L - passenger side temperature adjustment knob;
M - SYNC function activation button (alignment of set temperatures), driver/passenger side;
N - AUTO function activation button (automatic operation).
Auto On Comfort
(where provided)
The rear window heater is switched on automatically whenever the engine is started and the outside temperature is lower than
4.4°C. This function can be activated and deactivated using theUconnect™system Menu.
Air distribution selection
Air flow to the windscreen and front side window diffusers to demist/defrost them.
Air flow at central and side dashboard vents to ventilate the chest and the face during the hot season.
Air flow to the front and rear footwell diffusers. This air distribution setting heats the passenger compartment most quickly,
giving a prompt sensation of warmth.
+Air flow distributed between footwell diffusers (hotter air) and central and side dashboard vents (cooler air). This
distribution setting is useful in spring and autumn on sunny days.
+Air flow distributed between footwell vents and windscreen and front side vents. This distribution setting allows the
passenger compartment to be warmed up efficiently and prevents the windows from misting up.
+Air flow distributed between central and side dashboard vents and windscreen and front side window vents. This
distribution allows air to be sent to the windscreen in conditions of strong sunlight.
++Air flow distribution to all diffusers on the vehicle.
In AUTO mode, the climate control system automatically manages air distribution (the LEDs on buttons H are off). When set
manually, the air distribution is indicated by the LEDs on the selected buttons switching on. In combined function mode the
relevant function is enabled simultaneously with those already set by pressing the corresponding button. If a button whose
function is already active is pressed, its operation is cancelled and the corresponding LED switches off. To restore automatic
control of the air distribution after a manual selection, press the AUTO button.
Start&Stop
The automatic dual zone climate control system manages the Start&Stop system (engine off when car speed is 0 km/h) to
ensure adequate comfort inside the car. When the Start&Stop system is on (engine off and car at a standstill), the automatic
recirculation management is turned off always taking air in from outside, to reduce the probability of the windows misting up (as
the compressor is off).

correctly closed. This operation locks all
doors and arms the alarm (where
provided).
BOOT INITIALISATION
IMPORTANT If the battery is
disconnected or the protection fuse
blows, the boot opening/closing
mechanism must be reinitialised as
follows:
close all the doors and the boot;
press the"FIAT" button on the
remote control;

LOAD COMPARTMENT
FEATURES
Reconfigurable load platform
12)
The car is equipped with a
reconfigurable load platform A, which
makes the boot volume modular:
The load platform can be set to
2 different positions:
Floor level (low)fig. 48: allows use
of the full luggage compartment
capacity.
Sill level (high)fig. 49: combined
with folding the rear seats and front
passenger seat, it allows long items to
be loaded and also makes
loading/unloading items in the luggage
compartment easier. It also allows the
space underneath (double bottom) to
be used as a further compartment for
stowing objects which are more fragile
or small.
The load platform can also be tilted,
and is equipped with a washable plastic
surface, useful for instance for
transporting wet or muddy items.
IMPORTANT Movements of the load
platform must take place in a central
position relative to the luggage
compartment.

GENERAL
INSTRUCTIONS
Before replacing a bulb check the
contacts for oxidation;
replace blown bulbs with others of
the same type and power;
after replacing a headlight bulb,
always check its alignment;
when a light is not working, check
that the corresponding fuse is intact
before replacing the bulb. For the
location of fuses, refer to the paragraph
“Replacing fuses” in this chapter.
IMPORTANT When the weather is cold
or damp or after heavy rain or washing,
the surface of headlights or rear lights
may steam up and/or form drops of
condensation on the inside. This is a
natural phenomenon due to the
difference in temperature and humidity
between the inside and the outside of
the glass which does not indicate a
fault and does not compromise the
normal operation of lighting devices.The mist disappears quickly when the
lights are turned on, starting from the
centre of the diffuser, extending
progressively towards the edges.

IN AN EMERGENCY

NOTE Before removing the lens unit,
put a protection (e.g. cloth) on the tip of
the screwdriver, in order not to damage
the lens itself.
WARNING
139)Before replacing the bulb, wait for the
exhaust ducts to cool down: DANGER OF
SCALDING!
140)Modifications or repairs to the electric
system that are not carried out properly or
do not take the system technical
specifications into account can cause
malfunctions leading to the risk of fire.
141)Halogen bulbs contain pressurised
gas, in the case of breakage they may
burst causing glass fragments to be
projected outwards.142)Only replace the light bulbs when the
engine is off and in a position that does not
interfere with traffic and lets you safely
replace them (see the description in the
“Replacement” paragraph). Also ensure
that the engine is cold, to prevent the risk
of burns.
IMPORTANT
72)Halogen bulbs must be handled
holding the metallic part only. Touching the
transparent part of the bulb with your
fingers may reduce the intensity of the
emitted light and even reduce the lifespan
of the bulb. In the event of accidental
contact, wipe the bulb with a cloth
moistened with alcohol and let the bulb dry.

Fuses protect the electrical system:
they intervene (blow) in the event of a
failure or improper action on the
system.
Fuse extracting pliers
To replace a fuse, use the pliers hooked
to the side of the engine compartment
fuse box cover (see fig. 130 ).
The pliers have two different ends,
specifically designed to remove the
different types of fuses present in the
vehicle.
To take out the pliers, grab them from
the upper tabs, press and pull upwards.
After being used, the pliers should be
positioned properly in their housing,
grabbing them from the upper tabs,
pressing and pushing them until a click
is heard.
