Button T - D
Air recirculation on/off
This function is particularly useful when
the outside air is heavily polluted (in a traf-
fic jam, tunnel, etc.).
Button led on = recirculation on.
Button led off = recirculation off.
With low temperatures or compressor
off, air recirculation is deactivated to pre-
vent window misting up.
IMPORTANT It is inadvisable to use air
recirculation on cold days as it would con-
siderably increase the possibility of win-
dows misting up inside.
During AUTOoperation, due to safety rea-
sons, after long recirculation activation (over
25 minutes) the system will deactivate au-
tomatically air recirculation for 1 minute to
enable outside air inlet.
Buttons ÕÔ- E
Temperature setting
Pressing button Õwill raise the passen-
ger’s compartment temperature up to HI
value (maximum heating power).Pressing button Ôwill lower the passen-
ger’s compartment temperature down to
LO value (maximum cooling power).
HI function
This functions can be switched on when
you wish to heat the passenger compart-
ment as quickly as possible; air distribu-
tion and fan speed are controlled by the
system.
To turn this function off, set the required
temperature.
IMPORTANT If the system fluid is not
warm enough, top fan speed will not be
activated immediately to prevent air not
warm enough from entering the passen-
ger compartment.
LO function
This function can be switched on when
you wish to cool the passenger compart-
ment as quickly as possible; with this func-
tion switched on the compressor will be
turned on (if off) whereas air distribution
and fan speed are controlled by the sys-
tem.
To turn this function off, set the required
temperature.
IMPORTANT With the function switched
on, however, all the manual settings can
be made. Button OFF - C
Switching the climate control
system off
Press button OFFto turn the system off.
When turned off the system conditions are
the following:
❒all leds off;
❒temperature display off;
❒air recirculation off;
❒compressor off;
❒fan off.
Under this condition, air recirculation can
be turned on or off without activating the
system.
IMPORTANT The system will store the
settings (except recirculation) performed
before turning off and will resume them
when pressing any button (if the function
corresponding to the button pressed is off
it will be turned on; if on it will be kept ac-
tive). Press AUTOto turn the system in
automatic mode.

Press button - the climate control system
will automatically switch on all the func-

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 (HI);
❒activates proper fan speed according to
engine coolant temperature;
❒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 exceeds
50 °C (petrol versions) or 35 °C (Diesel
versions).
When the demisting/defrosting function is
on, the button led -and the heated rear
window button led (are on, whereas
the AUTObutton led will turn off; when

PARKING SENSORS
(where provided)
Parking sensors are located in the rear
bumper fig. 95and their function is to in-
form the driver, through an intermittent
buzzer, about the presence of obstacles
behind the car.
ACTIVATION
The sensors are automatically activated
when the reverse gear is engaged.
The sound produced by the acoustic alarm
becomes louder when the distance be-
tween the car and the obstacle decreases.
BUZZER WARNINGS
When the reverse gear is engaged an in-
termittent acoustic signal is automatically
activated (short beep indicating that sen-
sors are active).
The acoustic signal:
❒ becomes louder as the reduction of dis-
tance between the car and the obsta-
cle decreases;
❒ becomes continuous when the distance
between the car and the obstacle is less
that 30 cm and stops if the distance rais-
es;
❒is constant if the distance is unvaried.Direction distances
Central action radius 120 cm
Side action radius 60 cm
If several obstacles are detected, the con-
trol unit indicates the nearest one. We suggest to stop immediately the car,
turn off the engine for about 20 seconds
and then re-start the car. If the warning
light
gstays on together with the mes-
sage on the reconfigurable multifunction
display (where provided), contact Fiat
Dealership.
IMPORTANT The steering may become
slightly stiff following parking manoeuvres
including a great deal of steering. This is
normal and caused by a system to prevent
motor overheating. No servicing is re-
quired. The electric power steering sys-
tem will return to normal operation the
next time the car is used.
fig. 95F0G0692m
Always switch the engine off,
remove the key from the
starting device and actuate the steer-
ing lock before carrying out any main-
tenance operation, especially when
the wheels are raised from the
ground. In case this is not possible
(e.g. when the key must be in MAR
position or the engine running); re-
move the electric power steering
main fuse before carrying out any
maintenance operation.
