IMPORTANT The inside air recirculation system
makes it possible to reach the required “heating” or

AUTOMATIC TWO-ZONE CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM (where provided)
GENERAL
The car is fitted with a two-zone climate control
system which makes it possible to separately adjust the
air temperature on the driver’s side and on the
passenger’s side. Temperature control is based on the
“equivalent temperature” logic, i.e.: the system
continuously works to keep constant the comfort
inside the passenger compartment and to compensate
any variation of the outside climate conditions,
including sunshine detected by a proper sensor
provided for the purpose.
The climate control system automatically controls and
adjusts the following parameters and functions:
❒air temperature at driver/front passenger vents;
❒air distribution at driver/front passenger vents;
❒fan speed (continuous air flow variation);❒compressor switching on (to cool/dehumidify air);
❒air recirculation.
All the above functions can be changed manually at any
time, i.e.: you can always modify one or more function
settings. In this event, the system will no longer
implement the automatic control of the functions
changed manually (except for safety reasons, e.g.: risk
of window misting).
Manual selections prevail over automatic ones and
remain in storage until the user decides to resume
automatic control, except when the system cuts in for
particular safety conditions.
The control of functions not changed manually remains
automatic.
The amount of air admitted to the passenger
compartment does not depend on the car speed, since
it is electronically controlled by the fan.
In any case, the temperature of the air admitted to the
passenger compartment is controlled automatically
(except when the system is off) according to the
temperatures set on the driver’s and front passenger’s
displays or under certain climatic conditions if the
compressor is off).
