Air temperature
adjusting knob (I)
temperatura
Turning the knob
clockwise or counter-clockwise,
respectively raises or lowers the
temperature of the air required in the
passenger compartment.
Set temperature is shown on the
display.
Turning the knob fully clockwise or
counter-clockwise until it reaches the ex-
treme selections HI or LO, the maximum
heating or cooling functions are respec-
tively engaged:
❒HI function (highest heating power):
this is turned on by rotating the temper-
ature knob clockwise and passing the max.
temperature value (32 °C).
This function can be engaged when re-
quiring to heat the passenger compart-
ment as quickly as possible, exploiting the
maximum potential of the system. Under
these conditions, the system is no longer
controlled by the automatic temperature
adjustment system and sets air mixing to
maximum heating by modulating speed
and air distribution.
More particularly, max. fan speed will not
be immediately engaged if coolant is not
hot enough; this to prevent admitting air
that is not warm enough to the passenger
compartment.
All manual settings are possible with this
function on.To switch the function off, simply turn the
knob counter-clockwise and set the re-
quired temperature.
❒LO function (highest cooling power:
this is turned on by rotating the temper-
ature knob counter-clockwise and passing
the min. temperature value (16 °C).
This function can be engaged when re-
quiring to cool the passenger compart-
ment as quickly as possible, exploiting the
maximum potential of the system. Under
these conditions, the system is no longer
controlled by the automatic temperature
adjustment system and sets air mixing to
maximum cooling by modulating speed
and air distribution. All manual settings are
possible with this function on.
To switch the function off, simply turn the
knob clockwise and set the required tem-
perature.
