REAR VIEW MIRRORS
REAR-VIEW MIRROR fig. 40
The mirror is fitted with a safety device that causes its
release in the event of a violent impact with the
passenger.
Lever A can be used to move the mirror to two
different positions: normal or antiglare.
DOOR MIRRORS
Mirrors with manual adjustment
To adjust the mirrors, manually adjust each of the two
glasses of each mirror.
As the driver’s exterior mirror is curved,
it may slightly alter the perception of
distance of the reflected image.
Further, the reflective surface of the lower part
of the exterior mirrors is parabolic to increase
the field of view. The reflected image size is thus
reduced and gives the impression that the
reflected item is further away than it actually is.

INTERNAL AIR RECIRCULATION
ACTIVATION
Turn the knob D to
Ò.
It is advisable to switch the internal air recirculation on
while standing in queues or in tunnels to prevent the
introduction 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.
IMPORTANT The inside air recirculation system makes
it possible to reach the required heating or cooling
conditions faster.
Do not use the air recirculation function on rainy/cold
days as it would considerably increase the possibility of
the windows misting inside.
SYSTEM SERVICING
In winter, the climate control system must be turned on
at least once a month for about 10 minutes. Before
summer, have the system inspected at a Fiat Dealership. HEATED REAR WINDSCREEN AND DOOR
MIRRORS DEMISTING/DEFROSTING fig. 52

I Temperature increase/decrease control knob.
USING THE CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM
The system can be started in different ways, but it is
advisable 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, by
managing the recirculation function, the activation of the
compressor. During fully automatic operation, the only
manual intervention 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
windows, rear window and door mirrors.During fully automatic system operation, you can change
the set temperature, 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. During fully automatic operation
(FULL AUTO), the word FULL will disappear if the air
distribution and/or flow rate and/or engagement 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 continues to
be managed automatically, except with the compressor
switched off: if this is the case, the temperature of the
air introduced into the passenger compartment cannot
be lower than that of the outside air.
CONTROLS
Air temperature adjustment knob
air (l)
Turn the knob either clockwise or
anticlockwise to increase or lower the
requested temperature in the passenger
compartment.

between day and night and making the necessary
adjustments automatically. RAIN SENSOR
(for versions/markets where provided)
The rain sensor is located behind the rear view mirror
in contact with the windscreen and has the purpose of
automatically adjusting the frequency of the windscreen
wiper strokes depending on the intensity of the rain
during intermittent operation.

Move the right lever down by one click (position B).
The activation of the sensor is signalled by a “stroke” to
show that the command has been acquired.
Turn the control F to increase the rain sensor
sensitivity.
The increasing of the rain sensor sensitivity is signalled
by a “stroke” to show that the command has been
acquired.
If the windscreen washer is used with the rain sensor
activated, the normal washing cycle is performed, after
which the rain sensor resumes its normal automatic
operation.HEADLIGHT WASHERS
(for versions/markets where provided)
The headlight washers are “retractable”, i.e.: they are
located inside the front bumper and they are activated
when (with dipped beams on) the windscreen washer is
operated.
IMPORTANT Check the correct operation and
cleanliness of the jets at regular intervals.
Streaks of water may cause unnecessary
blade movements.

TOWING TRAILERS
IMPORTANT NOTES
The vehicle must be provided with a type-approved tow
hook and adequate electrical system to tow caravans or
trailers. Installation should be carried out by specialised
personnel who will issue the required papers for
travelling on roads.
Install any specific and/or additional rear view mirrors as
specified by the Highway Code.
Remember that when towing a trailer, steep hills are
harder to climb, the braking spaces increase and
overtaking takes longer depending on the overall weight.
Engage a low gear when driving downhill, rather than
constantly using the brake.
The weight of the trailer on the vehicle tow hook will
reduce the loading capacity of the vehicle by the same
amount. Consider the weight of the trailer fully laden,
including accessories and luggage, to make sure you do
not exceed the maximum towable weight (shown on
the vehicle registration document).
Do not exceed the speed limits specific for each country
you are driving in, in the case of vehicles towing trailers.
In any case, the top speed must not exceed 100 km/h.
Fit a suitable towing stabiliser to the trailer to be towed. CONDITIONS OF USE
Cold starting
Short journeys and frequent cold starts will prevent the
engine from reaching optimal running temperature.
Consequently, both consumption (from +15 to +30% on
urban cycle ) and emissions will increase.
Traffic and road conditions
Rather high consumption levels are linked to situations
with heavy traffic, for instance when travelling in queues
with frequent use of the lower gears or in cities with
many traffic lights. Winding mountain roads and rough
road surfaces also adversely affect consumption.
Traffic hold-ups
During prolonged hold-ups (e.g. level crossings) the
engine should be switched off.
