❒LO function (maximum cooling):
select by turning the temperature
knob anticlockwise beyond the
minimum value (16°C).
This function may be used to cool
down the passenger compartment
by exploiting the system's potential
to the full. In this condition, the
system stops controlling the
temperature automatically and sets
the air mixing to maximum cooling.
The air speed and distribution are
fixed. All manual settings will be
allowed when this function is on.
To switch the function off, simply
turn the temperature knob
clockwise and set the required
temperature.
Air distribution
buttons (B)
By pressing these buttons, it is
possible to set one of the 5 possible
air distributions manually:
Air flow to the windscreen and
front side window vents to demist
or defrost them.
Air flow at central and side
dashboard vents to ventilate the
chest and the face during the hot
season.
Air flow to the front and rear
footwell vents. Thanks to the
natural tendency of hot air to rise,
this distribution pattern allows
the passenger compartment to
warm up as quickly as possible,
providing an immediate feeling of
warmth.
Air flow distributed between
footwell diffusers (hotter air)
and central and side
dashboard vents (cooler air).
This distribution mode is
particularly useful in spring and
autumn on sunny days.
Air flow distributed between
the footwell vents and the
windscreen and front
side window defrosting/
demisting vents. This allows an
adequate warming of the
passenger compartment and
prevents the windows from
misting up.
The distribution set is shown by the
corresponding LEDs in the selected
buttons coming on.To restore automatic control of the
air distribution after a manual
selection, press the AUTO button.
Fan speed adjustment
buttons (H)
Press the H button at its ends to
increase or to decrease the fan
speed and therefore the amount of
air sent into the passenger
compartment, though the required
temperature remains set.
The fan speed is shown by the lit
bars on the display:
❒Maximum fan speed = all the bars lit
up
❒Minimum fan speed = one bar lit up.
The fan can only be excluded if
the climate control system
compressor has been switched off
by pressing the F button fig. 69.
IMPORTANT To restore automatic
fan speed control after a manual
adjustment, press the AUTO button.

Page 58 of 323

IMPORTANT At high vehicle speeds,
the dynamic effect may increase
the flow of air into the passenger
compartment which in this case will
not directly correspond to the fan
speed bar display.
AUTO button (A)
(automatic operation)
Press AUTO to make the system
automatically adjust the quantity and
distribution of the air introduced
into the passenger compartment. All
previous manual settings will be
cancelled.
The message FULL AUTO will
appear on the front display in this
condition.
By manually adjusting at least one of
the functions automatically
managed by the system (air
recirculation, air distribution, fan
speed or switching off the
compressor), the word FULL will
disappear from the display,
indicating that the system is no
longer automatically controlling all
the functions (the temperature
will still be controlled automatically).IMPORTANT Should the system
(after manual intervention) no longer
be able to guarantee the target
temperature for the passenger
compartment, the set temperature
value will start flashing to indicate
the difficulties the system is
experiencing and then the word
AUTO will go out.
To restore system automatic control
at any time, after one or more
manual adjustments, press the
AUTO button.
Air recirculation on/off
button (G)
The air recirculation is managed
according to the following operating
logic:
❒override on (inside air recirculation
always on), indicated by the LED
on button G and the
symbol on
the display;
❒override off (air recirculation
constantly off with air intake from the
outside), signalled by the LED in
the button switching off and by the
symbol in the display
disappearing.
These operating conditions are
obtained by pressing air recirculation
button G in sequence.
IMPORTANT The engagement of
the air recirculation system makes it
possible to reach the required
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 control
compressor is off.
To prevent the windows from
misting up, the recirculation is forced
off (i.e. air is drawn in from the
outside) when the outside
temperature is cold.
It is advisable not to use the air
recirculation function when the
outside temperature is low to
prevent the windows from rapidly
misting up.

enablement/off button
(F)
Press button
to switch the climate
control compressor off (if on). The
icon on the display will go out.
Press the button when the LED is off
to automatically restore system
control and use of the compressor.
The icon will light up in the display in
this case.
The system will switch recirculation
off when the compressor is
switched off to prevent windows
from misting up. Although the
system is capable of maintaining the
required temperature, the word
FULL will disappear from the display.
If, on the other hand, it is no longer
capable of maintaining the
temperature, the letters flash and
the word AUTO goes out.
IMPORTANT With the compressor
off, it is not possible to introduce air
cooler than ambient temperature
into the passenger compartment.
Furthermore, in certain conditions,
the windows could mist up rapidly
because the air is not dehumidified.The system remembers that the
compressor has been switched off,
even after the engine has stopped.
To restore automatic compressor
control, press thebutton again (in
this case, the system will only work
as a heater) or press the AUTO
button.
With the compressor switched off, if
the outside temperature is higher
than the one set, the system is not
capable of satisfying this request
and signals it by the digits for the
temperature setting flashing after
which the word AUTO goes out.
With the climate control compressor
off, the fan speed can be set to
zero manually (no bar shown).
With the compressor enabled and
the engine started, the fan speed
may be reduced to the minimum
setting (only one bar shown).Button for rapid
window demisting/
defrosting (D)
Pressing this button, the climate
control system will automatically
switch on all the functions required
for fast windscreen and front side
window demisting/defrosting:
❒switches on climate control
compressor when climatic conditions
are suitable;
❒sets air recirculation off;
❒sets maximum air temperature HI in
both areas;
❒sets the fan speed according to the
engine coolant temperature to limit
the flow of air that is not sufficiently
warm to demist the windows;
❒directs air flow to windscreen and
front side windows vents;
❒sets heated rear window on.
IMPORTANT The rapid demisting/
defrosting function for the windows
remains on for about 3 minutes from
