SWITCHING THE CLIMATE
CONTROL SYSTEM ON
The system can be started in different
ways, but it is advisable to press one
of the AUTO buttons and then to turn
the knobs to set the temperatures re-
quired on the display.
It is possible to personalise required
temperatures (driver and passenger)
with a maximum difference of 7 °C.
This way the system will start work-
ing completely automatically to reach
the temperatures set as quickly as
possible. The system will adjust the
air temperature, flow and distribution
and will control the air recirculation
function and the conditioner com-
pressor on/off.
During fully automatic operation, the
only manual settings required are the
following:
❒
MONO , to align the air tempera-
ture and distribution set on the pas-
senger’s side (front) with that on
the driver’s side;
❒ …
, air recirculation, to keep it al-
ways on or off;
❒
-
, to speed up demisting/defrost-
ing of windscreen front side win-
dows, rear window and door mir-
rors;
❒
(
, to demist/defrost the rear
heated window.
During completely automatic system
operation, the temperatures, air dis-
tribution and the fan speed set can be
changed at any time through the rel-
evant buttons or knobs: the system
will automatically change its settings
to adjust to the new requirements.
During full automatic operation
( FULL AUTO ), any change in air dis-
tribution and/or air flow and/or com-
pressor turning on and/or air recircu-
lation will obtain FULL disappearing.
In this way functions will be con-
trolled manually until pressing the
AUTO button again. The fan speed is
the same for all passenger compart-
ment areas.
With one or more functions engaged
manually, the adjustment of the tem-
perature of the air admitted to the
passenger compartment continues to
be controlled automatically by the
system, except with the climate con-
trol compressor off. In fact, in this
condition, the air admitted to the pas-
senger compartment cannot have a
lower temperature than the outside
air.
