Air flow to the front and rear footwell diffusers. This air distribution setting heats the passenger compartment most quickly,
giving a prompt sensation of warmth.
+ Air flow distributed between footwell diffusers (hotter air) and central and side dashboard vents (cooler air). This
distribution setting is useful in spring and autumn on sunny days.
+ Air flow distributed between footwell diffusers and windscreen and front side window defrosting/demisting diffusers.
This distribution setting allows the passenger compartment to be warmed up efficiently and prevents the windows
from misting up.
+ Air flow distribution between windscreen demisting/defrosting diffusers and side and central dashboard vents. This
allows air to be sent to the windscreen in conditions of strong sunlight.
+ + Air flow distribution to all diffusers on the vehicle.
I - heated rear window on/off button; (where this function is provided, pressing the button also activates demisting/defrosting of
the door mirrors);
L - passenger side temperature adjustment knob;
M - SYNC function activation button (alignment of set temperatures) driver/passenger side;
N - AUTO function activation button (automatic operation).
In AUTO mode, the climate control
system automatically manages air
distribution (the LEDs on buttons H are
off). When set manually, the air
distribution is shown by the LEDs on
the selected buttons.
In combined function mode the relevant
function is enabled simultaneously
with those already set by pressing the
corresponding button. If a button
whose function is already active is
pressed, its operation is cancelled and
the corresponding LED switches off.
To restore automatic control of the
air distribution after a manual selection,
press the AUTO button.
NOTES
The automatic climate control manages
the Stop/Start system (engine off and
vehicle at a standstill) in order to
guarantee sufficient comfort inside the
vehicle. In particularly severe climate
conditions it is recommended to limit
the use of the Stop/Start system to
prevent the compressor from
continuously switching on and off, with
consequent rapid misting of the
windows and accumulation of humidity
with unpleasant smells in the passenger
compartment.
When the Stop/Start system is on
(engine off and vehicle at a standstill),
the automatic recirculation
management is turned off always taking
air in from outside, to reduce the
probability of the windows misting up
(as the compressor is off).
