Fan speed
adjustment
buttons (L)
Pressing the ends of but-
ton
p
increases or de-
creases the fan speed
and therefore the amount of air admitted
to the passenger compartment, although
keeping the required temperature.
The fan speed is shown by the lit bars on
the display
❒ max fan speed = all bars lit
❒ min fan speed = one bar lit.
The fan can be cut off only if the climate
control compressor has been switched off
pressing button B.
IMPORTANT To restore automatic fan
speed control after a manual adjustment,
press button AUTO.
AUTO buttons
(H-N)
(automatic
operation)
Pressing the AUTO
button (on driver and/or
front passenger side) the
system automatically ad-
justs the amount and dis-
tribution of the air ad-
mitted to the passenger
compartment, cancelling
all the previous manual adjustments.
This condition is indicated by the message
FULL AUTO on the front system dis-
play.
Manual operation of at least one automatic
function (air recirculation, air distribution,
fan speed or climate control compressor
off) will cause FULL message going off the
display. This means that automatic control
is not complete (except temperature con-
trol which is always automatic).
IMPORTANT Should the system (after
manual settings) be no longer able to guar-
antee the required temperature set in the
passenger compartment, the set temper-
ature value will start flashing to indicate
this condition, after one minute the AU-
TO message will turn off.
To restore automatic system control af-
ter one or more manual selections, press
button AUTO.
MONO button (A)
(alignment of set
temperatures and
air distribution)
Pressing button MONO
automatically aligns the temperature on
the front passenger’s side with that on the
driver’s side.
It is therefore possible to set the same
temperature and air distribution between
the two zones simply turning the knob on
the driver’s side. This function is provid-
ed to simplify temperature adjustment of
the whole passenger compartment when
only the driver is on board.
Separate operation of the set tempera-
tures and air distribution is automatically
restored by turning knob H-fig. 65 or
pressing button MONO A again when
the button led is on.
