KNOWING YOUR VEHICLE
In-depth knowledge of your new vehicle
starts here.
The booklet that you are reading simply
and directly explains how it is made
and how it works.
That’s why we advise you to read it
seated comfortably on board, so that
you can see what is described here for
yourself.SYMBOLS ...................................... 8

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
recirculation constantly on or constantly
off);
to speed up demisting/
defrosting the windscreen, rearscreen
and external rear-view mirrors.

KNOWING YOUR VEHICLE

Turn the knob D to the maximum
heating position (knob at red
sector);warm air will emerge (with the
engine warmed up), from the rear
footwell outlets (located under the seats
in the 2nd and 3rd row for Panorama
versions and the grille on the left wheel
arch side for Combi versions).
ADDITIONAL REAR
CLIMATE CONTROL
(Panorama and Combi)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The Panorama and Combi versions
are equipped with a main heating/air
conditioning system plus an additional
system (available on request) with
controls in the roof panel trim above the
second row of seats fig. 64. Button F
fig. 65 on the control panel must be
enabled for operation; the air
conditioning only works if the main air
conditioner is on.
When the knob D is placed in the
fully cold position (control in blue sector)
cold air comes out the vents in the
ceiling.
Turn the knob D to the maximum
heating position (knob at red
sector);warm air will emerge (with the
engine warmed up), from the rear
footwell outlets (located under the seats
in the 2nd and 3rd row for Panorama
versions and the grille on the left wheel
arch side for Combi versions).
If the selector knob D is placed in
the intermediate positions, the air
will be distributed between the vents in
the ceiling and the rear footwell vents,
varying the temperature.
IMPORTANT If the compressor on the
main air conditioner control is turned on
(operation of button E), even if the
additional air conditioner fan is in
position 0, the 1st speed will
automatically be activated to prevent
ice formation, with possible damage to
the component.
WARNING
34)The heater burns fuel in the same way
as the engine, though to a lesser extent. To
prevent poisoning and asphyxiation, the
supplementary heater must never be
turned on, not even for short periods, in
closed environments such as a garage or
workshops without extraction fans for
the exhaust gases.
ELECTRIC WINDOWS
ELECTRIC
Switches fig. 66 on the inner armrest of
the driver's door control the following
with the ignition key in the MAR-ON
position:
A: left front window opening/closing;
B: right front window opening/closing.
Continuous automatic operation
All versions are equipped with
automatic raising and lowering of the
front, driver's side window.
Keep one of the buttons pressed for
longer than half a second to operate
the automatic continuous window
operation function. The window stops
when it reaches the end of travel
position, or when the button is pressed
again.

START&STOP
SYSTEM
IN BRIEF
The Start&Stop device automatically
stops the engine each time the
vehicle is stationary and all the
conditions for automatic switch-off
have been met, and starts it again
when the driver wants to move off.
This improves the efficiency of the
vehicle by reducing fuel consumption,
the emission of harmful gases and
noise pollution.
OPERATING MODE
Stopping the engine
Versions with mechanical gearbox
With the vehicle stationary, the engine
stops with the gearbox in neutral and
the clutch pedal released.
Restarting the engine
Versions with mechanical gearbox
Depress the clutch pedal to restart
the engine.MANUAL ACTIVATION
AND DEACTIVATION OF
THE SYSTEM
To activate/deactivate the system
manually, press the
button on the
dashboard control panel.

118) 119)
WARNING
24)If the vehicle is equipped with manual
climate control, if you want to favour
climate comfort, the Start&Stop system
can be deactivated for continuous climate
control system operation.
WARNING
118)The vehicle should always be
evacuated after the key has been removed
or turned to the STOP position. When
refuelling, make sure that the car is
switched off with the key in the STOP
position.
119)If the battery needs to be replaced,
always contact a Fiat Dealership. The
replacement battery should be of the same
type (L6 105Ah/850A) and should have
the same characteristics.
CRUISE CONTROL
(constant speed
regulator)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
IN BRIEF
This is an electronic driving aid that
allows you to drive at a speed of
above 30 km/h on long and straight
dry roads with few driving changes
(e.g. motorways) at a preset speed
without having to press the
accelerator pedal. It is therefore not
recommended to use this device
on extra-urban roads with traffic. Do
not use the device in town.
Turning the device on
Turn the ring A fig. 110 - fig. 111 to the
ON position or
(depending on the
version).
The Cruise Control cannot be engaged
in 1st or reverse gear. It is advisable
to engage it in 4th or higher gears.
When travelling downhill with the device
engaged, the vehicle speed may
slightly exceed the stored one.

SAVING FUEL
GENERAL INFORMATION
The general factors that affect fuel
consumption are listed below.
Vehicle maintenance
Tyres
Unnecessary loads
Roof rack/ski rack
Electric devices
Climate control system
Devices for aerodynamic control
DRIVING STYLE
The main driving styles that affect fuel
consumption are listed below.
Starting
Do not warm up the engine at low or
high revs when the vehicle is stationary;
this causes the engine to warm up
more slowly, thereby increasing fuel
consumption and emissions.
Unnecessary actions
Avoid accelerating when stopped at
traffic lights or before switching off the
engine.Gear selection
In the same way improper use of a high
gear increases consumption, emissions
and engine wear.
Top speed
Fuel consumption increases
considerably with speed.
Acceleration
Accelerating violently will greatly affect
consumption and emissions:
acceleration should be gradual.
CONDITIONS OF USE
The main usage conditions that
negatively affect fuel consumption are
listed below.
Cold starting
Short journeys and frequent cold starts
do not allow the engine to reach
optimum operating temperature.
Traffic and road conditions
Rather high consumption levels are
linked to situations with heavy traffic, for
instance when travelling in queues
with frequent use of the lower gears or
in cities with many traffic lights. Winding
mountain roads and rough road
surfaces also adversely affect
consumption.Stops in traffic
During prolonged hold-ups (e.g. level
crossings) the engine should be
switched off.
