TRIP COMPUTER
General features
The “Trip computer” displays information
(with ignition key at MAR), relating to the
operating status of the car. This function
comprises two separate and independent
trips: “Trip A” and “Trip B” concerning
the “complete mission” of the car (jour-
ney).
Both functions are resettable (reset - start
of new mission).
“Trip A” shall be used to display the fig-
ures relating to:
– 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
Range
This value shows the distance in km (or
mi) that the car 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)
– car 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.

Climate control compressor on/off
button B
Pressing button
√when the button led
is on, will deactivate compressor and turn
the button led off. Pressing the button
when the led is off will activate compres-
sor and turn the button led on. When
turning the compressor off, the system will
deactivate air recirculation to prevent win-
dow misting up.
In this event, although the system is able
to keep the required temperature, the
wording FULLwill disappear from the
display. If the system is no longer able to
keep the required temperature, temper-
ature value will flash and the wording
AUTOwill disappear from the display.
IMPORTANT With the climate control
compressor off, it is not possible to admit
air to the passenger compartment with a
temperature below the outside tempera-
ture; moreover, under certain environ-
mental conditions, windows could mist up
fastly since air is not dehumidified.
The switching off of the climate control
compressor remains in storage even when
the engine has been stopped.
To restore automatic control for switch-
ing on the climate control compressor,
press again button
√or press button AU-
TO.
With climate control compressor off if
outside temperature is higher than the set
one the system will not be able to keep
the required condition, the temperaturevalue will then start to flash on the display
for a few seconds and wording AUTO
will then go off.
With climate control compressor off, the
fan speed can be set to zero manually.
With compressor on and engine running,
the fan speed cannot be lower that one
bar on the display.
Fast window demisting/defrosting
button F
Press this button: the climate control sys-
tem will automatically switch on all the
functions required for fast windscreen and
front side window demisting/defrosting,
that is:
❒ switches on climate control compres-
sor when climatic conditions are suit-
able;
❒air recirculation off;
❒maximum air temperature HIon both
areas;
❒activates proper fan speed according to
engine coolant temperature to limit the
flow into the passenger compartment of
air not warm enough to demist the win-
dows;
❒ directs air flow to windscreen and front
side windows vents;
❒turns heated rear window on.IMPORTANT Fast demisting/defrosting
function stays on for about 3 minutes,
since engine coolant temperature reach-
es the proper temperature.
When the max. demisting/defrosting func-
tion is on, the button led and the heated
rear window button led are on.
FULL AUTOwording on the display is
off.
When the max. demisting/defrosting func-
tion is on, the only manual operations pos-
sible are manual adjustment of the fan
speed and switching heated rear window
off. Pressing the max. demisting/defrost-
ing button or the air recirculation buttons
or compressor off button or the AUTO
button, the system switches off the max.
demisting/defrosting function and restores
the operating conditions of the system pri-
or to turning it on.

RAIN SENSOR (where provided)
The rain sensor is located behind the dri-
ving mirror in contact with the windscreen
and has the purpose of automatically ad-
just, during the intermittent operation, the
frequency of the windscreen wiper
strokes as to the rain intensity.
IMPORTANT Keep clean the glass in the
sensor area.
Activation
Move the right-hand stalk knurled ring to
≤fig. 44.
The activation of the rain sensor is sig-
nalled by a control acquisition “stroke”.
Through the set up menu it is possible to
increase the sensitivity of the rain sensor.
The increase of the sensitivity of the rain
sensor is signalled by a control and acqui-
sition “stroke”.
Operating the windscreen washer with
the rain sensor activated the normal wash-
ing cycle is performed at the end of which
the rain sensor resumes its normal auto-
matic function.Deactivation
Change the stalk knurled ring position
from
≤fig. 44or turn the ignition key
to STOP.
At next engine starting (key at MAR), the
sensor will not be reactivated even if the
knurled ring is still at
≤fig. 44. To ac-
tivate the rain sensor you have to move
the knurled ring from
≤to another po-
sition and then again to
≤.
Rain sensor activation will be indicated by
at least one wiper “stroke” even if the
windscreen is dry.
The rain sensor is able to recognize and
automatically adjust itself in the presence
of the following particular conditions:
❒ impurities on the controlled surface
(salt, dirt, etc.);
❒difference between day and night.
IMPORTANT Streaks of water may cause
unrequired blade moving. “Smart washing” function
Pulling the stalk towards the steering wheel
(unstable position) operates the wind-
screen washer.
Keeping the stalk pulled for more than half
a second, with just one movement it is
possible to operate the washer jet and the
wiper at the same time.
The wiper stops working three strokes af-
ter releasing the stalk.
A further stroke after 6 seconds com-
pletes the wiping operation.

TO RESET THE
MEMORISED SPEED
If the device has been disengaged for ex-
ample pressing the brake or clutch pedal,
the memorised speed can be reset as fol-
lows:
❒accelerate gradually until reaching a
speed approaching the one memorised;
❒engage the gear selected at the time of
speed memorising;
❒press button RES B-fig. 47.
TO INCREASE THE
MEMORISED SPEED
The speed memorised can be increased in
two ways:
❒pressing the accelerator and then mem-
orising the new speed reached;
or
❒moving the stalk upwards (+).
Each operation of the stalk will corre-
spond to a slight increase in speed (about
1 km/h), while keeping the stalk upwards
will correspond to a continuous speed in-
crease. TO REDUCE
MEMORISED SPEED
The speed memorised can be increased in
two ways:
❒disengaging the device and then mem-
orising the new speed;
or
❒moving the stalk downwards (–) until
reaching the new speed which will be
memorised automatically.
Each operation of the stalk will corre-
spond to a slight reduction in speed (about
1 km/h), while keeping the stalk down-
wards will correspond to a continuous
speed reduction.
DEVICE DISENGAGEMENT
The device can be disengaged in the fol-
lowing ways:
❒turn knob Ato OFF;
❒turning the engine off;
❒pressing the brake pedal;
❒pressing the clutch pedal;
❒pressing the accelerator pedal; in this
case the system is not really disengaged
but the request for acceleration takes
priority over the system. The cruise
control is however active and it will not
be necessary to press button RES B-
fig. 47to resume previous conditions
after ending acceleration.
The device is automatically deactivated in
one of the following cases:
❒ABSor ESPsystem cut-in;
❒ with car speed below the preset limit;
❒system failure.
When travelling with the de-
vice on, never set the
gearshift lever to neutral.
WARNING
In the event of device mal-
function or failure, turn knob
A to OFF and contact a Fiat Dealer-
ship.
