WARNING!(Continued)
•Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and
using a seat belt properly.
Exhaust Gas
WARNING!
Exhaust gases can injure or kill. They contain carbon
monoxide (CO), which is colorless and odorless.
Breathing it can make you unconscious and can
eventually poison you. To avoid breathing (CO),
follow these safety tips:
•Do not run the engine in a closed garage or in
confined areas any longer than needed to move
your vehicle in or out of the area.
(Continued)
WARNING!(Continued)
•If you are required to drive with the trunk/liftgate/
rear doors open, make sure that all windows are
closed and the climate control BLOWER switch is
set at high speed. DO NOT use the recirculation
mode.
•If it is necessary to sit in a parked vehicle with the
engine running, adjust your heating or cooling
controls to force outside air into the vehicle. Set the
blower at high speed.
The best protection against carbon monoxide entry into
the vehicle body is a properly maintained engine exhaust
system.
Whenever a change is noticed in the sound of the exhaust
system, when exhaust fumes can be detected inside the
vehicle, or when the underside or rear of the vehicle is
damaged, have a competent mechanic inspect the com-
plete exhaust system and adjacent body areas for broken,

HEATING AND VENTILATION
Manual Climate Controls With A/C
The Heating/Ventilation And Air Conditioning Controls
consist of a series of three rotary dials, a movable cursor
and two on/off switches.1. A/C Button
Press this button to engage the Air Conditioning. A light
will illuminate when the Air Conditioning system is
engaged.
MAX A/C
For maximum cooling, use the A/C and recirculation
modes at the same time.
ECONOMY MODE
If economy mode is desired, press the A/C switch to turn
OFF the A/C compressor. Then, rotate the temperature
control to the desired temperature.
2. Demist/Defrost Control

Fast Demisting/Defrosting Of Windshield And
Side Windows
Proceed as follows:
1. Rotate the Temperature Control to the red section.
2. Turn the Blower Control to 4 (maximum fan speed).
3. Turn the Mode Control to
.
4. Move the Recirculation Control to.
After demisting/defrosting, operate the controls as nor-
mal to restore the required comfort conditions.
NOTE:The climate control system is very useful for
speeding up and maintaining demisting since it dehu-
midifies the air. Adjust the controls as described previ-
ously and switch on the climate control system by
pressing the A/C button.
Window Demisting
In the event of considerable external moisture and/or
rain and/or large differences in temperature inside and
outside the passenger compartment, perform the follow-
ing preventive window demisting procedure:
1. Move the Recirculation Control to
.
2. Rotate the Temperature Control to the red section.
3. Turn the Blower Control to 2 (intermediate fan speed).
4. Turn the Mode Control to
with the possibility of
moving it to position
if window misting does not
occur.

Ventilation
To ventilate the passenger compartment properly, pro-
ceed as follows:
1. Fully open the vents and direct them appropriately.
2. Rotate the Temperature Control to the blue section.
3. Move the Recirculation Control to
.
4. Turn the Blower Control to the desired speed.
5. Turn the Mode Control to
.
Internal Air Recirculation Activation
•Move the Recirculation Control to.
It is advisable to switch the internal air recirculation on
while standing in queues or in tunnels to prevent the
introduction of polluted air.Do not use the function for a long time, particularly if
there are two people on board, to prevent the windows
from misting.
NOTE:The internal air recirculation system makes it
possible to reach the required heating or ventilation
conditions more quickly. Do not use the internal air
recirculation function on rainy/cold days to avoid the
possibility of the windows misting.
Climate Control
Proceed as follows:
1. Rotate the Temperature Control to the blue section.
2. Turn the Blower Control to 1 (1st fan speed). For rapid
cooling, turn Blower Control to 4 (maximum fan
speed).

System Maintenance
In winter, the climate control system must be turned on at
least once a month for about 10 minutes. Have the system
inspected at an authorized dealer before the summer.
NOTE:The system uses R-1234yf and R134a coolant
which does not pollute the environment in the event of
accidental leakage. Under no circumstances should you
use R-134a fluid which, in addition to being incompatible
with the system’s components, contributes greatly to the
greenhouse effect.
