•Heated rear window
•System deactivation
NOTE:The Climate Control system detects the passenger
compartment temperature using a temperature sensor
located in the interior rearview mirror and protected by a
specific cover. Obstructing the field of view of this sensor
with any object could cause the climate control system to
operate with less than optimal efficiency.
Turning On The Climate Control System
The Climate Control system can be turned on in different
ways: it is recommended to push the AUTO button and
turn the Temperature Control knobs to set the desired
temperatures.
The system operates automatically to adjust the tempera-
ture, quantity and distribution of the air introduced into
the passenger compartment. It also manages the air
recirculation function and the activation of the air condi-
tioning compressor.
During automatic operation, you can change the set
temperatures, air distribution and blower speed at any
time by using the relevant buttons or knobs: the system
will automatically change the settings to adjust to the
new requirements.
During automatic operation (AUTO), varying the air
flow and/or distribution (which are not displayed)
causes the AUTO function LED to turn off and the system
to operate in MANUAL mode (displaying both the flow
and distribution requested).
When the compressor is deactivated, the AUTO opera-
tion remains active only if the system can guarantee
in-car comfort. Otherwise, the system changes to

NOTE:The Front Defrost Control (MAX-DEF) function
remains on for approximately three minutes from when
the engine coolant reaches the appropriate temperature.
When the function is activated, the AUTO button LED
turns off. With the function activated, the only possible
manual adjustments are adjusting the fan speed and
turning the heated rear window off.
When the Recirculation Control, Rear Defrost Control , or
AUTO buttons are pushed, the Climate Control system
will deactivate the Front Defrost (MAX-DEF) function.
Selecting the footwell/windshield or only windshield
distribution activates the Climate Control system com-
pressor (LED on A/C button on) and the air recirculation
is set to#outside air#intake (LED on the recirculation
button off).
This logic guarantees optimum visibility at the windows.
It is, however, always possible to manage air recirculation
and the Climate Control system compressor manually.
Rear Window Defrosting
Push and release the rear window defrost button to turn
the function on/off.
Activation of this function is indicated by the rear defrost
indicator light on the instrument panel turning on. The
function is automatically deactivated after 20 minutes.
If equipped, push the rear defrost button to activate the
defrosting of door mirrors and heated rear window.
CAUTION!
To avoid causing damage to the rear window de-
froster heating filaments do not affix stickers or other
objects to the inside of the rear glass.
