Air distribution buttons (B)
By pressing these buttons, it is possible to set one of the
seven possible air distributions manually:
▲Air flow to the windscreen and front side window dif-
fusers to demist or defrost them.
˙Air flow to the centre and side dashboard diffusers to
ventilate the chest and the face during the hot
season.
▼Air flow to the front and rear footwell diffusers.
Thanks to the natural tendency of hot air to rise up-
wards, this distribution pattern allows the passenger
compartment to warm up as quickly as possible, pro-
viding an immediate feeling of warmth.
˙
▼Air flow distribution split between footwell diffusers
(hotter air) and central and side dashboard vents
(cooler air). This distribution mode is particularly use-
ful in spring and autumn on sunny days.
▲
▼Air flow distribution split between the footwell dif-
fusers and the windscreen and front side windows de-
frosting/demisting diffusers. 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 com-
partment exploiting the system potential to the maximum.
In this condition, the system stops controlling the tem-
perature 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 or-
der to limit the intake of insufficiently hot air into the pas-
senger 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 un-
der the minimum value (16 °C).
This function may be used to cool down the passenger
compartment exploiting the system potential to the max-
imum. In this condition, the system stops controlling the
temperature automatically and sets the air mixing to max-
imum 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.

By manually adjusting at least one of the functions auto-
matically managed by the system (air recirculation, air dis-
tribution, fan speed or air conditioning compressor on/off),
the word FULL will disappear from the display, indicating
that the system is no longer automatically controlling all
the functions (the temperature will still be controlled au-
tomatically by the system).▲
˙Air flow distribution split between the windscreen
and front side windows defrosting/demisting diffusers
and the central and side dashboard vents. This dis-
tribution makes it possible to maintain good levels
of comfort and keep the passenger compartment suf-
ficiently cool (summer).

INDEXDANGER: Do not put cradle seats facing
backwards on the front seat if the front
passenger airbag is enabled. Deployment
of the airbag in an accident could cause
fatal injuries to the child. It is advisable
to carry children on the rear seat, which is the
most protected position in the event of an acci-
dent. Child seats must not be fitted on the front
seat of vehicles with a passenger airbag; their de-
ployment in an accident, however serious, could
cause fatal injuries to the child. If necessary, chil-
dren can travel in the front seat, if the front pas-
senger airbag can be disabled. In this case, check
that the airbag is actually deactivated by mak-
ing sure the “warning light appears on the in-
strument panel (see “Front passenger airbag” in
the “Front airbags” section). Also, the passenger
seat should be as far back as possible to avoid
contact between the child seat and the dashboard.
WARNINGOver 1.50 m in height, from the point of view of restraint
systems, children are considered as adults and wear seat
belts normally.
Lineaccessori Fiat has child seats for each weight group.
These devices are recommended, having been specifically
designed for Fiat vehicles.

INDEXFRONT AIRBAGS
The vehicle is fitted with front airbags for the driver and,
for versions/markets where provided, front airbags for
the passenger.
FRONT AIRBAGS
The front driver/passenger airbags (for versions/markets
where provided) have been designed to protect the front-
seat occupants in the event of head-on crashes of medi-
um-high severity, by placing the bag between the occu-
pant and the steering wheel or dashboard.
Non-activation in other types of crash (side-on collisions,
rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.) is therefore not a sign of sys-
tem malfunction.
An electronic control unit causes the bag to inflate, if nec-
essary, in the event of a head-on crash.
The bag will inflate instantaneously, placing itself between
the front occupant’s body and the structures which could
cause injury. It will deflate immediately afterwards.
Front driver/passenger airbags (for versions/markets
where provided) are not a replacement for, but rather
a complement to, the seat belts, which should be worn
at all times as specified by law in Europe and most non-
European countries.
In the event of an impact, someone not wearing a seat
belt could move forward and come into contact with a bag
which is still in the opening phase. The protection offered
by the bag is reduced in such a case. The front airbags may not be activated in the following
situations:❒head-on impacts against highly deformable objects that
do not affect the vehicle’s front surface (e.g. front wing
hitting the guard rail);
❒car getting wedged under other vehicles or protective
barriers (e.g. trucks or guard rails);
they could not provide any additional protection com-
pared with seat belts, so their activation would not be
worthwhile. In these cases, non-deployment of the airbag
does not necessarily indicate a system malfunction.
Do not apply stickers or other objects to
the steering wheel, the dashboard in the
passenger side airbag area and the seats. Do not
place objects (e.g. mobile phones) on the passen-
ger side dashboard because these could interfere
with the correct opening of the airbag and cause
severe injury to occupants.
WARNING
The front driver and passenger airbags are designed and
calibrated to best protect front-seat passengers wearing
seat belts.
The volume of the front airbags at maximum inflation fills
most of the space between the steering wheel and the
driver and between the dashboard and the passenger.
