INSTRUMENTS
Instrument background colour and type
may vary according to the version.
SPEEDOMETER fig. 11
It shows the car speed.REV. COUNTER fig. 12
Rev counter shows engine rpm.
IMPORTANT The electronic inje ction
control system gradually shuts off the flow
of fuel when the engine is ‘over-revving’
resulting in a gradual loss of engine pow-
er.
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 example, by the
operation of the climate control system
or fan. In these case, a slow change in en-
gine speed is used to protect the battery
charge.

Window demisting
In the event of considerable outside mois-
ture and/or rain and/or considerable
dif-
ferences in temperature inside and outside
the passenger compartment,
perform the
following preventive demisting procedure:
turn knob Ato the red sector;
switch internal air recirculation off;
turn knob Cto and change it back
to if demisting does not improve;
turn knob Bto 2
ndspeed.
IMPORTANT The climate control system
is very useful to prevent window misting
up in presence of high humidity since it
dries the air.HEATED REAR WINDOW DEMIS-
TING/DEFROSTING
(where provided) fig. 34
Press button Ato start this function;
when this function is on the button led is
on.
This function is timed and it will turn off
automatically after 20 minutes. Press A
again to switch it off before.
IMPORTANT Do not apply stickers on
the inside of the rear window over
the
heating filaments to avoid damage that
might cause it to stop working properly.
fig. 34F0R0035m
After demistin g/defrosting, operate the
controls to restore the required comfort.
IMPORTANT The climate control system
is very useful for faster demisting because
it dries the air. Adjust the controls as de-
scribed above and press knob Eto switch
the climate control system on: the LED on
the knob will light up.

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 inside air recirculation
system makes it possible to reach the re-
quired “heating” or “cooling”
conditions
faster.
Do not use the air recirculation function
on rainy/cold days as it would
consider-
ably increase the possibility of the win-
dows misting inside. AIR RECIRCULATION
Move slider Dto position to switch
internal air recirculation on.
It is advisable to switch internal air
recir-
culation on while standing in queues or in
tunnels to prevent the introduction of pol-
luted air. Do not use the function for a
long time,
particularly if there are many
occupants on board, to prevent the win-
dows from misting up.

AUTOMATIC CLIMATE
CONTROL SYSTEM
(where provided)
GENERAL
The automatic climate control system ad-
justs the temperature, the quantity and the
distribution of the air in the
passenger
compartment. Temperature is controlled
on the basis of an
“equivalent tempera-
ture” principle; in other words, the sys-
tem continuously works to keep the com-
fort level inside the car constant and
to
compensate for possible variations of ex-
ternal conditions, including sun radiation
detected by a specific sensor.The automatically controlled parameters
and functions are:
air temperature at the vents;
air distribution at the vents;
fan speed (continuous air flow varia-
tion);
compressor fan on (for cooling/dehu-
midifying the air);
air recirculation.All functions may be manually changed.
In
order words, you may select one or more
functions and change the parameters as
required. Automatic control of the man-
ually changed functions will be suspended:
the system will change override your set-
tings only for safety related reasons (e.g.
risk of misting up).
Manual selections will always have higher
priority over automatic settings and will
be stored until the user switches the sys-
tem back to automatic control by press-
ing AUTOexpect for the cases in which
the system will int ervene for particular,
safety-related reasons.
You can adjust one function automatical-
ly and have the automatic system control
all the others.
The air temperature is always automati-
cally controlled according to the temper-
ature shown on the display (except for
when the system is off or in certain con-
ditions when the compressor is not run-
ning).
