INTERNAL AIR
RECIRCULATION
ACTIVATION
Press button E: when the function is
on, the button LED lights up.
It is advisable to switch the internal
air recirculation on while standing
in queues or in tunnels to prevent
the introduction of polluted air.
Do not use the function for a long
time, particularly if there are many
passengers on board, to prevent the
windows from misting up.
IMPORTANT The air recirculation
system makes it possible to reach
the required heating or cooling
conditions faster, depending on the
selected mode. It is not advisable
to switch the internal air recirculation
on when it is rainy/cold or the
windows might steam up, especially
if the climate control system is not
turned on.
CLIMATE CONTROL
SYSTEM (cooling)
Proceed as follows:
❒turn knob A to the blue section;
❒turn knob B to the required speed;
❒turn knob C to
;❒press the
and E buttons (button
LEDs on).
Adjusting cooling
Proceed as follows:
❒turn off internal air recirculation by
pressing button E (button LED off);
❒turn knob A rightwards to increase
the temperature;
❒turn knob B leftwards to reduce the
fan speed.
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
B) is at least at the first speed level.
The additional heater turns off
automatically after reaching the
required comfort conditions.
IMPORTANT The heater will not turn
on if the battery voltage is too low.SYSTEM SERVICING
In winter, the climate control system
must be turned on at least once a
month for about 10 minutes. Have
the system inspected at a Fiat
Dealership before the summer.

Climate control
compressor
enablement/off button
(F)
Press button
to switch the climate
control compressor off (if on). The
icon on the display will go out.
Press the button when the LED is off
to automatically restore system
control and use of the compressor.
The icon will light up in the display in
this case.
The system will switch recirculation
off when the compressor is
switched off to prevent windows
from misting up. Although the
system is capable of maintaining the
required temperature, the word
FULL will disappear from the display.
If, on the other hand, it is no longer
capable of maintaining the
temperature, the letters flash and
the word AUTO goes out.
IMPORTANT With the compressor
off, it is not possible to introduce air
cooler than ambient temperature
into the passenger compartment.
Furthermore, in certain conditions,
the windows could mist up rapidly
because the air is not dehumidified.The system remembers that the
compressor has been switched off,
even after the engine has stopped.
To restore automatic compressor
control, press thebutton again (in
this case, the system will only work
as a heater) or press the AUTO
button.
With the compressor switched off, if
the outside temperature is higher
than the one set, the system is not
capable of satisfying this request
and signals it by the digits for the
temperature setting flashing after
which the word AUTO goes out.
With the climate control compressor
off, the fan speed can be set to
zero manually (no bar shown).
With the compressor enabled and
the engine started, the fan speed
may be reduced to the minimum
setting (only one bar shown).Button for rapid
window demisting/
defrosting (D)
Pressing this button, the climate
control system will automatically
switch on all the functions required
for fast windscreen and front side
window demisting/defrosting:
❒switches on climate control
compressor when climatic conditions
are suitable;
❒sets air recirculation off;
❒sets maximum air temperature HI in
both areas;
❒sets the fan speed according to the
engine coolant temperature to limit
the flow of air that is not sufficiently
warm to demist the windows;
❒directs air flow to windscreen and
front side windows vents;
❒sets heated rear window on.
IMPORTANT The rapid demisting/
defrosting function for the windows
remains on for about 3 minutes from
when the engine coolant reaches
the appropriate temperature for
a rapid demisting of the windows.

IMPORTANT
22) For diesel engines, use only
diesel fuel for motor vehicles
in accordance with EN590
European specifications. The use
of other products or mixtures
may damage the engine beyond
repair and consequently invalidate
the warranty, due to the damage
caused. If you accidentally refuel
with another type of fuel, do not
start the engine, and drain the
tank. If the engine has run, even
for a very short time, you will need
to have the entire fuel supply
system emptied in addition to the
tank.
23) Do not bring naked flames or lit
cigarettes near the fuel tank filler:
fire risk. Keep your face away
from the fuel filler to prevent
breathing in harmful vapours.
SAVING FUEL
Some useful tips are given below for
fuel saving and reducing harmful
emissions of CO2 and other
pollutants (nitrogen oxides, unburnt
hydrocarbons, Particulate Matter
(PM), etc.).
PRACTICAL ADVICE
FOR REDUCING FUEL
CONSUMPTION AND
HARMFUL EMISSIONS
Vehicle conditions
❒Have checks and adjustments for
vehicle maintenancecarried out
in accordance with the “Scheduled
servicing plan”.
❒Checktyrepressure regularly, at
least once every four weeks.
Excessively low pressures will
increase consumption because
rolling resistance will be higher. In
addition, this wears the tyre more
quickly and impairs performance.
❒Only usesnow tyreswhen
the weather conditions make them
absolutely necessary. They increase
consumption and noise.❒Do not travel witha heavy load: the
weight of the vehicle (especially when
driving in town) and its geometry
greatly affect fuel consumption and
stability.
❒Removeroof racks or ski racks
after use. These accessories reduce
the vehicle's aerodynamic
penetration and have a negative
effect on fuel consumption.
❒When transporting particularly large
objects, use atrailerif possible.
❒Use the vehicle's air vents if possible:
travelling with the windows open
impairs aerodynamics.
❒Use electrical devices only for the
amount of time needed. The vehicle’s
heated rear window, additional
headlights, screen wipers and heater
fan require a considerable amount
of energy; this increases fuel
consumption (by up to +25% in an
urban cycle).
❒Air conditioning leads to higher fuel
consumption (on average up to
+30%). If the temperature outside is
not too extreme, try and use the
air vents.

