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 sent 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:
❒air recirculation, to keep the
function always either on or off;
❒
to speed up demisting/defrosting
of windscreen, rear window and
external rear view 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 sent into the passenger
compartment cannot be lower than
that of the outside air.CONTROLS
Air temperature
adjustment knob (I)
Turn the knob either clockwise or
counterclockwise to increase or
lower the requested temperature in
the passenger compartment.
The set temperature is shown on
the display.
Turn the knob either fully to the right
or fully to the left to the extreme HI
or LO position to turn the maximum
heating or maximum cooling
functions on:
❒HI function (maximum heating):
select by turning the temperature
knob clockwise beyond the
maximum value (32°C).
This function may be used to heat
up the passenger compartment
by exploiting the system's potential
to the full. In this event, the system
stops controlling the temperature
automatically and sets the air
mixing to maximum heating. The air
speed and distribution are fixed.
37

These operating conditions are
obtained by pressing air
recirculation button G in sequence.
IMPORTANT The engagement of
the air recirculation system makes it
possible to reach the required
heating or cooling conditions faster.
It is however inadvisable to use it
on rainy/cold days as it would
considerably increase the possibility
of the windows misting inside,
especially if the climate control
compressor is off.
To prevent the windows from
misting up, the recirculation is
forced off (i.e. air is drawn in from
the outside) when the outside
temperature is cold.
It is advisable not to use the air
recirculation function when the
outside temperature is low to
prevent the windows from rapidly
misting up.Climate control
compressor
enablement/off button
(F)
Press button
to switch the
climate control compressor off (if
on). The icon on the display will go
out.
Press the button when the LED is
off to restore automatic system
control of compressor activation.
The icon will light up on the display.
The system will switch recirculation
off when the compressor is
switched off to prevent windows
from misting up. Although the
system is capable of maintaining
the required temperature, the word
FULL will disappear from the
display. If, on the other hand, it is
no longer capable of maintaining
the temperature, the letters flash
and the word AUTO goes out.
IMPORTANT With the compressor
off, it is not possible to introduce air
cooler than ambient temperature
into the passenger compartment.
Furthermore, in certain conditions,
the windows could mist up rapidly
because the air is not dehumidified.The system remembers that the
compressor has been switched off,
even after the engine has stopped.
To restore automatic compressor
control, press thebutton again
(in this case, the system will only
work as a heater) or press the
AUTO button.
With the compressor switched off,
if the outside temperature is higher
than the one set, the system is
not capable of satisfying this
request. This is signalled by the
target temperature 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 be reduced to the minimum
setting (only one bar shown).

❒manualpressing the “immediate
heating” button on the timer again
(flame button 6).
In both cases, the heating warning
light, the display lighting and the
passenger compartment heater fan
go off and burning stops.The fluid circulation pump
continues to work for around two
minutes to dissipate as much
heat as possible; the heater can be
turned back on during this stage.
22)
IMPORTANT The parking heater
goes off when battery voltage is low
to allow the vehicle to be started.
IMPORTANT Before turning on the
device, ensure that the fuel level
is above the reserve. Otherwise the
device could lock and require the
assistance of a Fiat Dealership.
❒Always turn off the heater when
refuelling and near service stations to
avoid the risk of explosion or fire
hazards.
❒Do not park the vehicle on
inflammable material such as paper,
grass or dry leaves: fire hazard!
❒The temperature near the heater
should not exceed 120°C (e.g. during
oven painting in a body shop). The
electronic control unit components
may be damaged at higher
temperatures.❒Whilst the heater is operating with the
engine switched off, it absorbs
energy from the battery; the engine
should therefore be left running
for a while to make sure that the
battery is properly recharged.
❒To check the coolant level, follow the
instructions in the "Vehicle
maintenance" chapter, "Engine
coolant system fluid" paragraph. The
water in the heating circuit must
contain a minimum percentage of
10% antifreeze.
❒For maintenance and repairs, consult
only a Fiat Dealership and use only
original parts.MAINTENANCE
Have the additional heater checked
regularly at a Fiat Dealership (and
always at the start of every winter).
This will guarantee safe and
economic operation of the heater
as well as a long duration.
