Climate control 5-11
Automatic climate control
with touch screen
Operating modes
The automatic climate control system
maintains the interior of the vehicle at the
temperature selected by the occupant.
The heat input, air conditioning, fan
speed, air intake and distribution flaps
are adjusted automatically to maintain
the desired temperature.
Automatic control (AUTO) may be
overridden at any time. Defrost/demist
operation is available and also manual
selection of fan speed, air distribution,
recirculation, air conditioning and
windscreen heating.
Controls and displays
Multi-function console
The system is controlled from the
multi-function centre console which also
provides user control of other facilities
(such as audio, telephone, navigation
system).
Climate controls
The climate control system has its own,
manually selected, touch screen displays
providing ‘soft’ control buttons. Touching
the screen button with a finger has the
same effect as pressing a push button.
Refer to the general description and
usage of the touch screen in Section 1 of
this Handbook.
Note that using other systems and touch
screens, such as audio or navigation, does
not affect the climate control settings.
A number of push buttons are also used
for climate control and are located
around the touch screen. When a push
button is pressed, selection is confirmed
by a beep and illumination of an LED on
the button (except temperature controls).
LCD screen
An LCD screen below the touch screen
shows clock time, external (EXT) ambient
temperature and the required interior
temperature set by the occupant.
