Fiat 500 X 2016, Owner'S Manual

Description
The Automatic Dual Zone Climate Control system regu-
lates the air temperatures in the passenger compartment
in two zones: driver side and passenger side.
The system maintains comfort inside the passenger com-
partment and compensates for possible variations in
external climate conditions.
The Climate Control system can recognize extremely cold
(or extremely hot) conditions in the passenger compart-
ment and provide optimal management of the system’s
capabilities.
NOTE: The reference temperature is 72° F (22° C) for
optimal comfort management.
The automatically controlled functions are:
•
Air temperature at the driver/front passenger side
vents.
•
Blower speed (continuous variation of the air flow).
•
Compressor engagement (for cooling/dehumidifying
the air).
•
Air recirculation.
All these functions can be adjusted manually by operat-
ing the system, selecting one or more functions and
modifying their parameters.
Automatic control of the functions will be suspended: the
system will only override the settings for safety reasons.
Manual selections always take priority over automatic
ones and are stored until the AUTO button is pushed or
the system itself intervenes for specific safety reasons.
The amount of air introduced into the passenger com-
partment is not affected by car speed; it is regulated by
the fan, which is controlled electronically.
