 Turn control 2a to change the
temperature on the driver's side
and control 2b to change the
temperature on the passenger's
side: to the right to increase the
temperature or to the left to re-
duce it.
The setting required is displayed.
The value indicated on the display
corresponds to a level of comfort
and not to a temperature in degrees
Celsius or Fahrenheit, depending
on the screen confi guration.
A setting around the value 21 usually
makes it possible to obtain optimum
comfort. However, depending on your
requirements, a setting between 18
and 24 is usual.
On entering the vehicle, the interior
temperature may be much colder
(or warmer) than is comfortable.
There is no need to change the
temperature displayed in order to
quickly obtain the level of comfort
required.
The automatic regulation of the air
conditioning will use its maximum
performance settings to correct the
temperature difference as quickly
as possible.
