restart regularly. Values displayed before
the failure will not be reset. Values displayed
Range
This value shows the distance in km (or
mi) that the car can still cover before
needing fuel, assuming that driving condi-
tions are kept unvaried. The display will
show “----” in the following cases:
– value lower than 50 km (or 30 mi)
– car left parked with engine running for
long.
IMPORTANT The variation of the auton-
omy value can be influenced by different
factors: driving style (see what is described
in paragraph “Driving style” in the chap-
ter “Start-up and driving”), type of route
(highways, urban, mountain, etc…), use
conditions of the car (load transported,
tire pressure, etc…). What was described
previously must be taken in consideration
when planning a trip.

AUTOMATIC
TWO-ZONE
CLIMATE
CONTROL SYSTEM
(for versions/markets,
where provided)
DESCRIPTION
The car is fitted with a two-zone climate
control system which makes it possible to
separately adjust the air temperatures and
air distribution on the driver’s side and on
the passenger’s side. Temperature control
is based on the “equivalent temperature”
logic, i.e.: the system continuously works
to keep constant the comfort inside the
passenger compartment and to compen-
sate any variation of the outside climate
conditions, including sunshine detected by
a proper sensor provided for the purpose.
The climate control system automatically
controls and adjusts the following para-
meters and functions:
❒ air temperature at driver/front passen-
ger vents;
❒ air distribution at driver/front passen-
ger vents;
❒ fan speed (continuous air flow varia-
tion);
❒compressor activation (to cool/ dehu-
midify air);
❒air recirculation.All the above functions can be changed
manually by selecting the required func-
tion/s and by changing the set parameters.
In this way the automatic control is de-
activated; the system will resume auto-
matic control only for safety reasons. Man-
ual selections prevail over automatic ones
and remain in storage until the user de-
cides to resume automatic control (press
button AUTO), except when the system
cuts in for particular safety conditions. The
control of functions not changed manual-
ly remains automatic. The amount of air
admitted to the passenger compartment
does not depend on the car speed, since
it is electronically controlled by the fan.
The temperature of the air admitted to
the passenger compartment is always con-
trolled automatically according to the tem-
peratures set on the driver’s and front
passenger’s display (except when the sys-
tem is off or under certain conditions
when the compressor is off).The following parameters and functions
can be set or changed manually:
❒ air temperatures on driver/front pas-
senger side;
❒fan speed (continuous variation);
❒air distribution on seven levels (dri-
ver/front passenger side);
❒ climate control compressor on/off en-
able;
❒monozone/two-zone distribution prior-
ity;
❒ fast demisting/defrosting;
❒ air recirculation;
❒ rear heated window;
❒system deactivation.

It is possible to personalise required tem-
peratures (driver and passenger) with a
maximum difference of 7 °C.
This way the system will start working
completely automatically to reach the
comfort temperatures as quickly as pos-
sible. The system will set air temperature,
quantity and distribution and it will con-

During fully automatic operation, the on-
ly manual settings required are the fol-
lowing:
❒MONO, to align the air temperature
and distribution set on the passenger’s
side with that on the driver’s side;
❒•air recirculation, to keep it always
on or off;
❒-to speed up demisting/defrosting of
windscreen, side windows, rear window
and door mirrors;
❒
(to demist/defrost heated rear win-
dow and door mirrors.
During full automatic system operation,
you can change at any time set tempera-
tures, air distribution and fan speed by us-
ing the relevant buttons or knobs: the sys-
tem will automatically change its settings
to adjust to the new requirements.During (FULL AUTO) operation, chang-
ing air distribution and/or flow and/or
compressor activation and/or air recircu-
lation will make the FULLwording dis-
appear. In this way the system will keep
on controlling automatically all functions,
excluding those changed manually. Fan
speed is the same for every area of the
passenger compartment.
Air temperature adjusting
knobs H - N
Turning the knobs clockwise or counter-
clockwise, respectively highers or lowers
the temperature of the air required re-
spectively in the front left zone (knob N) or
in the right zone (knob H) of the passenger
compartment. Since the system controls
two zones of the passenger compartment,
it is possible to personalise required tem-
peratures (driver and passenger) with a
maximum difference of 7 °C. The temper-
atures set are shown on the displays near
the relevant knobs. Pressing button A
(MONO) automatically aligns the temper-
ature on the passenger’s side with that on
the driver’s side; you can therefore set the
same temperature for both zones by turn-
ing knob Non driver side. Separate oper-
ation of air temperatures and distribution is
restored by turning knobs Hor pressing
again button A(MONO) when the button
led is on.Turn the knobs fully clockwise or counter-
clockwise to engage respectively HI(max-
imum heating) or LO(maximum cooling).
To deactivate these two functions, just
turn the temperature knob and set the re-
quired temperature.
Front air distribution buttons I-M
Pressing these buttons it is possible to
choose manually one of the seven possi-
ble air distributions to the passenger com-
partment (right or left side):NAir flow to the windscreen and front
side window vents to demist or de-
frost them.
˙Air flow at central and side dashboard
vents to ventilate the chest and the
face during the hot season.
OAir flow towards the front and rear
lower parts of the passenger com-
partment. Due to the natural tenden-
cy of heat to spread upwards, this type
of distribution allows heating of the
passenger compartment in the short-
est time, also giving a prompt feeling
of warmth.
