COMFORT
For even air distribution, take care not
to obstruct the exterior air intake grille
located at the bottom of the windscreen,
the vents, the air outlets under the front
seats and the air extractor located be-
hind the fl aps in the boot. The water formed by the air conditioning
condensation is discharged via an open-
ing provided for this purpose. Therefore,
a puddle of water may form underneath
the vehicle when stationary.
If the system does not produce cold air,
do not use it and have it checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer. AUTOMATIC REGULATION OF TIC REGULATION OF
THE AIR CONDITIONING
Do not cover the temperature and humidity
sensor
2 and the sunshine sensor 7 .
They are required for regulation of the
air conditioning.
Advice on operation
In hot weather, in order to obtain
intense ventilation, it is advis-
able to use vents 1 and 4 only.
If, when the vehicle has been
parked in the sun for a long time,
the interior temperature remains
very high, fi rst ventilate the pas-
senger compartment for a few
minutes. Switch off the air conditioning
when the climatic conditions
permit.
Use of the automatic regulation of the
air conditioning is recommended. It per-
mits automatic and optimised control of
all of the following functions: air fl ow,
passenger compartment temperature
and air distribution, by means of various
sensors (ambient temperature, interior
temperature, sunshine), so preventing
the need for you to change your set-
tings other than the value displayed.
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load on a
steep gradient in hot weather), switch-
ing off the air conditioning saves engine
power and therefore improves the tow-
ing capacity.
Close the windows to benefi t from the
full effectiveness of the air conditioning.
Ensure that the passenger compart-
ment fi lter is in good condition. Have
the fi lter elements replaced periodically.
If you drive in a dusty environment, re-
place it twice as often.
The air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and is not harmful to
the ozone layer.
Operate the air conditioning system for
5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month,
to keep it in good working order.
