NOTE Your vehicle uses the air condi-
tioning refrigerant HFC-134a, commonly
called “R-134a”. R-134a replaced R-12
around 1993 for automotive applications.
Other refrigerants are available, including
recycled R-12, but only R-134a should be
used in your vehicle.
IMPORTANT Using the wrong refriger-
ant may damage your air conditioning sys-
tem. Use R-134a only. Do not mix or re-
place the R-134a with other refrigerants.AUTOMATIC HEATING

CONDITIONING
SYSTEM
(Climate Control)
DESCRIPTION OF CONTROLS
Temperature selector/ Air
conditioning switch (1)
This is used to select the temperature by
turning the selector.
Also, this is used to turn on and off the
air conditioning system by pushing the
switch. To turn on the air conditioning
system, push in the switch and the indi-
cator light will come on. To turn off the
air conditioning system, push in the
switch again and the indicator light will
go off. MAINTENANCE
If you do not use the air conditioner for
a long period, such as during winter, it may
not give the best performance when you
start using it again. To help maintain op-
timum performance and durability of your
air conditioner, it needs to be run peri-
odically. Operate the air conditioner at
least once a month for one minute with
the engine idling. This circulates the re-
frigerant and oil and helps protect the in-
ternal components.
Your air conditioner is equipped with air
filters. Clean or replace them as specified
in the “Maintenance Schedule” in the “IN-
SPECTION AND MAINTENANCE” sec-
tion. Have this job done by your Fiat Deal-
ership as the lower glove box must be
lowered for this job.

Refill with Oil and Check for Leaks
❒Pour oil through the filler hole and in-
stall the filler cap.
For the approximate capacity of the oil,
refer to the “Capacities” item in the
“SPECIFICATIONS” section.
❒Start the engine and look carefully for
leaks at the oil filter and drain plug. Run
the engine at various speeds for at least
5 minutes.
❒Stop the engine and wait about 5 min-
utes. Check the oil level again and add
oil if necessary. Check for leaks again.
IMPORTANT

Fiat replacement filter. If you use an af-
termarket filter, make sure it is of
equivalent quality and follow the man-
ufacturer’s instructions.
❒Oil leaks from around the oil filter or
drain plug indicate incorrect installation
or gasket damage. If you find any leaks
or are not sure that the filter has been
properly tightened, have the vehicle in-
spected by your Fiat Dealership.Transfer oil (4WD)
