Climate Control Functions
Air Conditioning (A/C)
The "A/C" soft-key allows to manually
activate or deactivate the air
conditioning system. When the air
conditioning system is turned on, cool
dehumidified air will flow through the
vents into the cabin. For improved fuel
economy, touch the "A/C" soft-key to
turn off the air conditioning.
When the A/C is switched off it is
not possible to have air at a lower
temperature than the outside.
Recirculation and Air Quality
Sensor (AQS)
When outside air contains smoke,
odours, or high humidity, or if rapid
cooling is desired, you may wish to
recirculate interior air by pressing the
relevant soft-key button to activate
the two different functionalities.
The recirculation function, that allows
to open/close the A/C air inlet by
operating the button on the
MIA soft key, is integrated with the Air
Quality Sensor.
This sensor, positioned upstream of
the A/C filter, in front of the air intake
of the A/C system, detects the presence
of polluting substances and submits an
electric signal to the A/C control unit,
that closes the intake of the external
air by activating the air recirculation.
The MIA soft-key can therefore
enable 3 operating modes, switchable
in sequence: "Auto", "Manual" and
"Open".
Starting from the outside air condition
("Open" mode) with LED on the
button off and MIA soft-key not
highlighted, in which the external air
is aspirated by the A/C system and
treated to be introduced into the
passenger compartment, subsequent
actuations of the button or
the MIA soft-key change the state as
follows.
• First press - "Auto" mode : the A/C
system activates the automatic
recirculation control by using the
signal transmitted from the AQS.
The symbol ‘’A’’ on the MIA
soft-key with the symbol "A" in
white lights up.
• Second press - "Manual" mode: the
A/C system activates the recirculation,
the LED on the button light
up and the MIA soft-key with the
symbol "M" in white lights up. The
A/C system will stay this way up to a
new actuation, or until the increased
humidity could lead to windshield
fogging: in this case the recirculation
automatically switches to external air.
• Third press - "Open" mode: the A/C
system switches back to external air
(default operating mode).
The next press of the MIA soft-
key restarts the operating cycle just
described.
