Warning light B may light up (and a message on the mul-
tifunction display may appear on certain versions) to in-
dicate that the coolant fluid temperature is too high; in this
case, stop the engine and contact a Fiat Dealership. ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE
GAUGE fig. 17
This shows the temperature of the engine coolant fluid and
starts working when the fluid temperature exceeds ap-
prox. 50°C.
Under normal usage, the needle should hover around the
middle of the scale according to the working conditions.
C Low engine coolant temperature.
H High engine coolant temperature.
If the needle reaches the red area, stop the
engine immediately and contact a Fiat
Dealership.

ZEAir flow distribution between front and rear vents,
centre/side dashboard vents, rear vent and wind-
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
Tis lit).

STOPPING THE ENGINE
Turn the ignition key to STOP while the engine is idling.
IMPORTANT After a long drive, you should allow the en-
gine to “catch its breath” before turning it off by letting it
idle to allow the temperature in the engine compartment
to fall. WARMING UP THE ENGINE AFTER IT HAS
JUST STARTED (petrol and diesel versions)
Proceed as follows:
❒drive off slowly at medium revs, and accelerate
smoothly;
❒do not demand maximum performance for the first few
kilometres. Wait until the engine coolant gauge starts
moving.

CONTENTSRemember that the brake booster and pow-
er steering are not operational until the en-
gine has been started, so you need to apply
much more force than usual to the brake pedal and
steering wheel.
Never jump start the engine by pushing,
towing or driving downhill. This could cause
fuel to flow into the catalytic converter and
damage it beyond repair.
A quick burst on the accelerator before
turning off the engine serves absolutely no
practical purpose; it wastes fuel and is es-
pecially damaging to turbocharged engines.

HEAVY USAGE OF THE VEHICLE
Should the car be used predominantly in one of the fol-
lowing particularly demanding conditions:
❒ trailer or caravan towing;
❒ dusty roads;
❒short (less than 7-8 km) and repeated journeys in sub-
zero temperatures;
❒frequently idling engine or long-distance, low-speed dri-
ving (e.g. door-to-door deliveries), or in the event of
long-term inactivity;
❒ in cities;
perform the following inspections more frequently than
shown on the Scheduled Servicing Plan:
❒ check condition and wear of front disc brake pads;
❒check cleanliness of bonnet and boot locks, as well as
cleanliness and lubrication of linkages;
❒visually inspect the conditions of: engine, gearbox, trans-
mission, pipes and tubes (exhaust – fuel – brakes), rub-
ber parts (boots, sleeves, bushes, etc.);
❒check battery charge and liquid level (electrolyte);
❒ visually inspect condition of accessory drive belts;
❒ check pollen filter and replace it, if required;
❒ check air filter and replace, if required.
REGULAR CHECKS
Every 1,000 km or before long journeys, check and, if nec-
essary, top up:
❒engine coolant fluid level;
❒brake fluid level;
❒windscreen washer fluid level;
❒tyre pressures and conditions;
❒operation of lighting system (headlights, direction indi-
cators, hazard lights, etc.);
❒operation of the windscreen wiper/washer system, po-
sition and wear of the windscreen and rear window
wiper blades;
Check and top up, if required, the engine oil level every
3,000 km.
You are recommended to use PETRONAS LUBRICANTS
products, which have been designed and produced specif-
ically for Fiat cars (see table “Capacities” in the “Techni-
cal specifications” section).
