Air inlet
Check that the exterior grille for the air inlet, at the bottom of the windscreen, is clean and free of dead leaves, snow, etc.
If washing the vehicle with a high pressure jet, avoid targeting the air inlet zone.
Air vents
The air vents to the face (except the central air vent) have grilles for orienting the fl ow of air (up-down, right-left).
Air circulation
For your comfort we advise you to maintain a proper distribution of air within the cabin, both at the front and at the rear.
Air outlets are also located on the central console close to the gear lever, to enhance comfort for the rear passengers.
Pollen fi lter – Odour fi lter
Your installation has a fi lter for keeping out dust.
This fi lter has to be changed according to the vehicle maintenance schedule. See "Maintenance Guide".
Air conditioning
Whatever the time of year, even in cool weather the air conditioning is useful in removing humidity and misting.
To keep the air conditioning compressor well sealed, it is essential to operate the air conditioning at least once in every month.
To be effective, the air conditioning should only be used with the windows closed.
If you are towing a heavy trailer and outside tempera-tures are high, the air conditioning may be temporarily paused if the engine cooling requires this.
Water arising from condensation in the air conditioning system is evacuated through a hole provided for this purpose; a pool of water may thus form underneath the vehicle when stationary.
You are advised to have the air conditioning system checked on a regular basis. See "Maintenance Guide".
The air conditioning operates by using power from the engine. This results in a slight increase in fuel consumption.
Demisting - deicing of the windscreen and front side windowsPlace the controls for temperature and air fl ow on maximum.
Close the central air vents.
Operate the air conditioning.Note: You should not be in air recirculation.
