AUTO button
(automatic operation on/off)
Pressing button AUTOthe system auto-
matically adjusts the amount and distribu-
tion of the air admitted to the passenger
compartment, cancelling all the previous
manual adjustments. Manual operation of
at least one automatic function (air recir-
culation, air distribution, fan speed or cli-
mate control compressor off).
IMPORTANT Should the system (after
manual settings) be no longer able to guar-
antee the required temperature set in the
passenger compartment, the set tempera-
ture value will start flashing to indicate this
condition, after one minute the AUTO
message will turn off.To restore system automatic control at
any time, after one or more manual ad-
justments, press button AUTO.
Pressing again button AUTOautomati-
cally aligns the temperature on the pas-
senger side with that on the driver side,
it is therefore possible to set the same
temperature and air distribution between
the two zones by turning the knob on dri-
ver side. This function is provided to sim-
plify temperature adjustment of the whole
passenger compartment when only the
driver is onboard. Separate operation of
set temperature and air distribution is re-
stored by pressing the button AUTO
again.Air recirculation on/off button E
Air recirculation works according to the
following operating logics:
❒automatic switching on, by pressing one
of the AUTObuttons and indicated by
the turning on of the AUTOicon on the
display.
❒manual switching on, by pressing but-
ton E, indicated by symbol
Ωon the
display;
❒manual switching off, by pressing but-
ton E, indicated by the turning off of
symbol
Ωon the display.
IMPORTANT The inside air recirculation
system makes it possible to reach the re-
quired heating or cooling conditions 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 con-
trol system is off.

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.

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
