MULTIFUNCTION DISPLAYS
A few definitions…
When the range falls below 20 miles
( 3 0 k m ) , d a s h e s a r e d i s p l a y e d . A f t e r fi l l -
ing with at least 5 litres of fuel, the range
is recalculated and is displayed when it
e x c e e d s 6 0 m i l e s ( 1 0 0 k m ) .
If dashes are displayed continu-
ously while driving in place of the
digits, contact a PEUGEOT dealer. This function is only displayed from
20 mph (30 km/h).

change in the current consumption. Range
(km or miles)
This indicates the distance
which can still be travelled
with the fuel remaining in the tank in
relation to the average consumption
over the last few miles (kilometres) trav-
elled. Current consumption
(l/100 km or km/l or mpg)
This is the average quantity of
fuel consumed during the last
few seconds.
Average consumption
(l/100 km or km/l or mpg)
This is the average quantity
of fuel consumed since the
last trip computer zero reset. Average speed
(km/h or mph)
This is the average speed
calculated since the last trip
computer zero reset (igni-
tion on).
Distance travelled
(km or miles)
This indicates the distance trav-
elled since the last trip computer
zero reset. Distance remaining to
destination
(km or miles)
This is the distance remaining

COMFORT
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
m i x i n g t h e a i r o f t h e v a r i o u s c i r c u i t s . The air distribution control enables you
to diffuse the air in the passenger com-
partment combining several air vents.
T h e a i r fl o w c o n t r o l e n a b l e s y o u t o i n -
crease or reduce the speed of the ven-
tilation blower.
Air intake
The air circulating in the passenger com-
p a r t m e n t i s fi l t e r e d a n d o r i g i n a t e s e i t h e r
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,
- t h e a i r fl o w ,
- the air distribution,
- the de-icing and demisting,
- the manual or automatic air condi- tioning controls.
Air diffusion
1. Windscreen de-icing or demisting
vents.
2. Front side window de-icing or de-
misting vents.
3. Side adjustable and closing vents.
4. Central adjustable and closing
vents.
5. Air outlets to the front footwells.
6. Adjustable and closing vents for the
rear passengers.
7. Air outlets to the rear footwells.

COMFORT
The air conditioning system does
not contain chlorine and does not
present any danger to the ozone
layer.
In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the o peration and main-
tenance rules below:
If the interior temperature remains very high after the vehicle has been
parked in the sun for a considerable time, do not hesitate t o ventilate the
passenger compartment for a few minutes.
P l a c e t h e a i r fl o w c o n t r o l a t a s u f fi c i e n t l e v e l t o p r o v i d e a n a d e q u a t e r e -

Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the fascia; th is is used for
regulation of the 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.

breathed by the occupants and the cleanness of the passenger compartment
(reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and gre asy deposits).
To guarantee correct operation of the air conditioning syste m, you are also
advised to have it checked regularly.
If the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a PEUGEOT
dealer.
W h e n t o w i n g t h e m a x i m u m l o a d o n a s t e e p g r a d i e n t i n h i g h t e m p e r a t u r e s ,
switching off the air conditioning permits the recovery of engi ne power and
therefore improvement of the towing capacity.
The condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of
water under the vehicle which is perfectly normal.

COMFORT When the engine is cold, to prevent
too great a distribution of cold air,

level gradually.
In cold weather, it favours the dis-
tribution of warm air to the wind-
screen, side windows and footwells
only. On entering the vehicle, if the in-
terior temperature is much colder
or warmer than the comfort value,
there is no need to change the val-
ue displayed in order to obtain the
comfort required. The system cor-
rects the difference in temperature
automatically and as quickly as
possible.
The air conditioning only operates when
the engine is running. The driver and his front pas-
senger can each adjust the
temperature to their require-
ments.
Turn control 2 or 3 to the left or to
the right respectively to decrease or
increase this value..
A setting around the value 21 provides
optimum comfort. However, depend-
ing on your requirements, a setting be-
tween 18 and 24 is normal.
You are advised to avoid a left/right set-
ting difference of more than 3. 4. Automatic visibility programme
