Analog Clock To adjust the analog clock located on
the center of the dashboard between
the air outlets, use the MTC+ System
(see “MTC+ Settings” in this section).
The time can be displayed also on the
MTC+ main menu bar and on the
instrument cluster display (see “MTC+
Settings” in this section).
Clock lighting works in the same way
as instrument and controls
backlighting (refer to “Lights” in
section “Understanding the Vehicle”). Air Conditioning Controls The vehicle is equipped with an
automatic dual-zone air conditioning
system that allows to adjust separately
the temperature and the airflow
distribution in the left and in the right
zone of the passenger compartment,
according to the requests of the driver
and the front passenger.
A humidity sensor, positioned on the
inner surface of the windshield, over
the rear view mirror, allows the A/C
system to prevent/eliminate fogging of
the windshield and side windows.
The best efficacy in preventing
fogging is obtained by selecting the
“AUTO” function, described later.
A dual zone solar sensor helps to
achieve the best comfort in presence
of solar radiation.
Upon request, the vehicle can be
equipped with an additional
automatic dual-zone air conditioning
system installed in the central console,
between the front seats. The
additional dual-zone module, can be
operated by the rear passengers (see
“Four-zone Climate Control
(optional)” in this chapter), by means
of the control panel at the end of
central console, but also by the front passengers using the soft-keys on
MTC+ display.
Dual Zone Climate Controls This system can be operated by using
the controls of the climate control
panel on the dashboard, or the
soft-keys on the MTC+ display when
“Climate” mode is selected.
In the "Climate" screen of the MTC+,
the front seats comfort setting
soft-keys may be present (optional
equipments). The “OFF” state of the
front seats comfort setting is shown on
their soft-key.

small pop-up will appear for three
seconds above the “Climate” icon on
the main bar. 1. Climate control on/off
Once you enter the screen “Climate”,
touch the “ON” soft-key to switch the
climate control on/off. If the A/C

activated. For further details, see paragraph “Dual zone Climate Control
Functions” in this chapter.
6. Blower control
Blower control is used to adjust the
amount of air forced through the
climate system. Eight levels of blower
speed can be selected. Adjusting the
blower will cause automatic mode to
switch to manual.
On the climate control panel, push the
rocker switch up to increase fan speed.
Push the rocker switch down to
decrease fan speed. Pushing down the
rocker switch when set blower is at the
first speed, causes the A/C system
shutdown (OFF condition).
On the MTC+ display, touch the small
icon of the blower to decrease the
speed, or the big icon to increase it.
Between the two icons, bars will
appear to show the number of the
corresponding selected speed.
The blower can also be activated/
regulated by touching the bars
between the two blower icons.
When the MTC+ is displayed in any
mode other than “Climate”, the
blower speed is indicated by the bright
segments in the climate icon.

“AUTO” LED on the button and the
MTC+ soft-key will turn off. With
engine off, the blower will run at
minimum speed (1) and can be
increased manually: with engine on,
the blower speed will gradually
increase to the higher speed (8). MAX
defrosting/demisting shall also involve
REAR defrosting/demisting function. If
this function is turned off the climate
system will return to the previous
setting, switching on the A/C (“A/C” LED on the button and the MTC+
soft-key illuminated).
10. REAR defrosting/demisting
Press the
button or the MTC+
soft-key to turn on the rear window

heated external mirrors automatically
turn off after 10 minutes.
CAUTION!
Failure to observe the following
cautions may cause damage to the
rear windows defroster:
• Use care when washing the inside of
the rear window. Do not use
abrasive window cleaners on the
interior surface of the window. Use a
soft cloth and a mild washing
solution, wiping parallel to the
heating elements. Labels can be
peeled off after soaking with warm
water.
• Do not use scrapers, sharp
instruments, or abrasive window
cleaners on the interior surface of
the window. • Keep all objects inside the vehicle at
a safe distance from the window.
11. MAX A/C
By
pressing the “MAX

the MTC+ soft-key, the system
automatically switches to get the
maximum cold air flow in both zones.
12-13 Air flow distribution modes
The airflow distribution mode,
respectively on the driver and on the
passenger zone, can be adjusted so air
comes from the dashboard vents,
vents under the dashboard in
direction of the floor, vents under the
front seats and demist/defrost vents.
The MTC+ display contains the
relevant soft-keys used to set these
modes for each zone. The climate
control panel features a single button
for each zone: press it several times to
select and set the required airflow
distribution mode.
Available settings are as follows:
• “Floor” mode
Air for each zone comes from the
front vents, located under the
dashboard and under the front
seats. A small portion of the airflow
is directed through the
defrost/demist vents to prevent
windows fogging.Dashboard Instruments and Controls
