the rear end of the central console.
Each of these vents can be singly
adjusted. The air grids or vanes of
the vents can be moved to adjust air
flow direction. A setting wheel,
placed near each vent, allows to
regulate or close the airflow.
• “Bi-Level” mode
Air for each zone comes from the
dashboard and central console
adjustable vents and the fixed floor
vents. A small portion of the airflow
is directed through the
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 and

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.

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 theDashboard Instruments and Controls

relevant soft-key button 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
into the passenger compartment,
subsequent actuations of the
button or the MTC+ soft-key
change the state as follows.
• First press: the A/C system activates
the automatic recirculation control
by using the signal transmitted from
the AQS. The symbol “A” on the
button and the MTC+ soft-key
lights up. • Second press: the A/C system
activates the recirculation, the LED
on the button or the MTC+ soft-key
light up. The A/C system will stay this
way up to a new actuation, or until
the increased humidity could lead to
windshield fogging: in this case the
recirculation automatically switches
to external air.
• Third press: the A/C system switches
back to external air (default
operating mode).
The next press of the
button or
the MTC+ soft-key restarts the
operating cycle just described.
NOTE:
To avoid the risk of fogging, the AQS is
disabled when the external
temperature falls below 35 °F (2 °C). NOTE:
In cold weather, use of recirculation
mode may lead to window fogging.
Select the MIX mode and increase
the blower speed to prevent fogging.
MAX A/C
Activating this function, the system
switches to exit “AUTO”, enter “A/C”
and recirculation. The minimum
temperature (LO) in both zones, the
maximum blower speed and the
“Dashboard” air distribution mode
are also selected.
The blower speed can be adjusted and
the air distribution can be modified
without exiting “MAX A/C”. To exit
“MAX A/C” touch the relevant MTC+
soft-key or exit A/C or recirculation.Dashboard Instruments and Controls
