recirculation is set to "outside air" (LED on button B off). This logic guarantees optimum visibility at the windows. The driver can
always set air recirculation and climate control system compressor.
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 started;
❒fan speed set at least to 1
stspeed;

SWIVEL OPENINGTo bring the roof into "swivel" position,
press and release button C fig. 38.
This type of swivel-opening can be
activated irrespective of the position of
the sun roof. When starting with the
roof in closed position, pressing the
button automatically causes its
swivel-opening. If the roof is already
open, the button must be held until the
roof reaches the swivel-opening
position.Pressing button C again during
automatic movement of the roof will
stop it.
ANTI-PINCH DEVICEThe sun roof has an anti-pinch safety
system capable of detecting the
presence of an obstacle during the
closing movement: if this happens, the
system intervenes and the movement
of the roof is immediately reversed
into opening.EMERGENCY OPERATIONIf the control buttons fail to operate, the
sun roof can be moved manually,
proceeding as described below:
❒remove protective cap A fig. 39 on
the internal trim;
❒take Allen key B provided;
❒place Allen key B into housing A;❒turn Allen key B in a clockwise
direction to open the roof or in an
anticlockwise direction to close it.
INITIALISATION
PROCEDUREAfter irregular behaviour of the sun roof
or an emergency manoeuvre (see
description in the previous paragraph),
the automatic operation of the sun
roof must be initialised again.
Proceed as follows:
❒press button A fig. 38 to bring the
roof into completely closed position;
❒bring the ignition device to STOP and
wait at least 10 seconds;
❒bring the ignition device to MAR;
❒hold button A down for at least 10
seconds, then you should hear the
mechanical stop of the roof motor;
❒within 5 seconds hold button A
down: the roof will perform a complete
automatic opening and closing cycle (to
indicate that the initialisation procedure
has been successful). If this does not
occur, the procedure must be restarted
from the beginning.

"Auto" MODEThis mode is aimed at comfort and
safety in normal grip and driving
conditions. On 4x4 versions, this mode
also reduces fuel consumption, since
it automatically disconnects the
transmission from the rear wheels if the
road and driving conditions allow it, in
addition to changing drive torque
distribution between the front and rear
axles.ActivationStarting from the active "Traction/All
Weather" mode, turn the ring nut
anticlockwise, keeping it in this position
for at least half a second, and in any
case until the relevant LED turns on,
and the selected mode is shown on the
display. The LED for the previously set
mode will simultaneously turn off. Upon
release, the ring nut will return to the
central position.
Starting from the active "Sport" mode,
turn the ring nut clockwise, keeping it in
this position for at least half a second,
and in any case until the relevant LED
turns on, and the selected mode is
shown on the display. The LED for the
previously set mode will simultaneously
turn off. Upon release, the ring nut will
return to the central position.
"Traction"/"All Weather" MODEIt is a driving mode for safety in poor
vehicle grip conditions (wet/slippery
road surface, rain, snow). On the 4x4
versions use is also recommended
on unsurfaced roads or off-road.ActivationStarting from the active "Auto" mode,
turn the ring nut clockwise, keeping it in
this position for at least half a second,

simultaneously turn off. Upon release,
the ring nut will return to the central
position.
"Sport" MODEIt is the mode that emphasises the
pleasure of sport driving; it increases
fuel consumption however. Traction
is optimised on 4x4 versions, allowing
the vehicle road-hold performance
to be improved, even on bends.ActivationStarting from the active "Auto" mode,
