Advice on operation and
notes
Place the air flow control at a level
sufficient to ensure an adequate
renewal of air in the passenger
compartment.
When the air flow control is in the
OFF position (system switched off),
temperature-related comfort is no
longer guaranteed. However, a slight
flow of air, due to the movement of
the vehicle, can still be felt.
Select the air distribution which is
most suited to your requirements and
the weather conditions.
Change the temperature setting
progressively for greater comfort.
Place the air intake control in the
“Exterior air” position, this facilitates
demisting.
If the interior temperature remains
very high following a long period
parked in the sun, do not hesitate to
ventilate the passenger compartment
for a few minutes.
To obtain a perfectly uniform
distribution of air, do not cover the
exterior air intake grille, the vents,
the air passages and the air outlets
in the footwells. In certain cases of particularly
arduous use (towing the maximum
load on a steep gradient in a high
temperature), cutting off the air
conditioning permits recovery of
the engine power and, therefore
improvement of the towing capacity.
Ensure that the passenger
compartment filter, located by the
windscreen, under the bonnet, is
in good condition. Have the filter
elements replaced regularly. If you
drive in a dusty environment, change
them twice as often.
The air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and does not present
any danger to the ozone layer.
Operate the air conditioning system
for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a
month to keep it in perfect working
order.
The water formed by the condensation
of the air conditioning system is
discharged via an opening provided
for this purpose. Therefore, a puddle
may form underneath the vehicle
when stationary.
If the system does not produce cold
air, do not use it and contact your
PEUGEOT dealer.

DE-ICING AND DEMISTING
When the engine is running,
pressing this button de-ices
the rear screen and exterior
mirrors.
It switches off automatically, after
approximately twelve minutes*, to
prevent an excessive consumption
of current. Pressing the button
again restarts operation for twelve
minutes.
It is possible to stop the operation of
the de-icing before it is switched off
automatically by pressing the button
again.
Switch off the de-icing as soon as
you consider this necessary as low
current consumption reduces fuel
consumption.
Manual demisting*
To quickly demist the windscreen and
side windows:
- switch on the air conditioning,
- place the temperature and air flow controls in the maximum position,
- close the central vents,
- place the exterior air intake control on the left, in the “Exterior Air”
position.
Automatic demisting, visibility
programme*
In some cases, the AUTO programme
may not be sufficient to demist
the windscreen and side windows
(humidity, several passengers,
ice...).
* According to version or country.

Intake of exterior air.
Air recirculation.
The recirculation of interior air
prevents exterior odours and
smoke entering the passenger
compartment.
The intake of exterior air prevents and
eliminates misting of the windscreen
and side windows.
Used simultaneously with the air
conditioning, air recirculation improves
air conditioning performance.
Used in a damp climate, air
recirculation may result in misting of
the windows.
Move the manual control 5 to the
right to the “Interior air recirculation”
position.
Move the manual control 5 to the left

AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONING
The air conditioning can only operate when the engine is running.
Automatic operation
2. Control by the AUTO
programme
Press the “AUTO” button.
We recommend that you
use this mode: it provides
optimised automatic control
of all of the functions, passenger
compartment temperature, air flow,
air distribution and air recirculation,
in accordance with the comfort value
that you have chosen. This system is
designed to operate effectively in all
seasons, with the windows closed. Note:
for your comfort, the values
set when the engine is switched
off are retained on re-starting if
the temperature in the passenger
compartment has not changed
significantly; otherwise, operation
resumes in automatic mode.
When the engine is cold, to prevent
too great a distribution of cold air, the
ventilation will only reach its optimum
level gradually.
On entering the vehicle, if the interior
temperature is much colder or warmer
than is comfortable, there is no need
to change the value displayed in
order to reach the required level of
comfort. The system eliminates the
temperature difference automatically
and as quickly as possible.
Manual operation
If you wish, you can make a different
choice from that offered by the
system by changing a setting. The
other functions will still be controlled
automatically.
Pressing the AUTO button returns
the system to completely automatic
operation.
1. Temperature adjustment
The value indicated on the
display corresponds to a
level of comfort and not to
a temperature in degrees
Celsius or Fahrenheit.
Press the arrows 1 (up and down)
to change this value. A setting
around 21 enables a comfortable
temperature to be obtained.

ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS
The incorrect installation of a child
seat in a vehicle compromises the
child’s protection in the event of an
accident.
Remember to fasten the seat belts
or the child seat harnesses keeping
the slack in relation to the child’s
body to a minimum , even for short
journeys.
For optimum installation of the
“forward facing” child seat, ensure
that the back of the child seat is in
contact with the back of the vehicle’s
seat and that the head restraint does
not cause any discomfort.
If the head restraint has to be
removed, ensure that it is stored or
attached securely to prevent it from
being thrown around the vehicle in
the event of sharp braking. Installing a booster seat
The chest part of the seat belt must
be positioned on the child’s shoulder
without touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat
belt passes correctly over the child’s
thighs.
PEUGEOT recommends the use of a
booster seat which has a back, fitted
with a seat belt guide at shoulder
level.
* According to version.
As a safety precaution, do not leave:
- one or more children alone and
unsupervised in a vehicle,
- a child or an animal in a vehicle which is exposed to the sun, with
the windows closed,
- the keys within reach of children inside the vehicle.
To prevent accidental opening of the
doors, use the “Child lock”*.
Take care not to open the rear
windows by more than one third*.
To protect young children from the
rays of the sun, fit side blinds on the
rear windows.
Children under the age of 10 must not
travel in the “forward facing” position
on the front passenger seat, unless
the rear seats are already occupied
by other children, cannot be used or
are absent.
Disarm the passenger air bag* when
a “rear facing” child seat is installed
on the front seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the air
bag were to inflate.
