I guess Diego has the standard A/C not the Automatic version.
Top button: is defogging. The A/C runs even the heater is on, to defog the windows and dry the inside air
Middle button: normal A/C function along with the settings of the temp-wheels
lower button: it closes the outside air inlet to prevent bad smells coming in, and circulates the air within the car only.

Thanks alot, you´re right i have the standard A/C. But i think ... visually.. the standard looks great than the automatic version.
Best regards

Absolutely agree. I prefer windows an sun roof open, (if i dont have bonds in the rear seat) but you know, in some dusty freeways you need the A/C
best regards
