from being thrown forward consequent to
sudden braking and injuring your
passengers.

39)You must not use the folded rear seat
to carry luggage. The load could be thrown
forward into the backrest of the front
seats, seriously injuring the occupants.
40)Make sure that the objects are
positioned carefully and fixed to the hooks
on the floor to prevent them being flung
forwards in the event of sharp braking and
causing injury to the passengers.

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.

PROTECTING THE
ENVIRONMENT
The following devices are used for
reducing petrol fuel engine emissions:
three-way catalytic converter
(catalytic converter);
oxygen sensors;
evaporation control system.
In addition, do not let the engine run,
even for a test, with one or more spark
plugs disconnected.
The following devices are used for
reducing diesel fuel engine emissions:
oxidising catalytic converter;
exhaust gas recirculation system
(EGR);
particulate filter (DPF) (for versions/
markets, where provided).
DIESEL PARTICULATE
FILTER (DPF)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The Diesel Particulate Filter is a
mechanical filter, integral with the
exhaust system, that physically traps
carbon particles present in the exhaust
gases of diesel engines.
The diesel particulate filter has been
adopted to eliminate almost all carbon
particles in compliance with current /
future legal regulations.During normal use of the vehicle, the
Powertrain Control Module records
a set of data (travel time, type of route,
temperatures reached etc.) and
calculates how much particulate has
been trapped by the filter.
Since this filter physically traps
particulate, it should be regenerated
(cleaned) at regular intervals by burning
carbon particles. The regeneration
procedure is controlled automatically by
the Powertrain Control Module
according to the filter conditions and
vehicle usage conditions.
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".
