AIR CONDITIONING
This system automatically adjusts the temperature, the fl o w o f a i r a n d t h e d i s t r i b u t i o n o f a i r i n s i d e t h e c a b i n , depending on your desired comfort level.
Provided you retain automatic mode (by pressing button "AUTO") and all the air vents are open, you will main-tain an optimum comfort level, also removing humidity and misting, whatever the ambient climatic conditions.
The temperature inside the cabin cannot be lower than the temperature outside if the air conditioning is not operating.
To be effective, the air conditioning should only be used with the windows closed. If after a lengthy stop in bright sunlight the interior temperature is excessive, air the passenger compartment by opening the windows for a few moments, then close them again.
To keep the air conditioning compressor well sealed, it is essential to operate the air conditioning at least once every month.
The air conditioning operates by using power from the engine. This results in a slight increase in fuel con-sumption.
Sensors
The automatic regulation of the air conditioning inside the cabin makes use of a number of sensors, relieving you of the need to make adjustments, other than the desired cabin temperature.
Take care not to obstruct sensor A.
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 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.
The air vents to the face have thumbwheels so that you can adjust the flow of air, and grilles to orient the direction.
T h e r e a r e a i r v e n t s o n t h e fl o o r u n d e r n e a t h t h e f r o n t seats and on the rear control panel, for enhanced heat-ing of the rear seat positions.
Do not obstruct the air outlets located in the boot area.

Replacing the battery
The remote control is powered by a 6V-28L battery cell, which is included.
Information appears on the screen when this battery should be replaced.
Unclip the casing and replace the battery.
The remote control must then be re-initialised, as described on this page.
Do not discard old batteries; take them to an approved recycling point.
Re-initialisation of the remote control
P R O G R A M M A B L E H E A T I N G
If the battery is disconnected or replaced, the remote control must be re-initialised.
A f t e r s w i t c h i n g o n , w i t h i n fi v e s e c -onds press button 4 (OFF) for 1 second.
If the operation is successful, the "OK" message appears in the remote control screen.
If not, the "FAIL" message appears. Repeat the procedure.
As a secondary advantage, use of your programmable heating sys-tem allows it to be used to pre-heat the passenger compartment.
Always switch off the program-mable heating while refuelling in o r d e r t o a v o i d t h e r i s k o f fi r e o r explosion.
To avoid the risk of intoxication or asphyxiation, the program-mable heating should not be used, even for a short time, in an enclosed space such as a garage, or workshop without exhaust gas extraction.
Do not park the vehicle over i n fl a m m a b l e m a t e r i a l s ( d r y grass, dead leaves, papers…), a s t h e r e i s a r i s k o f fi r e .
The programmable heating sys-tem is supplied by the vehicle’s fuel tank. Before using it, ensure t h a t t h e r e i s s u f fi c i e n t f u e l i n t h e tank. If the low fuel warning lamp is on we strongly recommend that you do not programme the heating to come on.

If you should put in fuel that is not suitable for your vehicle's engine type, it is imperative to have the tank drained be fore you start the engine again.
While you are refuelling, the engine must be stopped and the ignition switched off.
For a petrol engine with a cata-lytic converter, unleaded fuel is compulsory.

W h e n y o u a r e s e e k i n g t o fi l l y o u r tank, do not persist after the third cut-off; that could cause your vehicle to malfunction.
Fuel must be added in quantities of more than 5 litres to be recog-nised by the fuel gauge.

E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 % ethanol) are reserved excl usively for vehicles marketed for the use of this type of fuel (BioFlex vehicles). The quality of the ethanol must comply with European standard EN 15376.
For Brazil only, special vehicles are marketed to run on fuels cont aining up to 100 % ethanol (type E100).
Quality of the fuel used for Diesel engines
The Diesel engines are perfectly compatible with biofuels which conform to current and future European standards (Diesel fuel which complies with standard EN 590 mixed with a biofuel which complies with standard EN 14214) which can be distributed at the pumps (possible incorporation of 0 to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
The use of any other type of (bio) fuel (vegetable or animal oils, domestic fuel oil, etc.) is strictly prohibited (risk of damage to the engine and fuel circuit).
