TRIP COMPUTER
General features
The “Trip computer” displays information
(with ignition key at MAR), relating to the
operating status of the vehicle. This func-
tion comprises two separate and inde-
pendent trips: “Trip A” and “Trip B” con-
cerning the “complete mission” of the ve-
hicle (journey).
Both functions are resettable (reset - start
of new mission).
“Trip A” shall be used to display the fig-
ures relating to:
– External temperature
– Range
– Trip distance
– Average consumption
– Instant consumption
– Average speed
– Travel time (driving time).“Trip B”, available on multifunction display
only, shall be used to display the figures
relating to:
– Trip distance B
– Average consumption B
– Average speed B
– Travel time B (driving time).
Note“Trip B” function can be excluded
(see paragraph “Trip B On/Off”). “Range”
and “Instant consumption” cannot be re-
set.
Values displayed
External temperature
It indicates the external temperature of
the driver compartment.
Range
This value shows the distance in km (or
mi) that the vehicle can still cover before
needing fuel, assuming that driving condi-
tions are kept unvaried. The display will
show “----” in the following cases:
– value lower than 50 km (or 30 mi)
– vehicle left parked with engine running
for long.
Trip distance
This value shows the distance covered
from the start of the new mission. Exit Menu
This is the last function that closes the cir-
cular setting cycle listed in the initial menu
screen.
Briefly press button MODEto go back to
the standard screen without storing set-
tings.
Press button â–Ľto return to the first menu
option (Speed Beep).

This function is particularly useful when
the outside air is heavily polluted (in a traf-
fic jam, tunnel etc.). However, it is better
not to use it for long periods, especially
if there several people in the vehicle.
IMPORTANT The inside air recirculation
system makes it possible (according to the
selected operating modes) to reach the
required “heating” or “cooling” conditions
faster.
Do not use the air recirculation function
on rainy/cold days as it would consider-
ably increase the possibility of the win-
dows misting inside.

SWITCHING THE CLIMATE
CONTROL SYSTEM ON
The system can be started in different
ways, but it is advisable to press the AU-
TO button and then to turn the knob to
set the temperatures required on the dis-
play.
This way the system will start working
completely automatically to reach the
comfort temperature as quickly as possi-
ble. The system will set air temperature,
quantity and distribution and it will con-
trol the air recirculation function and the
activation of conditioner compressor.During fully automatic operation, the on-
ly manual settings required are the fol-
lowing:
âť’Ă’air recirculation, to keep it always
on or off;
âť’Zto speed up demisting/defrosting of
windscreen, front side windows, rear
window and door mirrors;
During full automatic system operation,
you can change at any time set tempera-
ture, air distribution and fan speed by us-
ing the relevant buttons or knobs: the sys-
tem will automatically change its settings
to adjust to the new requirements. During FULL AUTO operation, changing
air distribution and/or flow and/or com-
pressor activation and/or air recirculation
will make the FULL wording disappear. In
this way functions will pass from automatic
control to manual control until pressing
again the AUTO button. With one or
more functions engaged manually, the ad-
justment of the temperature of the air ad-
mitted to the passenger compartment
continues to be controlled automatically
by the system, except with the climate
control compressor off: under this condi-
tion in fact, the temperature of the air ad-
mitted to the passenger compartment
cannot be lower than outside air temper-
ature.

With the compressor off, if the outside
temperature is higher than set, the system
is not able to meet the request. This is in-
dicated by the temperature setting flash-
ing, after which the AUTO message is

With the compressor disabled, it is pos-
sible to zero the fan speed manually (no

Press this button: the

switch on all the functions required for
fast windscreen and front side window
demisting/defrosting, that is:
âť’switches on climate control compres-
sor when climatic conditions are suit-
able;
âť’air recirculation off;

areas;
âť’activates proper fan speed according
to engine coolant temperature to lim-

partment of air not warm enough to

âť’directs air flow to windscreen and
front side windows vents;
âť’turns heated rear window on
IMPORTANT Fast demisting/defrosting
function stays on for about 3 minutes,
since engine coolant temperature reach-
es a temperature suitable for fast window
demisting.
When the max. demisting/defrosting func-
tion is on, the button led and the heated
rear window button led will turn on; FULL
AUTO wording on the display will turn
off.

SELF-STANDING
SUPPLEMENTARY
HEATER
(where provided)
Fiat Ducato can be equipped, upon re-
quest, with two different self-standing
heaters: one is totally automatic whereas
the other is programmable.
AUTOMATIC VERSION
The supplementary heater will activate au-
tomatically with engine turned on and
proper engine coolant and outside tem-
perature conditions. Deactivation is always
automatic.
IMPORTANT During periods of low tem-
perature when the device is activated,
check that the fuel level is higher than the
reserve. Otherwise the device could lock
and require the assistance of the Fiat
Dealership.PROGRAMMABLE VERSION
The supplementary heater is totally inde-
pendent from the engine and can be used
to:
âť’heat the passenger compartment
when the engine is off;
âť’defrost the windows;
âť’heat the engine coolant and conse-
quently the engine before starting.The system consists of:
âť’diesel burner to heat coolant with ex-
haust fume muffler;
âť’metering pump connected to the ve-
hicle fuel pipes to feed the burner;
âť’heat exchanger connected to the en-
gine cooling system pipes;
The heater burns fuel in the
same way as the engine,
though, of course, to a lesser degree
and therefore to avoid intoxication
and suffocation, never use the sup-
plementary heater in closed areas,
garages or workshops not equipped
with specific exhaust evacuation de-
vices even for short periods of time.

In cold weather, the supplementary heater
warms and circulates constant tempera-
ture fluid in the engine cooling system for
the time required to ensure optimal en-
gine ignition and passenger compartment
temperature conditions.
The heater can be started automatically
(programmed by means of the digital
timer) or manually by pressing the “heat
now” button on the timer.
When the heater is turned on (automat-
ically or manually), the electronic control
unit operates the fluid circulation pump
and safely ignites the burner according to
preset and controlled modes.

the circulation pump delivery in order to
reduce initial heating time. When the sys-
tem is operating, the control unit operates
the heater unit fan to the second speed.
Thermal power is adjusted automatically
by the control unit according to the en-
gine coolant temperature.

IMPORTANT The heater is equipped with
a thermal switch which cuts off the heater
in the event of overheating caused by low
or leaking coolant. In this case, press the
program selection button to start the
heater again after repairing the cooling sys-
tem fault and/or topping up the fluid.
The heater can turn itself off after engine
ignition or if the flame goes out. In this
case, turn the heater off manually and at-
tempt to turn it back on again. If you can-
not turn the heater on, contact a Fiat
Dealership.Turning the heater on
If an automatic climate control system is
fitted, the control unit sets air tempera-
ture and distribution when the parking
heater is turned on.
When a manual heater/climate control
system is fitted, to achieve peak heater
performance, check that the passenger
compartment heater/ventilation unit air
temperature knob is in “warm air” posi-
tion.
For preferential passenger compartment
preheating, turn the air distribution knob
to position
