KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
In-depth knowledge of your new
vehicle starts here.
The booklet that you are reading
simply and directly explains how it is
made and how it works.
That’s why we advise you to read it
seated comfortably on board, so
that you can see what is described
here for yourself.THE KEYS....................................... 14

STEERING WHEEL
The height and axial position of the
steering wheel can be adjusted
on all versions.
To carry out the adjustment,
proceed as follows:
❒release lever A fig. 48 by pushing it
forwards (position 1);
❒adjust the steering wheel;
❒lock lever A fig. 48 by pulling it
towards the steering wheel (position
2).
24) 25)
WARNING
24) All adjustments must only be
carried out with the vehicle
stationary and the engine off.
25) Under no circumstances should
aftermarket operations involving
steering system or steering
column modifications (e.g.:
installation of anti-theft device) be
carried out that could badly
affect performance and safety.
This also causes the warranty to
become null and void and results
in vehicle non-compliance with
type-approval requirements.
REAR VIEW
MIRRORS
INTERIOR MIRROR
(for versions/markets, where
provided)
The mirror is fitted with a safety
device that causes its release in the
event of a violent impact with the
passenger.
Lever A fig. 49 can be used to move
the mirror to two different positions:
normal or antiglare.
Some versions may feature an
internal child surveillance mirror B
fig. 50.

❒air recirculation, to keep the
function always either on or off;
❒
to speed up demisting/defrosting
of windscreen, rear window and
external rear view mirrors.
During fully automatic system
operation, you can change the set
temperature, air distribution and fan
speed at any time by using the
relevant buttons or knobs: the
system will automatically change its
settings to adjust to the new
requirements.During fully automatic operation
(FULL AUTO), the word FULL will
disappear if the air distribution
and/or flow rate and/or engagement
of the compressor and/or
recirculation settings are changed. In
this way, the functions will switch
from automatic to manual control
until the AUTO button is pressed
again. With one or more functions
turned on manually, the adjustment
of the intake air temperature
continues to be managed
automatically, except with the
compressor switched off: if this is
the case, the temperature of the air
sent into the passenger
compartment cannot be lower than
that of the outside air.
CONTROLS
Air temperature
adjustment knob (I)
Turn the knob either clockwise or
anticlockwise to increase or lower
the requested temperature in the
passenger compartment.
The set temperature is shown on
the display.Turn the knob either fully to the right
or fully to the left to the extreme HI
or LO position to turn the maximum
heating or maximum cooling
functions on:❒HI function (maximum heating):
select by turning the temperature
knob clockwise beyond the
maximum value (32°C).
This function may be used to heat
up the passenger compartment
exploiting the system potential to
the maximum. In this condition, the
system stops controlling the
temperature automatically and sets
the air mixing to maximum heating.
The air speed and distribution are
fixed.
In particular, if the heating fluid is not
sufficiently hot, the maximum fan
speed does not come on straight
away in order to limit the intake
of insufficiently hot air to the
passenger compartment.
All manual settings will be allowed
when this function is on.
To switch the function off, simply
turn the temperature knob
anticlockwise and set the required
temperature.
