Set knob (E) to ….
This function is particularly 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 several people in the car to
prevent window steaming up.
IMPORTANT The inside air recirculation system
makes it possible to reach the required “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.

Air temperature
adjustment knobs H-N
Turning the knobs
clockwise or
counterclockwise,
highers or lowers the temperature of the air required
respectively in the left zone (knob N) or right zone
(knob H) of the passenger compartment.
It is possible to personalise required temperatures
(driver and passenger) with a maximum difference of 7
°C.
The temperatures set are shown on the displays near
the relevant knobs.
Pressing button A (MONO) automatically aligns the
temperature on the front passenger’s side with that on
the driver’s side. It is therefore possible to set the
same temperature between the two zones simply
turning the knob on the driver’s side (N).
This function is provided to simplify temperature
adjustment of the whole passenger compartment when
only the driver is on board.
Separate operation of the set temperatures is
automatically restored by turning knobs (H) or
pressing button A (MONO) again when the button led
is on.Turning the knobs clockwise or counterclockwise until
they reach the extreme selections HI or LO, the
maximum heating or cooling functions are respectively
engaged:
❒HI function (highest heating power):
this is activated by turning the temperature knob
clockwise above the max. value (32 °C). It can be
activated independently from the driver’s or
passenger’s side or both (also selecting the MONO
function).
This function can be engaged when requiring to heat
the passenger compartment 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 however possible with this
function on.
