Mix ModeAir is directed through the floor, defrost,
and side window demister outlets. This
setting works best in cold or snowy
conditions that require extra heat to the
windshield. This setting is good for maintaining
comfort while reducing moisture on the
windshield.
Front Defrost And Panel Mode
Air flow is distributed between the
windshield demisting/defrosting vents
and side/central dashboard vents. This
setting allows air to flow to the
windshield on sunny days.
Front Defrost And Bi-Level Mode
Air flow is distributed to all vents.

NOTE:
The climate control system stores the previously
set temperatures and resumes operation when
any button on the system is pushed.
To Turn On The Climate Control System
To switch the climate control system on in
automatic mode, push the AUTO button.
Operating Mode
The Climate Control system can be activated in
different ways. It is recommended to use the
automatic function. Push the AUTO button and
set the desired temperatures.
The automatic system adjusts the temperature,
quantity, and distribution of air introduced into
the passenger compartment. It also controls air
recirculation and the activation of the air
conditioner.
At any time during automatic operation, you can
change the temperature, activate or deactivate
the Rear Defrost, activate SYNC, activate or
deactivate the air conditioner, and activate or
deactivate air recirculation. The system will
automatically adjust to the new settings.
Climate Control Display Settings
The Climate Control settings are visible on the
radio screen.
The display on the radio system is a pop up
window, which is activated by pushing the
buttons or turning the knobs on the Climate
Control system. The indicator lights located on
the number of buttons and knobs indicate that
the selected feature is on/off. If no operation is
performed for a predetermined time, the pop-up
will close on the display.
Humidity Sensor
The Humidity Sensor helps prevent the windows
from fogging up. The AUTO function (indicator
illuminated) must be on for the Humidity Sensor
to function.
When outside temperature is low, the system
may turn the compressor on and turn air recircu -
lation off for safer driving.
Stop/Start
The Stop/Start system shuts off the engine when
the vehicle speed is 0 mph (0 km/h), as a fuel
conservation measure.
In order to maintain comfort in the cabin, the
Stop/Start feature will not activate if any of the
following conditions exist:
The climate control system is in AUTO mode
(indicator illuminated), and the vehicle has yet
to reach the set temperature
The climate control system is in LO maximum
cooling
The climate control system is in HI maximum
heating
The climate control system is in the MAX-DEF
status
When the Stop/Start system is active, the engine
will restart if the inside temperature changes
significantly, or if the LO setting, or MAX-DEF
setting, is activated.
With the Stop/Start system on (engine is off), air
flow is reduced to keep the compartment comfort
conditions for longer.

To open the window part way (manually), push
the window switch down briefly and release. Push
past the detent to activate “continuous
automatic” operation.
If the button is pushed again, the window will stop
in the desired position.
Pull the window switch to the first detent to move
the window upward. Pull the window switch to the
second detent, and the window will go up
automatically.
To close the window, pull the window switch up.
To stop the window during Auto-Up operation,

AUTO-UP FEATURE WITH ANTI-PINCH
P
ROTECTION
The vehicle is equipped with an anti-pinch safety
device for closing the windows.
If the safety system senses any obstacle while
the window is closing, it will stop the window’s
movement and reverse it, depending on its
position. This device is also useful if the windows are
activated accidentally by children inside the
vehicle.
The anti-pinch safety function is activated both
during the manual and the automatic operation
of the window.
When the anti-pinch system is activated, the
window closing is immediately interrupted. Then
the window closing is automatically reversed and
the window lowers by about 8 inches (20 cm) in
relation to the first stop position. The window
cannot be operated during this time.

NOTE:
In the event of an error, or if the anti-pinch protec
-
tion is activated three consecutive times, the
automatic closing operation of the window will be
deactivated. In order to restore the correct opera -
tion of the system, the window must be lowered.
POWER WINDOW SYSTEM INITIALIZATION
If power supply is interrupted, the electric window
automatic operation must be reinitialized.
To perform the initialization procedure, which
must be done on each door with the doors closed,
manually fully close the window to be initialized.
WIND BUFFETING
Wind buffeting can be described as the
perception of pressure on the ears or a
helicopter-type sound in the ears. Your vehicle
may exhibit wind buffeting with the windows
down, or the sunroof (if equipped) in certain open
or partially open positions. This is a normal
occurrence and can be minimized. If the buffeting
occurs with the rear windows open, open the
front and rear windows together to minimize the buffeting. If the buffeting occurs with the sunroof
open, adjust the sunroof opening to minimize the
buffeting or open any window.
POWER SUNROOF —
IF EQUIPPED
POWER SUNROOF
The power sunroof consists of two glass panels
(the front one is power and the rear one fixed)
and is fitted with a power sunshade in the front,
as well as a manually operated sunshade in the
rear.
Operation of the sunroof is only possible with the
ignition placed in the ACC or ON/RUN position

CRUISE CONTROL
When engaged, the Cruise Control takes over
accelerator operations at speeds greater than
20 mph (32 km/h).Cruise Control On/Off Switch
The Cruise Control buttons are located on the left
side of the steering wheel.
While driving downhill, the system could brake
the vehicle to keep the set speed the same.

steering wheel.
The activation of the system is signaled by the
illumination of the white indicator light on the
instrument cluster.
Cruise Control Indicator Light
The Cruise Control function can remain active at
the same time as the Speed Limiter system. If the
set speed is higher than the speed set with the
Speed Limiter, the set speed will be lowered to
that of the Speed Limiter.
For Quadrifoglio vehicles, this function remains
available in RACE mode.

NOTE:
The system cannot be engaged in FIRST or
REVERSE gear. It is advisable to engage it in
THIRD gear or higher if using the AutoStick
feature.
To Set A Desired Speed
To set a desired speed, proceed as follows:
1. Turn the Cruise Control on.
2. When the vehicle has reached the desired speed, push the SET switch up or down and
release to activate. When the accelerator is
released, the vehicle will maintain the
selected speed automatically.
SET Switch Location
If needed (when overtaking for instance), you can
accelerate beyond the set speed by pressing the
accelerator. When you release the pedal, the
vehicle will return to the previously set speed.
WARNING!
Cruise Control can be dangerous where the
system cannot maintain a constant speed.
Your vehicle could go too fast for the
conditions, and you could lose control and
have an accident. Do not use Cruise Control in
heavy traffic or on roads that are winding, icy,
snow-covered or slippery.
WARNING!
Leaving the Cruise Control system on when
not in use is dangerous. You could accidentally
set the system or cause it to go faster than you
want. You could lose control and have an
accident. Always ensure the system is OFF
when you are not using it.
