2017 FIAT QUBO window

RAPID WINDSCREEN AND FRONT SIDE
WINDOWS DEMISTING/DEFROSTING
(MAX-DEF function)
Proceed as follows:
turn knob A to
turn knob C to
turn knob D to
take the slider B to.
After demisting/defrosting, operate the controls as
normal to restore the required comfort.
IMPORTANT The climate control system is very
useful for faster demisting because it dries the air.
Adjust the controls as described above and engage
the climate control by pressing knob C.
Window demisting
In the event of considerable external moisture
and/or rain and/or large differences in the
temperature inside and outside the passenger
compartment, perform the following preventive
window demisting procedure:
take the slider B to
turn knob A to
turn knob C to 2
turn knob D towith the option of moving to
position
if there is no sign of the windows
steaming up.REGULATING THE FAN SPEED
To ventilate the passenger compartment properly,
proceed as follows:
fully open the central and side air vents
knob A turned to blue section
take the slider B to
turn knob C to the required speed
turn knob D to
INTERNAL AIR RECIRCULATION
ACTIVATION
Take the slider B to
.
It is advisable to switch the internal air recirculation
on while standing in queues or in tunnels to prevent
the introduction of polluted air.
Do not use the function for a long time, particularly
if there are several passengers on board, to prevent
the windows from steaming up.
IMPORTANT IMPORTANT The air recirculation
system makes it possible to reach the required
heating or cooling conditions faster. Do not use the
air recirculation function on rainy/cold days as it
would considerably increase the possibility of the
windows misting.
CLIMATE CONTROL (cooling)
Proceed as follows:

DEMISTING/DEFROSTING OF HEATED
REAR WINDSCREEN AND DOOR MIRRORS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Press button
fig. 36 to activate the function. The
LED on the button comes on to indicate activation.Press
again to disable the function in advance.
IMPORTANT Do not apply stickers on the inside of
the rear window over the heating filaments to avoid
damage that might cause it to stop working properly.
SUPPLEMENTARY HEATER
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This device warms up the passenger compartment
more quickly when it is very cold and the engine
coolant temperature is low.
The additional heater comes on automatically when
the engine is started, if knob A is turned to the
last red sector and the fan (knob C) is at least at the
first speed level.
The additional heater turns off automatically after
reaching the required comfort conditions.
IMPORTANT The heater will not turn on if the
battery voltage is too low.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
Run the climate control system for at least 10
minutes every month during the winter. Have the
system inspected at a Fiat Dealership before the
summer.

WINDOW CLEANING
The right stalk fig. 39 controls windscreen
wiper/washer and heated rear window wiper/washer
operation (for versions/markets, where provided).
WINDSCREEN WIPER/WASHER
This only operates with the ignition turned to MAR.
The right stalk can assume five different positions:
windscreen wiper still.
intermittent operation.
continuous slow flick.
continuous fast flick.
Move the stalk to position fig. 39 (unstable) to limit
operation to the time for which the stalk is held
in this position.
When released, the stalk will return to its default
position and the wiper will be automatically stopped.With the twist switch at
, the windscreen wiper
will automatically adapt to the speed of the vehicle.
With the windscreen wipers working, if reverse gear
is engaged, the rear window wiper is automatically
activated.
Do not use the windscreen wipers to
remove layers of snow or ice from the
windscreen. In such conditions, the
windscreen wipers may be subjected to excessive
stress, prompting intervention from the motor
protection which prevents operation for a few
seconds. Contact the Fiat Dealership if operation
is not restored.
“Smart washing” function
Pull the stalk towards the steering wheel (temporary
position) to operate the windscreen washer jet.
Keeping the stalk pulled for more than half a second,
with just one movement it is possible to operate
the washer jet and the wiper at the same time.
The wiper stops working three strokes after the
stalk is released.
A further stroke after approx. 6 seconds completes
the wiping cycle.

off;
in synchronous mode (at half the speed of the
windscreen wiper) when the windscreen wiper
is on;
in continuous mode with reverse gear engaged
and the control active.
With the windscreen wiper on and reverse gear
engaged, rear window wiping will be continuous.
Pushing the stalk towards the dashboard (temporary
position) the rear window washer jet will activate.
Keeping the stalk pushed for more than half a second
also the rear window wiper will activate. Releasing
the stalk will activate the smart washing function, as
described for the windscreen wiper.Deactivation
The function stops when the stalk is released.
Do not use the rear window wiper to
removelayersofsnoworice.In
such conditions, the wiper may be
subjected to excessive stress and the motor
protection, which prevents operation for a few

FRONT ELECTRIC WINDOWS
(for versions/markets, where provided)
There are buttons fig. 62 on the driver side door
panel trim which control the following functions,
with the ignition key turned to MAR-ON:
A: Opening/closing left window
B: Opening/closing right window
Push button A or B to open the appropriate window.
Lift button A or B to close the appropriate window.
When one of the two buttons is pressed briefly,
the window moves in stages; if the button is held
down, "continuous automatic" operation is activated
both for closing and opening. Press button A or B
again to stop the window in its current position.
The electric windows are fitted with a security
system (for versions/markets, where provided) that
can detect the presence of an obstacle whilst the
window is closing; when this happens, the system
kicks in and the movement of the glass is
immediately reversed.
IMPORTANT The system will automatically enter
“recovery” mode (self-protection) if the anti-crushing
function is activated 5 times in only one minute.
This condition is apparent because the window
closing in stages.
If this occurs, restore the system as follows:
open the windows;or
turn the key off (STOP position) and then on
(MAR).
If no malfunction is present, the window returns to
its normal operation automatically.
IMPORTANT With the key off or removed, the
windows remain activated for about two minutes and
are deactivated as soon a door is opened.

WARNING
Improper use of the electric windows
can be dangerous. Before and during
their operation ensure that passengers are not
at risk from the moving glass, either by personal
objects caught in the mechanism or struck by
it directly. When leaving the car, always remove
the ignition key to avoid the risk of injury due
to accidental operation of the electric
windows.
MANUAL FRONT WINDOWS
On some versions, the front windows are opened
and closed manually.
Wind the handle to open/close.

SAVING FUEL
Some useful tips are given below for fuel saving and
reducing harmful emissions of CO2 and other
pollutants (nitrogen oxides, unburnt hydrocarbons,
Particulate Matter (PM) etc.).
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
The general factors that affect fuel consumption are
listed below.
Vehicle maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried out in
accordance with the “Scheduled Servicing Plan”.
Ty r e s
Check the tyre pressure at least once every four
weeks: if the pressure is too low, consumption levels
increase as resistance to rolling is higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded boot. The weight
of the vehicle (especially when driving in town)
and its trim greatly affect fuel consumption
and stability.
Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack from the roof
after use. These accessories reduce the aerodynamic
coefficient of the vehicle and have a negative effecton fuel consumption. It is better to use a trailer to
transport particularly bulky objects.
Electric devices
Only use electrical devices for the amount of time
needed. The heated rear window, additional
headlights, windscreen/rear window wipers and
heater fan need a considerable amount of energy,
therefore increasing fuel consumption (by up to 25%
in the urban cycle).
Climate control system
The air conditioner leads to higher fuel consumption
(on average up to +20%). If the temperature outside
is not too extreme, try and use the air vents.
Spoilers
The use of non-certified spoilers may adversely affect
aerodynamics and fuel consumption.
