Your 500e also uses an electric air heater to provide heat
to the cabin.
Electric Air Conditioning Compressor
Your 500e uses an electric air conditioning compressor.
The air conditioning compressor is powered by the high
voltage battery system and is used to cool the vehicle
occupants and the high voltage battery while the vehicle
is being driven or when it is being charged.
The high voltage battery may require cooling to keep the
vehicle running. The air conditioning compressor will
activate without any input from the occupant.
NOTE: The AC system helps cool the high voltage
battery. If the air conditioning system should require
service see your authorized studio as soon as possible.

Your vehicle is equipped with an Electric Power Steering
(EPS) system. The power steering system requires no
maintenance and operates without the use of power
steering fluid.
Smartphone Features
With the “FIAT Access” smartphone app, you can moni-
tor the state of charge of the high voltage battery or
initiate charging from your phone. You can also turn on
your car’s climate control system remotely. The smart-
phone app provides the following features:
• Monitor battery charge level
• Display available driving distance
• Check charging status
• Remotely activate vehicle climate control system
