During automatic operation, you can change the set temperatures, air
distribution and fan speed at any time by using the relevant buttons
or knobs: the system will automatically change the settings to adjust to
the new requirements.
During fully automatic operation (AUTO), the word AUTO will
disappear if the air distribution and/or flow rate and/or engagement
of the compressor and/or recirculation settings are changed.
During fully automatic operation (FULL AUTO), the word FULL will
disappear if the air distribution and/or flow rate and/or activation of
the compressor and/or recirculation settings are changed.
In this way the climate control system will continue to automatically
manage all functions except for those that have been manually
adjusted. The fan speed is the same in all the zones of the passenger
compartment.ADJUSTING THE AIR TEMPERATURETurn the A or L knob right or left to adjust the air temperature: A knob
for the front left-hand area, L knob for the front right-hand area of
the passenger compartment. The set temperatures are shown on
the displays.
Press the MONO button to align the air temperature between the two
areas:
Turn the L knob to return to the separate management of air
temperatures in the two zones.
Turn the knobs fully right or left to engage HI (maximum heating) or LO
(maximum cooling) respectively. To deactivate these functions, turn
the temperature knob to the desired temperature.
SETTING THE AIR DISTRIBUTIONBy pressing the buttons (
/
/
), it is possible to set one of the
7 possible air distributions manually:
Air flow to the windscreen and front side window diffusers to
demist/defrost them.Air flow at central and side dashboard vents to ventilate the chest
and the face during the hot season.Air flow to the front and rear footwell diffusers. This air
distribution setting heats the passenger compartment most
quickly, giving a prompt sensation of warmth.
Air flow distributed between footwell vents (hotter air) and
central and side dashboard vents (cooler air). This
distribution setting is useful in spring and autumn on sunny
days.Air flow distributed between footwell diffusers and
windscreen and front side window defrosting/demisting
diffusers. This distribution setting allows the passenger
compartment to warm up efficiently and prevents the
windows from misting up.Air flow distribution between windscreen demisting/
defrosting diffusers and side and central dashboard vents.
This allows air to be sent to the windscreen in conditions
of strong sunlight.
Air flow distribution to all vents on the car.
In AUTO mode, the climate control system automatically manages air
distribution (the LEDs on buttons H are off). When set manually, the air
distribution is shown by the LEDs on the selected buttons.

AIR RECIRCULATION AND
ENABLEMENT OF AQS FUNCTION
(Air Quality System)The air recirculation is managed according to the following operating
logics:
❒automatic activation: text A on button B lit;
❒forced activation (inside air recirculation always on): indicated by
the LED on the button
A and text A off;
❒forced deactivation (air recirculation always off, air drawn in from
the outside): indicated by the LED on the
buttons A switching
off and text A on button B off.
Forced activation/deactivation can be selected by pressing the
button A.
When the
button is pressed (button E off), the climate control system
automatically activates internal air recirculation (LED on the
button A on). It is still possible to activate outside air
recirculation (LED on the button off) and vice versa, by pressing the
button
A.
The AQS (Air Quality System) function cannot be activated when the
button is pressed (LED on button E off).
AQS (Air Quality System) function activation
The AQS function automatically activates internal air recirculation
when the outside air is polluted (e.g. in traffic queues and tunnels).
IMPORTANT With the AQS function active, after a preset time interval
of the internal air recirculation system functioning, the climate control
system enables the intake of outside air for approximately one minute
to change the air in the passenger compartment. This takes place
regardless of the pollution level of the outside air.IMPORTANT The engagement of the recirculation system makes it
possible to reach the required heating/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 up inside
(especially if the climate control system is off). When the outside
temperature is low, recirculation is forced off (air drawn in from the
outside) to prevent the windows from misting up.
In automatic operation, recirculation is managed automatically by the
system according to outside environmental conditions.
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 COMPRESSORPress button C to activate/deactivate the compressor (activation is
indicated by the lit LED on the button). The system remembers that the
compressor has been switched off, even after the engine has stopped.
When the compressor is switched off the system deactivates air
recirculation to prevent the windows from misting up and deactivates
the AQS function. In this case, although the system is capable of
maintaining the required temperature, the AUTO LED switches off.
The temperatures will instead flash for a few seconds if the required
temperature cannot be maintained.
To restore automatic control of compressor engagement, press button C
again or press the AUTO button.

❒if the outside temperature is higher than the set one, the system will
not be able to satisfy the request. The temperature values will then
flash on the display for a few seconds to indicate this;
❒the fan speed can be reset manually.
With the compressor on and the engine running, manual ventilation
cannot be lower than the minimum speed (only one LED lit).
IMPORTANT With the climate control compressor off, air cannot be
introduced to the passenger compartment with a temperature lower
than the outside temperature; moreover, under certain environmental
conditions, windows could mist rapidly since the air is not
dehumidified.RAPID WINDOW DEMISTING/
DEFROSTING (MAX-DEF function)Press the
button to activate (LED on button on) the windscreen and
side window demisting/defrosting function. The climate control system
carries out the following operations:
❒switches on the air conditioning compressor when climatic
conditions are suitable;
❒deactivates air recirculation;
❒sets maximum air temperature (HI) in both zones;
❒sets fan speed according to the engine coolant temperature;
❒directs air flow to windscreen and front side windows diffusers;
❒activates the heated rear window.
❒displays the fan speed (LED G lit).
IMPORTANT The MAX-DEF function remains on for about 3 minutes
from when the engine coolant reaches the appropriate temperature.When the function is activated, the LED on the AUTO button switches
off. With the function activated the only possible manual adjustments
are adjusting the fan speed and turning the heated rear window off.
When the B, C,
or AUTO buttons are pressed, the climate control
system will turn the MAX-DEF off.
HEATED REAR WINDOW
DEMISTING/DEFROSTINGPress the
button to activate (LED on button on) heated rear window
demisting/defrosting. This function switches off automatically after
about 20 minutes or when the engine is turned off. It is not switched on
automatically the next time the engine is started.
For versions/markets where provided, press the
button to activate
demisting/defrosting of exterior rear view mirrors and heated nozzles
(for versions/markets, where provided).
IMPORTANT Do not affix stickers to the inside of the heated rear
window over the heating filaments, to avoid damage that might cause
them to stop working properly.
Thermal comfort windscreen
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Some versions feature a thermal comfort windscreen which, with the
car exposed to the sun, reduces the temperature in the passenger
compartment relative to the outside temperature, thus ensuring greater
comfort.
Humidity sensor
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The humidity sensor helps to prevent the windows from misting up. For
full functionality, it is advisable to activate the AUTO function (LED N
on).
