air flow distribution modes can be selected:
air flow to the windscreen and front side window
diffusers to demist or defrost them.air flow to central and side dashboard vents to
ventilate the chest and the face during the hot
season.towards the footwell diffusers. Due to the
natural tendency of heat to rise, this type of
distribution warms the passenger compartment
up as quickly as possible, providing an immediate
feeling of warmth.+
distribution between footwell diffusers
(warmest air) and dashboard vents (coolest
air).
+
distribution between footwell diffusers and
windscreen/front side window vents. This
type of distribution achieves effective
heating of the passenger compartment and
prevents the windows from misting up.

Have the system inspected at a Fiat Dealership
before the summer.
The system uses R134a coolant which
does not pollute the environment in the
event of accidental leakage. Never use
R12 fluid, which is not compatible with the
system components.
ADDITIONAL HEATER
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This allows the passenger compartment to be heated
more quickly in cold weather conditions. The heater
switches on automatically according to the
environmental conditions and with engine started
when the temperature of the engine coolant is low.
The additional heater turns off automatically after
the required comfort conditions are achieved.
The heater only operates if the outside temperature
and engine coolant temperature are low. The heater
will not activate if the battery voltage is too low.
Interaction of Automatic Climate Control
with START&STOP
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Automatic Climate Control
The automatic climate control manages the
Start&Stop function (engine off when the car speed
is zero) to guarantee adequate comfort inside the
passenger compartment.In particular, when the weather is extremely hot or
cold, the Start&Stop function is deactivated until
adequate passenger compartment comfort is
ensured. During these transitory stages the engine is
not stopped, even if the car speed is zero.
When the Start&Stop function is active (engine off at
zero car speed), the climate control system will
request the reactivation of the engine if the inside
temperature conditions rapidly deteriorate (or if the
user requests maximum cooling – LO – or quick
demisting – MAX DEF).
With Start&Stop function active (engine off at zero
car speed), the air flow rate (if managed
automatically) is reduced in order to maintain the
passenger compartment comfort conditions for
as long as possible.
The climate control system control unit manages the
decreased comfort caused by stopping the engine,
and consequently the compressor, as far as possible.
The operation of the climate control system can in
any case be favoured by deactivating the Start&Stop
function using the dedicated button on the
dashboard.
NOTE In particularly severe climate conditions it is
recommended to limit the use of the Start&Stop
function to prevent the compressor from
continuously switching on and off, with consequent
rapid misting of the windows and accumulation of
humidity with unpleasant smells in the passenger
compartment.
