SWITCHING THE CLIMATE
CONTROL SYSTEM ON
The system can be started in different
ways, but it is advisable to press the AU-
TO button and then to turn the knob to
set the temperatures required on the dis-
play.
This way the system will start working
completely automatically to reach the
comfort temperature as quickly as possi-
ble. The system will set air temperature,
quantity and distribution and it will con-
trol the air recirculation function and the
activation of conditioner compressor.During fully automatic operation, the on-
ly manual settings required are the fol-
lowing:
❒Òair recirculation, to keep it always
on or off;
❒Zto speed up demisting/defrosting of
windscreen, front side windows, rear
window and door mirrors;
During full automatic system operation,
you can change at any time set tempera-
ture, 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. During FULL AUTO operation, changing
air distribution and/or flow and/or com-
pressor activation and/or air recirculation
will make the FULL wording disappear. In
this way functions will pass from automatic
control to manual control until pressing
again the AUTO button. With one or
more functions engaged manually, the ad-
justment of the temperature of the air ad-
mitted to the passenger compartment
continues to be controlled automatically
by the system, except with the climate
control compressor off: under this condi-
tion in fact, the temperature of the air ad-
mitted to the passenger compartment
cannot be lower than outside air temper-
ature.

Air distribution
buttons (B)
Pressing these buttons it
is possible to choose manually one of the
seven possible air distributions:
▲Air flow to the windscreen and front
side window vents to demist or de-
frost them.
˙Air flow at central and side dashboard
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 tenden-
cy of heat to spread upwards, this type
of distribution allows heating of the
passenger compartment in the short-
est 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 dis-
tribution is particularly useful in spring
and autumn when the sun is shining.
▲Splitting of the air flow between the ▼windscreen and front side window
demisting/defrosting vents and the
lower part of the passenger compart-
ment. This type of air distribution al-
lows satisfactory heating of the pas-
senger compartment while preventing
possible misting of the windows.
▲Splitting of the air flow between the ˙windscreen and front side window
demisting/defrosting vents and the
dashboard centre and side outlets.
This air flow distribution enables to
obtain satisfactory cooling of the pas-
senger's compartment and to keep the
required cooling condition in summer.
▲Splitting of the air flow between the ˙windscreen and front side window ▼demisting/defrosting vents, dashboard
centre and side outlets and the lower
part of the passenger compartment.
This air flow distribution enables to
keep good overall comfort conditions
both in summer and in winter.
Lighting up of the relevant button leds
shows the type of air distribution select-
ed.
To restore automatic air distribution con-
trol after a manual selection, press button
AUTO.
