The fabric upholstery of your
car is designed to withstand
normal wear and tear for
a long time. Some precautions
are needed though. Avoid prolonged
and/or excessive rubbing against cloth-
ing accessories such as metal buckles
and Velcro strips which, by applying
a high pressure on the fabric in a small
area, could cause some threads to
break, thereby damaging the upholstery.

LOOKING AFTER THE SYSTEM
Run the climate control system for at least
10 minutes every month during the win-
ter. Have the system inspected at a Fiat
Dealership before the summer.
The system uses R134a re-
frigerant fluid which does not
harm the environment in the
event of accidental leakage.
Never use R12 fluid, which is not com-
patible with the system components.IMPORTANT The air internal recircula-
tion system makes it possible to reach the
required heating or cooling conditions
faster.
Do not use the air internal recirculation
function on rainy/cold days as it would
considerably increase the possibility of the
windows misting up. INTERNAL AIR INTERNAL
RECIRCULATION ACTIVATION

ternal recirculation on while standing in

troduction of polluted air. Do not use the

there are many passengers on board, to
