IMPORTANT
When the engine is
started with the climate control sys-
tem in automatic mode and the ex-
ternal temperature is very low, the fan
may not be activated. Do not consid-
er it a malfunction; the system will re-
store the normal operation as soon as
the temperature threshold set by the
system is reached.
AIR DISTRIBUTION
Air distribution options, controlled
automatically or manually, are the fol-
lowing:
– ventilation (front)
– bilevel (front/feet)
– feet
– windscreen/feet
– MAX-DEF function.
Air is also delivered to second and
third row seat.
Ventilation
The treated air flow passes through
5 front vents placed on the edge and
in the middle of the dashboard. The air
flow can be directed both horizontal-
ly and vertically by adjusting manually
the tab position and the control lever.
Air capacity can be adjusted by ro-
tating the vent sliders.
With this setting the system enables
air capacity variation for the second
and third row.
Bilevel function
The air flow is distributed in the fol-
lowing way: 45% ventilation, 45% feet,
10% windscreen.
With this setting treated air is di-
rected towards the feet of front and
rear seat passengers and towards the
dashboard vents. It also enables air ca-
pacity variation for the second and
third row.
Feet
Air is directed towards the feet
through:
– three front vents for the first row
(2 on the driver’s side and 1 on the
passenger’s side);
– four vents on the floor (2 for the
second row and 2 for the third row).
Windscreen/feet
Air is distributed with the same per-
centage to the feet (40%) and wind-
screen vents (40%), but a small per-
centage is devoted to ventilation (20%)
in order to guarantee the passenger
compartment heating and to prevent
frosting.
This type of air distribution is applied
by the climate control system auto-
matic operation, especially when the
external temperature is very low and
it is necessary to direct some warm air
towards the driver’s hands.
