;
❒turn knob C to 6 (maximum fan

Then use the controls to maintain the
desired comfort conditions and press
button F to turn internal air recirculation
off (circular LED around the button off)
and prevent misting.
IMPORTANT When the engine is cold, it
takes a few minutes to obtain fast
heating.
AUTOMATIC
DEMISTING/DEFROSTING
(MAX-DEF function)
This function activates automatic
demisting/defrosting of: front windows
(windscreen and side windows), heated
nozzles, heated exterior rear view
mirrors.
To activate the function, turn knob E to
the “Defrosting” symbol identified by
the
symbol.
The manual climate control system will
automatically set itself to the following
configuration:
❒the demisting symbol
will turn
from red to orange (to indicate that
the function has been activated);❒the heated rear window (and all
defrosting devices in the car) will be
turned on. The circular LED around
the
button will light up to indicate
that the function has been activated;
❒the air flow will go to maximum
speed (6th);
❒air circulation will be opened, if it was
closed (the circular LED around the
corresponding button will be off);
❒air mixing will go to “maximum heat”;
❒the additional electric heater (for
versions/markets, where provided)
will be turned on;
❒the compressor will be activated (the
circular LED will switch on to indicate
that the AC function is on).
Window demisting
The climate control system is very
useful in preventing the windows from
misting up in the event of high levels
of humidity.
In the event of considerable outside
moisture and/or rain and/or
considerable differences in temperature
inside and outside the passenger
compartment, proceed as follows to
demist the windows:
❒turn knob A to the red section;
25

Position A: Air flow distribution
between centre/side dashboard
vents, rear diffuser and windscreen
and front side window demisting/
defrosting diffusers. This
distribution setting ventilates the
passenger compartment well and
prevents the windows from misting
up.
Position B: Air flow distributed
between footwell diffusers and
windscreen and front side window
defrosting/demisting diffusers.
This distribution setting allows the
passenger compartment to warm
up efficiently and prevents the
windows from misting up.
Position C: Air flow distribution
between footwell diffusers (hotter
air) and centre/side dashboard
diffusers and rear diffuser (cooler
air).
Position D: Automatic
demisting/defrosting activation
(see description in previous
pages).START&STOP
Manual climate control
If the Start&Stop function is activated
(engine off when the car speed is
0 km/h), the system keeps the air flow
selected by the user.
In these conditions, the compartment
cooling and heating cannot be
guaranteed, as the compressor stops
with the engine coolant pump.
The Start&Stop function can be
deactivated to enhance the operation of
the climate control system by pressing
the dedicated button on the
dashboard.
SERVICING
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 Alfa
Romeo Dealership before the summer.
