Operating the system in automatic
mode
In normal conditions, use the system in
the AUTO mode and follow these
procedures:
1. Push the AUTO switch.
2. Set the temperature control switch to
the desired temperature.
The mode selection, blower speed
adjustment, recirculated/outside air
selection, temperature adjustment, and
air conditioner ON/OFF status are all
controlled automatically.
IMPORTANT When using the air
conditioner, the idling speed may
slightly increase as the air conditioning
compressor is switched on/off
automatically. While the vehicle with an
A/T is stationary, fully depress the brake
pedal to prevent the vehicle from
creeping.NOTE If the blower speed selection
switch, air conditioning switch, Mode
switch, or air selection switch is
operated while the system is operating
in the AUTO mode, the activated
function overrides the corresponding
function of automatic control. All other
functions remain under automatic
control.
Operating the system in manual
mode
Blower speed and ventilator mode may
be controlled manually by setting the
blower speed selection switch and the
MODE switch to the desired positions.
To return to automatic operation, press
the AUTO switch.Demisting of the windscreen and
door windows
IMPORTANT For safety, make sure you
have a clear view through all the
windows.

NOTE Do not set the temperature to
the max. cool position. Cool air will
blow against the window glasses and
prevent demisting.
IMPORTANT OPERATION
TIPS FOR THE AIR
CONDITIONING
Park the vehicle in the shade.
Parking in the hot sun will make the
vehicle inside extremely hot, and it will
require more time to cool the interior. If
it is necessary to park in the sun, open
the windows for the first few minutes of
air conditioning operation to expel the
hot air.
Close the windows when the air
conditioning is in use. The entry of
outside air through open windows will
reduce the cooling efficiency.
Too much cooling is not good for the
health. The inside air temperature
should only be 5 to 6 °C below the
outside air temperature.
When operating the system, make
sure the air intake, which is located infront of the windscreen, is free of
obstructions such as leaves and snow.
Leaves collected in the air-intake
plenum may reduce air flow and plug
the plenum water drains.
Air conditioning system refrigerant
recommendations
If the air conditioning seems less
effective than usual, the cause might be
a refrigerant leak. We recommend you
to have the system inspected.
The air conditioning system in your
vehicle must be charged with the
refrigerant HFC-134a (R134a).
Use of any other refrigerant or lubricant
will cause severe damage which will
result in the need to replace your
vehicle’s entire air conditioning system.
The release of refrigerant into the
atmosphere should be prevented.
It is recommended that the refrigerant
be recovered and recycled for further
use.
During a long period of disuse
The air conditioning should be operated
for at least five minutes each week,
even in cold weather. This is to prevent
poor lubrication of the compressor
internal parts and to maintain the air
conditioning in the best operating
condition.

AIR PURIFIER
An air filter has been incorporated into
this air conditioner so that dirt and dust
are cleaned from the air.
Replace the air filter periodically as its
ability to clean the air will be reduced as
it collects pollen and dirt.
NOTE Operation in certain conditions
such as driving on a dusty road and
frequent use of the air conditioner can
lead to reduction of service life of the
filter. When you feel that the airflow is
lower than normal or when the
windscreen or windows start to fog up
easily, replace the air filter. We
recommend you to have it checked.
REAR WINDOW

defrosted. Refer to “Heated mirror”.NOTE The demister switch is not to
melt snow but to clear mist. Remove
snow before use of the demister switch.
NOTE To avoid unnecessary discharge
of the battery, do not use the rear
window demister during starting of the
engine or when the engine is not
running. Turn the demister off
immediately after the window is clear.
NOTE When cleaning the inside of the
rear window, use a soft cloth and wipe
gently along the heater wires, being
careful not to damage the wires.
NOTE Do not allow objects to touch
the inside of the rear window glass,
damaged or broken wires may result.
Customizing the automatic rear
window demister (for vehicles
equipped with the rear window
demister switch - Type 2)
Function can be changed as desired,
as stated below.
Enable automatic rear window
demister If the outside air temperature
drops below approx. 3 °C (37 °F), the
rear window demister operates once
automatically after the engine starts.

