Description

The climate control system with heater unit is controlled by means of three knobs in the control panel in the centre of the dashboard:

• the left knob mechanically controls the mixture flap between hot air (red) and cold air (blue);
• the right knob, mechanically operated via a cable, controls the opening of the flaps which regulate the distribution of air flows;
• the centre knob electrically controls the ventilation of the air at four different speeds: 1, 2, 3 and 4. In position 0, the fan is turned off but air still enters due to the dynamic effect of the car's motion.;
• when pressed, the left button activates the air recirculation function by an electrical command; when the button is pressed, the relevant LED comes on. If the button is released, "dynamic" air flows in from the outside
• the right button switches on the heated rear window; when the button is pressed, the relevant LED comes on.
