position to keep the windscreen and
side windows clear and quickly remove
fog or frost from the windscreen. If high
cooling performance is desired, or if the
outside air is dusty or otherwise
contaminated use the recirculation
position. Switch to the outside position
periodically to increase ventilation so
that the windows do not become
fogged up.
When the engine coolant temperature
rises to a certain level, the air selection
is automatically switched to the
recirculation position and the indicator
lamp (A) comes on. At this time, the
system will not switch to the outside
position even if the air selection switch

NOTE The demister switch is not to
melt snow but to clear mist. Remove
snow before use of the demister switch.
NOTE To avoid unnecessary discharge
of the battery, do not use the rear
window demister during starting of the
engine or when the engine is not
running. Turn the demister off
immediately after the window is clear.
NOTE When cleaning the inside of the
rear window, use a soft cloth and wipe
gently along the heater wires, being
careful not to damage the wires.
NOTE Do not allow objects to touch
the inside of the rear window glass,
damaged or broken wires may result.
Customizing the automatic rear
window demister (for vehicles
equipped with the rear window
demister switch - Automatic type)
Function can be changed as desired,
as stated below.
Enable automatic rear window
demister — If the outside air
temperature drops below approx. 3 °C
(37 °F), the rear window demister
operates once automatically after the
engine starts. The heated mirrors will
also operate once automatically at the
same time.
Disable automatic rear window
demister — The rear window demister
does not operate automatically. The
heated mirrors will not operate
automatically as well.
Setting change method — Hold
down the rear window demister switch
for about 10 seconds or more. When
the setting is changed from enable to
disable 3 sounds are emitted and the
indicator lamp flashes 3 times. When
the setting is changed from disable to
enable 2 sounds are emitted and the
indicator lamp flashes 3 times.
NOTE The factory setting is “Disable
automatic rear window demister”.
WARNING
67)For safety, make sure you have a clear
view through all windows.
68)Use of the recirculation position for an
extended time may cause the windows to
fog up.
IMPORTANT
22)The engine speed may increase when
the air conditioning is operating. With an
increased engine speed, an A/T vehicle will
creep to a greater degree than with a lower
engine speed. Fully depress the brake
pedal to prevent the vehicle from creeping.
23)When using the air conditioning, the
idling speed may slightly increase as the air
conditioning compressor is switched on/off
automatically. While the vehicle with an
automatic transmission is stationary, fully
depress the brake pedal to prevent the
vehicle from creeping.24)When using the mode selection dial
between the
andpositions, prevent
fogging by moving the air selection lever to
select outside air (refer to “Air selection
lever”).
25)Use of the
(recirculation) position
for extended time may cause the windows
to fog up.
26)If the outside air is dusty or otherwise
contaminated, or if high cooling
performance is desired, set air selection
lever to the
(recirculation) position
and the temperature control dial all the way
to the right. Switch to the
(outside)
position periodically to increase ventilation
so that the windows do not become
fogged up.
IMPORTANT
2)The system uses a coolant that is
compatible with the laws in force in the
countries where the vehicle is sold, R134a
(indicated on a specific plate in the engine
compartment). The use of other coolants
affects the efficiency and condition of the
system. Also the compressor coolants
used must be compatible with the
indicated coolant.

If the DPF warning lamp comes on
during vehicle operation
Steady illumination of the DPF warning
lamp shows that the DPF has not been
able to burn away all of the trapped PM
and that, as a result, an excessive
amount of PM has accumulated inside
it. To enable the DPF to burn away the
PM, try to drive the vehicle as follows:
With the bar graph of engine coolant
temperature display stabilized in roughly
the middle of the scale, drive for
approximately 20 minutes at a speed of
at least 40 km/h.
28) 29)
IMPORTANT You do not have to
continuously drive exactly as indicated
above. Always strive to drive safely in
accordance with road conditions.If the DPF warning lamp flashes
during vehicle operation
Flashing of the DPF warning lamp
indicates an abnormality in the DPF
system. Have the system inspected by
a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
78)The diesel particulate filter (DPF)
reaches high temperatures during normal
operation. Do not park the vehicle on
flammable material (grass, dry leaves, pine
needles etc.): fire hazard.
IMPORTANT
27)Do not use any type of fuel or engine oil
that is not specified for your vehicle. Also,
do not use any moisture-removing agent or
other fuel additive. Such substances could
have a detrimental effect on the DPF. Refer
to “Fuel selection” and “Engine oil”.
28)Vehicle travel speed should always be
adapted to the traffic and weather
conditions, and must always comply with
traffic regulations. The engine can be
stopped even if the DPF symbol is on:
however, repeated interruptions of the
regeneration process could cause
premature deterioration of the engine oil.
For this reason it is always advisable to wait
for the symbol to go off before turning off
the engine, following the instructions
above. Do not complete the DPF
regeneration process when the vehicle is
stopped.29)Continuing to drive with the DPF
warning lamp flashing could result in engine
trouble and DPF damage.
