WARNING
In freezing temperatures the washer solution

Operating tips
•In order to improve the heater operation, clear
the snow and ice from the wiper blade and air
inlet in front of the windscreen.
•After parking in the sun, drive for two or three
minutes with the windows open to vent hot air
from the passenger compartment. Then close
the windows to allow the acceleration of the air
conditioner’s cooling operation.
•Keep the windows closed while the air condi-
tioner is operating.
•The air conditioning system should be operated
for about 10 minutes, at least once a month. This
helps prevent damage to the system due to lack
of lubrication.
•If the coolant temperature warning light comes
on, turn the air conditioner off. For additional
information, see “Engine overheat” in the “6. In
case of emergency” section.
•If the engine coolant reaches an extremely high
temperature, the air conditioning system will au-
tomatically turn off. This may happen for example
if the engine runs at idle speed for a long time on
a hot day.
