GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR

“Anti-Whiplash” device
The head restraints are equipped with
an “Anti-Whiplash” device, which
reduces the distance between head
and head restraint in the event of a rear
impact, thus mitigating the “whiplash”
effect.
The head restraint may move when the
backrest is pressed by the occupant's
torso or hand: this behaviour is caused
by the system and should not be
considered a malfunction.
REAR
Two height-adjustable head restraints
are provided for the back seats (for the
adjustment see the previous
paragraph).
On some versions a head restraint is
also provided for the central seat.
Proceed as follows to remove the head
restraints:
❒raise the head restraints to their
maximum height;
❒press buttons A and B fig. 17, then
remove the head restraints by pulling
them upwards.
WARNING
9) The head restraints must be
adjusted so that the head, rather
than the neck, rests on them. Only
in this case they can protect your
head correctly.
STEERING WHEELIt can be adjusted axially and vertically.
To adjust, release the lever by pushing it
forwards (position 1 fig. 18) and adjust

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR

During automatic operation, you can
change the set temperatures, air
distribution and fan speed at any time
by using the relevant buttons or knobs:
the system will automatically change
the settings to adjust to the new
requirements.
During fully automatic operation
(AUTO), the word AUTO will disappear
if the air distribution and/or flow rate
and/or engagement of the compressor
and/or recirculation settings are
changed.
During fully automatic operation (FULL
AUTO), the word FULL will disappear
if the air distribution and/or flow rate
and/or activation of the compressor
and/or recirculation settings are
changed.
In this way the climate control system
will continue to automatically manage
all functions except for those that have
been manually adjusted. The fan speed
is the same in all the zones of the
passenger compartment.ADJUSTING THE AIR
TEMPERATURE
Turn knob A or L to the right or left to
adjust the air temperature: knob A
for the front left area, knob L for the
front right area of the passenger
compartment. The set temperatures are
shown on the displays.
Press the MONO button to align the air
temperature between the two areas.
Turn knob L to return to the separate
management of air temperatures in the
two areas.
Turn the knobs fully right or left to
engage HI (maximum heating) or LO
(maximum cooling) respectively. To
deactivate these functions, turn the
temperature knob to the desired
temperature.
SETTING THE AIR
DISTRIBUTION
By pressing the buttons (
/
/
), it
is possible to set one of the 7 possible
air distributions manually:
Air flow to the windscreen and
front side window diffusers to
demist/defrost them.Air flow at central and side
dashboard vents to ventilate the
chest and the face during the hot
season.
Air flow to the front and rear
footwell diffusers. This air
distribution setting heats the
passenger compartment most
quickly, giving a prompt sensation
of warmth.
Air flow distributed between
footwell vents (hotter air) and
central and side dashboard
vents (cooler air). This
distribution setting is useful in
spring and autumn on sunny
days.Air flow distributed between
footwell diffusers and
windscreen and front side
window defrosting/demisting
diffusers. This distribution
setting allows the passenger
compartment to warm up
efficiently and prevents the
windows from misting up.Air flow distribution between
windscreen demisting/
defrosting diffusers and side
and central dashboard vents.
This allows air to be sent to
the windscreen in conditions of
strong sunlight.
Air flow distribution to all
vents on the car.
30
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR

In AUTO mode, the climate control
system automatically manages air
distribution (the LEDs on buttons H are
off). When set manually, the air
distribution is shown by the LEDs on
the selected buttons.
In combined function mode the relevant
function is enabled simultaneously
with those already set by pressing the
corresponding button. If a button
whose function is already active is
pressed, its operation is cancelled and
the corresponding LED switches off.
To restore automatic control of the
air distribution after a manual selection,
press the AUTO button.
ADJUSTING THE FAN
SPEED
Turn knob F to increase/decrease the
fan speed. The speed is indicated
by the LEDs G on knob F switching on.
❒maximum fan speed = all LEDs lit;
❒minimum fan speed = one LED lit.
The fan can only be excluded if the
climate control compressor has been
switched off by pressing button C.
IMPORTANT To restore automatic
control of the fan speed after a manual
adjustment, press the AUTO button.AUTO BUTTON
By pressing the AUTO button (LED on
button lit) the climate control system
automatically adjusts the following
settings in the corresponding zones:
❒quantity and distribution of the air
introduced into the passenger
compartment;
❒climate control compressor;
❒air recirculation
❒cancelling any previous manual
settings.
This is indicated by the LED on the
AUTO button switching on.
By manually adjusting at least one of
the functions automatically managed by
the system (air recirculation, air
distribution, fan speed or switching off
the air conditioner compressor), the
LED will switch off, indicating that the
climate control system is no longer
automatically controlling all the
functions.
IMPORTANT Should the system no
longer be able to guarantee the
required temperature set in various
passenger compartment zones, the set
temperature value will flash for a few
seconds.To restore automatic system control
after one or more manual adjustments,
press the AUTO button.
MONO BUTTON
Press the MONO button (LED on
button lit) to align the passenger side air
temperature with that of the driver
side.
This function makes temperature
regulation easier when the driver is
travelling alone.
Turn knob L to set the passenger side
temperature and return to separate
air temperature management.
AIR RECIRCULATION AND
ENABLEMENT OF AQS
FUNCTION (Air Quality
System)
The air recirculation is managed
according to the following operating
logics:
❒automatic activation: text A on button
B lit;
❒forced activation (inside air
recirculation always on): indicated by
the LED on button
and text A
off;
31

