4 further intermediate positions are also possible in the 5 main distributions described above.
F - Heated rear window on/off button;
Selecting the windscreen air distribution activates the climate control system compressor (LED on A/C button on) and the air
recirculation is set to "outside air" (LED on button B off). This logic guarantees optimum visibility at the windows. The driver can
always set air recirculation and climate control system compressor.
Additional heater(where provided)
The additional heater ensures more rapid passenger compartment heating.
It activates in cold weather conditions, if the following conditions are verified:
outside temperature low;
engine coolant temperature low;
engine started;
fan speed set at least to 1stspeed;
knob C turned completely clockwise to red section.
The heater is switched off when at least one of the conditions above is no longer verified.
The power of the electric heater is modulated according to the battery voltage.

SWIVEL OPENING
To bring the roof into "swivel" position,
press and release button B fig. 40.
This type of swivel-opening can be
activated irrespective of the position of
the sun roof. When starting with the
roof in closed position, pressing the
button automatically causes its
swivel-opening. If the roof is already
open, the button must be held until the
roof reaches the swivel-opening
position.
Pressing button B again during
automatic movement of the roof will
stop it.
SUN BLIND MOVEMENT
The blind is manually-operated: it can
be stopped in any position.
ANTI-PINCH DEVICE
The sun roof has an anti-pinch safety
system capable of detecting the
presence of an obstacle during the
closing movement: if this happens, the
system intervenes and the movement of
the roof is immediately reversed into
opening.
EMERGENCY OPERATION
If the control buttons fail to operate, the
sun roof can be moved manually,
proceeding as described below:
remove protective cap A fig. 41 on
the internal trim;
take Allen key B provided;
place Allen key B into housing A;
turn Allen key B in a clockwise
direction to open the roof or in an
anticlockwise direction to close it.
INITIALISATION
PROCEDURE
After irregular behaviour of the sun roof
or an emergency manoeuvre (see
description in the previous paragraph),
the automatic operation of the sun roof
must be initialised again.
Proceed as follows:
press button A fig. 40 to bring the
roof into completely closed position;
bring the ignition device to STOP
and wait at least 10 seconds;
bring the ignition device to MAR;
hold button A down for at least
10 seconds, then you should hear the
mechanical stop of the roof motor;
within 5 seconds hold button A
down: the roof will perform a complete
automatic opening and closing cycle (to
indicate that the initialisation procedure
has been successful). If this does not
occur, the procedure must be restarted
from the beginning.
WARNING
22)When leaving the vehicle, always
remove the key (where present) from the
ignition to avoid the risk of injury due to
accidental operation of the sun roof.
Improper use of the roof can be
dangerous. Before and during operation,
always check that no-one is exposed to
the risk of being injured by the moving
sunroof or by objects getting caught or hit
by it.
IMPORTANT
11)Do not open the sun roof if a roof rack
or crossbars are fitted. Do not open the
sun roof if there is snow or ice on it: you
may damage it.

DRIVE MODE
The device allows the driver to
select three different driving
modes (car response) according to their
needs and to the road and traffic
conditions, by manually adjusting the
central tunnel knob ring nut A fig. 104.
- "Auto" mode
- "Traction" mode (4x4 or
4x2 versions depending on the trim
level)
- "All Weather" mode (only
4x2 versions depending on the trim
level)
- "Sport" mode.The device, through the on-board
electronic system, operates on the
dynamic control systems of the car:
engine, steering, ESC system,
4x4 system (if available),
gearbox/transmission, and is interfaced
with the instrument panel.
The rotating ring nut is monostable
type. In other words, it always returns
to the central position when released.
The acceptance by the system of the
requested driving mode is signalled by
the LED, located besides the symbol,
coming on, and by the corresponding
symbol appearing on the instrument
panel display.
When the engine is started, the system
usually maintains the driving mode that
was active before the engine was
stopped. For versions/markets where
provided, on start-up, the system is set
to the "Auto" mode.
"Auto" MODE
Recommended mode for normal
driving, aimed at comfort and safety in
normal grip and driving conditions. On
4x4 versions, this mode also reduces
fuel consumption, since it automatically
disconnects the transmission from the
rear wheels if the road and driving
conditions allow it, in addition to
changing drive torque distribution
between the front and rear axles.
Activation
Starting from the active "Traction/All
Weather" mode, turn the ring nut
anticlockwise, keeping it in this position
for at least half a second, and in any
case until the relevant LED turns on,
and the selected mode is shown on the
display. The LED for the previously set
mode will simultaneously turn off. Upon
release, the ring nut will return to the
central position.
Starting from the active "Sport" mode,
turn the ring nut clockwise, keeping it in
this position for at least half a second,
and in any case until the relevant LED
turns on, and the selected mode is
shown on the display. The LED for the
previously set mode will simultaneously
turn off. Upon release, the ring nut will
return to the central position.

STARTING AND DRIVING
(where provided)
MOOD SELECTOR/

"Traction"/"All Weather"
MODE
It is a driving mode for safety in poor
vehicle grip conditions (wet/slippery
road surface, rain, snow). On the
4x4 versions use is also recommended
on unsurfaced roads or off-road.
Activation
Starting from the active "Auto" mode,
turn the ring nut clockwise, keeping it in
this position for at least half a second,
and in any case until the relevant LED
turns on, and the selected mode is
shown on the display. The LED for the
previously set mode will simultaneously
turn off. Upon release, the ring nut will
return to the central position.
Starting from the active "Sport" mode,
turn the ring nut anticlockwise, keeping
it in this position for at least half a
second, and in any case until the
relevant LED turns on, and the selected
mode is shown on the display. The LED
for the previously set mode will
simultaneously turn off. Upon release,
the ring nut will return to the central
position.
"Sport" MODE
It is the mode that emphasises the
pleasure of sport driving; it increases
fuel consumption however. Traction is
optimised on 4x4 versions, allowing the
vehicle road-hold performance to be
improved, even on bends.
Activation
Starting from the active "Auto" mode,
turn the ring nut anticlockwise, keeping
it in this position for at least half a
second, and in any case until the
relevant LED turns on, and the selected
mode is shown on the display. The LED
for the previously set mode will
simultaneously turn off. Upon release,
the ring nut will return to the central
position.
Starting from the active "Traction/All
Weather" mode, turn the ring nut
clockwise, keeping it in this position for
at least half a second, and in any case
until the relevant LED turns on, and the
selected mode is shown on the display.
The LED for the previously set mode will
simultaneously turn off. Upon release,
the ring nut will return to the central
position.
FAULT INDICATIONS
In the case of system and selector
faults, the mode change option will be
automatically disabled. The system will
automatically set itself to "Auto" mode.
In these cases the display will show a
dedicated warning. Go to a Fiat
Dealership as soon as possible to have
the system checked.
