defrost/demist vents to prevent
windows fogging.
NOTE:
Bi-Level mode is designed to let cooler
air come in the dashboard and rear
part of the central console vents and
warmer air from the floor vents.
• “Defrost” mode
Air for each zone comes from the
dashboard defrost/demist vents to
prevent windows fogging.
• “Mix” mode
Air for each zone comes from the
defrost/demist vent, the vent under
the dashboard and from floor vent.
This mode is recommended for cold
climates, to improve comfort and
prevent windows fogging.
• “Hi-Level” mode
Air for each zone comes from the
dashboard defrost/demist vents,
from the dashboard and central
console adjustable vents and the
fixed floor vents.
• “Tri-Level” mode
Air for each zone comes from all the
adjustable/fixed and defrost/demist
vents. 14. “SYNC” mode
Touch the “SYNC” soft-key on the
MTC+ to switch the Sync feature
on/off. The “SYNC” soft-key
illuminates when this feature is
selected. This function is used to
synchronise the passenger
temperature setting with the driver
temperature setting.
Changing the passenger temperature
setting while in “SYNC” will
automatically exit this feature.
Dual Zone Climate Control
Functions Air Conditioning (A/C)
The “A/C” soft-key allows to manually
activate or deactivate the air
conditioning system. When the air
conditioning system is turned on, cool
dehumidified air will flow through the
vents into the cabin. For improved fuel
economy, touch the “A/C” soft-key to
turn off the air conditioning and
manually adjust the blower and
airflow mode settings.
When the “A/C” and “AUTO”
functions are switched off it is not
possible to have air at a lower
temperature than the outside. Recirculation
and Air Quality
Sensor
When outside air contains smoke,
odours, or high humidity, or if rapid
cooling is desired, you may wish to
recirculate interior air by pressing the
recirculation control button or the
relevant soft-key to activate the two
different functionalities.
The recirculation function, that allows
to open/close the A/C air inlet by
operating the
button on the
climate control panel or the MTC+ soft
key, is integrated with the Air Quality
Sensor.
This sensor, positioned upstream of
the A/C filter, in front of the air intake
of the A/C system, detects the
presence of polluting substances and
submits an electric signal to the A/C
control unit, that closes the intake of
the external air by activating the air
recirculation.
The
button or the MTC+ soft-key
can therefore enable three operating
modes, switchable in sequence.
Starting from the outside air condition
with LED on the button off and MTC+
soft-key not highlighted, in which the
external air is aspirated by the A/C
system and treated to be introduced
