VENTILATION

1. Windscreen de-icing or
demisting vents.

2. Front window de-icing or
demisting vents.

3. Side vents.

4. Centre vents.

5. Air outlets to front footwells. The air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and does not present
any danger to the ozone layer.
Operate the air conditioning system
for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a
month, to keep it in perfect working
order.
The water created by the air condi-
tioning condensation is discharged
via an opening provided for this pur-
pose. Therefore, a puddle of water
may form underneath the vehicle
when stationary.
If the system does not produce
cold air, do not use it and contact a
CITROËN dealer.
De-icing the rear windows and
mirrors
With the engine running, pressing
the control de-ices the rear windows
and mirrors.
It switches off automatically after ap-
proximately twelve minutes.
Pressing the control again switch-
es the de-icing system on again for
twelve minutes.
It is possible to switch off the de-ic-
ing by pressing the control before the
twelve minutes have elapsed.
Advice on operation
Select the air distribution most suited
to your requirements and the climatic
conditions.
Gradually adjust the temperature
setting for your comfort.
Position the air control in the ''Outside
Air'' position.
For perfectly even air distribution,
take care not to obstruct the exterior
air intake grille and the vents. Check
that the passenger compartment fi l-
ter is in good condition.
When the engine is cold, to prevent
too great a distribution of cold air, the
ventilation will increase to its opti-
mum level gradually.
In order to be effective, the air condi-
tioning (
A/C button), should only be
used with the windows closed.
If the interior temperature remains
very high following a prolonged peri-
od parked in the sun, do not hesitate
to ventilate the passenger compart-
ment for a few minutes.

COMFORT38 - Press the switch to activate
the air conditioning. The indi-
cator light comes on. 2. Air fl ow adjustment and air
intake control
Turn the control from posi-
tion 1 to position 4 to obtain
an air fl ow suffi cient to en-
sure your comfort.
AIR CONDITIONING

The air conditioning does not
operate while the air fl ow adjust-
ment control is in the minimum
position.

Note: to optimise the operation of
the air conditioning, leave the vents
open.
1. Air conditioning control
The air conditioning is designed to
operate in all seasons. In summer,
it enables the temperature to be
lowered and in winter, above 0 °C,
it increases the effectiveness of the
demisting.

39COMFORT-
Additional heater
Vehicles which are fi tted with an HDI
engine may be fi tted with automatic
additional heating to improve your
comfort.
When the engine is idling or the vehi-
cle is stationary, it is quite normal to
notice a high-pitched whistling noise
and a slight emission of smoke and
odour.
Centre and side vents.
This setting is recommended for high
temperatures.
Recirculation of interior air.
This position prevents exterior odours
and smoke entering the passenger
compartment.
Used simultaneously with the air con-
ditioning, recirculation enables both
heating and cooling performance to
be improved.
Used without the air conditioning,
recirculation may result in misting of
the windows.
As soon as possible, position the
control in the exterior air intake posi-
tion.
3. Temperature adjustment
To be adjusted to your requirements.
From blue (cold when the air condi-
tioning is on) to red (hot). 4. Air distribution adjustment
Windscreen and side win-
dows (de-icing/demisting).
To quickly de-ice or demist the wind-
screen and side windows:
- turn the temperature and air fl ow controls to maximum,
- close the centre vents,
- position the air intake control in the "Outside Air" position,
- start the air conditioning.
Footwells.
These settings are recommended for
cold climates. Windscreen, side windows
and footwells.
Intake of exterior air.

This is the normal operating position.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION102 -
TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC.
We recommend the use of original
CITROËN towbars and their har-
nesses that have been tested and ap-
proved from the design stage of your
vehicle and that the fi tting of the towbar
is entrusted to a CITROËN dealer.
If the towbar is not fi tted by a CITROËN
dealer, it is imperative that it is fi tted
using the electrical pre-equipment
installed at the rear of the vehicle, in
accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
Your vehicle is primarily designed for
transporting people and luggage but it
may also be used for towing a trailer.
Driving with a trailer subjects the tow-
ing vehicle to more signifi cant stress
and its driver must be particularly
careful.
Air density decreases with altitude,
thus reducing engine performance.
Above 1 000 metres, the maximum
towing load must be reduced by 10 %
and so on for every 1 000 metres of
altitude. Driving advice
Tyres: Check the tyre pressures of
the towing vehicle and of the trailer,
observing the recommended pres-
sures.


Braking: Towing increases the brak-
ing distance.

Lights: Check the electrical signalling
on the trailer.

Side wind: Take into account the
increased sensitivity to side wind.

Cooling: Towing a trailer on a slope
increases the temperature of the
coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled,
its cooling capacity is not dependent
on the engine speed.
On the contrary, use a high gear to
lower the engine speed and reduce
your speed.
The maximum towing load on a long
slope depends on the gradient and
the outside temperature.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load on a
steep gradient in high temperatures),
switching off the air conditioning per-
mits the recovery of engine power
and therefore an increase in the tow-
ing capacity.
If the warning light comes on, stop
the vehicle and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.

Distribution of loads: Distribute the
load in the trailer so that the heaviest
items are as close as possible to the
axle and the nose weight approaches
the maximum permitted without ex-
ceeding it.
