to the natural tendency of heat to
spread upwards, this type of
distribution warms the passenger
compartment up as quickly as
possible, providing an immediate
feeling of warmth;
distribution between footwell
diffusers and windscreen/front
side window vents. This type of

which is compatible with the laws 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
