TACHOMETER
(speed indicator) fig. 11
It shows the vehicle speed.REV. COUNTER fig. 12
The rev counter shows the engine rpm.
IMPORTANT The electronic injection con-
trol system gradually shuts off the flow of
fuel when the engine is “over-revving” re-
sulting in a gradual loss of engine power.
When the engine is idling, the rev counter
may indicate a gradual or sudden increase
of the speed. This is normal and does not
indicate a fault. It may be caused, for ex-
ample, by the operation of the climate
control system or fan. In this case, a slow
change in engine speed is used to protect
the battery charge.

After demisting/defrosting, operate the
standard controls to restore the required
comfort conditions.
IMPORTANT The climate control system
is very useful for faster demisting because
it dries the air. Regulate the controls as
described above and engage the climate
control by pressing knob C.Window demisting
In the event of considerable external mois-
ture and/or rain and/or considerable dif-
ferences in temperature inside and out-
side the passenger compartment, perform
the following preventive demisting proce-
dure:
❒turn cursor Bon

When the function is active, a led on the
button goes on.
To disable this function, press the button

SERVICING THE SYSTEM
Let the climate control system run for at
least 10 minutes every month during the
winter. Have the system inspected at a Fi-
at Dealership before the summer. REGULATING THE FAN SPEED
To ventilate the passenger compartment
properly proceed as follows:
❒fully open the central air vents and side
outlets;
❒turn knob Ato the blue section;
❒turn cursor Bon

©.ACTIVATION OF
INTERNAL AIR
RECIRCULATION
Turn cursor Bto position
v.
It is advisable to activate air recirculation
during vehicle stops in queues or tunnels
to prevent the introduction of polluted air
from the outside.
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 internal air recircula-
tion system makes it possible to reach the
required “heating” or “cooling” condi-
tions faster. Do not use the air recircula-
tion function on rainy/cold days as it would
considerably increase the possibility of the
windows misting inside.

CONTAINING
RUNNING COSTS
Here are some useful tips to save fuel and
minimize polluting emissions of CO
2and
other pollutants (nitric oxide, unburnt hy-
drocarbons, fine dusts etc…).GENERAL REMARKS
Vehicle maintenance
Have checks and adjustments carried out
in accordance with the “Scheduled Service
Plan”.
Tyres
Check tyre pressure regularly at least
once every four weeks: excessively low
pressure will increase consumption be-
cause rolling resistance will be higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded boot.
The weight of the vehicle (especially when
driving in town) and its trim greatly affect
fuel consumption and stability.
Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack from
the roof after use. These accessories de-
crease aerodynamic penetration of the ve-
hicle and have a negative effect on fuel
consumption. It is better to use a trailer
to transport particularly bulky objects.Electric devices
Use electric devices only for the amount
of time needed. The rear heated window,
additional headlights, windscreen wipers
and heater fan need a considerable
amount of energy, therefore increasing fu-
el consumption (up to +25% in the urban
cycle).
Climate control
The climate control system leads to high-
er fuel consumption (up to +20% on av-
erage): use air vents only when the ex-
ternal temperature allows it.
Spoilers
The use of non-certified spoilers may ad-
versely affect air drag and fuel consump-
tion levels.
