Automatic Climate Control System - Fiat 500 Owner's Handbook Manual

AUTOMATIC CLIMATE
CONTROL SYSTEM
(where provided)
According to the temperature set by the
user, the automatic climate control sys-
tem automatically adjusts:
❒ the temperature of the air sent to the
passenger compartment;
❒ fan speed (continuous air flow varia-
tion);
❒ the distribution of air inside the pas-
senger compartment;
❒ compressor activation/deactivation (to
cool/dehumidify air);
❒ air recycle activation/deactivation;
All functions can be manually changed. In
other words, you may operate the system
selecting one or more functions. The man-
ual setting of a function does not impair
the automatic control of the other func-
tions even if the led of the knob AUTO
is off.
