GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR
The GSI (Gear Shift Indicator) system advises the
driver to change gear through a specific indication on
the instrument panel fig. 9.
Through the GSI, the driver is notified that changing
gear will allow a reduction in fuel consumption.
When the SHIFT UP icon (
SHIFT) is shown on the
display, the GSI is advising the driver to engage a
higher gear, while the SHIFT DOWN (
SHIFT) icon
advises the driver to engage a lower gear.
The indication on the instrument panel remains on
until the driver changes gear or the driving
conditions return to a situation where changing gear
is not required to reduce consumption.CONTROL BUTTONS

DESCRIPTION
The automatic dual zone climate control system
regulates the air temperatures in the passenger
compartment in two zones: driver side and
passenger side.
The system maintains comfort inside the passenger
compartment and compensates for possible
variations in external climate conditions.The climate control system can recognise extremely
cold (or extremely hot) conditions in the passenger
compartment and consequently provide optimal
management of the system’s capabilities.
NoteThe reference temperature is 22°C for
optimal comfort management.
The automatically controlled parameters and
functions are:
❒air temperature at the driver/front passenger side
vents;
❒air distribution at the driver/front passenger side
vents;
❒fan speed (continuous variation of the air flow);
❒compressor engagement (for cooling/dehumidifying
the air);
❒air recirculation.
All these functions can be adjusted manually by
operating the system, selecting one or more
functions and modifying their parameters.
Automatic control of the functions will be
suspended: the system will only override the settings
for safety reasons.
Manual selections always take priority over automatic
ones and are stored until the AUTO button is
pressed or the system itself intervenes for specific
safety reasons.

The amount of air introduced into the passenger
compartment is not affected by car speed; it is
regulated by the fan, which is controlled
electronically.
The air temperature is always automatically
controlled according to the temperature set on the
display (except for when the system is off or in
certain conditions when the compressor is
not running).
The system allows the following to be set or adjusted
manually:
❒driver/passenger side air temperature;
❒fan speed (continuous variation);
❒air distribution to 7 positions;
❒compressor enablement;
❒rapid defrosting/demisting function;
❒air recirculation;
❒heated rear window;
❒system deactivation.
The climate control system detects the
passenger compartment temperature
using a mean radiant temperature sensor
located in the interior rear view mirror and
protected by a specific cover. Obstructing the
field of view of this sensor with any object could
cause the climate control system to operate
with less than optimal efficiency.SWITCHING ON THE CLIMATE
CONTROL SYSTEM
The climate control system can be switched on in
different ways: it is advisable to press the AUTO
button and turn the knobs to set the desired
temperatures.
In this way the system operates completely
automatically to adjust the temperature, quantity and
distribution of the air introduced into the passenger
compartment. It also manages the air recirculation
function and the activation of the air conditioning
compressor.
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 completely automatic operation (AUTO),
varying the air flow and/or distribution (which are
not displayed) causes the AUTO function LED
to disappear and the system to operate in MANUAL
mode (displaying both the flow and distribution
requested).
When the compressor is deactivated, the AUTO
operation remains active only if the system can
guarantee in-car comfort. Otherwise, the system
switches to MANUAL mode (the set temperatures
will flash on the display). The fan speed is the same in
all the zones of the passenger compartment.
