When you enter the vehicle, the
temperature inside the vehicle
may be much colder (or warmer)
than is comfortable. There is no
point in modifying the displayed
temperature to try to attain the
desired level of comfort. The
system operates automatically
to correct this temperature differ-
ence as rapidly as possible.
When starting the engine from
cold, in order to avoid distributing
too much cold air, the blower will
attain its optimum level gradually.

Push the lever to change to the
normal "day" position. By means of a sensor, which mea-
sures the light from the rear of the

darkens the mirror glass: this reduc-
es any driver discomfort caused by
the light beam of following vehicles,
the sun...
In order to guarantee optimum vis-
ibility during your manoeuvres, the
mirror lightens automatically when
reverse gear is engaged.
