AUTOMATIC TWO-ZONE
CLIMATE CONTROL
SYSTEM
(for versions/markets, where provided)
DESCRIPTION
The vehicle is fitted with a two-zone cli-
mate control system which makes it pos-
sible to separately adjust the air temper-
atures and air distribution on the driver’s
side and on the passenger’s side.
Temperature control is based on the
“equivalent temperature” logic, i.e.: the
system continuously works to keep con-
stant the comfort inside the passenger
compartment and to compensate any vari-
ation of the outside climate conditions, in-
cluding sunshine detected by a proper sen-
sor provided for the purpose.
The climate control system automatically
controls and adjusts the following para-
meters and functions:
❒air temperature at driver/front passen-
ger vents;
❒air distribution at driver/front passen-
ger vents;
❒fan speed (continuous air flow variation);
❒compressor activation (to cool/ dehu-
midify air);
❒air recirculation.All the above functions can be changed
manually by selecting the required func-
tion/s and by changing the set parameters.
In this way the automatic control is de-
activated; the system will resume auto-
matic control only for safety reasons.
Manual selections prevail over automatic
ones and remain in storage until the user
decides to resume automatic control
(press button AUTO, except when the
system cuts in for particular safety condi-
tions. The control of functions not
changed manually remains automatic.
The amount of air admitted to the pas-
senger compartment does not depend on
the vehicle speed, since it is electronical-
ly controlled by the fan. The temperature
of the air admitted to the passenger com-
partment is always controlled automati-
cally according to the temperatures set on
the driver’s and front passenger’s display
(except when the system is off or under
certain conditions when the compressor
is off).The following parameters and functions
can be set or changed manually:
❒ air temperatures on driver/front pas-
senger side;
❒ fan speed (continuous variation);
❒air distribution on seven levels (dri-
ver/front passenger side);
❒ climate control compressor on/off en-
able;
❒monozone/two-zone distribution prior-
ity;
❒ fast demisting/defrosting;
❒ air recirculation;
❒ rear heated window;
❒system deactivation.

The system can be started in different
ways, but it is advisable to press one of the
AUTObuttons and then to turn the
knobs to set the temperatures required
on the display.
It is possible to personalise required tem-
peratures (driver and passenger) with a
maximum difference of 7 °C.
This way the system will start working
completely automatically to reach the
comfort temperatures as quickly as pos-
sible. The system will set air temperature,
quantity and distribution and it will con-
trol the air recirculation function and the
activation of conditioner compressor.

¡Splitting of the air flow between the
vents to the lower part of the pas-
senger compartment (warmest air)
and the dashboard centre and side
outlets (coolest air). This air flow dis-
tribution is particularly useful in
spring and autumn when the sun is
shining.
¬Splitting of the air flow between
windscreen and front side window
demisting/defrosting vents and the
lower part of the passenger com-
partment. This type of air distribution
allows satisfactory heating of the pas-
senger compartment while prevent-
ing possible misting of the windows.The type of air distribution, when select-
ed by hand, is shown by lighting up of the
relevant led on the selected button.
In the combined function, pressing a but-
ton will activate the relevant function
whereas, pressing a button relevant to an
already operating function will turn off this
function and the relevant button led.
To restore automatic air distribution con-
trol after a manual selection, press button
AUTO.
When the driver selects air distribution to
the windscreen, also the air distribution
on passenger side will be distributed to the
windscreen. The passenger can however
select the required air distribution by
pressing the relevant buttons.Fan speed adjusting buttons G - H
Press button Gpto decrease the fan
speed and therefore the amount of air ad-
mitted into the passenger compartment.
Press button Hpto increase the fan
speed and therefore the amount of air ad-
mitted into the passenger compartment,
although keeping the required tempera-
ture set.
The fan speed is shown by the lit bars of
the fan symbol pon 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 A.
IMPORTANT To restore automatic fan
speed control after a manual adjustment,
press button AUTO.

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.

Operating the windscreen washer with
the rain sensor activated the normal wash-
ing cycle is performed at the end of which
the rain sensor resumes its normal auto-
matic function.
So as to deactivate the rain sensor, put the
windscreen wiper command in the I, 1or
2positions. The deactivation is accompa-
nied by a message on the display.
To activate the rain sensor you have to
move the stalk to another position and
then back to AUTO.The rain sensor is able to recognize and
automatically adjust itself in the presence
of the following particular conditions:
❒impurities on the controlled surface
(salt, dirt, etc...);
❒streaks of water produced by worn
wiper blades;
❒difference between day and night (hu-
man eye is more bothered by wet glass
at night).Pulling the stalk towards the steering
wheel (unstable position), regardless of
the position of the knurled ring, operates
the windscreen washer and if the dipped
or high beams are on, also the headlight
washer (for versions/markets, where pro-
vided).
Windscreen wiper will then perform three
wiping strokes.
Do not activate the rain sen-
sor when washing the vehi-
cle at automatic car-wash stations.
WARNING
When cleaning or washing
the windscreen make sure the
rain sensor is off.
WARNING
