VENTILATION
System which creates and maintains
good conditions of comfort and visibil-
ity in the vehicle’s passenger compart-
ment.
Controls
The incoming air follows various routes
depending on the controls selected by
the driver.
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 making use of several
air vents.
The air fl ow control enables you to in-
crease or reduce the speed of the ven-
tilation blower. These controls are grouped together on
control panel
A on the centre console.
Depending on the model, the functions
offered are:
- the level of thermal comfort required,
- air fl ow,
- air distribution,
- demisting/defrosting,
- manual or digital air conditioning controls.
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.
Air distribution

1. Windscreen demisting/defrosting vents.

2. Front side window demisting/de-
frosting vents.

3. Side adjustable air vents.

4. Central adjustable air vents.

5. Air outlets to the front footwells.

6. Adjustable air vents for the rear pas-
sengers.

7. Air outlets to the rear footwells.

The air conditioning system
does not contain chlorine and
does not present any danger
to the ozone layer. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR VENTILATION AND AIR CONDITIONING
In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and
maintenance guidelines below:

 If the interior temperature remains very high aft er the vehicle has been parked
in the sun for a considerable time, fi rst ventilate the passenger compartment
for a few minutes.
Place the air fl ow control at a suffi cient level to provide an adequate renewal
of air in the passenger compartment.

 To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obst ruct the exterior air
intake grilles located at the base of the windscreen, the n ozzles, the vents
and the air outlets, as well as the air extractor located in the boot.

 Use in preference the intake of exterior air as prolonged use of the air recir-
culation may cause misting of the windows and side windows.

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

 Operate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, on ce or twice a
month to keep it in perfect working order.

 Ensure that the passenger compartment fi lter is in good condit ion and have
the fi lter elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks" sectio n).
We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment fi lter. Thanks
to its second special active fi lter, it contributes to the pu rifi cation of the air
breathed by the occupants and the cleanliness of the passenge r compart-
ment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposit s).

 To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also ad-
vised to have it checked regularly.

 If the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a PEUGEOT
dealer.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures,
switching off the air conditioning saves engine power and i mproves towing ca-
pacity.
The condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of water
under the vehicle which is perfectly normal.

2. Air fl ow adjustment
 Turn the dial from posi-
tion 1 to position 5 to
obtain a comfortable air
fl ow.
Windscreen, side windows
and front-rear footwells. Footwells, front-rear
(closing the vents increases
the fl ow to the footwells).
Central, side and rear vents.

 Turn the dial from blue
(cold) to red (hot) to adjust
the temperature to your
requirements.
Windscreen and side windows.
1. Temperature adjustment
The air distribution can be
adapted by placing the dial in
an intermediate position.
The air conditioning can only operate
with the engine running. 4. Air intake/Air recirculation
The intake of exterior air limits misting
of the windscreen and side windows.
The recirculation of interior air insulates
the passenger compartment from exte-
rior odours and smoke.
Return to exterior air intake as soon as
possible to prevent deterioration of the
air quality and demisting performance.

 If you place the air fl ow
control in position 0 (deac-
tivation of the system), the
temperature is no longer
maintained at a comfort-
able level. However, a
slight fl ow of air, due to the
movement of the vehicle,
can still be felt.
3. Air distribution adjustment
 Press the button to recir-
culate the interior air. The
indicator lamp comes on
to confi rm this.

 Press the button again to permit the
intake of exterior air. The indicator
lamp switches off to confi rm this.

Demisting/defrosting
The control button is located
on the air conditioning system
control panel.
REAR SCREEN DEMIST/DEFROST

 Switch off the demist/
defrost of the rear screen
and door mirrors as soon
as it is no longer necessary
as lower current consump-
tion results in reduced fuel
consumption.
Switching on
The rear screen demist/defrost can only
operate when the engine is running.

 Press this button to demist/defrost
the rear screen and the door mir-
rors. The indicator lamp associated
with the button comes on.
Switching off
The demist/defrost switches off auto-
matically to prevent an excessive con-
sumption of current.

 It is possible to stop the demist/
defrost operation before it is switched
off automatically by pressing the but-
ton again. The indicator lamp associ-
ated with the button switches off.
5. Air conditioning On/Off
The air conditioning is de-
signed to operate effectively in
all seasons, with the windows
closed.
It enables you to:
- lower the temperature, in summer,
- increase the effectiveness of the demisting in winter, above 0 °C.
Switching on

 Press the "A/C" button, the associ-
ated indicator lamp comes on.

The air conditioning does not op-
erate when the air fl ow adjustment
control 2 is in position "0".
Switching off

 Press the "A/C" button again, the as-
sociated indicator lamp switches off.

 switch on the air conditioning by
pressing the "A/C" button.
The marking on the control
panel indicates the position of
the controls to quickly demist
or defrost the windscreen and
side windows:

 place the air intake control 4 in the
"Exterior air intake" position (indica-
tor lamp off),

 place the air distribution dial 3 in the
"Windscreen position",

 place the air fl ow dial 2 in position 5
(maximum),
