Air distribution buttons (B)
By pressing these buttons, it is possible to set one of the
5 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.
The distribution set is shown by the corresponding LEDs
in the selected buttons coming on.
To restore automatic control of the air distribution after
a manual selection, press the AUTO button.
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.

DANGER: 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 accident.
Child seats must not be fitted on the front seat
of vehicles with a passenger airbag; their deploy-
ment in an accident, however serious, could cause
fatal injuries to the child. If necessary, children can
travel in the front seat, if the front passenger
airbag can be disabled. In this case, check that the
airbag is actually deactivated by making sure the
“ warning light appears on the instrument pan-
el (see “Front passenger airbag” in the “Front
airbags” section). Also, the passenger seat should
be as far back as possible to avoid contact be-
tween 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.
