Manual selections always take priority over automatic
ones and are stored until the AUTO button is pushed or
the system itself intervenes for specific safety reasons.
The amount of air introduced into the passenger com-
partment is not affected by car speed; it is regulated by
the fan, which is controlled electronically.
The air temperature is always automatically controlled
according to the temperature set on the display (except
for when the system is off or in certain conditions when
the compressor is not running).
The system allows the following to be set or adjusted
manually:
• driver/passenger side air temperature
• fan speed (continuous variation)
• air distribution to seven positions
• compressor enablement
• rapid defrosting/demisting function
• air recirculation
• heated rear window
• system deactivation
NOTE: The climate control system detects the passenger
compartment temperature using a mean radiant tem-
perature sensor located in the interior rear view mirror
and protected by a specific cover. Obstructing the field of
view of this sensor with any object could cause the
climate control system to operate with less than optimal
efficiency.
Switching On The Climate Control System
The climate control system can be switched on in differ-
ent ways: it is advisable to push the AUTO button and
turn the knobs to set the desired temperatures.
