activation button;
L - passenger side temperature
adjustment knob;
M - MONO function activation button
(alignment of set temperatures)

N - AUTO function activation button
(automatic operation).
DESCRIPTION
The automatic dual zone climate control
system regulates the air temperatures
in the passenger compartment in two
areas: driver side and passenger side.
The system maintains comfort inside
the passenger compartment and
compensates for possible variations in
external climate conditions.
NoteThe reference temperature is
22°C for optimal comfort management.
The automatically controlled
parameters and functions are:
❒air temperature at the driver's/front
passenger side vents;
❒air distribution at the driver's/front
passenger side vents;❒fan speed (continuous variation of the
air flow);
❒compressor engagement (for
cooling/dehumidifying the air);
❒air recirculation.
All these functions can be adjusted
manually by operating the system and
selecting one or more functions and
modifying their parameters. Automatic
control of the manually changed
functions will be suspended: the
system will only override the settings for
safety reasons.
Manual selections always have higher
priority than automatic settings and are
stored until the AUTO button is
pressed, except for cases in which the
system intervenes for safety reasons.
You can adjust one function manually
without affecting the automatic control
of the others. The amount of air
introduced into the passenger
compartment is not affected by vehicle
speed; it is electronically controlled
by a fan.
The temperature of the air sent is
always automatically controlled
according to the temperature set on the
display (except for when the system is
off or in certain conditions when the
compressor is not running).
2)
The system allows the following to be
set or adjusted manually:
❒driver's/passenger side air
temperature;
❒fan speed (continuous variation);
❒air distribution pattern with 7
positions;
❒compressor enabling;
❒rapid defrosting/demisting function;
❒air recirculation;
❒heated rear window;
❒system deactivation.
CLIMATE CONTROL
SYSTEM OPERATING
MODES
The climate control system can be
activated in different ways: it is
advisable to press the AUTO button
and turn the knobs to set the desired
temperatures.
In this way the system operates
completely automatically to adjust the
temperature, quantity and distribution
of the air introduced into the passenger
compartment. It also manages the air
recirculation system and the activation
of the air conditioning compressor.
29

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.

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.
