Switching the device on
The system is automatically enabled on all the doors by
pressing button
Átwice on the key with remote control.
The direction indicators flash twice to let you know that
the device is active.
If one or more of the doors is not perfectly shut, the dead
lock device will not be activated, thus preventing a person
getting into the vehicle through the open door and, on
shutting, it, remaining stuck inside the passenger com-
partment.
Switching the device off
The system is disabled automatically on every door when:
❒unlocking the doors;
❒turning the ignition key to MAR.
Requesting additional remote controls
The system acknowledges up to 8 remote controls. Should
a new remote control be necessary, contact the Fiat Ser-
vice Network and be ready to present the CODE card, a
personal identity document and the vehicle ownership doc-
uments.
DEAD LOCK
(for versions/markets where provided)
This safety device prevents the opening of the doors from
inside the passenger compartment if there has been a break
in attempt (e.g. a window has been broken).
The dead lock device therefore offers the best possible
protection against break in attempts. We recommend en-
gaging it whenever the vehicle is parked and left unat-
tended.

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:
❒Ò
air 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.

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.

Climate control compressor on/off button (F)
Press button √to switch the climate control compres-
sor off (if it is already on). The icon on the display will
go out.
Press the button when the LED is off to automatically
restore system control and use of the compressor. The
icon will light up in the display in this case.
The system will switch the recirculation off when the cli-
mate control compressor is switched off to prevent the
windows misting up. Although the system is capable of
maintaining the required temperature, the word FULL will
disappear from the display. If the system is no longer able
to maintain the temperature, the figures will flash and the
word AUTO will go out.
Air recirculation on/off button (G)
The air recirculation works according to the following op-
erating logic:
❒override on (air recirculation always on), indicated by
the LED on the button
Gcoming on and the symbol
í on the display;
❒override off (air recirculation always off and intro-
duction of outside air), indicated by the fact that the
LED in the button goes off and symbol ê will ap-
pear on the display.
These operating conditions are obtained by pressing air
recirculation button G in sequence.
WARNING The engagement of the air recirculation sys-
tem makes it possible to reach the required heating or
cooling conditions faster.
It is however not advised to use it on rainy/cold days as
it would considerably increase the possibility of the win-
dows steaming up, especially if the climate control com-
pressor is off.
The recirculation is forced off (i.e. air is introduced from
the outside) when the the outside temperature is cold to
prevent misting up.
It is advisable not to use the air recirculation function when
the outside temperature is low, because the windows
could rapidly steam up.

❒switches on the heated rear windscreen
WARNING The rapid demisting/defrosting function for
the windows remains on for about 3 minutes from when
the engine coolant reaches the appropriate temperature
for a rapid demisting of the windows.
When this function is active, the LED in the correspond-
ing button and the one for the heated rear windscreen but-
ton switch on. The message FULL AUTO goes off on the
display.
You can only adjust the fan speed and switch the heated
rear windscreen off manually when this function is active.
To restore the previous operating conditions, simply press
button B, air recirculation button G, compressor button
F or AUTO button A.
IMPORTANT With the compressor off, it is not possible
to introduce air into the passenger compartment at a tem-
perature lower than that of the outside air. In certain
weather conditions, the windows could mist up rapidly due
to the non-dehumidified air.
The switching off of the compressor remains memorised
even when the engine has been stopped.
To restore automatic compressor engagement control,
press the √
button again (in this case, the system will work
only as a heater) or press the AUTO button.
With the compressor switched off, if the outside tem-
perature is higher than the one set, the system is not ca-
pable of satisfying this request and signals it by the digits
for the temperature setting flashing after which the word
AUTO goes out.
With the climate control compressor off, the fan speed
can be set to zero manually (no bar shown).
With the compressor enabled and the engine started, the
fan speed may only be reduced to the minimum setting
(one bar shown).
Button for rapid window demisting/defrosting (D)
Press this button and the climate control system will au-
tomatically switch on all the functions required for fast
windscreen and side window demisting/defrosting:
❒the climate control compressor is turned on when
weather conditions are suitable;
❒the air recirculation is turned off;
