By choosing Fiat original spare parts (re-
conditioned and non re-conditioned) you
can rely on a rapid and efficient service
provided by skilled operators, on good
equipment and a wide range of parts.
The Fiat Dealership uses Fiat original spare
parts and re-conditioned spare parts.FIAT RE-CONDITIONED
SPARE PARTS
They are Fiat original spare parts/me-
chanical assemblies, already used but giv-
en back to Fiat, which renews them com-
pletely to meet the same qualitative and
reliability requirements of the newly orig-
inal spare parts.
Fiat re-conditioned spare parts:
❒give the Customers the opportunity to
buy spare mechanical assemblies (en-
gines, transmissions, etc.) at particular-
ly favourable prices;
❒contribute to safeguard the environ-
ment by reducing scrapping operations
and the disposal of removed materials. FIAT ORIGINAL SPARE PARTS
These spare parts ensure the reliability
and technological quality needed to trav-
el safely. Designed on the basis of the same
project of the components fitted on the
vehicle, the original spare parts undergo
very harsh tests before being produced or
re-conditioned, with the aim of being used
to keep the vehicle performance un-
changed in time.
Therefore, for an accurate and careful
maintenance, choose Fiat original spare
parts (re-conditioned and non re-condi-
tioned), which can be identified by the fea-
tures of their package and which are avail-
able only at the Fiat Dealership.

During operation of the air conditioner,
you may notice slight changes in engine
speed. These changes are normal, the sys-
tem is designed so that the compressor
turns on or off to maintain the desired
temperature.
Less operation of the compressor results
in better fuel economy.
SYSTEM OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS

Select “VENTILATION” and “FRESH
AIR”, the temperature selector to the de-
sired temperature position, and the blow-
er speed selector to “OFF”. Fresh air will
flow through the vehicle during driving.

The control settings are the same as for
natural ventilation except you set the
blower speed selector to a position oth-
er than “OFF”.Normal heating (using outside air)
Select “HEAT” and “FRESH AIR”, the
temperature selector to the desired tem-
perature position and the blower speed
selector to the desired blower speed po-
sition. Setting the blower speed selector
to a higher blower speed position in-

ing method for an extended period of
time, the air in the vehicle can become
contaminated and the windows can be-
come misty. Therefore, use this method
only for quick heating and change to the
normal heating method as soon as possi-
ble. Recirculated Air (g)
When this mode is selected, the indicator
light will come on, outside air is shut out
and inside air is recirculated. This mode is
suitable when driving through dusty or
polluted air such as in a tunnel, or when
attempting to quickly cool down the in-
terior.
“FRESH AIR” and “RECIRCULATED AIR”
are switched alternately each time the air
intake selector is pushed.
NOTE If you select “RECIRCULATED
AIR” for an extended period of time, the
air in the vehicle can become contami-
nated. Therefore, you should occasional-
ly select “FRESH AIR”.

To turn on the air conditioning system,
push in the “A/C” switch and set the blow-
er speed selector to a position other than
