REV COUNTER fig. 12
The rev counter shows the number of engine rpm.
WARNING The electronic injection control system grad-
ually shuts off the flow of fuel when the engine is over-
revving, resulting in a gradual loss of engine power.
When the engine is idling, the rev counter may indicate
a gradual or sudden increase in the rate.
This is normal and does not indicate a fault. It may be
caused, for example, by the operation of the climate con-
trol system or fan. In such cases, a slight increase in engine
idle speed helps to sustain the battery charge.INSTRUMENTS
Instrument background colour and type may vary ac-
cording to the version.

INTERNAL AIR RECIRCULATION
ACTIVATION
Press button E: when the function is on, the button LED
lights up.
It is advisable to switch the internal air recirculation on
while standing in queues or in tunnels to prevent the in-
troduction 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.
WARNING The air recirculation system makes it possi-
ble to reach the required heating or cooling conditions
faster. It is not advisable to switch the air recirculation
on when it is rainy/cold or the windows might steam up,
especially if the climate control system is not turned on.
CLIMATE CONTROL (cooling)
Proceed as follows:
❒turn knob A to the blue section;
❒turn knob B to the required speed;
❒turn knob C to ¶;
❒press buttons ❄and E (button LEDs on). HEATED REAR WINDSCREEN AND DOOR

(for versions/markets where provided)
Press button F (to activate; when this function is on, the
LED on button F (lights up.
This function is timed and will turn off automatically after
20 minutes. Press button F (again to switch it off before
20 minutes elapse.
WARNING Do not apply stickers to the inside of the heat-
ed rear windscreen over the heating filaments to avoid
damage that might cause it to stop working properly.
REGULATING THE FAN SPEED
To ventilate the passenger compartment properly, pro-
ceed as follows:
❒fully open the central and side air diffusers;
❒turn knob A to the blue section;

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
Run the climate control system for at least 10 minutes
every month during the winter. Have the system inspect-
ed at the Fiat Service Network before the summer. Adjusting cooling
Proceed as follows:
❒turn off internal air recirculation by pressing button E
(button LED off);
❒turn knob A to the right to increase the temperature;
❒turn knob B to the left to reduce the fan speed.
SUPPLEMENTARY HEATER
(for versions/markets where provided)
This device warms up the passenger compartment more
quickly when it is very cold and the engine coolant tem-
perature is low.
The supplementary heater comes on automatically when
the engine is started, if knob A is turned to the last red
sector and the fan (knob B) is at least at the first speed lev-
el.
The supplementary heater turns off automatically after
reaching the required comfort conditions.
WARNING The heater will not turn on if the battery volt-
age is too low.

Manual selections will always take priority over automat-
ic settings and will be stored until the user switches the
system back to automatic operation by pressing the
AUTO button again, except for when the system inter-
venes for particular safety-related reasons. You can adjust
one function manually without affecting the automatic con-
trol of the others.
The temperature of the air introduced is always controlled
automatically, depending on the temperature set in the dis-
play (except when the system is off or in certain condi-
tions when the compressor is switched off).
The system allows the following parameters and functions
to be set or altered manually: air temperature, fan speed
(continuous variation); air distribution in seven positions;
compressor enablement; fast defrosting/demisting func-
tion; air recirculation; switching off the system.AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL
(for versions/markets, where provided)
GENERAL INFORMATION
The automatic climate control system adjusts the tem-
perature, the quantity and the distribution of the air in the
passenger compartment. The temperature control is based
on the “equivalent temperature”: in other words, the sys-
tem continuously works to keep the comfort level inside
the vehicle constant and to compensate for possible vari-
ations in outside conditions, including the solar radiation
detected by a dedicated sensor. The automatically con-
trolled parameters and functions are:
❒air temperature at the vents;
❒air distribution at the vents;
❒fan speed
(continuous air flow variation);
❒compressor activation
(to cool/dehumidify the air);
❒air recirculation.
All functions may be changed manually. In other words,
you may select one or more functions and change the pa-
rameters as required. Automatic control of the manually
changed functions will be deactivated: the system will on-
ly override your settings for safety related reasons (e.g.
risk of misting up).

During fully automatic operation (FULL AUTO), the word
FULL will disappear if the air distribution and/or flow rate
and/or activation of the compressor and/or recirculation
settings are changed. In this way, the functions will switch
from automatic to manual control until the AUTO button
is pressed again. With one or more functions turned on
manually, the adjustment of the intake air temperature con-
tinues to be managed automatically, except with the com-
pressor switched off: if this is the case, the temperature of
the air introduced into the passenger compartment can-
not be lower than that of the outside air.
CONTROLS
Air temperature adjustment knob (I)
Turn the knob either clockwise or anticlockwise to in-
crease or lower the temperature in the passenger com-
partment.
The temperature set is shown on the display.
Turn the knob either all to the right or all to the left to
the extreme HI or LO position to turn the maximum heat-
ing or maximum cooling functions on:
❒HI Function (maximum heating):
select by turning the temperature knob clockwise over the
maximum value (32 °C). USING THE CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM
The system can be started in different ways, but it is ad-
visable to start by pressing the AUTO button and then
turning the knob to set the temperature required on the
display. The system will start running automatically in this
way and the set temperature will be reached as quickly
as possible. The system will adjust the temperature, the
quantity and the distribution of the air introduced into the
passenger compartment and will manage the recirculation
function and the air conditioning compressor engagement.
During fully automatic operation the only manual inter-
vention required is the possible activation of the following
functions:
❒Òair recirculation, to keep it always on or off;
❒Zto speed up demisting/defrosting of the front door
window glasses, rear door window glasses and door
mirrors.
During fully automatic system operation, you can change
the set temperatures, air distribution and fan speed at any
time by using the relevant buttons or knobs: the system
will automatically change its settings to adjust to the new
requirements.
