CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM

2)

MANUAL CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM

F1B0052C

33

A - fan activation/adjustment knob:

❒ 0 = fan off

❒

= fan speed (7 different speeds can be chosen)

B - air recirculation on/off button;

C - air temperature adjustment knob and MAX A/C function activation:

❒ blue section = cold air

❒ red section = hot air

27

D - climate control system compressor activation/deactivation button (not available for versions with heater only);

E - air distribution knob:

air flow from central and side vents

air flow from central vents, side vents and front / rear footwell vents

air outlet from the front and rear footwell diffusers and a light air flow also from the side vents on the dashboard

air outlet from the front and rear footwell diffusers, to the windscreen, the side windows and a light air flow also at the side

vents on the dashboard

air outlet to the windscreen, the side windows and a light air flow also at the side vents on the dashboard

4 further intermediate positions are also possible in the 5 main distributions described above.

F - Heated rear window on/off button;

Selecting the windscreen air distribution activates the climate control system compressor (LED on A/C button on) and the air

recirculation is set to "outside air" (LED on button B off). This logic guarantees optimum visibility at the windows. The driver can

always set air recirculation and climate control system compressor.

Additional heater

(where provided)

The additional heater ensures more rapid passenger compartment heating.

It activates in cold weather conditions, if the following conditions are verified:

❒ outside temperature low;

❒ engine coolant temperature low;

❒ engine started;

❒ fan speed set at least to 1^stspeed;

❒ knob C turned completely clockwise to red section.

The heater is switched off when at least one of the conditions above is no longer verified.

Note The power of the electric heater is modulated according to the battery voltage.

E - climate control on/off button;

F - fan speed adjustment knob;

G - Fan speed indicator LED;

H - air distribution selection buttons;

I - Heated rear window on/off button;

L - passenger side temperature adjustment knob;

M - SYNC function activation button (alignment of set temperatures) driver/passenger side;

Air distribution selection

Air flow to the windscreen and front side window diffusers to demist/defrost them.

Air flow at central and side dashboard vents to ventilate the chest and the face during the hot season.

Air flow to the front and rear footwell diffusers. This air distribution setting heats the passenger compartment most quickly,

giving a prompt sensation of warmth.

+

Air flow distributed between footwell diffusers (hotter air) and central and side dashboard vents (cooler air). This

distribution setting is useful in spring and autumn on sunny days.

Air flow distributed between footwell vents and windscreen and front side vents. This distribution setting allows the

passenger compartment to be warmed up efficiently and prevents the windows from misting up.

Air flow distributed between central and side dashboard vents and windscreen and front side window vents. This

distribution allows air to be sent to the windscreen in conditions of strong sunlight.

+

Air flow distribution to all diffusers on the vehicle.

In AUTO mode, the climate control system automatically manages air distribution (the LEDs on buttons H are off). When set

manually, the air distribution is indicated by the LEDs on the selected buttons switching on. In combined function mode the

relevant function is enabled simultaneously with those already set by pressing the corresponding button. If a button whose

function is already active is pressed, its operation is cancelled and the corresponding LED switches off. To restore automatic

control of the air distribution after a manual selection, press the AUTO button.

Start&Stop

The automatic dual zone climate control system manages the Start&Stop system (engine off when vehicle speed is 0 km/h) to

ensure adequate comfort inside the vehicle. When the Start&Stop system is on (engine off and vehicle at a standstill), the

automatic recirculation management is turned off always taking air in from outside, to reduce the probability of the windows

misting up (as the compressor is off).

WARNING

2) The system uses R1234YF coolant, which does not pollute the environment in the event of accidental leakage. Under no circumstances

use R134a and R12 fluids, which are incompatible with the components of the system.
