In AUTO mode, the climate control system automatically
manages air distribution (the LEDs on the Mode Control
buttons are off ).
When set manually, the air distribution is indicated by
the LEDs on the selected buttons switching on.
In combined function mode, functions are enabled to-
gether with those already set when the relevant button is
pushed. If a button whose function is already active is
pushed, the operation is cancelled and the corresponding
LED switches off.
To restore automatic control of the air distribution after a
manual selection, push the AUTO button.

When the AUTO button is pushed (LED on button lit) the
climate control system automatically adjusts the follow-
ing settings in the corresponding zones:
•quantity and distribution of the air introduced into the
passenger compartment
•climate control system compressor and
•air recirculation.
Cancelling all previous manual adjustments.
This is indicated by the LED on the AUTO button
switching on.
If the AUTO button is pushed when the AUTO LED is on,
the system switches to completely manual mode; it
displays the current flow and distribution status, which
will no longer be managed automatically.

NOTE:With the 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.

on) the windshield and side window demisting function.
The climate control system carries out the following
operations:
•switches on the air conditioning compressor when

•switches air recirculation off;
•sets fan speed according to the engine coolant tem-
perature;
•directs air flow to windshield and front side window
diffusers;

•activates the heated windshield (if equipped);
•displays the fan speed (Blower Control Indicator LED
lit).
NOTE:The Front Defrost Control (MAX-DEF) function
remains on for about three 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
