A. DRIVER’S CONTROL

PANEL

– to decrease the temperature,

+ to increase the temperature.

When starting from cold, in order to

avoid a rush of cold air, the blower

attains its optimum level progres-

sively.

An adjustment around 21 will pro-

vide an agreeable temperature level.

However, depending on your prefer-

ence, anything between 18 and 24

is quite normal.

III

For optimum comfort, it is recom-

mended to avoid an adjustment dif-

ference greater than 3 between right

and left.

Actual temperatures experienced in

the passenger compartment are de-

pendent on external factors and for

this reason might not be identical to

those displayed.

On entering the vehicle, the inside

temperature may be much colder (or

hotter) than would be comfortable. It

serves no purpose to alter the tem-

perature displayed in an attempt to

attain your preference more rapidly.

The system automatically uses its

maximum performance to make up

the difference in temperature as

soon as possible.

Manual resumption of one or

more functions

It is possible to adjust each of the

functions 3, 4, 6 and 10 manually.

The display of the "AUTO" function

will then go off.

perature, and returns the system
