TRIP COMPUTER
General features
The “Trip computer” is used to display in-
formation on car operation when the key
is turned to MAR. This function allows to
define two separate trips called “Trip A”
and “Trip B” for monitoring the car’s
“complete mission” in a reciprocally in-
dependent manner.
Both functions are resettable (reset - start
of new mission).
“Trip A” may be used to display the fig-
ures relating to:
– Range
– Distance travelled
– Average consumption
– Instant consumption
– Average speed
– Travel time (driving time).“Trip B”, available on multifunctional dis-
play only, shall be used to display the fig-
ures relating to:
– Trip distance B
– Average consumption B
– Average speed B
– Travel time B (driving time).
Note“Trip B” functions may be exclud-
ed (see “Trip B on”). “Range” and “In-
stantaneous consumption” cannot be re-
set.Values displayed

AUTOMATIC CLIMATE
CONTROL SYSTEM
(where provided)
GENERAL
The automatic climate control system ad-
justs the temperature, the quantity and the
distribution of the air in the
passenger
compartment. Temperature is controlled
on the basis of an
“equivalent tempera-
ture” principle; in other words, the sys-
tem continuously works to keep the com-
fort level inside the car constant and
to
compensate for possible variations of ex-
ternal conditions, including sun radiation
detected by a specific sensor.The automatically controlled parameters
and functions are:
air temperature at the vents;
air distribution at the vents;
fan speed (continuous air flow varia-
tion);
compressor fan on (for cooling/dehu-
midifying the air);
air recirculation.All functions may be manually changed.
In
order words, you may select one or more
functions and change the parameters as
required. Automatic control of the man-
ually changed functions will be suspended:
the system will change override your set-
tings only for safety related reasons (e.g.
risk of misting up).
Manual selections will always have higher
priority over automatic settings and will
be stored until the user switches the sys-
tem back to automatic control by press-
ing AUTOexpect for the cases in which
the system will int ervene for particular,
safety-related reasons.
You can adjust one function automatical-
ly and have the automatic system control
all the others.
The air temperature is always automati-
cally controlled according to the temper-
ature shown on the display (except for
when the system is off or in certain con-
ditions when the compressor is not run-
ning).

USING THE CLIMATE
CONTROL SYSTEM
The system can be started in different
ways,
but it is advisable to start by press-
ing the AUTObutton and then turning
the knobs to set the temperature required
on the display.
The system will start running automatically
in this way and the set comfortable tem-
perature will be reached as quickly as pos-
sible. The system will adjust the temper-
ature, the quantity and the distribution of
the air introduced into the passenger com-
partment and will manage the recircula-
tion function and the compressor.
Manual intervention is only required for
the following functions during fully auto-
matic operation.
air recirculation, to keep the
function always either on or off;
to speed up demisting/defrosting of
windscreen, rear window and exter-
nal rearview mirrors;During completely automatic system op-
eration, you can vary the set temperature,
the air distribution and the fan speed us-
ing the corresponding buttons or knobs
at any time: the system will automatically
change settings to adapt to the new re-
quest.
During fully automatic operation (FULL
AUTO), the word FULLwill disappear
if the air distribution, air speed,
compres-
sor and/or recirculatio n settin gs are
changed. In this way, the functions will
switch from automatic to manual control
until AUTOis pressed again. With on or
more manually set functions, the intro-
duced air temperature is still managed au-
tomatically by the system, except for when
the compressor is off: in the case,
the air
introduced into the passenger compart-
ment cannot be cooler than the outside
air.Air temperature adjustment
knob (I)
Turn the knob either clockwise or anti-
clockwise to increase or lower the re-
quested temperature in the
passenger
compartment. The set temperature is
shown on the display.
Turn the knob either all to the right
or
all to the left to the extreme HIor LO
position to use the maximum heating or
maximum cooling functions:
HI function (maximum heating):
select by turning the temperature knob
clockwise over the maximum value
(32 °C).
This function may be used to heat up the
passenger compartment exploiting the
system potential to the maximum. In this
condition, the system stop controlling
temperature automatically and sets air
mixing to maximum heating. The air speed
and distribution are fixed.
Specifically,
if the heating fluid is not suffi-
ciently warm, the fan will not start up at
the maximum speed immediately to limit
introducing excessively cool air into the
passenger compartment.
All manual settings will be allowed when
this function is on.

Fan speed adjusting buttons (H)
Press button Hto increase or to decrease
the fan speed and therefore the amount
of air admitted into the passenger com-
partment,
although keeping the required
temperature set.
The fan speed is shown by the lit bars on
the display:
max fan speed = all bars lit;
min fan speed = one bar lit.
The fan can be cut off only if the climate
control compressor has been
switched
off pressing button F-fig. 34.
IMPORTANT To restore automatic fan
speed control after a manual adjustment,
press button AUTO.
IMPORTANT At high speeds, the dynamic
effect may increase the flow of air into the
passenger compartment which in this case
will not directly correspond to the fan
speed bar display.AUTO (A) (automatic operation)
Press AUTO to make the system auto-
matically adjust the quantity and distribu-
tion of the air introduced into the pas-
senger compartment. All previous manu-
al settings will be cancelled.
The message FULL AUTOwill appear
on the front display in this condition.
By manually intervening on at least of the
functions automatically managed by the
system (air recirculatio n, fan speed or
compressor on/off), the word FULL will
disappear from the display indicating that
the system is no longer automatically con-
trolling all the functions (the temperature
will still be controlled automatically by the
system).
IMPORTANT Sho uld the system (aft er
manual setting s) be no lon ger able to
guarantee the required temperature set
in the passen ger compartment, the set
temperature value will start flashing to in-
dicate this condition, after one minute the
AUTOmessage will turn off.
To restore system automatic control at
any time, after one or more manual ad-
justments, press button AUTO.Air recirculation on/off button (G)
Air recirculation works according to the
following operating logics:
override on (inside air recirculation
always on),
indicated by the the LED
on button Gand symbol on
the display;
override off (air recirculation always
off and introduction of external air),
indicated by the fact that the LED on
the button is off is on the display.
These operating conditions are obtained
by pressing Gin sequence.
IMPORTANT The inside air recircula-
tion system makes it possible to reach
the required heating or cooling condi-
tions faster.
It is however inadvisable to use it on
rainy/cold days as it would considerably
increase the possibility of the windows
misting inside, especially if the climate
control compressor is off.
Recirculation is forced off
(i.e. air is
introduced from the outside) when the
the outside temperature is cold to pre-
vent misting up.
It is advisable not to use the air recircu-
lation function when the outside tem-
perature is low to prevent the windows
from rapidly misting up.
