When outside temperature is cold, recir-
culation is forced to off (outside air inlet)
to prevent window misting up.
In automatic operation inside air recircu-
lation will be controlled automatically by
the system according to outside environ-
mental conditions.Climate control compressor on/off
button A
Pressing button A/Cwill activate the com-
pressor and the display may show the
same wording A/Cto confirm activation.
With compressor on, pressing button
A/Cagain will deactivate the climate con-
trol compressor and therefore the word-
ing will disappear from the display.
When turning the compressor off, the sys-
tem will deactivate air recirculation to pre-
vent window misting up. If the system is
no longer able to keep the required tem-
perature, temperature 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
fastly since air is not dehumidified.
The switching off of the climate control
compressor remains in storage even when
the engine has been stopped. To restore
automatic control for switching on the cli-
mate control compressor, press again but-
ton A/Cor press button AUTO.
With climate control compressor off, the
fan speed can be set to zero manually.
With compressor on and engine running,
the fan speed cannot be lower that one
bar on the display.
It is inadvisable to use air re-
circulation on rainy/cold
days as it would considerably increase
the possibility of windows misting up
inside.

Fast window demisting/defrosting
button C
Press this button: the climate control sys-
tem will automatically switch on all the
functions required for fast windscreen and
front side window demisting/defrosting,
that is:
❒switches on climate control compressor
when climatic conditions are suitable;
❒air recirculation off;
❒maximum air temperature HIon both
areas;
❒activates proper fan speed according to
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,
since engine coolant temperature reach-
es the proper temperature.When the max. demisting/defrosting func-
tion is on, the button led and the heated
rear window button led are on.
When the max. demisting/defrosting func-
tion is on, the only manual operations pos-
sible are manual adjustment of the fan
speed and switching heated rear window
off. Pressing the max. demisting/defrost-
ing button or the air recirculation buttons
or compressor off button or the AUTO
button, the system switches off the max.
demisting/defrosting function and restores
the operating conditions of the system pri-
or to turning it on.Heated rear window and door
mirror demisting/defrosting button
(where provided) F
Press this button to activate heated rear
window demisting/defrosting.
When this function is on, the button led
is on.
This function is timed and switches off au-
tomatically after about 20 minutes or by
pressing again the button or by turning the
engine off. It will not be switched on au-
tomatically when restarting the engine.
IMPORTANT Do not apply stickers on the
inside of the rear window over the heat-
ing filaments to avoid damage that might
cause it to stop working properly.

The rain sensor (fitted on certain versions
only), is an electronic device coupled to
the windscreen wiper with the purpose of
adjusting automatically, during the inter-
mittent operation, the frequency of the
windscreen wiper strokes as to the rain
intensity.
The rain sensor will activate automatical-
ly when moving the stalk to AUTO; its
range varies gradually from windscreen
wiper off (no wipe) when the windscreen
is dry, to wiper at first continuous speed
with heavy rain.
The activation of the rain sensor is sig-
nalled by a control acquisition “stroke”. RAIN SENSOR
(where provided)
The rain sensor is located behind the dri-
ving mirror in contact with the windscreen
and has the purpose of adjusting auto-
matically, during the intermittent opera-
tion, the frequency of the windscreen
wiper strokes as to the rain intensity.
IMPORTANT Keep clean the glass in the
sensor area.

SPEED REGULATOR
(where provided)
“It is the speed desired by the driver”.
This driving aid allows, in case of smooth-
flowing traffic, to maintain the speed pro-
grammed by the driver constant, except
in the case of a very steep hill.
In order to be programmed or activated,
the speed of the vehicle must be more
than 40 km/h, in at least the 4th gear.When vehicles are equipped with both the
restrictor and the regulator (depending on
the country of commercialisation and the
engine), the two functions cannot be ac-
tivated at the same time.This regulator shows on the control lock
the state of the function selection and it
shows the programmed speed:
