STORING THE DRIVER’S SEAT
POSITIONS (fig. 46)
The system allows to store and
recall three different driver’s seat
positions and external rear view mir-
ror positions.
Seat position memorization also
includes the head restraint adjust-
ment in height, the position of the
external rear view mirrors and of the
steering wheel (only versions with
electric adjustment).
The seat, external rear view mirror
and steering wheel positions can
only be stored when the ignition key
is at MAR.Adjust the position of the seat,
head restraint, external rear view
mirrors and steering wheel by means
of the relevant controls, then press
for about 3 seconds any of buttons
“1”, “2” or “3” each corresponding
to one stored position, until a confir-
mation beep is heard.
When memorising the seat posi-
tions, also the head restraint, electric
rear view mirror and steering wheel
positions are memorised.
The previously stored position will
automatically be deleted when a new
position is stored under the same
button.
IMPORTANTSeat position mem-
orization does not include lumbar
adjustment and heating actuation.
Recalling stored positions
With the key in position MAR, any
stored position can be recalled by
briefly pressing the respective but-
ton “1”, “2” or “3”. The seat will
move automatically and stop in the
stored position.

L0A0152b

63
Stored position are recalled only if
the required position is different
from the current one and is not pos-
sible when the car speed exceeds 10
km/h.
Seats can be moved only when the
ignition key is at MARand, for
about 1 minute, also after removing
the key or turning it to STOP: dur-
ing this time, the external rear view
mirrors will not move, but when the
car is started again, they will be
automatically realigned together
with the seat position (see paragraph
“Automatic realignment of external
rear view mirrors”).
If stored seat position recalling is
still in course after this time has
elapsed, recalling will be concluded
in any case.If the engine is started during the
recalling stage, seat moving will be
stopped; once this stage is over the
seat will return automatically to the
stored position.
IMPORTANTPressing any of
memorisation or adjustment buttons
during the recalling stage, causes the
immediate stop of the seat (antipan-
ic mode).
Storing the “parking” position of
the external rear view mirror on
passenger side
You can achieve better visibility
during manoeuvres in reverse gear
(for instance, when parking the car)
by adjusting the external passenger
rear view mirror to a different posi-
tion from the one normally used.
This position can be stored by the
driver.To store the position proceed as
follows:
– with the car stopped and the igni-
tion key at MAR, engage the reverse
gear;
– adjust the position of the external
passenger rear view mirror by means
of the respective controls so as to
obtain the optimum position for the
parking manoeuvre;
– press down for at least 3 seconds
any of buttons “1”, “2” or “3” (fig.
46) used to store/recall the seat posi-
tion;
– together with the “parking” posi-
tion of the external passenger side
rear view mirror, also the seat posi-
tion, the driver rear view mirror
position and the driving position of
the external passenger side rear view
mirror are stored.
A sound signal warns the driver
that the mirror position has been
stored.

Recalling the “parking” position
of the external rear view mirror
on passenger side
To automatically recall the “park-
ing” position of the external passen-
ger rear view mirror, proceed as fol-
lows:
– with the car stopped and the igni-
tion key at MAR, engage the reverse
gear; the mirror will be automatical-
ly brought back to the previously
stored position .
If no “parking” position has been
stored, when engaging reverse the
passenger mirror slightly lowers
than normally to a preset position to
facilitate the driver during parking.
The rear view mirror will automat-
ically return to its initial position
after about 10 seconds from reverse
gear disengagement, or immediately
after exceeding a speed of 10 km/h
with forward gear. IMPORTANTThe “parking” posi-
tion memorisation and recall can
only be performed with ignition key
at MAR.
Automatic realignment
of external rear view mirrors
Every time the ignition key is
turned to MAR, the external rear
view mirrors automatically return to
the latest position reached and/or
recalled before removing the key.
This enables rear view mirror
alignment if, when the car is parked,
one of the rear view mirror has been
manually and/or accidentally
moved.COMFORT SEATS (fig. 47)
Button Aon front Comfort Seats
enables to actuate the respective con-
trols separately. When pressing the
button of each of the two seats, the
respective CONNECT menu is actu-
ated; this menu makes it possible,
through its various options, to define
the heating levels and actuate venti-
lation, massage and the adaptive
function for each of the two seats.
The Comfort controls can also be
actuated by pressing the “Setup” key
of the CONNECT and then selecting
the “Seat Comfort” function.
To actuate these settings, refer to
the CONNECT supplement provid-
ed with the car.
IMPORTANTNever turn the pas-
senger massage function on when
the seat is not occupied since the
occupant sensor could activate (in
the event of an accident) the rele-
vant air bag.

Automatically adjustable (fig. 61)
The mirror is automatically set to
day and night position, irrespective-
ly of exterior lights.
The mirror sets always in day posi-
tion when engage the reverse gear.EXTERNAL REARVIEW
MIRRORS
External rearview mirrors have flat
surface and can be heated and
adjusted automatically when the
ignition key is at MAR.

IMPORTANTRearview mirror
surface is flat to make objects seem
at their actual distance. If the mirrors make it
difficult to get through
narrow gaps and in auto-
matic car washes, fold them from
position 1 to position 2 (fig. 64).Automatic rearview mirror
realignment
Rearview mirror position is stored,
together with the steering wheel
position, when storing the driver’s
seat position. Each time the ignition
key is turned to MAR, rearview mir-
rors return automatically to the last
position reached and/or recalled at
the previous ignition key removal.
This enables rearview mirror align-
ment if, when the car is parked, one
of the rearview mirror has been
manually and/or accidentally
moved.
Storing the “parking” position of
the right-hand rearview mirror
When storing the driver’s seat posi-
tions, it is possible to store also the
“parking” position of the right-hand
rearview mirror. Stored position is
recalled automatically when engag-
ing the reverse gear. For further
information about rearview mirror
“parking” position storing and
recalling, see paragraph “Front
seats” in this chapter.

HOW TO USE THE CLIMATE
CONTROL SYSTEM
The system can be switched on in
various ways. We recommend start-
ing by pressing the AUTObutton
and setting the required tempera-
tures on the display.
Since the system controls three
areas of the passenger compartment,
the driver and the front/back pas-
sengers can select different tempera-
ture values, with a maximum differ-
ence accepted by the system of 7 °
C.
In this way, the system will start
working fully automatically to reach
the required temperature as soon as
possible. It will maintain the tem-
perature by adjusting the amount
and distribution pattern of the air let
into the passenger compartment and
manage the recirculation function
and the climate control system com-
pressor.When the system is working auto-
matically, the only possible manual
functions are:
– MONO, to align air temperature
and distribution on the passenger
side or in the back-seat passengers’
area with that on the driver side;
– REAR, to activate the back con-
trol panel;
– √, to switch off the compressor:
in these conditions the system works
only as a heater;
– air recirculation, to keep recircu-
lation always turned on or off;
–-, for faster defrosting/demist-
ing the front windows, rear window,
external rearview mirrors and wind-
screen wiper nozzles;
– (,for defrosting/demisting the
heated rear window and external
rearview mirrors.The temperature, air distribution
and fan speed settings can be
changed at any time during auto-
matic system operation. The system
will automatically adjust to the new
request. When the system is fully
working in automatic mode (FULL
AUTO), if air distribution and/or
flow is changed, definition FULL
disappears. In this way functions
pass from the automatic mode to the
manual mode, until button AUTOis
pressed again. There is only one fan
speed for all the passenger compart-
ment areas and it can be changed
also by operating back controls,
when activated.
With one or more functions manu-
ally on, the air temperature let into
the passenger compartment is auto-
matically managed by the system
unless the climate control compres-
sor is off. In this condition, in fact,
the air inlet into the passenger com-
partment cannot have a lower tem-
perature than that of the external
air.

159
The air let into the passenger com-
partment cannot be cooled when the
compressor is off. Consequently:
– if the outside temperature is
lower than the set temperature, the
system works normally and can
reach and maintain the set tempera-
ture also when the compressor is off;
– if the outside temperature is
higher than the set temperature, the
system cannot reach the required
temperature. This will be signalled
by flashing the external temperature
value on the display.
When the compressor is off, it is
possible to reset manually the fan
speed; on the contrary, when the
compressor is on and the engine is
running, manual ventilation cannot
be lower than the bar indicated on
the display. Button for fast windscreen
demisting/defrosting (15 fig. 121)
Press this button: the climate con-
trol system will automatically switch
on all the functions required for fast
windscreen and side window demist-
ing/defrosting, that is:
– climate control system compres-
sor on;
– air recirculation off (if on);
– maximum air temperature (HI)
on both displays;
– fan speed according to engine
coolant temperature in order to limit
letting cold air into the passenger
compartment for demisting the win-
dows;
– air flow directed to the wind-
screen and front side window vents;
– heated rear window, external
rearview mirror and windscreen noz-
zle resistances on.The fast windscreen demisting/
defrosting function stays on for
approx. 3 minutes after the engine
coolant temperature exceeds 50 °C
(petrol versions) or 35 °C (diesel
versions).
When the fast demisting/defrosting
function is on, the led on the related
button and that on the heated rear
window button are lighted, while
both leds on the air recirculation
button and that on button √turn
off. Message FULL AUTOon the
display will turn off.
Only the fan speed can be adjusted
and the heated rear window can be
switched off when the fast demist-
ing/defrosting function is on.
Press the fast demisting/defrosting
button again or air recirculation
button or compressor off button to
switch the fast demisting/defrosting
function off and reset the previous
system operation conditions as well
as the last set function.

tem off, keep pressed for at least two
seconds the fan button 14 (fig. 121)
on the front control panel or button
7 (fig. 122) on the rear control
panel; all the fan bars on the display
turn off and the message OFFwill
be displayed. The right led on the air
recirculation button will come on.
The climate control system condi-
tions when the system is off are:
– air recirculation and compressor
off button leds off;
– set temperature displays off;
– air recirculation on, thus isolating
the passenger compartment;
– climate control system compres-
sor off;
– fan off.
The heated rear window can be
switched on and off normally when
the system is off.IMPORTANTThe windows may
mist up fast when the climate con-
trol system is off and in certain envi-
ronmental conditions.
The climate control system elec-
tronic control unit stores the system
settings made before the system was
switched off and restores them as
soon as a button is pressed (with the
exception of the heated rear window
button). The function which the
button corresponds to will be
switched on, if it was off when the
system was switched off. It will be
kept if, on the other hand, it was on
when the system was switched off.
Press the AUTObutton to switch
the climate control system back on
and ensure a totally automatic con-
trol.

FUEL CUT-OFF SWITCH AND
CIRCUIT BREAKER
The car is fitted with two safety
switches that come into operation in
the case of an accident to block fuel
supply and power, thereby stopping
the engine and the car electric utili-
ties. It also prevents fuel spilling if the
lines are broken in the accident or
sparks and flashover due to electric
component damages.
After the crash, remember to turn
the ignition key to STOPto prevent
the battery running down.
