DESCRIPTION
The automatic dual zone climate control system
regulates the air temperatures in the passenger
compartment in two zones: driver side and
passenger side.
The system maintains comfort inside the passenger
compartment and compensates for possible
variations in external climate conditions.The climate control system can recognise extremely
cold (or extremely hot) conditions in the passenger
compartment and consequently provide optimal
management of the system’s capabilities.
NoteThe reference temperature is 22°C for
optimal comfort management.
The automatically controlled parameters and
functions are:
❒air temperature at the driver/front passenger side
vents;
❒air distribution at the driver/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, selecting one or more
functions and modifying their parameters.
Automatic control of the functions will be
suspended: the system will only override the settings
for safety reasons.
Manual selections always take priority over automatic
ones and are stored until the AUTO button is
pressed or the system itself intervenes for specific
safety reasons.

The amount of air introduced into the passenger
compartment is not affected by car speed; it is
regulated by the fan, which is controlled
electronically.
The air temperature 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).
The system allows the following to be set or adjusted
manually:
❒driver/passenger side air temperature;
❒fan speed (continuous variation);
❒air distribution to 7 positions;
❒compressor enablement;
❒rapid defrosting/demisting function;
❒air recirculation;
❒heated rear window;
❒system deactivation.
The climate control system detects the
passenger compartment temperature
using a mean radiant temperature sensor
located in the interior rear view mirror and
protected by a specific cover. Obstructing the
field of view of this sensor with any object could
cause the climate control system to operate
with less than optimal efficiency.SWITCHING ON THE CLIMATE
CONTROL SYSTEM
The climate control system can be switched on 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
function and the activation of the air conditioning
compressor.
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 completely automatic operation (AUTO),
varying the air flow and/or distribution (which are
not displayed) causes the AUTO function LED
to disappear and the system to operate in MANUAL
mode (displaying both the flow and distribution
requested).
When the compressor is deactivated, the AUTO
operation remains active only if the system can
guarantee in-car comfort. Otherwise, the system
switches to MANUAL mode (the set temperatures
will flash on the display). The fan speed is the same in
all the zones of the passenger compartment.

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 deactivate the MAX-DEF
function.
Selecting the footwell/windscreen or only windscreen
distribution activates the climate control system
compressor (LED on A/C button on) and the air
recirculation is set to "outside air" intake (LED on
button off ).
This logic guarantees optimum visibility at the
windows. It is, however, always possible to manage
air recirculation and the climate control system
compressor manually.
HEATED REAR WINDOW
DEMISTING/DEFROSTING
Press the
button to activate heated rear window
demisting/defrosting.
The effective activation of the function is indicated by
the
warning light on the instrument panel
switching on.
This function switches off automatically 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 the
button to activate demisting/defrosting of door
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.
Heated windscreen
(for versions/markets, where provided)
Press button C
to activate this function.
When the function is active, a warning light
on
the instrument panel is on.
For versions/markets where provided, press the C
button to activate also demisting/defrosting of
windscreen (with engine running only) and heated
door mirrors (for versions/markets, where provided).
This function is timed and switches off automatically
after 4 minutes for the windscreen and 20 minutes
for the rear window and door mirrors. Press button
C again to disable the function in advance.

"Smart washing" function
Pull the lever towards the steering wheel (unstable
position) to activate the windscreen washer.
Keeping the stalk pulled for more than half a second,
with just one movement it is possible to operate
the washer jet and the wiper at the same time.
The wiper stops working three strokes after the
stalk is released.
A further stroke after approximately six seconds
completes the wiping cycle (for versions/markets,
where provided).
RAIN SENSOR
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This is located behind the interior rear view mirror,
in contact with the windscreen fig. 47 and can detect
the presence of rain and, consequently, manage the
cleaning of the windscreen in accordance with the
amount of water on the screen.
The sensor has an adjustment range that varies
progressively from wiper still (no stroke) when the
windscreen is dry, to wiper at 2
nd
continuous speed
(fast continuous operation) with intense rain.
Activation
The sensor is activated when the ring nut A fig. 46 is
turned to
position: the windscreen wiper stroke
frequency is thus adjusted in accordance with the
amount of water on the windscreen.The activation of the sensor is signalled by a "stroke"
to show that the command has been acquired.
The sensitivity of the rain sensor can be adjusted
through the Setup menu (see paragraph "Menu
Items" in this section).
The variation in sensitivity during rain sensor
operation is also signalled by a stroke of the wipers.
This stroke is also executed with the windscreen dry.
IMPORTANT Keep the glass in the sensor area
clean.
If the windscreen washer is used with the rain sensor
activated, the normal washing cycle is performed,
after which the rain sensor resumes its normal
automatic operation.
