TRIP COMPUTER
orTRIP: access to the trip
computer displays.
Each successive press on the button
located at the end of the wipers stalk
displays different information.
- the "vehicle" tab with:
• the range and the current consumption,
- tab "1" (route 1) with:
• the average consumption, the distance travelled and the average
speed calculated over route "1",
- tab "2" (route 2) with the same
characteristics for a second route.
Range (km or miles)
Current consumption
(l/100 or km/l or mpg)
This is the average quantity of
fuel consumed during the last few
seconds.
This function is displayed only when
the vehicle is travelling at a speed
greater than 20 mph (30 km/h).
LIGHTING RHEOSTAT
Zero reset
When the required route is displayed,
press the control for more than two
seconds.
With the lights on, press the button
to vary the intensity of the lighting of
the instruments and controls. When
the lighting reaches the minimum (or
maximum) setting, release the button
then press it again to increase (or
reduce) the brightness.
As soon as the lighting is of the required
brightness, release the button.
This shows the distance that can still
be covered with the fuel remaining
in the tank in accordance with the
average consumption over the last
few miles (kilometres).
This figure may increase if there is a
change in the style of driving or the
road surface, producing a significant
drop in current consumption.
When the range is less than 20 miles
(30 km), four segments are displayed.
After filling with fuel, the range is
displayed when it exceeds 62 miles
(100 km).
If horizontal segments are displayed
for long periods instead of digits,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer.

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 behind the flaps in
the boot.
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load on a
steep gradient in hot weather), cutting
off the air conditioning permits recovery
of the engine power and therefore
improvement of the towing capacity.
Pull the blinds on the rear door
windows and the rear screen.
Close the windows to benefit from the
full effectiveness of the air conditioning.
Ensure that the passenger compartment
filter is in good condition. Have the
filter elements replaced periodically.
If you drive in a dusty environment,
replace 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 perfect working
order.The water formed by the air conditioning
condensation is discharged via an
opening 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 contact your
PEUGEOT dealer.
1.
Centre panel vents.
2. Temperature and humidity
sensor.
3. Adjustment of the glove box
air flow (see section "Interior
layout").
4. Air outlet to passenger footwells.
5. Two ventilation vents at the rear
at the base of the centre console
between the passengers.
6. Side vents.
7. Front windows de-icing or
demisting vents.
8. Windscreen de-icing or demisting
vents.
9. Sunshine sensor.
10. Air diffuser grille.AUTOMATIC REGULATION OF
THE AIR CONDITIONING
Use of the automatic regulation of
the air conditioning is recommended.
It permits automatic and optimised
control of all of the following functions:
air flow, passenger compartment
temperature, air distribution, economy
or air recirculation mode, by means of
various sensors (exterior temperature,
interior temperature, sunshine), so
preventing the need for you to change
your reference settings other than the
value displayed. In addition, a humidity
sensor anticipates the formation of
condensation in the vehicle during its
use.
Air diffuser
The air diffuser grille, located at the
top of the centre console, significantly
improves distribution and flows and
prevents air currents, while maintaining
an optimum temperature inside the
passenger compartment.
Do not cover the temperature and
humidity sensor
2 and the sunshine
sensor 9.
They are required for regulation of the
air conditioning.
Advice on operation
To obtain even ventilation,
avoid closing the air diffuser
grille 10.
In hot weather, in order to obtain
intense ventilation, you can close the
air diffuser grille 10 and use vents 1
and 6 only.
If, when the vehicle has been parked
in the sun for a long time, the interior
temperature remains very high, do not
hesitate to ventilate the passenger
compartment for a few minutes.
