IMPORTANT It is advisable to switch the air
recirculation on whilst queuing or in tunnels, or
whilst driving on dusty roads, to prevent the
introduction of polluted air. However, it is better not
to use the function for long periods, particularly if
there are many people on board, to prevent the
windows from misting.

Pressing thebutton switches the system on/off.
With the system off, the climate control system
conditions are as follows:
❒all LEDs are off;
❒set temperature display is off;
❒air recirculation is off;
❒compressor is off;
❒fan is off.

When the AUTO button is pressed and the required
temperature is set, the system adjusts thetemperature, quantity and distribution of air entering
the passenger compartment and controls
compressor operation.
Button I - Air temperature increase
When the button is pressed, the passenger
compartment air temperature increases.
Button L - Air temperature decrease
When the button is pressed, the passenger
compartment air temperature decreases.
DESCRIPTION
The automatically controlled parameters and
functions are:
❒air temperature at the vents;
❒air distribution at the vents;
❒fan speed (continuous variation of the air flow);
❒compressor activation (for cooling/dehumidifying
the air);
❒air recirculation.
All functions may be changed manually. In other
words, you may select one or more functions and
change the parameters as required. Automatic
control of the manually changed functions will be
suspended: the system will only override your
settings for safety-related reasons (e.g. risk
of misting).

This function is timed and switches off automatically
after 4 minutes for the windscreen and 20 minutes
for the rear window and door mirrors.
Press the
button again to switch the function off
in advance.
To activate the heated windscreen again press the
button
:
❒twice with LED on the button still on;
❒once with LED on the button off.
When the button
is pressed, the heated
windscreen activates if it has not been activated
already by button.
IMPORTANT Do not apply stickers on the inside of
the rear window over the heating filaments to avoid
damage.
IMPORTANT To draw in air from the outside, press
the
button. The LED next to the button
switches off.
INTERNAL AIR RECIRCULATION
ACTIVATION
Air recirculation is carried out according to two
possible operating modes:
❒forced deactivation (air recirculation always
deactivated, air taken from the outside);
❒forced activation (internal air circulation always
activated).
To activate internal air recirculation, press button D
.❒LED on button on: internal air recirculation on;
❒LED on button off: internal air recirculation off, air
drawn in from outside.
When the
button is pressed, the climate control
system automatically activates internal air
recirculation. External air recirculation can always be
activated by pressing the
button (LED off )
and vice versa.
Automatic recirculation operation is activated by
pressing the AUTO button.
IMPORTANT Internal air recirculation makes it
possible to reach the required heating or cooling
conditions more quickly depending on the mode
selected. It is not advisable to switch the air
recirculation on when it is rainy/cold to prevent the
windows from misting up, especially if the climate
control is not turned on. It is advisable to switch the
internal air recirculation on whilst queuing or in
tunnels, or whilst driving on dusty roads, to prevent
the introduction of polluted air. Do not use the
function for a long time, particularly if there are
several passengers on board, to prevent the windows
from misting up.

Have the system inspected at a Fiat Dealership
before the summer.
The system uses R134a coolant which
does not pollute the environment in the
event of accidental leakage. Never use
R12 fluid, which is not compatible with the
system components.
ADDITIONAL HEATER
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This allows the passenger compartment to be heated
more quickly in cold weather conditions. The heater
switches on automatically according to the
environmental conditions and with engine started
when the temperature of the engine coolant is low.
The additional heater turns off automatically after
the required comfort conditions are achieved.
The heater only operates if the outside temperature
and engine coolant temperature are low. The heater
will not activate if the battery voltage is too low.
Interaction of Automatic Climate Control
with START&STOP
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Automatic Climate Control
The automatic climate control manages the
Start&Stop function (engine off when the car speed
is zero) to guarantee adequate comfort inside the
passenger compartment.In particular, when the weather is extremely hot or
cold, the Start&Stop function is deactivated until
adequate passenger compartment comfort is
ensured. During these transitory stages the engine is
not stopped, even if the car speed is zero.
When the Start&Stop function is active (engine off at
zero car speed), the climate control system will
request the reactivation of the engine if the inside
temperature conditions rapidly deteriorate (or if the
user requests maximum cooling – LO – or quick
demisting – MAX DEF).
With Start&Stop function active (engine off at zero
car speed), the air flow rate (if managed
automatically) is reduced in order to maintain the
passenger compartment comfort conditions for
as long as possible.
The climate control system control unit manages the
decreased comfort caused by stopping the engine,
and consequently the compressor, as far as possible.
The operation of the climate control system can in
any case be favoured by deactivating the Start&Stop
function using the dedicated button on the
dashboard.
NOTE In particularly severe climate conditions it is
recommended to limit the use of the Start&Stop
function to prevent the compressor from
continuously switching on and off, with consequent
rapid misting of the windows and accumulation of
humidity with unpleasant smells in the passenger
compartment.

STORING THE CARIf the car is to be left inactive for longer than a
month, the following precautions should be taken:
❒park the car in covered, dry and if possible
well-ventilated premises and slightly open
the windows;
❒engage a gear and check that the handbrake is not
engaged;
❒disconnect the negative battery terminal (for
versions with Start&Stop system refer to the
paragraph "Start&Stop system" in the chapter
"Knowing your car"); If the battery is not
disconnected from the electrical system, check its
charge every thirty days;
❒clean and protect the painted parts using
protective wax;
❒clean and protect the shiny metal parts using
special compounds available commercially;❒sprinkle talcum powder on the windscreen and
rear window wiper rubber blades and lift them
off the glass;
❒cover the car with a cloth or perforated plastic
sheet. Do not use sheets of non-perforated plastic
as they do not allow moisture on the car body
to evaporate;
❒inflate tyres to +0.5 bar above the standard
specified pressure and check it at intervals;
❒do not drain the engine cooling system.

PARAFLU
UP
anti-freeze is used in the
engine cooling system. Use the same fluid
as in the cooling system when topping
up. PARAFLU
UP
cannot be mixed with any other
type of fluid. If this happens, do not start the
engine and contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
The cooling system is pressurised. If
necessary, only replace the cap with
another genuine one or the operation of the
system may be adversely affected. Do not
remove the reservoir cap when the engine is
hot : you risk scalding yourself.
WINDSCREEN/REAR WINDOW WASHING
FLUID
If the level is too low, raise reservoir cap D (see
previous pages) and add the fluid described in the
chapter "Technical Specifications".
WARNING
Do not travel if the windscreen washer
reservoir is empty: using the windscreen
washer is essential for improving visibility. Some
commercial windscreen washer additives are
flammable.The engine compartment contains
hot components which may set it on fire.BRAKE FLUID
Check that the liquid is at the maximum level (the
fluid level in the reservoir must not exceed the MAX
mark). If the fluid level in the tank is too low, undo
reservoir cap E (see previous pages) and add the fluid
described in the chapter "Technical Specifications".
NoteCarefully clean the cap of the reservoir E and
the surrounding surface.
When opening the cap, make sure that no dirt gets
into the reservoir.
For topping-up, always use a funnel with integrated
filter with mesh equal to or lower than 0.12 mm.
IMPORTANT Brake fluid is hygroscopic (i.e. it
absorbs moisture). For this reason, if the car is
mainly used in areas with a high degree of
atmospheric humidity, the fluid should be replaced at
more frequent intervals than specified in the
“Scheduled Servicing Plan”.
Prevent brake fluid, which is highly
corrosive, from coming into contact with
painted parts. Should it happen,
immediately wash with water.
