The high beam headlights are turned off
by pushing the left stalk toward the
instrument panel again. The warning
light/icon
will switch off in the
instrument panel when the headlights
are successfully turned off.
Flashing The Headlights
Pulling the left stalk toward the steering
wheel will activate the high beam
headlights manually. The lights will
remain on as long as the stalk is pulled
back; once the stalk is released, the
lights will switch off again.
Automatic High Beam Headlights —
If Equipped
The Automatic High Beam Headlights
system provides increased forward
lighting at night by automating high
beam control through the use of a
digital camera mounted on the
windshield. This camera detects vehicle
specific light and automatically switches
from high beams to low beams until the
approaching vehicle is out of view.
This function is enabled with the
Connect system, and can only be
activated with the light switch turned to
(AUTO).
If the high beam headlights are on, the
blue icon/warning light
will illuminate
in the instrument panel.
When the speed is higher than 37 mph
(60 km/h) and the function is active, the
lights will switch off if the left stalk is
pushed again. When the speed is lower than 15 mph
(25 km/h) and the function is active, the
function switches the high beam
headlights off.
If the high beam headlights are
operated quickly again (pushing the left
stalk towards the instrument panel), the
warning light/icon
will switch on in
the instrument panel and the main
beam headlights will be switched on
constantly until the speed exceeds
37 mph (60 km/h).
When the speed of 37 mph (60 km/h) is
exceeded again, the automatic
functioning is reactivated.
If the left stalk is pushed again with the
Automatic High Beam Headlights
activated, the Automatic High Beam
Headlights function deactivates.
To deactivate the automatic headlight
function, rotate the headlight switch to
the
position.
Note: If the system recognizes inner
city travel, the automatic functions
remain disabled independently of the
vehicle’s speed.
Turn Signals
To activate the turn signals function,
move the left lever up or down until it
reaches the detent. Moving the lever
upward flashes the right turn signal and
moving the lever downward will flash
the left turn signal. The
orturn signal will blink on the
instrument panel.
The turn signals turn off automatically
when the vehicle is brought back onto a
straight course.
“Lane Change” Function
Tap the lever up or down once, without
moving beyond the detent, and the turn
signal (right or left) will flash five times.
Then, the turn signal (right or left) will
automatically turn off.
To turn off the flashing before the end of
the cycle, move the lever in the
opposite direction until the first click
(about half way).
Static Bending Light
Function (SBL) — If
Equipped
The SBL function utilizes Light Emitting
Diodes (LEDs) in order to better
illuminate the street and increase the
light angle while turning. This function is
enabled by rotating the light switch to
position
or(AUTO). The SBL
LEDs activate when the speed is below

which does not pollute the environment in
the event of accidental leakage. Under no
circumstances, use R134a and R12 fluids,
which are incompatible with the
components of this system.
Description
The Automatic Dual Zone Climate
Control System adjusts the temperature
and air distribution independently
between the driver and passenger.
The system maintains the set
temperature inside the passenger
compartment and compensates for
outside temperature change.
The automatic setting will adjust the
following to maintain comfort within the
passenger compartment:
Air temperature from the driver/front
passenger side vents
Air distribution from the driver/front
passenger side vents
Fan speed (continuous variation of
the air flow)
Compressor variations (for
cooling/dehumidifying the air)
Air recirculation The Climate Control System can also
be operated manually by using the
buttons and knobs on the faceplate.
Manual selections will override the
automatic settings, which are stored
until the AUTO button is pushed. If the
system intervenes for safety reasons,
the automatic setting will take control of
the system.
The below operations will not
deactivate the automatic (AUTO)
function:
Air Recirculation activation/
deactivation
A/C activation/deactivation
SYNC function activation
Rear Window Defrost activation/
deactivation
When in AUTO mode, the vehicle’s
internal temperature is controlled
according to the set temperature.
The following can be manually set or
adjusted:
Driver/passenger air temperature
Blower speed (continuous variation)
Air distribution (seven positions for
driver and passenger)
A/C activation
Front Defroster
Air recirculation
Rear Defroster
System deactivation
Operating Mode
The Climate Control system can be
activated in different ways. It is
recommended to use the automatic
function. Push the AUTO button and
set the desired temperatures.
The automatic system adjusts the
temperature, quantity, and distribution
of air introduced into the passenger
compartment. It also controls air
recirculation and the activation of the air
conditioner.
At any time during automatic operation,
you can change the temperature,
activate or deactivate the Rear
Defroster, activate SYNC, activate or
deactivate the air conditioner, and
activate or deactivate air recirculation.
The system will automatically adjust to
the new settings.

Air Recirculation And Air
Quality System (AQS)
Air Recirculation is managed according
to the following operating mode:
Automatic engagement: indicator is
illuminated above the “A” on the Air
Recirculation Button
Forced activation (air circulation
always activated): indicator illuminated
above the
iconontheAir
Recirculation Button
Forced deactivation (air recirculation
always off with intake of outside air):
both indicators illuminated on the Air
Recirculation Button The three operating conditions are
obtained by pushing the Air
Recirculation Button
in sequence.
Enabling The Air Quality System
(AQS) Function — If Equipped
When the automatic recirculation
function is selected, the AQS function
automatically activates internal air
recirculation when the outside air is
polluted (e.g. in heavy traffic and
tunnels).
At low external temperatures or in high
humidity, the automatic function turns
off to avoid fogging up the windows.
The user can select the function again
by pushing the Air Recirculation Button.
In automatic operation, air recirculation
will be controlled by the system
according to outside environmental
conditions.
Note:
With the AQS function active and
after the internal air recirculation
system has been functioning for a set
amount of time, the Climate Control
System enables air intake to cycle the
air in the passenger compartment for a
set time. The AQS function is disabled

SymbolWhat It Means What To Do
ENGINE OIL DETERIORATED — IF EQUIPPED
The symbol is displayed only for a limited time.
Note:
After the first indication, each time the engine is started
the symbol will continue to switch on as described
above until the oil is changed.
If the symbol flashes, this does not mean that there is a
fault on the vehicle, rather it simply reports that it is now
necessary to change the oil as a result of regular use of
the vehicle. The deterioration of engine oil is accelerated
by using the vehicle for short drives, preventing the
engine from reaching operating temperature.Contact an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
Caution!
Deteriorated engine oil should be replaced as soon as possible after the symbol is switched on, and never more than 310 miles (500 km) after
it first switches on. Failure to observe the above may result in severe damage to the engine and invalidate the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
When this symbol comes on, it does not mean that the level of engine oil is low, so if it flashes you do not need to top up the engine oil.