WARNING
60)For safety, make sure you have a clear
view through all windows.
IMPORTANT
18)When using the air conditioning, the
idling speed may slightly increase as the air
conditioning compressor is switched on/off
automatically. While the vehicle with an
automatic transmission is stationary, fully
depress the brake pedal to prevent the
vehicle from creeping.
19)When using the mode selection dial
between the
andpositions, prevent
fogging by moving the air selection lever to
select outside air (refer to “Air selection
lever”).
20)Use of the
(recirculation) position
for extended time may cause the windows
to fog up.21)If the outside air is dusty or otherwise
contaminated, or if high cooling
performance is desired, set air selection
lever to the
(recirculation) position and
the temperature control dial all the way to
the right. Switch to the
(outside)
position periodically to increase ventilation
so that the windows do not become
fogged up.
IMPORTANT
2)The system uses a coolant that is
compatible with the laws in force in the
countries where the vehicle is sold, R134a
or R1234yf (indicated on a specific plate in
the engine compartment). The use of other
coolants affects the efficiency and condition
of the system. Also the compressor
coolants used must be compatible with the
indicated coolant.

CATALYTIC
CONVERTER
The exhaust gas scavenging devices
used with catalytic converter are
extremely efficient for the reduction of
noxious gases. The catalytic converter
is installed in the exhaust system.
It is important to keep the engine
properly tuned to ensure proper catalyst
operation and prevent possible catalyst
damage.
71)
NOTE Use fuel of the type
recommended in “Fuel selection”.
WARNING
71)As with any vehicle, do not park or
operate this vehicle in areas where
combustible materials such as dry grass or
leaves can come in contact with a hot
exhaust since a fire could occur.
DIESEL
PARTICULATE
FILTER (DPF)
(where provided)
The diesel particulate filter (DPF) is a
device that captures most of the
particulate matter (PM) in the exhaust
emissions of the diesel engine. The DPF
automatically burns away trapped PM
during vehicle operation. Under certain
driving conditions, however, the DPF is
not able to burn away all of the trapped
PM and, as a result, an excessive
amount of PM accumulates inside it.
72)
22)
NOTE To minimize the likelihood of
excessive accumulation of PM, try to
avoid driving for long periods at low
speeds and repeatedly driving short
distances.
NOTE The engine sounds slightly
different from usual while the DPF
automatically burns away trapped PM.
The change in the engine sound does
not indicate a fault.
DPF warning lamp
The DPF warning lamp comes on in the
event of an abnormality in the DPF
system.If the DPF warning lamp comes on
during vehicle operation
Steady illumination of the DPF warning
lamp shows that the DPF has not been
able to burn away all of the trapped PM
and that, as a result, an excessive
amount of PM has accumulated inside
it. To enable the DPF to burn away the
PM, try to drive the vehicle as follows:
With the bar graph of engine coolant
temperature display stabilized in roughly
the middle of the scale, drive for about
20 minutes at a speed of at least
40 km/h.
23) 24)
IMPORTANT You do not have to
continuously drive exactly as indicated
above. Always strive to drive safely in
accordance with road conditions.

If the DPF warning lamp flashes
during vehicle operation
Flashing of the DPF warning lamp
indicates an abnormality in the DPF
system. Have the system inspected by
a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
72)The diesel particulate filter (DPF)
reaches high temperatures during normal
operation. Do not park the vehicle on
flammable material (grass, dry leaves, pine
needles etc.): fire hazard.
IMPORTANT
22)Do not use any type of fuel or engine oil
that is not specified for your vehicle. Also,
do not use any moisture-removing agent or
other fuel additive. Such substances could
have a detrimental effect on the DPF. Refer
to “Fuel selection” and “Engine oil”.
23)Vehicle travel speed should always be
adapted to the traffic and weather
conditions, and must always comply with
traffic regulations. The engine can be
stopped even if the DPF symbol is on:
however, repeated interruptions of the
regeneration process could cause
premature deterioration of the engine oil.
For this reason it is always advisable to wait
for the symbol to go off before turning off
the engine, following the instructions
above. Do not complete the DPF
regeneration process when the vehicle is
stopped.24)Continuing to drive with the DPF
warning lamp flashing could result in engine
trouble and DPF damage.
