Button T - D
Air recirculation on/off
This function is particularly useful when
the outside air is heavily polluted (in a traf-
fic jam, tunnel, etc.).
Button led on = recirculation on.
Button led off = recirculation off.
With low temperatures or compressor
off, air recirculation is deactivated to pre-
vent window misting up.
IMPORTANT It is inadvisable to use air
recirculation on cold days as it would con-
siderably increase the possibility of win-
dows misting up inside.
During AUTO operation, due to safety rea-
sons, after long recirculation activation (over
25 minutes) the system will deactivate au-
tomatically air recirculation for 1 minute to
enable outside air inlet.
Buttons ÕÔ- E
Temperature setting
Pressing button Õ will raise the passen-
ger’s compartment temperature up to HI
value (maximum heating power).
Pressing button Ô will lower the passen-
ger’s compartment temperature down to
LO value (maximum cooling power).
HI function
This functions can be switched on when
you wish to heat the passenger compart-
ment as quickly as possible; air distribu-
tion and fan speed are controlled by the
system.
To turn this function off, set the required
temperature.
IMPORTANT If the system fluid is not
warm enough, top fan speed will not be
activated immediately to prevent air not
warm enough from entering the passen-
ger compartment.
LO function
This function can be switched on when
you wish to cool the passenger compart-
ment as quickly as possible; with this func-
tion switched on the compressor will be
turned on (if off) whereas air distribution
and fan speed are controlled by the sys-
tem.
To turn this function off, set the required
temperature.
IMPORTANT With the function switched
on, however, all the manual settings can
be made.
Button OFF - C
Switching the climate control
system off
Press button OFF to turn the system off.
When turned off the system conditions are
the following:
❒ all leds off;
❒ temperature display off;
❒ air recirculation off;
❒ compressor off;
❒ fan off.
Under this condition, air recirculation can
be turned on or off without activating the
system.
IMPORTANT The system will store the
settings (except recirculation) performed
before turning off and will resume them
when pressing any button (if the function
corresponding to the button pressed is off
it will be turned on; if on it will be kept ac-
tive). Press AUTO to turn the system in
automatic mode.
