To optimise head restraint protective ac-
tion, adjust the seat back upright and keep
your head as close as possible to the head
restraint.
Remember that the head re-
straints should be adjusted
to support the back of your head and
not your neck. Only in this position
do they exert their protective action
WARNING
STEERING WHEEL
The steering wheel can be adjusted axial-
ly.
Proceed as follows:
❒release the lever A-fig. 37pulling it
towards the steering wheel (position
2).
❒adjust the steering wheel as required;
❒lock the lever Apushing it forwards
(position 1);
fig. 37F0N0321m
Any adjustment of the steer-
ing wheel position must be
carried out only with the vehicle sta-
tionary and the engine turned off.
WARNING
It is absolutely forbidden to
carry out whatever after-
market operation involving steering
system or steering column modifica-
tions (e.g.: installation of anti-theft
device) that could badly affect per-
formance and safety, cause the lapse
of warranty and also result in non-
compliance of the vehicle with ho-
mologation requirements.

temperatura
Turning the knob
clockwise or counter-clockwise,
respectively raises or lowers the
temperature of the air required in the
passenger compartment.
Set temperature is shown on the
display.
Turning the knob fully clockwise or
counter-clockwise until it reaches the ex-
treme selections HI or LO, the maximum
heating or cooling functions are respec-
tively engaged:
❒HI function (highest heating power):
this is turned on by rotating the temper-
ature knob clockwise and passing the max.
temperature value (32 °C).
This function can be engaged when re-
quiring to heat the passenger compart-
ment as quickly as possible, exploiting the
maximum potential of the system. Under
these conditions, the system is no longer
controlled by the automatic temperature
adjustment system and sets air mixing to
maximum heating by modulating speed
and air distribution.
More particularly, max. fan speed will not
be immediately engaged if coolant is not
hot enough; this to prevent admitting air
that is not warm enough to the passenger
compartment.
All manual settings are possible with this
function on.To switch the function off, simply turn the
knob counter-clockwise and set the re-
quired temperature.
❒LO function (highest cooling power:
this is turned on by rotating the temper-
ature knob counter-clockwise and passing
the min. temperature value (16 °C).
This function can be engaged when re-
quiring to cool the passenger compart-
ment as quickly as possible, exploiting the
maximum potential of the system. Under
these conditions, the system is no longer
controlled by the automatic temperature
adjustment system and sets air mixing to
maximum cooling by modulating speed
and air distribution. All manual settings are
possible with this function on.
To switch the function off, simply turn the
knob clockwise and set the required tem-
perature.

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:
❒heat the passenger compartment
when the engine is off;
❒defrost the windows;
❒heat the engine coolant and conse-
quently the engine before starting.The system consists of:
❒diesel burner to heat coolant with ex-
haust fume muffler;
❒metering pump connected to the ve-
hicle fuel pipes to feed the burner;
❒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.

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
©.
For preferential windscreen demisting, set
the air distribution knob to position
-.
To obtain both functions, set the air dis-
tribution knob to position

❒Always remember to turn the heater
off when refuelling or standing in ser-
vice stations to avoid fires and explo-
sions.
❒Do not park the vehicle over inflam-
mable material such as paper, dry grass
or leaves: fire risk!
❒The temperature near the heater must
never exceed 120°C (e.g. during paint-
ing operations in a workshop oven).
Higher temperatures could damage
the electronic control unit compo-
nents.
❒When the engine is off, the heater takes
power from the battery: it is conse-
quently important to run the engine for
a certain period of time in order to re-
store the battery charge.
❒Follow the prescriptions in section
“Vehicle maintenance” at paragraph
“Engine coolant level” to check the
coolant level. The coolant in the cir-
cuit must contain at least 10% an-
tifreeze fluid.
❒Maintenance and repairs must always
be carried out by a Fiat Dealership and
only genuine spare parts must be used.
MAINTENANCE
Have the heater checked at a Fiat Deal-
ership periodically (always before winter).
This will ensure safe and cheap running
and long appliance life.
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.
WARNING
IMPORTANT The parking heater goes off
when the battery voltage is low to enable
the vehicle to be started up.
IMPORTANT Before turning on the de-
vice, ensure that the fuel level is higher
than the reserve. Otherwise the device
could lock and require the assistance of
the Fiat Dealership.

POWER SUPPLY AND
FUEL CUT-OFF SWITCH
The vehicle is fitted with a safety switch that
in the event of a crash comes into opera-
tion by cutting off fuel and turning off the en-
gine as a consequence. When the inertial
switch cuts in, fuel supply is stopped and haz-
ard and sidelights will turn on, for turning
off press button A. An additional safety
switch is also fitted, that in the event of a
crash comes into operation by cutting off the
power supply. These two safety switches
therefore prevent dangerous fuel leaks due
to fuel line cracking and sparks or electric dis-
charges due to damaging or malfunctioning
of the electric components of the vehicle in
the event of a crash.
IMPORTANT After a crash, remember to
remove the key from the ignition device to
prevent battery run-down.
If, after a crash no fuel leaks or damages to
the electric devices (e.g. headlights) are
found and the vehicle can be started again,
reset the fuel cut-off switch and the power
supply cut-off switch (where provided). Fol-
low the instructions given below.
fig. 82F0N0047mfig. 84F0N0048m
If, after a crash, you smell fu-
el or see leaks from the fuel
system, do not reset the switches to
avoid fire risk.
