•Heated rear window
•System deactivation
NOTE:The Climate Control system detects the passenger
compartment temperature using a temperature sensor
located in the interior rearview mirror and protected by a
specific cover. Obstructing the field of view of this sensor
with any object could cause the climate control system to
operate with less than optimal efficiency.
Turning On The Climate Control System
The Climate Control system can be turned on in different
ways: it is recommended to push the AUTO button and
turn the Temperature Control knobs to set the desired
temperatures.
The system operates automatically to adjust the tempera-
ture, quantity and distribution of the air introduced into
the passenger compartment. It also manages the air
recirculation function and the activation of the air condi-
tioning compressor.
During automatic operation, you can change the set
temperatures, air distribution and blower speed at any
time by using the relevant buttons or knobs: the system
will automatically change the settings to adjust to the
new requirements.
During automatic operation (AUTO), varying the air
flow and/or distribution (which are not displayed)
causes the AUTO function LED to turn off and the system
to operate in MANUAL mode (displaying both the flow
and distribution requested).
When the compressor is deactivated, the AUTO opera-
tion remains active only if the system can guarantee
in-car comfort. Otherwise, the system changes to

MANUAL mode (the set temperatures will flash on the
display). The blower speed is the same in all the zones of
the passenger compartment.
Adjusting The Air Temperature
Rotate the Driver Temperature Control, or the Passenger
Temperature Control, dial clockwise or counter-
clockwise, to adjust the air temperature in the front left
(Driver Temperature Control) or right (Passenger Tem-
perature Control) zone of the passenger compartment.
The set temperatures are shown on the displays.
Push the SYNC button to align the air temperature
between the two zones.
Turn the Passenger Temperature Control knob to return
to the separate management of air temperatures in the
two zones.
Turning the control knobs completely in one direction or
the other activates the#HI#(maximum heating) or#LO#
(maximum cooling) functions respectively.
To deactivate these functions, turn the temperature knob
to the desired temperature.
Air Distribution Selection
By pushing the Mode Control buttons (Defrost/Panel/
Floor buttons), it is possible to set one of the seven
possible air distributions manually by activating one or
more mode buttons:
•Defrost Mode – Air flow to the windshield and front
side window diffusers to defrost them. Use Defrost
mode with maximum temperature settings for best
windshield and side window defrosting. When the
defrost mode is selected, the blower will automatically
default to medium-high.

To restore automatic control of the air distribution after a
manual selection, push the AUTO button.
Adjusting The Fan Speed
Rotate the Blower Control knob to increase/decrease the
fan speed.
The speed is indicated by the eight Blower Control
Indicator LEDs, located above the Blower Control knob,
turning on.
•Maximum blower speed = all LEDs illuminated
•Minimum blower speed = one LED illuminated
The blower can only be turned off if the A/C compressor
has been turned off by pushing the A/C Control button.
NOTE:To restore automatic control of the fan speed after
a manual adjustment, push the AUTO button.
AUTO Button
When the AUTO button is pushed (LED illuminated), the
Climate Control system automatically adjusts the follow-
ing settings in the corresponding zones:
•Quantity and distribution of the air introduced into the
passenger compartment.
•Climate Control system compressor.
•Air Recirculation.
Cancelling all previous manual adjustments.
This is indicated by the AUTO button LED turning on.
If the AUTO button is pushed when the AUTO LED is on,
the system changes to manual mode; it displays the
current flow and distribution status, which will no longer
be managed automatically.

If a manual adjustment is made to the air distribution, the
A/C button or the blower speed, the LED turns off to
indicate that the system is no longer controlling all
functions automatically.
NOTE:If the system can no longer maintain the tempera-
ture set in either passenger compartment zone, the set
temperature value will flash for a few seconds on the
display.
To restore automatic system control after one or more
manual adjustments, push the AUTO button.
SYNC Button
Push the “SYNC” button (LED illuminated) to correlate
the passenger side air temperature with that of the driver
side.
This function makes temperature regulation easier when
the driver is travelling alone.
Turn the Passenger Temperature Control knob to set the
passenger side temperature and return to separate air
temperature management.
Air Recirculation
The Air Recirculation is managed by the following:
•Forced activation (air recirculation always on): indi-
cated by the LED on the Recirculation Control button.
•Forced deactivation (air recirculation always off, air
intake from the outside), signalled by the LED on the
Recirculation Control button switching off.
Forced activation/deactivation can be selected by push-
ing the Recirculation Control button.
When the On/Off button is pushed, the Climate Control
system automatically activates internal air recirculation
(LED on Recirculation Control button on).

MAX A/C
MAX A/C sets the system for maximum cooling perfor-
mance.
Rotate the driver temperature control adjust knob
counter-clockwise for MAX A/C. Both driver and pas-
senger temperature displays will show MAX A/C LO.
In MAX A/C, the blower speed and mode position can be
adjusted to desired user settings. Pressing other settings
will cause the MAX A/C operation to switch to the
selected setting and MAX A/C to exit.
Rapid Window Demisting (MAX-Defrost function)
Push the MAX-defrost button to activate (LED on) the
windshield and side window demisting function.
The Climate Control system carries out the following
operations:
•Turns on the air conditioning compressor when envi-
ronmental conditions are suitable.
•Turns air recirculation off.
•Sets fan speed according to the engine coolant tem-
perature.
•Directs air flow to windshield and front side window
diffusers.
•Activates the heated rear window defrost.
•Activates the heated windshield (if equipped).
•Displays the fan speed (Blower Control Indicator LED
illuminated).
