TWO-ZONE CLIMATE
CONTROL SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
DESCRIPTION
The car is fitted with a two-zone climate
control system which makes it possible to
separately adjust the air temperature on
the driver’s side and on the passenger’s
side.
The system is fitted with the AQS func-
tion (Air Quality System) that turns on in-
side air recirculation automatically when
the antipollution sensor detects the pres-
ence of outside polluted air (for example
when driving in the city, queues and tun-
nels).

gine is started with at least one bar of the
fan speed indicator lit up.
The radiator is turned off automatically
when conditions of comfort are achieved.
IMPORTANT heater activation is pre-
vented if the battery voltage is too low.SWITCHING THE CLIMATE

AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS
SENSOR (daylight sensor) fig. 48
(for versions/markets, where provided)
It detects the changes of the external light
intensity of the car according to the light
sensitivity set: greater is the sensitivity,
smaller is the amount of external light nec-
essary to control the switching-on of the
exterior headlights. The daylight sensor
sensitivity can be adjusted with the “Set-
up Menu” of the instrument panel.
Activation
Turn the knurled ring to
2A: in this way,
the automatic activation of the
side/taillights and dipped beam headlights
are simultaneously enabled according to
the external luminosity.
During the sensor operation lights can on-
ly be made flashing.
Deactivation
As a result of the sensor deactivation, the
main beam headlights will switch off and,
after about 10 seconds, sidelights will
switch off too.
The light sensor is not able to detect the
fog presence, lights shall therefore be
switched on manually.

“Cornering lights”
With low beams on at a speed of less than
40 km/h, when the steering wheel is
turned through a large angle or upon ac-
tivation of the direction indicator, a light
(incorporated in the fog lamp) will come
on to expand the angle of night-time visi-
bility on the side to which the vehicle is
turned.
“FOLLOW ME HOME”
DEVICE fig. 47
This function allows the illumination of the
space in front of the car for a preset pe-
riod of time.Activation
With the ignition key at STOPor re-
moved, pull the stalk towards the steering
wheel and operate it within 2 minutes
from when the engine is turned off.
At each single movement of the stalk, the
staying on of the lights is extended by 30
seconds up to a maximum of 210 seconds;
then the lights are switched off automati-
cally.
Each time the lever is operated, the in-
strument panel warning light
3turns
on (together with the message on the dis-
play) (see section “Warning lights and
messages”).
Deactivation
Keep the stalk pulled towards the steer-
ing wheel for more than 2 seconds.

REAR SCREEN WIPER/
REAR SCREEN WASHER fig. 52
This operates only with the ignition turned
to MAR. Operation ceases when the
lever is released.
When the wheel on the lever is turned
from position
Oto position ', the rear
wiper operates as follows:
❒in intermittent mode when the rear
wiper is not in operation;
❒in synchronous mode (at half the rate
of the windscreen wiper) when the
windscreen wiper is working;
❒in continuous mode, with reverse en-
gaged and the control active.HEADLIGHT WASHER fig. 53
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Car headlight washers are “retractable”,
i.e.: they are located inside the front
bumpers and they are activated (with
dipped beam headlights and/or main beam
headlights on) when the windscreen wash-
er is operated.
IMPORTANT Check at regular intervals
correct operation and cleanness of noz-
zles.
Never use the rear window
wiper to remove ice or snow
from the rear window. In these
conditions, the wiper is sub-
mitted to excessive effort that results
in motor protection cutting in and
wiper operation inhibition for few sec-
onds as a consequence. If operation is
not restored contact Fiat Dealership.
fig. 52F0Q0653m
With the windscreen wiper in operation
and reverse engaged, continuous opera-
tion of the rear screen wiper is also acti-
vated. When the lever is pushed toward
the dashboard (unstable position), the rear
washer jet is also activated. When the
lever is held in this position for longer than
half a second, the rear wiper is also op-
erated. When the lever is released, smart
washing is activated, as for the windscreen
wiper.
