FAST DEMISTING AND/OR DEFROSTING
1) Air distribution knob, pointer to
MAX
/
DEF
.
The system is set for rapid demisting/defrosting of the
windscreen and side windows by activating the
following functions automatically:
❒ max temperature
❒ high air flow
The system limits the fan speed until the fluid reaches
the temperature required to prevent cool air entering
the passenger compartment.
❒ air recirculation off (led off) so that outside air is
directed into the passenger compartment;
❒ compressor on (led on);
❒ air distribution to windscreen.
When the windscreen and windows have been
demisted/defrosted, adjust the air distribution knob to
restore the required conditions.
IMPORTANT An important characteristic of the
climate control system is the de-humidification of the
air. We recommend that you always engage the
compressor by pressing button
√
(led on) to prevent
misting.
IMPORTANT When outside humidity is high or when
it is raining or when there is a big difference in
temperature between temperature inside the
passenger compartment and the outside air, you can
prevent the windows misting up by proceeding as
follows:
❒ air recirculation off (led off);
❒ air temperature knob to
HI
;
❒ fan speed to 2
nd
speed at least;
❒ air distribution knob to
-
with possibility of
changing to
≤
if the windows do not begin to steam
up;
❒ engage the compressor by pressing switch
√
(led
on).
