Fiat Ducato Switches

[clonkel]

Hi, I have looked in the manual but cannot find what these 3 switches do. I have an idea but not 100% sure.

thank you

First pic, top one with the snowflake turns your air conditioning on/off. Bottom one with the box and three wavy lines looks like it turns on the heating elements for a rear window.

Second pic, no idea exactly what ECO mode does but it will be something along the lines of limiting acceleration or possibly enabling the auto start/stop at lights etc.

On mine, the button in that position brings up a sub menu but I can't really even remember what's on it. Don't think mine is an ECO button though. I'm going to have to go and check now...

Top - Air con switch
Middle - Heated mirrors
Bottom pic - Mode button for dash computer

edit- didnt zoom in on the bottom pic. Dont know that one.

fishplug Sue and Rick thank you. The heated mirror makes sense as the rear is a plastic window. I always understood that only Fords have a heated windscreen due to patents (not sure if this is true but seems to be).

I will look up the aircon but as we are -3 at the moment there is no rush.

The eco button is an odd one

thanks again

The ECO button runs engine in economy mode, seems to reduce power slightly but does improve mpg.

Patent's expired so no longer a Ford exclusive. New Ducato's have it as an option as well, for example. The button icon is different though, not a box with waves, but a "pie", sort of.

Air con is also for winter. Set your heater controls at 22 or between the red & blue and put the fan on. This will keep your widows from misting up and keep it at an ambient temperature.

Yes, that's what mine is! Thanks, saves me going out to check!

@all thank you for the advice and help.

mikash it is a 74 plate ducato but there is no heated windscreen. As was suggested it looks as if its heated mirrors.

If it is any help , the owners manual for the series 8 Ducato that can be found in the Manuals for Motorhome stuff section of resources has all of these switches shown in it along with their functions.
