To deactivate the volumetric surveillance: the
volumetric protection function can be deactivated
before activating the electronic alarm in this way: turn
the ignition key from STOP and bring it in rapid
succession onto MAR then back to STOP, after which,
remove the key.
The led (F) on the instrument panel will light up for
about 2 seconds to confirm that the sensors have been
cut off.
To reactivate the volumetric protection (before
enabling the electronic alarm) turn the key to MAR for
more than 30 seconds.
If, however, the volumetric protection has been
deactivated and you wish to operate one of the
electronic controls managed by the ignition key in
MAR (e.g. electric windows) turn the key to MAR, use
the required electric control then bring the key back
to STOP within 30 seconds. In this way the volumetric
protection will not be reactivated.
To cut out the siren: press the remote control button
for about 4 seconds when enabling the electronic
alarm.
Five beeps will be heard which indicate that the siren
has been disabled and the alarm has been enabled.SELF-TEST
If when switching the car alarm on, you hear a “beep”
followed after about one second by a shorter “beep”,
check that the doors, bonnet and boot are all closed
properly, then try switching the alarm on again. If the
problem repeats, contact Fiat Dealership.
PROGRAMMING THE SYSTEM
When your new car is handed over to you, the
electronic alarm has already been programmed by the
Fiat Dealership. Any subsequent programming should
also be carried out by a Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT The electronic alarm operation is
prepared according to the laws of the specific country.
This operation is only to be carried out by a Fiat
Dealership, to avoid damaging the electronic memory
storage system.

When driving the mirrors shall always be in position (1).
As the door mirrors are curved, they may slightly alter the perception of distance. The fixed part of the right-hand mirror reflects the
rear right wheel when parking.
This can only be adjusted with the ignition key at MAR.
Use switch (C) to select the mirror (left, neutral, right)
for adjustment.
Press any of the four directions on switch (D) located
on the ceiling light.
Switch (E) electrically controls the movement of the
folding mirrors from position 1 to position 2.
Electrically folding mirrors have a demisting device that
comes on automatically when rear window heating is
turned on.The mirrors can tilt in both directions in the event of a
collision.
To reset the mirror in the correct position, first set it
in the fully closed position by keeping the control
pressed until the mirror stops, then open it.
If the mirror is moved out of its position manually, it is
possible to set it back to the correct position
manually, although it is preferable to move it
electrically. If the mirror is moved out of its position
electrically, it is COMPULSORY to set it back
electrically to its correct position.
If the open mirror makes it difficult to pass through
narrow gaps, fold it from position 1 to position 2.

Extra heater
For very cold climates the diesel version can be fitted
with an extra heater that is fully automatic and ensures
maximum comfort inside the passenger compartment.
RECIRCULATION
With slider on
Tonly the inside air is circulated.
IMPORTANT This function is particularly useful when
the outside air is heavily polluted (in a traffic jam,
tunnel, etc.) However, it is better not to use it for long
periods, especially if there are several people in the
car.
IMPORTANT Do not use the air recirculation function
on rainy/cold days as it would considerably increase
the possibility of the windows misting inside.

IMPORTANT The climate control system is very
useful for faster demisting because it dries the air.
Adjust the controls for demisting as described above
and press switch

on).Rear window
Press button

also comes on.
As soon as the rear window is clear, switch the device

RECIRCULATION
When switch
Tis pressed (led on) only internal air
circulates.
IMPORTANT When the outside temperature is very
high, switching on the recirculation system will cool
the air more quickly. Moreover it is very useful when
the outside air is heavily polluted (in a traffic jam,
tunnel, etc.). You are advised against using this facility
for long periods, especially if there are many people in
the car.
IMPORTANT Do not use the air recirculation function
on rainy/cold days as it would considerably increase
the possibility of the windows misting inside.
When the car is fitted with climate control, it is also
fitted with pollen filter. This captures fastidious
particles and dust.
The system uses R134a cooling fluid, which if accidentally spilt, does not damage the environment.
Never use R12 fluid, which could damage the system components.

FAST DEMISTING AND/OR DEFROSTING
1) Air distribution knob, pointer to
MAX/DEF.
The system is set for rapid demisting/defrosting of the
windscreen and side windows by activating the
following functions automatically:
❒max temperature
❒high air flow
The system limits the fan speed until the fluid reaches
the temperature required to prevent cool air entering
the passenger compartment.
❒air recirculation off (led off) so that outside air is
directed into the passenger compartment;
❒compressor on (led on);
❒air distribution to windscreen.
When the windscreen and windows have been
demisted/defrosted, adjust the air distribution knob to
restore the required conditions.IMPORTANT An important characteristic of the
climate control system is the de-humidification of the
air. We recommend that you always engage the
compressor by pressing button
√(led on) to prevent
misting.
IMPORTANT When outside humidity is high or when
it is raining or when there is a big difference in
temperature between temperature inside the
passenger compartment and the outside air, you can
prevent the windows misting up by proceeding as
follows:
❒air recirculation off (led off);
❒air temperature knob to
HI;
❒fan speed to 2
ndspeed at least;
❒air distribution knob to
-with possibility of
changing to
≤if the windows do not begin to steam
up;
❒engage the compressor by pressing switch
