• Within 15 seconds, touch the same
soft-key a third time to shut off the
seat heating.
NOTE:
Once a heat setting is selected, heat
will be felt within 2 to 5 minutes.
When the HI-level setting is selected,
the heater will provide a boosted heat
level during the first 4 minutes of
operation.
Then, the heat output will drop to the
normal HI-level.
If the HI-level setting is selected, the
system will automatically switch to
LO-level after a maximum of 60
minutes of continuous operation.
At that time, the display will indicate
the change from HI to LO.
The LO-level setting will turn OFF
automatically after a maximum of
approximately 45 minutes. Front Ventilated Seats
(optional) To enhance occupants comfort by high
external temperatures, both the driver
and passenger seats, on request, can
be ventilated.
Small fans are located in the seat
cushion and seatback, they draw air
from the seat surface through fine
perforations in the seat cover to help
keep the driver and front passenger
cooler when the temperature is high.
The seats comfort commands are in
the “Climate” screen of the MTC+.
They are present in the “Climate”
screen even when the A/C is off. See
“Air Conditioning Controls” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and Controls”
for further details.

Turn Signals
Move the multifunction lever all the
way up or down until the stop
triggers.
The left or right arrow on the
speedometer and tachometer
instrument cluster respectively, flashes
to show proper operation of the front
and rear turn signal lights. To activate lane change function, tap
the lever up or down once, without
moving beyond the detent. The turn
signals (right or left) will flash three
times then automatically turn off.
This function is useful when
overtaking or changing lanes.
NOTE:
• If either light remains on and does
not flash, or flashes at a fast rate,
check for a defective outside light. If
an indicator on the instrument
cluster fails while moving the lever,
then the turn indicator could be
defective.
• The message that a turn signal is on
will appear in the instrument cluster
and a continuous chime will sound if
the vehicle is driven more than 1 mile
(1.6 km) with either turn signal on. High Beams and Flashing

Headlights Leveling (only with
Bi-Xenon Headlights) A correct headlights leveling is crucial
for the safety of the vehicle’s
occupants and of people in the street.
Moreover it is included in the road
regulation law.
In order to obtain the best visibility
conditions while driving with
headlights on, the headlight beam
must be properly leveled.
Headlights leveling must be adjusted
at every change of the weight and
position of the passengers and/or of
the load carried.
A heavy load will weigh the vehicle
down and, as a consequence, the light
beam will be raised. In this case it is
important to adjust the beam to a
correct level using the right regulator
located on the side of the light switch. The regulator has 3 different
positions:
0 One or two people on the front
seats.
1 Four or five people in the
vehicle.
2 Four or five people + load in
the trunk.
During the regulation, the different
positions (0, 1 and 2) are visualized on
the TFT display.
Dome Lights The front and rear part of the dome,
include each a central and two reading
lights.
The central light automatically turns
on when one of the doors is opened
and turns off when the door is closed
(timed switching off). The light may be switched on manually by pressing the
central button.
The reading lights are controlled by
the respective side buttons.
If they are turned on by pressing the
button, both central and reading lights
will stay on for about 10 minutes after
turning the engine off, and will then
turn off gradually.
When the exterior lights are switched
on, the two night LEDs fitted on the
side of the power buttons on the
overhead console will light up to
facilitate the use of the transmission
lever and the central console.Understanding the Vehicle

arms. It will not operate under the
following conditions:
• Low Temperature Wipe Inhibit : the
rain sensing feature will not operate
when the ignition is in RUN position,
the vehicle is stationary and the
outside temperature is below 32°F
(0°C). To resume, set the automatic
feature on the multifunction lever,
start the engine and drive or wait
until the outside temperature rises
above freezing.
• Wipe Inhibit with Transmission in
Neutral Position : the rain sensing
feature will not operate when the
ignition is placed in the RUN
position, the transmission shift lever
is in the N (Neutral) position and the
vehicle speed is less than 5 mph
(8 km/h). To resume, set the
multifunction lever to the automatic
function or move the shift lever out
of N (Neutral).
Headlights On with Windshield
Wipers When activating this function, the
headlights will light up approximately
10 seconds after the wipers acting on
the windshield are turned on if the
light switch is placed in “AUTO”
position. In addition, the headlights switch off when the wipers are turned
off (position “OFF”) if they were
previously turned by using this
function. Powering on Headlights with
wipers can be activated and
deactivated with the MTC+ System, see
“MTC+ Settings” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and Controls”
for further information.
Wiper Blade Maintenance When the wiper arms acting on the
windshield are in the rest position it is
not possible to check or replace the
blades (Service position) as they are
folded under the hood. To service the
blades (see paragraph “Wiper
Maintenance and Blades
Replacement” in chapter
“Maintenance Procedures” of section
“Maintenance and Care”) it is
necessary to shift the multifunction
lever to “OFF” and the ignition switch
to OFF position.
Shift the control lever within 15
seconds to the “MIST” position
(forward rotation of the end of the
multifunction control lever) and
release. The blades are brought in a
position enabling to open the wiper
arms and change the blades. It is possible to use the “MIST” position
for a maximum of 3 times within two
minutes, corresponding to different
three blades positions on the
windshield. When completed, bring
the ignition switch in RUN : the arms
will reposition. If necessary move the
multifunction lever to other required
operating positions.
WARNING!
Operate or service the windshield
wiper blades without deactivating the
wipers (“OFF” position), leaving the
ignition switch in RUN can be
dangerous for the operator since the
rain sensor may suddenly activate the
wipers. Always use “Service” position
for any intervention on the windshield
wiper blades.Understanding the Vehicle

• Before closing the compartment
door, ensure that the drawer is fully
back in its seat. The AUX auxiliary port features:
• typical input impedance between
AUX-IN and AUX_REF: 13 Kohm;
• max. applicable voltage: 0.75 Vrms at
1 kHz;
• input compatible only with 3.5 mm
jack connectors (not included).
Any player with these characteristics
and analogue audio output (headset
output type) can be served by the
MTC+ System. The system can
recognise the connection to a player
outlet autonomously, by enabling
access to the audio functions
connected to this source.
This USB input
can be used for
data exchange and charge of the
connected source (refer to the MTC+
guide for further details).
Through this USB input is possible to
