vehicle operating status can it be
ascertained whether the situation
is normal or whether a fault has oc-
curred.
Indicator and warning lights
Visual indicators which inform the driv-
er when a system comes into opera-
tion (operation or deactivation indicator
lights) or of the occurrence of a fault
(warning light).
Associated warnings
The lighting of certain indicator/warning
lights may be accompanied by an audible
signal and a message on the multifunction
display. Operation indicator lights
The lighting of one of the following indica-
tor lights confi rms that the corresponding

VENTILATION
System which creates and maintains
comfortable conditions in the vehicle’s
passenger compartment. Air treatment
The incoming air follows various routes
depending on the controls selected by
the driver:
- direct arrival in the passenger com-
partment (air intake),
- passage through a heating circuit (heating),
- passage through a cooling circuit (air conditioning). The temperature control enables you to
obtain the level of comfort required by
mixing the air of the various circuits.
The air distribution control enables you
to diffuse the air in the passenger com-
partment combining several air vents.
The air flow control enables you to
increase or reduce the speed of the
ventilation blower.
Air intake
The air circulating in the passenger com-
partment is fi ltered and originates either
from the outside via the grille located at
the base of the windscreen or from the
inside in air recirculation mode. Control panel
The controls of this system are grouped
together on control panel
A on the cen-
tre console. Depending on the model,
the functions offered are:
- the level of comfort required,
- the air fl ow,
- the air distribution,
- the de-icing and demisting,
- the manual or automatic air condi- tioning controls.

heating of the passenger compart-
ment by reducing the effects of the
sun’s rays (ultra-violet). It consists
of a refl ective layer, which also
blocks certain radio-electric signals
(toll card payments, ...).
