USING THE CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM
The system can be started in different ways, but it is ad-
visable to start by pressing the AUTO button and then
turning the knob to set the temperature required on the
display. The system will start running automatically in this
way and the set comfortable temperature will be reached
as quickly as possible. The system will adjust the temper-
ature, the quantity and the distribution of the air intro-
duced into the passenger compartment and will manage
the recirculation function and the compressor engagement.
During fully automatic operation the only manual inter-
vention required is the possible activation of the following
functions:
❒
Ò air recirculation, to keep it always on or off;
❒
Z to speed up the demisting/defrosting of the front win-
dows, the rearscreen and the door mirrors;
During the fully automatic operation of the system, the tem-
perature set, the air distribution and the speed of the fan can
be set by operating the buttons and knobs at any time: the
system will automatically change its setting to adapt to the
new requests. During fully automatic operation (FULL
AUTO), the word FULL will disappear if the air distribu-
tion and/or flow rate and/or engagement of the compressor
and/or recirculation settings are changed. In this way, the
functions will switch from automatic to manual control un-
til the AUTO button is pressed again. With one or more
functions turned on manually, the adjustment of the intake
air temperature continues to be managed automatically, ex-
cept with the compressor switched off: in these conditions
the temperature of the air introduced into the passenger
compartment cannot be lower than the outside air.
