distribution;
• fan speed (stepless change);
• compressor activation;
• air recirculation.
All the functions listed above can be
modified manually, i.e. the user can
select one or more of these functions
as desired, using the control panel.
The manual selections always have
priority over the automatic ones and
are memorized until the user chooses
the automatic control again.
When a function has been set
manually, the other automatic
functions will not be affected.
The following parameters/functions
can be set/modified manually:
• left-hand/right-hand side air
temperature;
• fan speed;
• air distribution on 7 positions
(left-hand/ right-hand);
• compressor activation;
• single/dual-zone distribution priority;
• defrosting/defogging function (MAX
DEF);
• air recirculation;
• automatic/manual control of the
system;
• heated rear window;• system deactivation;
• opening/closing of air duct leading
to rear vents.
Activation
The system can be started up in a
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:
• MONO button7adjusts the air
temperature and distribution in the
two heating/air conditioning areas;
• REAR button12enables/disables the
air flow to the rear vents;
• button6turns off the compressor;
• button8activates/deactivates the
defrosting/defogging function on
the front side windows;
• button11activates/deactivates the
heated rear window.By altering any other parameter
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
on the options selected by the user
before turning the engine off.
Therefore all the manual operations
performed before the vehicle is turned
off are stored and maintained for the
next start up.
This also applies to the OFF function
described below.
