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,

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” mode
Air flows for each zone from four
adjustable vents of the dashboard,Dashboard Instruments and Controls
4
206

two vents on the upper part of the
dashboard and two positioned at
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
from the dashboard adjustable
vents, the central console adjustable
vent and the fixed floor vent.
• “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.
15. “REAR” mode
This soft-key is present only if the
vehicle is equipped with the
additional dual-zone air conditioning
system for rear passengers. Touching "REAR" soft-key you enter
the screen where the settings
available for rear seat passengers are
displayed. For the description of these
controls, see paragraph "Four-Zone
Climate Controls (optional)" of this
chapter.
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 theDashboard Instruments and Controls
4
207

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

6. Synchronise the two rear
passenger temperature setting. If
the driver adjust the temperature
while SYNC mode is on, this will
affect the rear passenger
temperature. If the front or rear
passengers adjust the
temperature setting the system
automatically break the function
and turn it off.
7. Set the blower speed through
sever speed levels.
8. Re-activate the rear climate
setting.
9. Turn off the rear climate option.
10. Block the settings of the rear
climate.
11. Return to the front climate
control screen. Operating Tips • Continuous use of the air
recirculation in winter, in rainy
weather or humid climate is not
recommended because it may cause
window fogging.
• Interior fogging on the windshield
can be quickly removed by fast
defrosting/defogging. The “Mix”
mode can be used to maintain a clear
windshield and provide sufficient
heating. If side window fogging
becomes a problem increase blower
speed.
NOTE:
• Recirculation mode without A/C
should not be used for long periods
of time, as fogging may occur.
• If inside the passenger compartment
there are conditions of high
temperature and humidity, when the A/C compressor is switched on (A/C
softkey illuminated on MTC+ display
or LED on climate control panel A/C
button ON) there may be some cold
steam at ventilation port outlet: this
situation is normal and does not
indicate air conditioning system
malfunction.
• Automatic Temperature Controls
(ATC) will automatically adjust the
climate control settings to prevent or
eliminate window fogging on the
front windshield.
• Make sure the A/C system air intake
grille, located under the bonnet
directly in front of the windshield, is
free of obstructions such as leaves or
other objects. Leaves collected in the
air intake may reduce airflow, and if
they enter the plenum, they could
plug the water drains. In winter
make sure the air intake is clear of
ice, slush, and snow.
• The temperature can be displayed in
U.S. or Metric. units by selecting the
“Units” customer programmable
feature. See “MTC+ Settings” in this
section.
