CLIMATIC COMFORT
Knob D enables the air introduced into
the vehicle to reach all areas of the
passenger compartment through five
distribution options:
delivers air from central and side
vents
warms the feet and keeps the face
cool (bi-level function)
warms up the passenger
compartment faster
warms up the passenger
compartment and demists the
windscreen at the same time
demists and defrosts the
windscreen and front side
windows.
ADDITIONAL 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 the required comfort
conditions are achieved.IMPORTANT The heater will not turn on
if the battery voltage is too low.
WARNING
2)The air conditioning system uses R134a
or R1234yf refrigerant compatible with
the regulations in force in the countries
where the vehicle is sold. 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.

slowly for approximately 24 hours at
low amperage. Charging for a longer
time may damage the battery.
To recharge, proceed as follows:
without Start&Stop system:
disconnect the terminal from the
negative battery pole;
connect the charger cables to the
battery terminals, observing the polarity;
turn on the battery charger;
when it is recharged, turn the
charger off before disconnecting it from
the battery;
reconnect the terminal to the
negative battery pole.with Start&Stop system: fig. 177
(for versions/markets, where provided)
disconnect the quick release
negative terminal A from the dummy
negative terminal B; this is because
a battery status monitoring sensor IBS
D is fitted on the negative battery
terminal C and should never be
disconnected except for when the
battery is actually replaced;
connect the positive cable of the
charger to the positive pole E of the
battery and the negative cable to the
dummy negative terminal B;
turn on the battery charger;
when you have recharged, turn the
charger off before disconnecting it from
the battery;
after disconnecting the charger,
reconnect the negative quick release
negative terminal A from the dummy
pole B.with Start&Stop (RADSOK) system:
fig. 178
(for versions/markets, where provided)
disconnect the connector A (by
pressing button B) from IBS sensor C
for monitoring the status of the battery
installed on the negative pole D of
the battery itself;

positive battery terminal E and the
negative terminal to the IBS sensor F as
