VENTILATION

1. Windscreen de-icing or demisting
vents

2. Front window de-icing or demisting
vents

3. Side vents

4. Centre vents

5. Air outlets to the front passengers’
feet

6. Air outlets to the rear passengers’
feet Recommendations for
use and notes
If the interior temperature re-
mains very high following a prolonged
period parked in the sun, do not hesi-
tate to ventilate the passenger com-
partment for a few minutes.
To obtain uniform air distribution, take
care not to obstruct the exterior air in-
take grille located at the bottom of the
windscreen, the vents, the air outlets
under the front seats and the air ex-
tractor in the boot.

In cold weather, in order to obtain
uniform comfort, more rapid de-
misting or if the l ow of air on your
face feels uncomfortable, it is ad-
visable to close vents 3 and 4.
When washing the vehicle using high
pressure equipment, do not direct
the jet towards the exterior air intake
grille.
To obtain optimum demisting, we re-
commend that the windows are kept
clean on the inside of the vehicle.
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load on a
steep gradient when the temperature
is high), cutting off the air conditioning
permits the recovery of engine power
and, therefore, an increase in the tow-
ing capacity. For the air conditioning to be fully
effective, the windows must be
closed.
Ensure that the passenger compartment
i lter is in good condition. Have the i lter
elements replaced regularly. If you
drive in a dusty environment, replace
them twice as often.
The air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and does not present
any danger to the ozone layer.
Operate the air conditioning for 5 to
10 minutes, once or twice a month to
keep it in perfect working order.
The water resulting from the conden-
sation of the air conditioning system
is discharged via an opening provided
for this purpose. Therefore, a puddle
of water may form underneath the ve-
hicle when stationary.
If the system does not produce cold
air, do not use it and contact your
PEUGEOT dealer.
Flashing of the points separating the
setting value digits indicates a malfunc-
tion of the air conditioning. Contact your
PEUGEOT dealer.
Use of the automatic regula-
tion of the air conditioning is
recommended. It permits opti-
mised automatic control of all
of the following functions: air l ow, pas-
senger compartment temperature and
air distribution, using various sensors
(exterior temperature and sunshine),
so there is no need to change your
reference settings other than the value
displayed.

AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONING (DUAL ZONE)

 Press the "AUTO"
button(s).
Note: when the visibility programme 9
or the air intake/recirculation 10 is se-
lected, the passenger's "AUTO" but-
ton is deactivated; the indicator light
of the corresponding button l ashes
temporarily.

3 - Adjustment of the driver's
temperature

4 - Adjustment of the passenger
temperature

 Press the up or down
arrow to change the temper-
ature on the driver's side 3 or
passenger side 4 .
The value indicated on the
display corresponds to a lev-
el of comfort and not to a temperature
in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit, de-
pending on the choice of coni guration
validated on the display.
A setting around the value 21 makes it
possible to obtain optimum comfort. How-
ever, depending on your requirements, a
setting between 18 and 24 is usual.
The system is automatically set to the
value required.
Depending on the level of comfort se-
lected, the system controls the air dis-
tribution, l ow, temperature and intake
of air in order to guarantee comfort
and an adequate circulation of air in
the passenger compartment. You do
not have to make any adjustments.
The "AUTO" symbol is displayed.

Dual zone: this is the differentiated
regulation of the temperature and air
distribution on the driver's side and the
front passenger side.
The driver and his front passenger can
each adjust the temperature and the
distribution of the air to suit their re-
quirements.

1 - Driver's automatic comfort pro-
gramme

2 - Passenger automatic comfort
programme
This is the usual air conditioning sys-
tem operating mode.
When the engine is cold, to
prevent too great a distribu-
tion of cold air, the air l ow will
only reach its optimum level
progressively. On entering the vehicle, the
interior temperature may be
much colder (or warmer) than
is comfortable. There is no
need to change the temperature dis-
played in order to obtain rapidly the
level of comfort required.
The automatic regulation of the air condi-
tioning will use its maximum performance
settings to correct the temperature differ-
ence as quickly as possible.

To limit the discomfort resulting from use of the manual controls, we recommend
the following settings:
Control via the manual controls
It is possible to adjust one or more
functions manually while leaving the
other functions in automatic mode.
The
"AUTO" button indicator light is
switched off.
Switching to manual mode may result
in discomfort (temperature, humidity,
odour, condensation) and is not ad-
vantageous for comfort.
To return to automatic mode, press the

"AUTO" button.

In certain cases, the comfort
programme may not be suf-
i cient to demist or de-ice the
windows (humidity, several
passengers, ice).

 In this case, select the visibility pro-
gramme and open the side vents in
order to clear the windows quickly.
It controls the air conditioning, air
l ow and intake and distributes the
ventilation to the windscreen and
side windows.
The symbols "A/C" , "AUTO" and air
l ow (fan) are displayed.
Once the inconvenience has been elimi-
nated, pressing button 1 or 2 returns the
system to the comfort setting.

 Press the OFF button.

distribution
Successive presses of these buttons
enable you to direct the l ow of air on
the driver's side or on the passenger
side alternately towards:
- the windscreen and footwells,
- the footwells,
- the centre vent, side vent and foot- wells,
- the centre vent and side vent,
- the windscreen.

rioration of the quality of the air in the
passenger compartment, ensure that
an adequate l ow of air is maintained.
This action switches off the display and
the indicator lights and deactivates all
of the functions of the system, with the
exception of the rear screen demisting.
The temperature-related comfort is no
longer controlled (temperature, humid-
ity, condensation).
Avoid driving for too long with the air
conditioning deactivated.

 Pressing this button again or but-
tons 5 , 7 or 8 or one of the two

"AUTO" buttons reactivates the

MIRRORS
Automatically adjustable mirrors
for parking *
These allow you to see the ground
(kerb, wall...) when carrying out park-
ing manoeuvres in reverse gear. The end of the driver and pas-
senger mirrors is convex in or-
der to reduce the "blind spot"
(area at edge dei ned by a
dotted line).
As a result, objects observed in the
driver and passenger mirrors are, in re-
ality, closer than they appear.
This must be taken into account to
judge correctly the distance of vehi-
cles approaching from behind.
Tilting the mirror to the parking
position

 Turn control A to the right or to the
left.

 Engage reverse gear.
The exterior mirror corresponding to the side on which you are
parking tilts downwards.
