With the key turned to MAR-ON, press the
buttons shown in the figure to switch the function
on/off.
When the function is enabled, the LED on the
button turns on.
HEAD RESTRAINTSFRONT
These are height-adjustable and lock into place
automatically.
❒Upward adjustment: lift the head restraint until it
clicks into place.
❒Downward adjustment: press button A fig. 32
and lower the head restraint.
On some versions the front head restraints are
equipped with an “Anti-Whiplash” device, which
reduces the distance between head and head
restraint in the event of a rear shunt, thus
mitigating the “whiplash” effect.
The “Anti-Whiplash” type front head restraints may
move when the backrest is pressed by the
occupant's torso or hand. This behaviour is caused
by the system and should not be considered a
malfunction.
WARNING
Head restraints must be adjusted so
that the head, rather than the neck,
rests on them. Only when they are adjusted in
this manner can they serve their intended
purpose.

DESCRIPTION
The car is equipped with a dual zone climate
control system which allows you to adjust the air
temperature on the driver's and the passenger's
side separately.
The system has an AQS function (Air Quality
System), which automatically activates internal air
recirculation when the outside air is polluted
(e.g. in traffic queues and tunnels).

SYSTEM
The system can be activated by pressing any of the
buttons; it is, however, advisable to set the desired
temperatures on the
display, then press the AUTO button.
The climate control system allows you to customise
the temperatures requested (driver side and
passenger side) with a maximum difference of 7°C.
The climate control system compressor works
only with the engine running and an outside
temperature of above 4°C.
AUTOMATIC OPERATION OF THE
CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM (AUTO
function)
Press the AUTO button; the system will
automatically adjust:
❒the amount of air introduced into the passenger
compartment;
❒the distribution of the air in the passenger
compartment;

With the climate control system compressor
switched off, air cannot be introduced into the
passenger compartment that has a lower
temperature than the outside air; in this case the
symbol in the display will flash.The deactivation of the climate control system
compressor is memorised even after the engine has
stopped. To reactivate the climate control system
compressor, press the
or AUTO button again:
if you press AUTO, the other manual settings
will be cancelled.
IMPORTANT In order to preserve the battery
charge, the electronic climate control management
permits a higher ventilation speed than minimum
only if the engine is running at a speed greater than
750 rpm. When the speed drops below this
threshold – possible when setting off, for example –
the ventilation speed is automatically reduced to
minimum.
AIR DISTRIBUTION SELECTION
Press one or more of these buttons
/
/
to
manually select one of the seven possible air
distribution settings for the passenger
compartment:
Air flow to the windscreen and front side
window diffusers to demist/defrost them.Air flow to the front and rear footwell
diffusers. This air distribution allows the
passenger compartment to be warmed up
quickly.

ELECTRIC WINDOWSThey are fitted with a security system that can
detect the presence of an obstacle whilst the
window is closing; when this happens, the system
kicks in and the movement of the glass is
immediately reversed.
IMPORTANT In the event that the anti-crushing
function is activated 5 times in only 1 minute, the
system will automatically enter the “recovery”
mode (self-protection). This condition is apparent
from the window closing in stages.
If this occurs, restore the system as follows:
❒open the windows;
or
❒turn the ignition key to the STOP position and
then to MAR-ON.
If no malfunction is present, the window returns to
its normal operation automatically.
IMPORTANT With the ignition key at STOP or
removed, the electric windows remain activated for
about two minutes and are deactivated as soon as
a door is opened.
WARNING
The system conforms to the 2000/4/EC
standard concerning the safety of
passengers leaning out of the passenger
compartment .
IMPORTANT On some versions, when the
button on the key with remote control is pressed
for longer than 2 seconds the windows will open,
whilst if the
button is pressed for longer than
2 seconds the windows will close.
