INTERNAL AIR RECIRCULATION
ACTIVATION
Turn the knob D to
Ò.
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 inside air recirculation system makes
it possible to reach the required heating or cooling
conditions faster.
Do not use the air recirculation function on rainy/cold
days as it would considerably increase the possibility of
the windows misting inside.
SYSTEM SERVICING
In winter, the climate control system must be turned on
at least once a month for about 10 minutes. Before
summer, have the system inspected at a Fiat Dealership. HEATED REAR WINDSCREEN AND DOOR
MIRRORS DEMISTING/DEFROSTING fig. 58
(for versions/markets where provided)
Press the button A to activate this function; when this
function is on the warning light in the button comes on.
This function is timed and will turn off automatically
after 20 minutes. Press the button A again to switch the
function off.
IMPORTANT Do not apply stickers on the inside of the
rear window over the heating filaments to avoid damage
that might cause it to stop working properly.
The system uses R134a refrigerant fluid
which does not pollute the environment
in the event of accidental leakage. Under
no circumstances should R12 fluid be used as it is
incompatible with the system components.

Air distribution buttons (B)
Press these buttons to manually set one
of the seven air distribution settings:
▲Air flow to the windscreen and front side window
vents to demist or defrost the windows.
˙Air flow to the central and side dashboard vents to
ventilate the chest and the face in hot weather.
▼Air flow to the front and rear footwell vents. Thanks
to the natural tendency of hot air to rise, this
distribution pattern allows the passenger
compartment to warm up as quickly as possible,
providing an immediate feeling of warmth.
˙
▼Air flow distribution split between footwell vents
(hotter air) and central and side dashboard vents
(cooler air). This distribution mode is particularly
useful in spring and autumn on sunny days.
▲
▼Air flow distribution split between the footwell vents
and the windscreen and front side windows
defrosting/demisting vents. This allows an adequate
warming of the passenger compartment and
prevents the windows from steaming up.
This function may be used to heat up the passenger
compartment by exploiting the system’s potential to the
full. In this event, the system stops controlling the
temperature automatically and sets the air mixing to
maximum heating. The air speed and distribution are
fixed.
In particular, if the heating fluid is not sufficiently hot,
the maximum fan speed does not come on straight away
in order to limit the intake of insufficiently hot air to the
passenger compartment.
All manual settings will be allowed when this function
is on.
To switch the function off, simply turn the temperature
knob anticlockwise and set the required temperature.
❒LO function (maximum cooling):
select by turning the temperature knob anticlockwise
beyond the minimum value (16 °C).
This function may be used to cool down the passenger
compartment by exploiting the system’s potential to the
full. In this event, the system stops controlling the
temperature automatically and sets the air mixing to
maximum cooling. The air speed and distribution are
fixed. All manual settings will be allowed when this
function is on.
To switch the function off, simply turn the temperature
knob clockwise and set the required temperature.

IMPORTANT With the compressor off, it is not
possible to introduce air into the passenger
compartment at a temperature lower than that of the
outside air. In certain weather conditions, the windows
could mist up rapidly due to the non-dehumidified air.
The system remembers that the compressor has been
switched off, even after the engine has stopped.
To restore automatic compressor activation control,
press the √button again (in this case, the system will
work only 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. This is signalled by
the target temperature 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)
When this button is pressed, the climate
control automatically activates all the
functions necessary to speed up the
demising/defrosting of the windscreen
and the side windows:❒turns on the climate control compressor when
weather conditions are suitable;
❒air recirculation switching-off;
❒sets the maximum temperature for the HI air in both
zones;
❒sets the fan speed set according to the engine
coolant temperature to limit the flow of air that is
insufficiently warm to demist the windows;
❒directs the air flow to the windscreen and front side
windows vents;
❒switches on the heated rear window.
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.
When this function is active, the LED on the
corresponding button and the one on the heated rear
window button switch on. The message FULL AUTO
goes off on the display.
You can only adjust the fan speed and switch off the
heated rear windscreen manually when this function is
active.
To restore the operating conditions, prior to activation,
simply press button B, air recirculation button G, the
compressor button F or the
AUTO button A.

F0N0155mfig. 66
The fluid circulation pump continues to work for
around two minutes to dissipate as much heat as
possible from the heater; the heater can be turned back
on during this stage.
The heater burns fuel in the same way
as the engine, though to a lesser extent.
To prevent poisoning and asphyxiation, the
supplementary heater must never be turned on,
even for short periods, in closed environments
such as a garage or workshops without
extraction fans for the exhaust gases.
WARNING
IMPORTANT When parked the heater switches off
when the battery voltage is low to allow the engine to
be started up.
