▼Air flow distributed between the
foot well vents (hotter air) and the
central and side dashboard vents
(cooler air). This distribution
mode is particularly useful in
spring and autumn on a sunny
day.
▲
▼Air flow distributed between foot
well vents and windscreen and
front side window
defrosting/demisting vents. This
distribution mode enables proper
heating of the passenger compart-
ment, thus preventing possible
window misting. The function is enabled when the pas-
senger compartment needs to be
cooled as quickly as possible, thus us-
ing the system operating capacity at
best. This function enables air recir-
culation and engages the climate con-
trol system compressor; air distribu-
tion and fan speed are managed by
the system based on ambient condi-
tions. All manual settings will be al-
lowed when this function is on.
To switch the function off, simply turn
the temperature knob clockwise and
set the required temperature.Air distribution
buttons I-M
Pressing these but-
tons it is possible to
manually set one of
the five possible air
distribution modes to
the passenger com-
partment (right or
left side):
▲air flow to the windscreen and
front side window vents to demist
or defrost them;
˙air flow at central and side dash-
board vents to ventilate the chest
and the face during the hot season;
▼air flow to the front and rear foot
well vents. Thanks to the natural
upwards movement of heat, this
type of distribution is the quickest
for heating the passenger com-
partment offering the passenger(s)
a prompt feeling of heated air.

button is pressed for a function that
is active, the operation is cancelled
and the corresponding LED goes off.
To restore automatic air distribution
control after a manual selection, press

When the driver selects air distribu-

Air recirculation
on/off button C
Air recirculation is
managed according to
the following operat-
ing logics:
❒override on (air recirculation al-
ways on), indicated by the active
LED on button Cand symbol
íon the display;
❒override off (air recirculation al-
ways off and introduction of ex-
ternal air), indicated by the inac-
tive LED on the button and the
symbol
êon the display.
These operating conditions are ob-
tained by pressing the air recircula-
tion button Cin sequence.
For safety reasons, the system auto-
matically disengages air recirculation
after a pre-set time, thus letting fresh
air in. Button MONO A (to
align set
temperatures and air
distribution)
Press button MONO
to automatically align the air temper-
ature and distribution in the front
passenger’s area and that on the dri-
ver’s side. This means that the same
temperature can be set in the two ar-
eas by turning the knob on the dri-
ver’s side. This function makes tem-
perature regulation easier inside the
passenger compartment when the dri-
ver is the only passenger. For separate
management of temperatures and air
distribution in the two different areas
of the passenger compartment, turn
knobHor press button MONO A
again when the LED on the button is
on. IMPORTANT If the system can no
longer guarantee achievement or
preservation of the required temper-
ature in the different areas of the pas-
senger compartment due to manual
adjustments of the functions, the set
temperature value flashes, thus indi-
cating a system fault. One minute
later the message AUTOgoes off.
To restore system automatic control at
any time, after one or more manual
selections, press button AUTO.

IMPORTANT Air recirculation ON
enables faster achievement of the de-
sired conditions (for passenger com-
partment heating or cooling). It is
however inadvisable to use it on
rainy/cold days as it would consider-
ably increase the possibility of the
windows misting inside, especially if
the climate control compressor is off.
Recirculation is forced to off (i.e. air
is introduced from the outside) when
the outside temperature is inferior to
5-7°C to prevent misting up.Climate control

Press button
√when
the LED on it goes on.
The LED goes off when the climate
control compressor is switched off.
Press the button when the LED is off
to automatically restore system con-
trol and use of the compressor. Suc-
cessful completion of this operation is
highlighted by the button LED
switching on.
The system will switch recirculation
off when the compressor is switched
to off to prevent windows from mist-
ing up. Although the system is capa-
ble of maintaining the required tem-
perature, the word FULLwill disap-
pear from the display. If on the other
hand the system cannot maintain the
required temperature, the digits will
blink and the word AUTOwill disap-
pear.
IMPORTANT With the compressor
off, it is not possible to introduced air
cooler than ambient temperature into
the passenger compartment. Further-
more, in certain conditions, the win-
dows could mist up rapidly because
the air is not dehumidified.
It is advisable not to use the
air recirculation function
when the outside temperature is low
to prevent the windows from rapidly
misting up.

climate control system
will automatically switch on all the
functions required for fast windscreen
and front side window demisting/de-
frosting, that is:
❒switches on the climate control
compressor when weather condi-
tions are suitable;
❒disables air recirculation;
❒sets the maximum air temperature
HIin both areas;
❒sets proper fan speed according to
engine coolant temperature to
limit the flow of not sufficiently
warm air to demist the windows
into the passenger compartment;
❒directs the air flow to the wind-
screen and front side windows
vents;
❒engages the rear window mister.Disengagement of the compressor re-
mains stored even after the engine
stops.
To restore automatic compressor con-
trol, press button
√again (in this
case, the system will only work as a
heater) or press AUTO.
With climate control compressor off if
the outside temperature is higher than
the one set, the system will not be able
to keep the required condition, the
temperature value will then start
flashing on the display for a few sec-
onds and the message AUTOgoes off.
With climate control compressor off,
the fan speed can be set to zero man-
ually (no bar shown).
With the compressor enabled and the
engine started, the fan speed may be
reduced to the minimum setting only
(one bar shown).
