GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR
Courtesy light timing
On certain versions, to facilitate getting
in/out of the vehicle at night or in
poorly-lit areas, two timed modes have
been provided.
❒when getting into the vehicle;
❒when getting out of the vehicle.

E - air distribution knob:
air from central outlets and side vents
air from central outlets, side vents and front and rear footwell vents
air outlet from the front and rear footwell vents and a light air flow also from the side vents on the dashboard
air outlet from the front and rear footwell vents, to the windscreen, the side windows and a light air flow also at the side
vents on the dashboard
air outlet to the windscreen, the side windows and a light air flow also at the side vents on the dashboard
4 further intermediate positions are also possible in the 5 main distributions described above.
F - heated rear window on/off button and, where provided, door mirror electric heating;
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.
IMPORTANT Internal air recirculation makes it possible to reach the required heating or cooling conditions more quickly
depending on the mode selected. Do not use the internal air recirculation function on rainy/cold days as it would considerably
increase the possibility of the windows misting.
Additional heater(where provided)
The additional heater ensures more
rapid passenger compartment heating.
It activates in cold weather conditions,
if the following conditions are verified:
❒outside temperature low;
❒engine coolant temperature low;
❒engine on;
❒fan speed set at least to 1st speed;
❒knob C turned completely clockwise
to red section.
The heater is switched off when at least
one of the conditions above is no
longer verified.NoteThe power of the electric heater is
modulated according to the battery
voltage.
WARNING
2)The system uses R1234YF coolant,
which does not pollute the environment in
the event of accidental leakage. Under
no circumstances use R134a and R12
fluids, which are incompatible with the
components of the system.

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 diffusers (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 be warmed 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 diffusers on the vehicle.
I - heated rear window on/off button; (where this function is provided, pressing the button also activates demisting/defrosting of
the door mirrors);
L - passenger side temperature adjustment knob;
M - SYNC function activation button (alignment of set temperatures) driver/passenger side;
N - AUTO function activation button (automatic operation).
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.
In combined function mode the relevant
function is enabled simultaneously
with those already set by pressing the
corresponding button. If a button
whose function is already active is
pressed, its operation is cancelled and
the corresponding LED switches off.
To restore automatic control of the
air distribution after a manual selection,
press the AUTO button.NOTES
The automatic climate control manages
the Stop/Start system (engine off and
vehicle at a standstill) in order to
guarantee sufficient comfort inside the
vehicle. In particularly severe climate
conditions it is recommended to limit
the use of the Stop/Start system to
prevent the compressor from
continuously switching on and off, with
consequent rapid misting of the
windows and accumulation of humidity
with unpleasant smells in the passenger
compartment.When the Stop/Start system is on
(engine off and vehicle at a standstill),
the automatic recirculation
management is turned off always taking
air in from outside, to reduce the
probability of the windows misting up
(as the compressor is off).

MySky SUN ROOF
12)
The roof has two panels, a front and a
rear one, that can be individually or
simultaneously removed, as wished.
Front and rear panels are distinguished
by a dedicated symbol on the bottom
of the panels themselves.
IMPORTANT The panels can withstand
any snow that may deposit on them.
In any case, it is advisable to remove
excessive snow.
FRONT PANEL ELECTRIC
MOVEMENT
On some versions, the front panel
might be electrically operated. This
operates only with the ignition device at
MAR. The panel can be adjusted
forward/backward and opened in swivel
position.
The buttons to operate the front panel
are located on the trim close to the
front roof light fig. 35:
❒Button A: opening/closing button
until the end of stroke of the front panel.
Pressing the button on the front glass
panel will completely open it. From
the position of complete opening pull
the button: the front panel will
completely close.❒Button B: opening button for swivel
position of the front panel. To bring
the roof into swivel position, press and
release the button. This opening mode
can be activated with fully closed roof
only. With open panel, or with partially
open panel, the button B will be
deactivated. During the swivel opening,
any pressure on the button stops the
roof closing.
Anti-pinch device
The front panel has an anti-pinch safety
system capable of detecting the
presence of an obstacle whilst the
panel is being opened and closed.
When this happens, the system stops
and the movement of the panel is
immediately reversed.
PANEL REMOVAL
IMPORTANT Remove the panels only
when the vehicle is at a standstill.
The rear panel can be removed only
when the front panel is fully closed
or removed.
Proceed as follows to remove the
panels:
❒working inside the passenger
compartment, fit the spanner A fig. 36
inside the housing B fig. 37, rotate it
and continue rotating it next to the
symbol, so that the door lock is
released; at the same time, fully pull the
handle C (on the same panel) to the
end of travel;
❒remove the panel (front or rear), or
both;
❒place the panel (or both panels)
inside the dedicated suitcase (see the
following pages) and arrange it in the
luggage compartment.
