number of ways. It is however
advisable to begin by pressing one of
the buttons10AUTO and using the
buttons1or2to set the desired
temperature. This way the system will
operate in fully automatic mode so
that the temperatures set will be
reached as quickly as possible.
In this condition, manual operations
will activate the following functions:

manually, such as the air temperature
or distribution, these features switch
from the fully automatic control mode
(FULL AUTO) to manual mode (AUTO).
On starting the vehicle after stopping,
the various parameters are controlled
manually or automatically, depending
