chest and pelvis.9) Before putting on the front seat
belts, make sure that the
armrests are in vertical position
(see "Seat belts" paragraph).
10) Before unfastening the belts and
getting out of the vehicle, ensure
that the outer armrest (door side)
is fully raised.
11) All adjustments must be made
with the vehicle stationary. In
particular, while turning the seat,
take care that it does not interfere
with the handbrake lever.
12) Ensure the seat is locked in the
driving position before starting up
the vehicle.
13) Do not place heavy loads on the
flap with the vehicle in motion
because they could be thrown
against the vehicle occupants in
the event of sudden braking or
impacts, causing severe injury.
14) Do not travel with passengers
seated in the 3rd row with the
2nd row bench folded over. Do not
place objects of any type on the
backrest of the 2nd row bench
folded over: in the event of impact
or sharp braking they could be
thrown against the occupants of
the vehicle casing serious injury.

15) When refitting the bench, ensure
that it is correctly locked to the
floor guides.
IMPORTANT
2) The fabric upholstery of your
vehicle is designed to withstand
the normal wear and tear of your
vehicle for a long time. You are
however recommended to avoid
strong and/or continuous
scratching with clothing
accessories such as metal
buckles, studs, Velcro fastenings
and the like, as these items cause
stress of the cover fabric that
could lead to yarn breaking and
damage the upholstery.

CONTROLS
Air temperature
adjustment knob (I)
Turn the knob either clockwise or
counterclockwise to increase or lower
the requested temperature in the
passenger compartment.
The set temperature is shown on the
display.
Turn the knob either fully to the right or
fully to the left to the extreme HI or
LO position to turn the maximum
heating or maximum cooling functions
on:
❒HI function (maximum heating): select
by turning the temperature knob
clockwise beyond the maximum
value (32°C).
This function may be used to heat up
the passenger compartment by
exploiting the system's potential to the
full. In this event, the system stops
controlling the temperature
automatically and sets the air mixing to
maximum heating. The air speed and
distribution are fixed.
In particular, if the heating fluid is not
sufficiently hot, the maximum fan speed
does not come on straight away in
order to limit the intake of insufficiently
hot air to the passenger compartment.All manual settings will be allowed when
this function is on.
To switch the function off, simply turn
the temperature knob anticlockwise
and set the required temperature.
❒LO function (maximum cooling):
select by turning the temperature
knob anticlockwise beyond the
minimum value (16°C).
This function may be used to cool
down the passenger compartment by
exploiting the system's potential to
the full. In this event, the system stops
controlling the temperature
automatically and sets the air mixing to
maximum cooling. The air speed and
distribution are fixed. All manual
settings will be allowed when this
function is on.
To switch the function off, simply turn
the temperature knob anticlockwise
and set the required temperature.Air distribution buttons
(B)
By pressing these buttons, it is possible
to set one of the seven possible air
distributions manually:
Air flow to the windscreen and front
side window vents to demist or defrost
them.
Air flow to the central and side
dashboard vents to ventilate chest and
face during the hot season.
Air flow to the front and rear footwell
vents. Thanks to the natural tendency
of hot air to rise, this distribution pattern
allows the passenger compartment to
warm up as quickly as possible,
providing an immediate feeling of
warmth.
Air flow distributed between
footwell vents (hotter air) and central
and side dashboard vents (cooler air).
This distribution mode is particularly
useful in spring and autumn on sunny
days.
Air flow distributed between the
footwell vents and the windscreen
and front side window defrosting/
demisting vents. This allows an
adequate warming of the passenger
compartment and prevents the
windows from misting up.