❒forced deactivation (air recirculation
always off, air drawn in from the
outside): indicated by the LED on
buttons
switching off and text A
on button B off.
Forced activation/deactivation can be
selected by pressing button
.
When the
button is pressed (button
E off), the climate control system
automatically activates internal air
recirculation (LED on
button A
on). It is still possible to activate outside
air recirculation (LED on the button off)
and vice versa, by pressing button
.
The AQS (Air Quality System) function
cannot be activated when the
button
is pressed (LED on button E off).
AQS (Air Quality System)
function activation
The AQS function automatically
activates internal air recirculation when
the outside air is polluted (e.g. in traffic
queues and tunnels).IMPORTANT With the AQS function
active, after a preset time interval of the
internal air recirculation system
functioning, the climate control system
enables the intake of outside air for
approximately one minute to change
the air in the passenger compartment.
This takes place regardless of the
pollution level of the outside air.
IMPORTANT The engagement of the
recirculation system makes it possible
to reach the required heating/cooling
conditions faster. It is, however,
inadvisable to use it on rainy/cold days
as it would considerably increase the
possibility of the windows misting
up inside (especially if the climate
control system is off). When the outside
temperature is low, recirculation is
forced off (air drawn in from the outside)
to prevent the windows from misting
up.
In automatic operation, recirculation is
managed automatically by the system
according to outside environmental
conditions.
IMPORTANT It is advisable not to use
the air recirculation function when
the outside temperature is low to
prevent the windows from rapidly
misting up.CLIMATE CONTROL
COMPRESSOR
Press button C to activate/deactivate
the compressor (activation is indicated
by the lit LED on the button). The
system remembers that the
compressor has been switched off,
even after the engine has stopped.
When the compressor is switched off
the system deactivates air recirculation
to prevent the windows from misting
up and deactivates the AQS function.
In this case, although the climate
control system is capable of
maintaining the required temperature,
the AUTO LED switches off. The
temperatures will flash for a few
seconds if the required temperature
cannot be maintained.
To restore automatic control of
compressor engagement, press again
button C or the AUTO button.
With compressor off:
❒if the outside temperature is higher
than the set one, the system will
not be able to satisfy the request.
The temperature values will then flash
on the display for a few seconds to
indicate this;
❒the fan speed can be reset manually.
32
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR

With the compressor on and the engine
running, manual ventilation cannot be
lower than the minimum speed (only
one LED lit).
IMPORTANT With the compressor off,
air cannot be introduced to the
passenger compartment with
a temperature lower than the outside
temperature. Moreover, under certain
environmental conditions, windows
could mist up rapidly since the air is not
dehumidified.
RAPID WINDOW
DEMISTING/DEFROSTING
(MAX-DEF function)
Press the
button to activate (LED
on button on) the windscreen and side
windows demisting/defrosting function.
The climate control system carries out
the following operations:
❒switches on the air conditioning
compressor when climatic conditions
are suitable;
❒deactivates air recirculation;
❒sets maximum air temperature (HI) in
both zones;
❒sets fan speed according to the
engine coolant temperature;
❒directs air flow to windscreen and
front side windows diffusers;❒activates the heated rear window.
❒displays the fan speed (LED G lit).
IMPORTANT The MAX-DEF function
remains on for about 3 minutes from
when the engine coolant reaches the
appropriate temperature.
When the function is activated, the LED
on the AUTO button switches off.
With the function activated the only
possible manual adjustments are
adjusting the fan speed and turning the
heated rear window off.
When the B, C,
or AUTO buttons
are pressed, the climate control system
will turn the MAX-DEF off.

after about 20 minutes or when the
engine is turned off. It is not switched
on automatically the next time the
engine is started.
For versions/markets where provided,
press thebutton to activate
demisting/defrosting of exterior rear
view mirrors and heated nozzles (for
versions/markets, where provided).IMPORTANT Do not affix stickers to the
inside of the heated rear window over
the heating filaments, to avoid damage
that might cause them to stop working
properly.
Thermal comfort
windscreen
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Some versions feature a thermal
comfort windscreen which, with the car
exposed to the sun, reduces the
temperature in the passenger
compartment relative to the outside
temperature, thus ensuring greater
comfort.
Humidity sensor
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The humidity sensor helps to prevent
the windows from misting up. For
full functionality, it is advisable to
activate the AUTO function (LED N on).
When the outside temperature is low,
the system could automatically turn the
compressor on and turn air recirculation
off for safer driving.
