New mission
A new mission starts after:
– “manual” resetting by the user, by pressing the relevant
button;
– “automatic” resetting, when the “Trip distance” reaches
3999.9 km or 9999.9 km (according to the type of display)
or when the “Trip time” reaches 99.59 (99 hours and 59
minutes);
– disconnection/reconnection of the battery.
IMPORTANT The reset operations performed after the
“General Trip” message displaying are used to also reset
the “Trip B”, which, on its turn, is used to reset the
values of the corresponding function. Average speed
This shows the car average speed as a function of the over-
all time elapsed since the start of the new mission.
Trip time
This value shows the time elapsed since the start of the
new mission.
IMPORTANT Lacking information, Trip Computer values
are displayed with “----”. When normal operating condi-
tion is reset, calculation of different units will restart reg-
ularly. All values displayed before the failure will not be
reset nor a new mission is started.
Button TRIP fig. 29
The button
TRIP
is located on the top of the right-hand
lever. With the ignition key turned to
MAR
, by this but-
ton the previously described parameters can be displayed
and reset to start a new mission:
– short pressing to display the different values;
– prolonged pressing to reset and then start a new
mission.

It is advisable to switch the internal air recirculation on while
standing in queues or in tunnels to prevent the introduc-
tion of polluted air. However, it is better not to use the
function for long periods, particularly if there are many peo-
ple on board, to prevent the windows from misting inside.
IMPORTANT The inside air recirculation system makes it
possible to reach the required heating or cooling condi-
tions faster. Do not use the air recirculation function on
rainy/cold days as it would considerably increase the pos-
sibility of the windows misting inside.

which does not pollute the environment in
the event of accidental leakage. Under no
circumstances should R12 fluid be used as it is in-
compatible with the system components.

at least once a month for about 10 minutes. Before sum-
mer, have the system checked at a Fiat Dealership.

AUTO – button (A) Automatic climate control
system function engagement.
Pressing the
AUTO
button and setting the required tem-
perature, the system adjusts air temperature, quantity and
distribution into the passenger compartment and controls
the compressor operation.
Button
√
– B Compressor on/off
Pressing the button, with LED on, the compressor and the
LED switch off.
Pressing the button when the LED is off, the automatic
system is restored, activating the compressor and turn-
ing the button LED on.
When the compressor is off:
❒
the system will deactivate air recirculation to prevent
window misting up;
AIR CONDITIONS CONTROL
SYSTEM(for versions/markets where provided)
The automatic climate control system automatically reg-
ulates the following depending on the temperature set
by the user:❒
the temperature of the air conveyed to the passenger
compartment;
❒
fan speed (continuous air flow variation);
❒
air distribution inside the passenger compartment;
❒
compressor activation/deactivation (to cool/
dehumidify air);
❒
air recirculation on/off.
The system continuously processes different parameters to
keep constant the comfort inside the passenger compartment
and to compensate for any variation of the outside climate
conditions.All the above functions can be changed manually by se-
lecting the required function/s. Manual setting of a func-
tion does not impair the automatic control of the other
functions even if the
AUTO
button LED is off. Manual se-
lections will always prevail over automatic settings and will
be stored until the user switches the system back to au-
tomatic mode pressing the AUTO
button, except for
the cases in which the system will intervene for particular,
safety-related reasons.

Air recirculation on/off
It is advisable to switch the internal air recirculation on
while standing in queues or in tunnels to prevent the in-
troduction of polluted air.
Led on button ON = recirculation ON.
Led on button OFF = recirculation OFF.
At low temperatures or if the compressor is off, the re-
circulation is forced to off to avoid misting.
IMPORTANT It is inadvisable to use air recirculation on
cold days as it would considerably increase the possibility
of windows misting up inside.
During
AUTO
operation, due to safety reasons and to refresh
air flow, after long recirculation activation (over 25 minutes)
the system will deactivate automatically air recirculation for
1 minute.
Buttons

Temperature setting
Pressing the button
Õ
the temperature in the passen-
ger compartment will rise until the value HI is reached
(maximum heating).
Pressing the button
Ô
the temperature in the passenger
compartment will decrease until the value LO is reached
(maximum cooling).
HI function
This function can be switched on to heat the passenger
compartment as quickly as possible; air distribution and fan
speed are controlled by the system.
To turn this function off, set the required temperature.
❒
it is not possible to convey air to the passenger com-
partment with a temperature below the outside tem-
perature (the displayed temperature value will flash
when the system cannot guarantee the required com-
fort conditions);
❒
the fan speed can be manually reset (with compressor
enabled, ventilation cannot go below a bar shown on
the display).
Button OFF – C
System switching off
Pressing the
OFF
button the system is switched off.
With the system off, the climate control system conditions
are as follows:
❒
all LEDs off;
❒
set 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 re-
sume them when pressing any button (if the function cor-
responding to the button pressed is off, it will be turned
on; if on it will be kept active). Press

❒
maximum air temperature setting (HI); IMPORTANT If the heating fluid is not sufficiently hot, max-
imum fan speed will not be activated immediately to pre-
vent air not warm enough from entering the passenger
compartment.
LO function
This function can be switched on to cool the passenger
compartment as quickly as possible; with this function
switched on the compressor will be engaged whereas air
distribution and fan speed are controlled by the system.
To turn this function off, set the required temperature.
IMPORTANT With the function switched on, however, all
the manual settings can be made.
