Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning
In order for these systems to be fully
effective, follow the operation and
maintenance guidelines below:
F
T
o ensure that the air is distributed
evenly, keep the external air intake
grilles at the base of the windscreen, the
nozzles, the vents, the air outlets and
the air extractor in the boot free from
obstructions.
F

D
o not cover the sunshine sensor,
located on the dashboard; this is used
for regulation of the automatic air
conditioning system.
F

O
perate the air conditioning system for
at least 5
to 10 minutes once or twice
a
month to keep it in per fect working
o r d e r.
F

E
nsure that the passenger compartment
filter is in good condition and replace
the filter elements periodically. We
recommend the use of a
combined
passenger compartment filter. Thanks to
its special active additive, it helps both to
purify the air breathed by the occupants
and to keep the passenger compartment
clean (reduction of allergic symptoms,
bad odours and greasy deposits). If after an extended stop in sunshine,
the interior temperature is very high, first
ventilate the passenger compartment for
a
few moments.
Put the air flow control at a
setting high
enough to quickly change the air in the
passenger compartment.
The condensation created by the air
conditioning results in a
discharge of water
under the vehicle which is per fectly normal.
Stop & Star t
The heating and air conditioning systems
only work when the engine is running.
To maintain a
comfortable temperature
in the passenger compartment, you may
temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start
system.
For more information on Stop & Star t ,
refer to the corresponding section.
F
T o ensure correct operation of the
air conditioning system, you are also
advised to have it checked regularly as
recommended in the Maintenance and
Warranty Guide.
F

I
f the system does not produce cold
air, switch it off and contact the dealer
network or a
qualified workshop.
When towing the maximum load on a
steep
gradient in high temperatures, switching off
the air conditioning increases the available
engine power and so improves the towing
ability.
To avoid the windows misting up and
deterioration in the quality of the air:
-

d
o not drive for too long with the
ventilation switched off.
-

d
o not keep air recirculation set for an
extended period.

Automatic comfort programme
Press the AUTO button. The AUTO
symbol comes on.
We recommend using this mode; it
automatically adjusts all settings for the
following functions to provide optimum
operation for the comfort level chosen:
passenger compartment temperature, air flow,
air intake and air distribution.Air conditioning on/off
The air conditioning is designed to operate
efficiently in all seasons, with the windows
closed.
It allows you:
-

t
o lower the temperature in summer,
-

t
o increase the effectiveness of the
demisting in winter, above 3°C.
Switching on
F Press the A/C button, the
button's indicator lamp comes
on.
The air conditioning does not operate
when the air flow adjustment control 2
is
in position 0 .
To cool the air more quickly, you can use
recirculation of the interior air for a
short
time. Then return to the intake of exterior
a i r.
Switching off
F Press the A/C button again, the
button's indicator lamp goes off.
Switching the system off could result in
discomfort (humidity, condensation).

Ease of use and comfort

For your convenience, the settings are
stored between two starts of the vehicle.
When the engine is cold, the air flow will
only reach its optimum level gradually
to prevent too much cold air being
distributed.
Temperature adjustment
The value shown on the display is a level of
c omfort, not a temperature in degrees Celsius
or Fahrenheit.
Press the 5
and 6 buttons to
change this value. A setting of
around 21


provides optimum
comfort. Nonetheless, depending
on your needs, a setting between
18
and 24 is typical.
This system is designed to operate effectively
in all seasons, with the windows closed.
On entering the vehicle, if the interior is
very cold or very warm, there is no need
to change the value displayed in order to
obtain the comfort required. The system
compensates automatically and corrects
the temperature difference as quickly as
possible.
Automatic visibility programme
For more information on Front demist -
defrost , refer to the corresponding section.
Manual control
It is possible to manually adjust one or more
functions, while keeping the other functions in
automatic mode.
The AUTO symbol goes off.
To return to automatic mode, press the AUTO
button.
Switching to manual mode may result in
some discomfort (temperature, humidity,
odour, misting) and is not optimal for
comfort.
For maximum cooling or heating of the
passenger compartment, it is possible
to exceed the minimum value 14
or the
maximum value 28.
