During fully automatic operation, the on-
ly manual settings required are the fol-
lowing:
❒MONO, to align the air temperature
and distribution set on the passenger’s
side (front or rear) with that on the
driver’s side;
❒ï, air recirculation, to keep it always
on or off;
❒-, to speed up demisting/defrosting
of windscreen, front side windows,
rear window and door mirrors;
❒(, to demist/defrost heated rear win-
dow and door mirrors.During full automatic system operation,
you can change at any time set tempera-
tures, air distribution and fan speed by us-
ing the relevant buttons or knobs: the sys-
tem will automatically change its settings
to adjust to the new requirements. Dur-
ing FULL AUTOoperation, changing air
distribution and/or flow and/or compres-
sor activation and/or air recirculation will
make the FULLwording disappear. In this
way functions will pass from automatic
control to manual control until pressing
again the AUTObutton. Fan speed is the
same for every area of the passenger com-
partment.
With one or more functions engaged man-
ually, the adjustment of the temperature
of the air admitted to the passenger com-
partment continues to be controlled au-
tomatically by the system, except with the
climate control compressor off: under this
condition in fact, the temperature of the
air admitted to the passenger compart-
ment cannot be lower than outside air
temperature.CONTROLS
Air temperature adjusting
knobs P-G
Turning the knobs clockwise or counter-
clockwise, respectively highers or lowers
the temperature of the air required re-
spectively in the front left zone (knob P)
or in the right zone (knob G) of the pas-
senger compartment.
Since the system controls two zones of
the passenger compartment, it is possi-
ble to personalise required temperatures
(driver and passenger).
The temperatures set are shown on the
displays near the relevant knobs.
Pressing button I (MONO) automatical-
ly aligns the temperature on the passen-
ger’s side with that on the driver’s side;
you can therefore set the same tempera-
ture for both zones by turning knob P on
driver side.
Separate operation of air temperatures
and distribution is restored by turning
knobs or pressing again button I
(MONO) when the button led is on.

AND CONTROLS
Turning the knobs fully clockwise or
counter-clockwise until they reach the ex-
treme selections HI or LO, the maximum
heating or cooling functions are respec-
tively engaged:
❒HI function (highest heating power):
this is turned on by rotating the temper-
ature knob clockwise and passing the max.
temperature value (32°C). It can be acti-
vated independently from driver or front
passenger side or both (also when the
MONOfunction is selected).
When this function is on, the display
shows HI.
This function can be engaged when re-
quiring to heat the passenger compart-
ment as quickly as possible, exploiting the
maximum potential of the system. This
function uses the maximum temperature
of the coolant fluid, while air distribution
and fan speed are controlled according to
the system settings.
More particularly, max. fan speed will not
be immediately engaged if coolant is not
hot enough; this to prevent admitting air
that is not warm enough to the passenger
compartment.
All manual settings are possible with this
function on.To switch the function off, simply turn the
knob counter-clockwise and set the re-
quired temperature.
❒LOfunction (highest cooling power):
this is turned on by rotating the temper-
ature knob counter-clockwise and passing
the min. temperature value (16°C). It can
be activated independently from driver or
front passenger side or both (also when
the MONOfunction is selected).
When this function is on, the display
shows LO.
This function can be engaged when re-
quiring to cool the passenger compart-
ment as quickly as possible, exploiting the
maximum potential of the system. This
function activates automatically:
❒MONOfunction;
❒air distribution at central / side vents
(shown by the relevant symbol on the
display);
❒fan at max. speed;
❒climate control compressor.
All manual settings are possible with this
function on.
To switch the function off, simply turn the
knob clockwise and set the required tem-
perature.Front air distribution buttons B-F
Pressing these buttons it is possible to
choose manually one of the seven possi-
ble air distributions to the passenger com-
partment (right or left side):
▲Air flow to the windscreen and front
side window vents to demist or de-
frost them.
˙Air flow at central and side dash-
board vents to ventilate the chest
and the face during the hot season.
▼Air flow towards the front and rear
lower parts of the passenger com-
partment. Due to the natural ten-
dency of heat to spread upwards,
this type of distribution allows heat-
ing of the passenger compartment
in the shortest time, also giving a
prompt feeling of warmth.
˙
▼Splitting of the air flow between the
vents to the lower part of the pas-
senger compartment (warmest air)
and the dashboard centre and side
outlets (coolest air). This air flow
distribution is particularly useful in
spring and autumn when the sun is
shining.

system that detects the presence of an ob-
stacle during sunroof closing stroke and
that cuts in by stopping and reversing the
sunroof stroke.
The anti-crushing safety system fitted on
the front curtain outline is active along the
whole closing range of the curtain and cuts
into operation when an obstacle is met.
This safety device guarantees the rever-
sal for a short section.

❒within 5 seconds, press and keep knob
A pressed; the sunroof will move au-
tomatically, during this stage keep on
pressing the knob;
❒initialisation will end when the sunroof
stops.
When leaving the car, the ig-
nition key should be removed
to prevent the sunroof from being op-
erated inadvertently and harming any-
one remaining in the car. Improper use
of the sunroof can be dangerous. Be-
fore and during its operation ensure
that any passengers are not at risk
from the moving roof either by per-
sonal objects getting caught in the
mechanism or by being injured by it di-
rectly.
