Manual selections always have higher priority over
automatic settings and are stored until the user
switches the system back to automatic control
expect for cases in which the system intervenes for
particular safety-related reasons. You can adjust
one function manually without affecting the
automatic control of the others.
The amount of air introduced into the passenger
compartment is not affected by car speed; it is
regulated by the fan, which is controlled
electronically.
The temperature of the air introduced is always
controlled automatically, according to the
temperature set in the display for the driver and
the front passenger (except when the system is off
or in certain conditions when the compressor is
deactivated).
The system allows the following to be set or
adjusted manually:
❒ driver/front passenger side air temperature
❒ fan speed (continuous variation)
❒ air distribution to 5 positions (driver/passenger)
❒ compressor activation
❒ rapid defrosting/demisting function
❒ air recirculation
❒ heated rear window
❒ system deactivation.
SWITCHING ON THE CLIMATE CONTROL
SYSTEM
The system can be switched on in various ways; it
is however advisable to press the AUTO button
and set the desired temperature on the display.
The climate control system allows you to
customise the temperatures requested (driver side
and passenger side) with a maximum difference
of 7°C.
The climate control system compressor works only
with the engine running and with an outside
temperature of above 4°C.
