HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS
General n n otes
•
When the outside temperature is low
the fan will not switch on until the cooling
liquid has reached the right temperature,
unless the fan is manually switched on
.
•
The air inlet in front of the windscreen
should be kept free from ice, snow and
dead leaves to avoid hindrance to the
heating or air conditioning systems.
•
In automatic gear box versions, the
kick-down mechanism briefly switches off
the air conditioning compressor when
moving down a gear, so the engine can
keep up full capacity.
•
If the cooling liquid gets too hot the
compressor switches off when the engine
is subjected to great effort, to guarantee
perfect engine cooling.
•
At low outside temperatures (less than
+5°C) the refrigeration group (compres-
sor) is automatically switched off, and
may not even be switched on manually
(with D key).
•
When the compressor is on the inside
temperature and humidity of the car is
reduced. This stops the windows from
steaming up.

remain closed.
However if the inside of the car is over-
heated, e.g. because it has been in the
sun, the cooling process can be speeded
up by briefly opening the windows.

condense on the evaporator and drip
down to form a puddle under the car. This
is perfectly normal and does not mean
there is a leak.
•
impurities from the air (e.g. dust, pollen
etc.). If the air is polluted by gases the air
recirculation mode should be connected.
•
should be changed in accordance with
the Maintenance and Inspection Plan, to
prevent a loss in the air conditioning
capacity.
