Air conditioning
We recommend use of the automatic
regulation of the air conditioning.
It permits automatic and optimised
control of all of the following functions:
air fl ow, temperature in the passen-
ger compartment and air distribu-
tion, by means of various sensors
(ambient temperature, sunshine).
This eliminates any need for you to
change your settings other than the
temperature value displayed.

 Take care not to cover the sun-
shine sensor A .
If you select the automatic mode (by
pressing the "AUTO" control) and leave
all of the vents open, optimum comfort
will be maintained and humidity and
condensation will be removed regard-
less of the exterior climatic conditions.
The temperature in the passenger
compartment can only be lower than
the ambient temperature if the air
conditioning is on.
HEATING, VENTILATION AND AIR CONDITIONING RECOMMENDATIONS
In order to be effective, the air condi-
tioning must be used with the windows
closed. If the vehicle has been parked
in the sun for a long period and the
interior temperature is very high, fi rst
ventilate the passenger compartment
with the windows open for a few min-
utes, then close the windows.
To keep the air conditioning system
in good working order it is essential
that it is operated at least once a
month.
The air conditioning uses engine power
during its operation. As a result, the fuel
consumption of the vehicle increases.
In certain cases of particularly ardu-
ous use (e.g. towing the maximum
load on a steep gradient in high
temperatures), switching off the air
conditioning saves engine power
and improves the towing capacity.
Air inlet
Check that the exterior grille for the
air inlet, at the bottom of the wind-
screen, is clean and free of dead
leaves, snow, etc.
When washing the vehicle using a
high pressure nozzle, avoid spraying
at the air inlet. Air circulation
Maximum comfort is obtained by
means of a good distribution of air in
the passenger compartment, both in
the front and in the rear.
To obtain a uniform distribution of
air, take care not to block the ex-
terior air intake grille located at the
base of the windscreen, the vents,
the air outlets under the front seats
and the air extractor located behind
the fl aps in the boot.
The front and rear vents are fi tted
with thumbwheels to adjust the air
fl ow and direction. We recommend
that you leave all of the vents open.
Dust filter/Odour filter
(active carbon)
There is a fi lter for excluding odours
and dust.
This fi lter must be changed in line
with the vehicle's servicing schedule
(see: "Maintenance and Warranty
Guide").

GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR *
System which reduces fuel con-
sumption by advising the driver to
change up on vehicles fi tted with a
manual gearbox.
Operation
The system intervenes only when
driving economically.
Depending on the driving situation
and your vehicle's equipment, the
system may advise you to skip one
or more gears. You can follow this
instruction without engaging the in-
termediate gears.
The gear engagement recommen-
dations must not be considered
compulsory. In fact, the confi gu-
ration of the road, the amount of
traffi c and safety remain determin-
ing factors when choosing the best
gear. Therefore, the driver remains
responsible for deciding whether or
not to follow the advice given by the
system.
This function cannot be deactivated.
* According to engine. Example:
- You are in third gear.
- You press the accelerator pedal
moderately.
- The system may suggest that you engage a higher gear, if ap-
propriate. The information appears in the in-
strument panel screen in the form of
an arrow accompanied by the sug-
gested gear.
In the case of driving which
makes particular demands on
the performance of the engine
(fi rm pressure on the accelerator
pedal, for example, when overtak-
ing...), the system will not recom-
mend a gear change.
The system never suggests:
- engaging fi rst gear,
- engaging reverse gear,
- engaging a lower gear.

STOP & START
The Stop & Start system puts the en-
gine temporarily on standby - STOP
mode - during stops in the traffi c
(red lights, traffi c jams, or other...).
The engine restarts automatically -
START mode - as soon as you want
to move off. The restart takes place
instantly, quickly and silently.
Perfect for urban use, the Stop &
Start system reduces fuel consump-
tion and exhaust emissions as well
as the noise level when stationary.
Operation
- with the 6-speed electronic
gearbox system, at speeds be-
low 4 mph (6 km/h), press the
brake pedal or put the selector
lever in position N .
Going into engine STOP mode
The "ECO" warning lamp
comes on in the instrument
panel and the engine goes
into standby: If your vehicle is fi tted
with the system, a time
counter calculates the
sum of the periods in
STOP mode during a journey. It rests
itself to zero every time the ignition
is switched on with the key.
For your comfort, during parking
maoeuvres, STOP mode is not avail-
able for a few seconds after coming
out of reverse gear.
STOP mode does not affect the func-
tionality of the vehicle, such as for ex-
ample, braking, power steering...
Never refuel with the engine
in STOP mode; you must
switch off the ignition with the key. Special cases: STOP mode
unavailable
In this case, the "ECO"
warning lamp fl ashes for a
few seconds then goes off.

This operation is perfectly normal.
STOP mode is not invoked when:
- the driver's door is open,
- the driver's seat belt is not fas-
tened,
- the vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph (10 km/h) since the last
engine start using the key,
- the electric parking brake is ap- plied or being applied,
- the engine is needed to maintain a comfortable temperature in the
passenger compartment,
- demisting is active,
- some special conditions (bat- tery charge, engine tempera-
ture, braking assistance, ambient
temperature...) where the engine
is needed to assure control of a
system.

ENERGY ECONOMY MODE
System which manages the duration
of use of certain functions to con-
serve a suffi cient level of charge in
the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can
still use functions such as the audio
and telematics system, windscreen
wipers, dipped headlamps, courtesy
lights, etc. for a maximum combined
duration of thirty minutes.
Switching to economy mode
Once the thirty minutes are over, a
message appears on the multi-function
screen indicating that the vehicle has
switched to economy mode and the
active functions are put on standby.
If the telephone is being used at this
time:
- it will be maintained for 5 minutes with radio-CD hands-free kit,
-
it will be interrupted after 10 minutes
with the MyWay audio-navigation
system,
- you can complete your call with the NaviDrive system.
This period may be signifi cantly re-
duced if the battery charge is low. Exiting economy mode
These functions are reactivated auto-matically next time the vehicle is
driven.

 In order to resume the use of
these functions immediately,
start the engine and let it run for
a few minutes.
The time available will then be dou-
ble the duration for which the en-
gine was left running. However, this
time will always be between fi ve and
thirty minutes.
A fl at battery prevents the en-
gine from starting (refer to the
corresponding paragraph).
