COMPARTMENT AIR
DIFFUSERS
Adjustable air diffusers
They are located at the sides
fig. 31 and at the centre fig. 32 of the
dashboard.
To use them:
adjust the central device 1 to direct
the air flow where required;
turn wheel 2 to adjust / close the air
flow.
Fixed air vents
In addition, the fixed vents 3 fig. 31,
which direct the air upwards and
towards the side windows, are
available. The system is completed by
the fixed central vent, located at the
bottom of the windscreen and by the
vents, which direct the air towards the
feet of the front and rear passengers.

engine coolant temperature low;
engine started;
fan speed set at least to 1stspeed;
knob 1 turned completely clockwise to red section.
The heater is switched off when at least one of the conditions above is no longer verified.
NoteThe power of the electric heater is modulated according to the battery voltage.

9 - internal air recirculation on/off button;
10 - AUTO function activation button (automatic operation).
Stop/Start(where provided)
The automatic climate control system manages the Stop&Start system (engine off when vehicle speed is equal to 0 km/h) to
ensure adequate comfort inside the vehicle.
In particular, the climate control system deactivates the Stop/Start if:
the climate control system is in AUTO mode (LED on the button switched on) and the temperature conditions inside the
vehicle are far from a comfort temperature;
the climate control system is in MAX A/C;
the climate control system is in the MAX-DEF status.
When the Stop&Start system is active (engine off and vehicle speed equal to 0 km/h), the climate control system will request
restarting of the engine if the inside temperature conditions rapidly deteriorate (or if the user requests maximum cooling – MAX
A/C – or quick demisting – MAX-DEF).
With the Stop&Start system on (engine off and vehicle speed equal to 0 km/h), the flow is reduced as much as possible, to
keep the compartment comfort conditions for longer.
The climate control system control unit attempts to manage the decreased comfort caused by stopping the engine as far as
possible (switching off the compressor and engine coolant pump). It is anyway possible to prioritise the operation of the climate
control system, deactivating the Stop/Start system by pressing the
button, located on the central dashboard panel.
NOTE In particularly severe climate conditions it is recommended to limit the use of the Stop&Start system 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.
NOTE When the Stop&Start system is on (engine off and vehicle at a standstill), the automatic recirculation management is
turned off always taking air in from outside, to reduce the probability of the windows misting up (as the compressor is off).
IMPORTANT
1)The system uses a coolant that is compatible with the laws in force in countries where the vehicle is sold, R134a or R1234yf. In case of a
recharge operation, only use the gas indicated on the label placed in the engine compartment. The use of other coolants affects the efficiency
and condition of the system. The lubricant used for the compressor is also strictly linked to the type of cooling gas, please refer to a Fiat
Dealership.

With brake pressed, if the gear lever is
in "AutoStick" mode, the engine can be
restarted by moving the lever to R
(Reverse).
When the engine has been stopped
automatically, keeping the brake pedal
pressed, the brake can be released
keeping the engine off by quickly
shifting the gear lever to P (Park).
To restart the engine, just move the
lever out of position P.
SYSTEM MANUAL
ACTIVATION/
DEACTIVATION
To activate/deactivate the system
manually, press the fig. 100 button
located on the dashboard in central
position.System activation
Activation of the system is indicated by
the
warning light switching on and,
where provided, by a message on the
display.
System deactivation
Deactivation of the system is indicated
by the
warning light switching on
and, where provided, by a message on
the display.
SAFETY FUNCTIONS
When the engine is stopped through
the Stop/Start system, if the driver
releases their seat belt or opens the
driver's or passenger's door, the engine
can be restarted only by using the
ignition device.
This condition is indicated to the driver
both through a buzzer and a message
on the display.
WARNING
116)If the battery needs to be replaced,
always contact a Fiat Dealership. Replace
the battery with a new one of the same
type and specifications.
IMPORTANT
44)If the climate comfort is to be favoured,
the Start&Stop system can be deactivated,
for a continuous operation of the climate
control system.

For any version the towing device used
must be right for the towable weight of
the vehicle on which it is to be installed.
For the electrical connection a standard
connector should be used which is
generally placed on a special bracket
normally fastened to the towing device,
and a special ECU for external trailer
light control must be installed on the
vehicle.
Seven or thirteen pin 12 V DC
connections should be used
(CUNA/UNI and ISO/DIN Standards).
Follow any instructions provided by the
vehicle manufacturer and/or the towing
device manufacturer.
WARNING
122)The ABS with which the car is
equipped will not control the braking
system of the trailer. Particular caution is
required on slippery roads.
123)Never modify the braking system of
the vehicle to control the trailer brake. The
trailer braking system must be fully
independent of the car’s hydraulic system.
SUGGESTIONS FOR
DRIVING
SAVING FUEL
Below are some suggestions which
may help you save fuel and thus lower
the amount of harmful emissions
released into the atmosphere.
Vehicle maintenance
Checks and operations should be
carried out in accordance with the
"Scheduled Servicing Plan" (see the
"Maintenance and care" chapter).
Tyres
Check the tyre pressures at least once
every four weeks: if the pressure is too
low, consumption levels increase as
resistance to rolling is higher.
Unnecessary loads
Do not travel with an overloaded
luggage compartment. The weight of
the vehicle and its arrangement greatly
affect fuel consumption and stability.
Roof rack/ski rack
Remove the roof rack or the ski rack
from the roof when they are not used.
These accessories lower aerodynamic
penetration and adversely affect
consumption levels. When transporting
particularly large objects, use a trailer if
possible.Electric devices
Use electrical devices only for the
amount of time needed. The heated
rear window, windscreen wipers and
heater fan require a considerable
amount of energy; increasing the
current uptake increases fuel
consumption (by up to +25% in an
urban cycle).
Climate control system
Using the climate control system will
increase consumption: use standard
ventilation when the temperature
outside permits.
Devices for aerodynamic control
The use of non-certified devices for
aerodynamic control may adversely
affect air drag and consumption levels.
DRIVING STYLE
Starting
Do not warm up the engine at low or
high revs when the vehicle is stationary;
this causes the engine to warm up
more slowly, thereby increasing fuel
consumption and emissions. It is
therefore advisable to move off
immediately, slowly, avoiding high
speeds: in this way the engine will
warm up more quickly.
