GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR
68
The system uses refrig-
erant R134a as it will not
pollute the environment
if it accidentally leaks. Under no
circumstance use other fluids
which are incompatible with the
system’s component parts.
AIR FLOW
The system manual operation has 8
different air capacity levels which are
displayed with half blackening of each
main fan symbol stake.
When the automatic function has
been enabled (AUTO) the air capaci-
ty varies and can be controlled by the
system. This is indicated on the display
by 4 half blackened stakes.
It is easier to reach the
wished air temperature
conditions with inside air
recirculation. Anyway, it is better
not to use this function in
rainy/cold days because inside
window misting may increase, es-
pecially if the compressor is off.
You are recommended
to use the inside air recir-
culation function in the
traffic jam (car lines inside or out-
side galleries) to prevent outside
polluted air from getting into the
vehicle. Anyway, do not use this
function when several people are
onboard, to prevent inside win-
dow misting.
AUTOMATIC
CLIMATE CONTROL
SYSTEM
The car is fitted with an automatic
climate control system to control tem-
perature, air capacity, distribution and
recirculation according to two defini-
tion levels:
• automatic system called multi-
zone, with split temperature (left/
right) for the first and second row;
• automatic system called three-
zone with additional rear fans which
can be controlled by the second row
passengers to change the second and
third row vent air capacity.
IMPORTANT Manual selections
prevail over automatic selections and
are stored in the memory until the
user activates the system automatic
mode (AUTO). Manual settings are
stored when the engine is turned off
and restored when the engine is start-
ed again.
