climate control FIAT PUNTO EVO 2010 1.G User Guide

Enabling the AQS (Air Quality System) function
The AQS function (AQS appears on the display), auto-
matically activates internal air recirculation when the out-
side air is polluted (e.g. in traffic queues and tunnels).
IMPORTANT With the AQS function active, after 15 con-
secutive minutes of the internal air recirculation system
functioning, the climate control system enables the intake
of outside air for approximately 1 minute to freshen the
air in the passenger compartment. This takes place re-
gardless of the pollution level of the outside air.
SET TEMPERATURE ALIGNMENT
(MONO function)
Press the MONO button to align the temperature be-
tween the driver side and passenger side.
Then turn the AUTO or MONO knob to in-
crease/decrease the temperature between the two areas
by the same amount.
Press MONO again to deactivate the function.

With the climate control compressor switched off, air can-
not be introduced into the passenger compartment at a
lower temperature than the outside; in this case the ò
symbol on the display will flash.
The deactivation of the climate control compressor is
memorized even after the engine has stopped. To turn the
climate control compressor back on, press button òonce
again or press AUTO: if you press AUTO, the other man-
ual settings will be cancelled.
SETTING THE AIR DISTRIBUTION
Press one or more of buttons Q/E/Zto manually select
one of the 7 possible air distribution settings for the pas-
senger compartment:
QAir flow to the windscreen and front side window
vents to demist/defrost them.
ZAir flow to the front and rear footwell vents. This
air distribution warms up the passenger compart-
ment quickly.

screen and front side window demisting/defrosting
vents.
EAir flow distribution to centre/side dashboard vents
(passenger’s body).
QAir flow distribution between the footwell
Zvents and the windscreen and front side window
demisting/defrosting vents. This distribution setting
allows warms up the passenger compartment and
prevents the windows from misting up.
ZEAir flow distribution between footwell vents (hot-
ter air) and centre/side dashboard vents and rear
vent (cooler air).
EQAir flow distribution between centre/side dash-
board vents, rear vent and windscreen and front
side window demisting/defrosting vents. This dis-
tribution setting ventilates the passenger compart-
ment and prevents the windows from misting up.
IMPORTANT For the climate control system to function,
at least one of the following buttons must be on: Q/E/Z.
The system does not allow all the buttons Q/E/Zto be
switched off.
IMPORTANT Push the OFF button to turn the climate
control system back on: in this way, all previously saved
operating conditions are restored before switching off.
To restore automatic control of the air distribution after
a manual selection, press the AUTO button.ADDITIONAL HEATER
(for versions/markets where provided)
This device warms up the passenger compartment more
quickly when it is very cold and the engine coolant tem-
perature is low.
In these conditions, the device comes on automatically
when the engine is started and the fan is on.
The additional heater turns off automatically after reach-
ing the required comfort conditions.
IMPORTANT The heater will not turn on if the battery
voltage is too low.
SWITCHING OFF THE CLIMATE CONTROL
SYSTEM
Press the OFF button.
The following information is shown on the display:
❒ the word OFF;
❒outside temperature reading;
❒indication that air recirculation is switched on (LED on
button

SAFETY FUNCTIONS
In engine cut-out conditions through the Start&Stop sys-
tem, if the driver unfastens his/her seat belt and opens the
driver’s door or the passenger door, the engine can be
restarted only by using the key.
The driver is notified of this condition both by a buzzer
and through an information message on the display and
(for versions/markets where provided) by the warning light
fig. 121 on the instrument panel flashing.
ENERGY SAVING FUNCTION
(For versions/markets where provided)
If, after the engine has been automatically restarted, the
driver does not take any action for a period of about 3
minutes, the Start&Stop system will definitively stop the
engine to avoid fuel consumption. In these cases, the en-
gine can be restarted only by using the key.
NB: In any case, it is possible to keep the engine running
by deactivating the Start&Stop system. RESTARTING CONDITIONS
For reasons of comfort, limiting harmful emissions and safe-
ty purposes, the power unit can restart automatically with-
out any action on behalf of the driver if certain conditions
are met, including:
❒ battery not sufficiently charged;
❒ windscreen wipers working at maximum speed;
❒extreme braking system pressure, e.g. following the
brake pedal being pressed repeatedly;
❒ car moving around, for example when driving on hilly
roads;
❒stopping the engine through the Start&Stop system for
more than about three minutes.
❒automatic climate control system for establishing a com-
fortable temperature or enabling the MAX – DEF func-
tion.
With a gear engaged, the engine can be automatically
restarted only by fully depressing the clutch pedal. The dri-
ver is asked to perform this operation through a message
on the instrument panel and, where provided, by the warn-
ing light fig. 121 on the instrument panel flashing
NB: If the clutch is not pressed, when the three minutes
have elapsed since the engine was stopped, the engine can
be restarted only by using the key.
NB: In cases when the engine stops and this is not desired,
due for example to the clutch pedal being released sharply
with a gear engaged, if the Start&Stop system is activat-
ed, the engine can be restarted by fully depressing the
clutch pedal or by putting the gear lever into neutral.KNOWING

IMPORTANT
Before opening the bonnet, make sure
that the car is switched off and the key is
in the OFF position. Follow the instructions on the
plate near the front crossmember fig. 124a. It is
advisable to extract the key when there are oth-
er people in the car. The car should always be
evacuated after the key has been removed or
turned to the OFF position. During refuelling op-
erations, it is necessary to make sure that the car
is off with the ignition key in the OFF position.
WARNING
For cars with a robotised transmission, if
the engine cuts out automatically on a
gradient, it is advisable to restart the engine by
moving the gear lever towards (+) or (-) without
releasing the brake pedal. For vehicles with Dua-
logic transmission, where the Hill Holder function
is present, if the engine cuts out automatically
whilst on a hill, it is advisable to restart it by mov-
ing the gear lever towards (+) or towards (-) with-
out releasing the brake pedal to make the Hill
Holder function – which is active only when the
engine is running – available.
WARNING
If you want to prioritise climate comfort,
the Start&Stop system can be disabled to
allow continuous operation of the climate control
system.

FUEL CONSUMPTION
The fuel consumption figures given in the table below are
determined on the basis of the homologation tests set
down by specific European Directives.
The procedures below are followed for measuring con-
sumption:
❒urban cycle: cold starting followed by driving that sim-
ulates urban use of the car;
❒extra-urban cycle: driving that simulates using the ve-
hicle out of town with frequent acceleration in all gears;
the speed varies from 0 to 120 km/h;
❒combined consumption: this is calculated with a weight-
ing of about 37% urban cycle consumption and about
63% extra-urban consumption.
IMPORTANT The type of route, traffic situations, weath-
er conditions, driving style, general state of the car, trim
level/equipment/accessories, load, climate control system,
roof rack, and other situations that affect how the car
moves through the air may lead to different fuel con-
sumption levels than those measured.
Fuel consumption according to the current European directive (litres x 100 km)
