keep the required temperature, temper-
ature value will flash and the wording
AUTOwill disappear from the display.
IMPORTANT With the climate control
compressor off, it is not possible to admit
air to the passenger compartment with a
temperature below the outside tempera-
ture; moreover, under certain environ-
mental conditions, windows could mist up

engine coolant temperature to limit the
flow into the passenger compartment of
air not warm enough to demist the win-
dows;
❒ directs air flow to windscreen and front
side windows vents;
❒turns heated rear window on.IMPORTANT Fast demisting/defrosting
function stays on for about 3 minutes,
