dashboard warning lights FIAT PANDA 2014 319 / 3.G Owners Manual

Buttons A - Manual air distribution selection
By pressing the buttons, one of the five possible
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.
Button B
- MAX-DEF function activation
When thebutton is pressed the system activates
all the functions required for fast demisting/
defrosting:
❒compressor on (if the weather conditions are
suitable);
❒air recirculation off;
❒maximum air temperature setting (HI);❒fan speed determined according to the coolant
temperature;
❒air flow conveyed to thewindscreen and front side
windows;
Button C
- Climate control compressor
activation/deactivation
Pressing button C activates/deactivates climate
control:
❒LED on button on: compressor on;
❒LED on button off: compressor off.
When the compressor is off:
❒the system will deactivate air recirculation to
prevent the windows from misting up;
❒it is not possible to convey air to thepassenger
compartment with a temperature below the
outside temperature (the displayed temperature
value will flash when the system cannot guarantee
the requested comfort conditions);
❒the fan speed can be reset manually (with
compressor enabled, ventilation cannot go below a
bar shown on the display).
Button D
- Internal air recirculation
activation/deactivation
It is advisable to switch the internal air recirculation
on whilst queuing or in tunnels to prevent the
introduction of polluted air.
At low temperatures or if the compressor is off, the
recirculation is forced to off to prevent misting.

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.

AIR BAGSThe car is fitted with front air bags for driver and
passenger, front side bags for driver and passenger
chest-shoulder protection (for versions/markets,
where provided) and window bags for protecting the
heads of front occupants.
FRONT AIR BAGS
The front (driver and passenger) air bags protect the
front seat occupants in the event of head-on impacts
of medium-high severity, by placing the bag between
the occupant and the steering wheel or dashboard.
Therefore non-deployment in other types of impacts
(side impacts, rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.) does not
indicate a system malfunction.
Front (driver and passenger) air bags are not a
replacement of but complementary to the seat belts,
which you are recommended to always wear, as
specified by law in Europe and most non-European
countries.
In the event of an impact, those not wearing a seat
belt move forwards and may come into contact with
the bag which is still inflating. The protection offered
by the bag is compromised in these circumstances.
Front airbags may not deploy in the following
situations:❒frontal impacts against highly deformable objects
not involving the front surface of the car (e.g.
wing collision against guard rail, etc.);
❒car wedging under other vehicles or protective
barriers (e.g. trucks or guard rails);
they may not provide any additional protection
compared with seat belts, so their activation would
be inappropriate. In these cases, non-deployment
does not indicate a system malfunction.
WARNING
Do not apply stickers or other objects
on the steering wheel, on the dashboard
in the passenger side air bag area, on side
upholstery on roof and on the seats. Never put
objects (e.g. mobile phones) on the passenger's
side dashboard since they could interfere with
correct inflation of the air bag and also cause
serious injur y to the passengers.
Driver's front air bag
This consists of an instantly inflating bag contained in
a special recess in the centre of the steering wheel
fig. 104.

WARNING
Always drive keeping your hands on the
steering wheel rim so that the air bag
can inflate freely if necessary. Do not drive with
your body bent forward. Keep your back straight
against the backrest .
Passenger side front air bag
This consists of an instantly-inflating bag contained in
a special compartment in the dashboard fig. 105:
this bag has a larger volume than that on the driver's
side.
WARNING
SEVERE DANGER:When an active
passenger air bag is fitted, DO NOT
install backwards-facing child seats on
the front seat . Deployment of the air
bag following an impact could cause fatal
injuries to the child. Always deactivate the
passenger air bag if it is needed to place a child
seat on the front seat .The passenger seat must
also be slid back as far as possible in order to
avoid the child seat from coming into contact
with the dashboard. Although this is not
mandatory by law, the air bag should be
immediately reactivated when children are no
longer transpor ted to ensure better protection
for adults.
