Preventive demisting procedure
In the event of considerable outside mois-
ture and/or rain and/or considerable dif-
ferences in temperature inside and out-
side the passenger compartment, perform
the following preventive demisting proce-
dure:
❒air recirculation off (button led Toff);
❒knob Aturned to red section;
❒turn knob Cto 2ndspeed;
❒turn knob Eto -or to ≤if the win-
dows do not demist.

DEMISTING/DEFROSTING
Pressing button
(turns on this function
which is shown by the turning on of the
led on the button
(.
This function is timed and switches off au-
tomatically after 20 minutes. To cut out
this function press again button
(.
IMPORTANT Do not apply stickers on
the inside of the rear window over the
heating filaments to avoid damage that
might cause it to stop working properly.FAN SPEED ADJUSTMENT
To ventilate the passenger’s compartment
properly, proceed as follows:
❒Central and side vents: completely
open;
❒Knob pointer Aon blue section;
❒knob pointer Con required speed;
❒Knob pointer Eto ¥;
❒air recirculation off (button led Toff).
AIR RECIRCULATION
Pressing button
Tturns on this func-
tion which is shown by the turning on of
the led on the button. This function is par-
ticularly useful when the outside air is
heavily polluted (in a traffic jam, tunnel,
etc.). However, it is better not to use it
for long periods, especially if there are sev-
eral people in the car.
IMPORTANT The inside air recirculation
system makes it possible to reach the re-
quired “heating” or “cooling” conditions
faster. Do not use the air recirculation
function on rainy/cold days as it would
considerably increase the possibility of the
windows misting inside.SUPPLEMENTARY HEATER
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This device heats up the passenger com-
partment more rapidly in cold weather
conditions with the engine coolant tem-
perature very low.
The additional heater is activated auto-
matically by starting the engine, turning
knob Ato the last red sector and oper-
ating the fan (knob C) on at least first
speed.
The radiator is turned off automatically
when conditions of comfort are achieved.
IMPORTANT heater activation is pre-
vented if the battery voltage is too low.

not to use it for long periods, especially
if there are several people in the car.
IMPORTANT The inside air recirculation
system makes it possible to reach the re-
quired “heating” or “cooling” conditions
faster. Do not use the air recirculation
function on rainy/cold days as it would
considerably increase the possibility of the
windows misting inside.CLIMATE CONTROL (cooling)