STARTING AND DRIVING

If you put the vehicle through a car
wash, follow these
recommendations:
– remove the aerial from the roof so
it does not get damaged;
– water added to a soapy solution
should be used for washing;
– rinse thoroughly to avoid soap
marks staying on the bodywork or
less visible parts.
39)
Dry the less visible parts with special
care, such as the door frames,
bonnet and the headlight frames,
where water may stagnate more
easily. It is a good idea to leave the
vehicle outdoors for a while after
washing it to give water time to
evaporate.
Do not wash the vehicle after it has
been left in the sun or with the
bonnet hot: this may alter the shine
of the paintwork.Exterior plastic parts should be
cleaned in the same way as the rest
of the vehicle. Where possible, do
not park the vehicle under trees; the
resinous substances released by
many species give the paint a dull
appearance and increase the
possibility of corrosion.
IMPORTANT Bird droppings should
be washed off immediately and
thoroughly as the acid they contain
is particularly aggressive.6)
Windows
To clean glasses, use specific
cleaning products. Use clean cloths
to avoid scratching the glass or
damaging the transparency.
IMPORTANT Wipe the inside
surface of the rear window gently
with a cloth in the direction of the
filaments to avoid damaging the
heater coils.Engine compartment
At the end of each winter,
thoroughly wash the engine
compartment, taking care to avoid
spraying the water jet directly onto
the electronic control units and
the relay/fuse box on the left side of
the engine compartment (driving
direction). Have this operation
performed at a specialised
workshop.
IMPORTANT The washing should
take place with the engine cold and
the ignition key in the STOP
position. After the washing
operation, make sure that the
various protections (e.g. rubber
caps and guards) have not been
removed or damaged.
Headlights
IMPORTANT Never use aromatic
substances (e.g. petrol) or ketones
(e.g. acetone) for cleaning the
plastic lenses of the front headlights.

4. Do not travel with a heavy load:
the weight of the vehicle (especially
when driving in town) and its trim
greatly affect fuel consumption and
stability.
5. Remove roof racks or ski racks
after use. These accessories reduce
the vehicle's aerodynamic
penetration and have a negative
effect on fuel consumption.
6. When transporting particularly
large objects, use a trailer if
possible.
7. Use the vehicle's air vents if
possible: travelling with the windows
open impairs aerodynamics.
8. Use electrical devices only for the
amount of time needed. The
vehicle’s heated rear window,
additional headlights, screen wipers
and heater fan require a
considerable amount of energy;
increasing the current uptake
increases fuel consumption (by up
to +25% in an urban cycle).
9. Air conditioning leads to higher
fuel consumption (on average up to
+30%). If the temperature outside
is not too extreme, try and use
the air vents.Driving style
1. After starting the engine you
should drive away immediately and
slowly, avoiding high revs. Do not
warm up the engine at low or high
revs when the vehicle is stationary;
this causes the engine to warm
up more slowly, thereby increasing
fuel consumption, emissions and
mechanical component wear.
2. Avoid pointless actions such as
revving up when at traffic lights
or before stopping the engine. The
latter action, like double-
declutching, is unnecessary and
causes increased fuel consumption
and pollution.
3. Gear selection: select a high gear
as soon as possible (taking into
account normal engine operation
and traffic conditions) without
pushing the engine to high revs
during the intermediate gears. Using
low gears at high revs to get lively
acceleration increases fuel
consumption, harmful emissions
and engine wear.4. Vehicle speed: fuel consumption
increases exponentially as the speed
of the vehicle increases. Keep your
speed moderate and as even as
possible, avoiding unnecessary
braking and acceleration, which
cause excessive fuel consumption
and increased emissions. Keeping a
safe distance from the vehicle in
front helps to maintain a steady
speed.
5. Acceleration: accelerating
violently severely affects
consumption and emissions.
Acceleration should be gradual and
should not exceed the maximum
engine torque rate.
