A few definitions…
When the range falls below 20 miles
( 3 0 k m ) , d a s h e s a r e d i s p l a y e d . A f t e r ο¬ l l -
ing with at least 5 litres of fuel, the range
is recalculated and is displayed when it
exceeds 60 miles (100 km).
If dashes are displayed continu-
ously while driving in place of the
digits, contact a CITROËN dealer. This function is only displayed from
20 mph (30 km/h).
This value may vary following
a change in the style of driving
or the relief, resulting in a sig-

consumption. Range
(miles or km)
This indicates the distance
which can still be travelled
with the fuel remaining in the tank in
relation to the average fuel consump-
tion over the last few miles (kilometres)
travelled. Current fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
This is the average fuel con-
sumption during the last few
seconds.
Average fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
This is the average fuel
consumption since the last
trip computer zero reset. Distance travelled
(miles or km)
This indicates the distance
travelled since the last trip
computer zero reset.
Average speed
(mph or km/h)
This is the average speed
calculated since the last trip
computer zero reset (igni-
tion on). Distance remaining to
destination
(miles or km)
This is the distance remaining

gation system, if guidance is activated,
or entered by the user.
If the distance is not entered, dashes
are displayed in place of the digits.

COMFORT
VENTILATION
System which creates and maintains
comfortable conditions in the vehicle's
passenger compartment. Air flow paths
The incoming air follows various routes
depending on the controls selected by
the driver:
- direct arrival in the passenger com-
partment (air intake),
- passage through a heating circuit (heating),
- passage through a cooling circuit (air conditioning).
The temperature control enables you to
obtain the level of comfort required by
mixing the air of the various circuits. The air distribution control enables
you to diffuse the air in the passenger
compartment combining several air
vents.
T h e a i r ο¬ o w c o n t r o l e n a b l e s y o u t o
increase or reduce the speed of the
ventilation fan.
Air intake
The air circulating in the passenger com-
p a r t m e n t i s ο¬ l t e r e d a n d o r i g i n a t e s e i t h e r
from the outside via the grille located at
the base of the windscreen or from the
inside in air recirculation mode. Control panel
The controls of this system are grouped
together on control panel
A on the cen-
tre console. Depending on the model,
the functions offered are:
- the level of comfort required,
- a i r ο¬ o w ,
- air distribution,
- demisting and defrosting,
- manual or digital air conditioning controls.
Air distribution
1. Windscreen demisting or defrosting
vents.
2. Front side window demisting or de-
frosting vents.
3. Side adjustable air vents.
4. Central adjustable air vents.
5. Air outlets to the front footwells.
6. Air outlets to the rear footwells.

COMFORT
The air conditioning system does
not contain chlorine and does not
present any danger to the ozone
layer.
In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the g uidelines on opera-
tion and maintenance below:
ο If the interior temperature remains very high after the vehicle has been

P l a c e t h e a i r ο¬ o w c o n t r o l a t a s u f ο¬ c i e n t l e v e l t o p r o v i d e a n a d e q u a t e r e -
newal of air in the passenger compartment.
ο To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obst ruct the exterior air
intake grilles located at the base of the windscreen, the n ozzles, the vents
and the air outlets, as well as the air extractor located in the passenger
compartment on both sides of the rear shelf.
ο Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard (behind the
instrument panel); this is used for regulation of t he air conditioning system.
ο Operate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, on ce or twice a
month to keep it in good working order.

breathed by the occupants and the cleanliness of th e passenger compart-
ment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours an d greasy deposits).
ο To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also
advised to have it checked regularly.
ο If the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a
CITROËN dealer.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures,
switching off the air conditioning saves engine power and so improves towing
capacity.
The condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of
water under the vehicle which is perfectly normal.
