EASE OF USE and COMFORT
In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation
and maintenance guidelines below:
)
To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct
the exterior air intake grilles located at the base of the
windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as well
as the air extractor located in the boot.
)
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard;
this is used for regulation of the air conditioning system.
)
Operate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to
10 minutes, once or twice a month to keep it in good
working order.
)
Ensure that the passenger compartment fi lter is in good
condition and have the fi lter elements replaced regularly
(refer to the "Checks" section).
We recommend the use of a combined passenger
compartment fi lter. Thanks to its special active additive,
it contributes to the purifi cation of the air breathed by the
occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compartment
(reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy
deposits).
)
To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system,
you are also advised to refer to the servicing and warranty
booklet for information on when it should be checked.
)
If the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high
temperatures, switching off the air conditioning increases the
available engine power and so improves towing performance.
The condensation created by the air conditioning results in a
discharge of water under the vehicle which is perfectly normal.
If after an extended stop in sunshine, the interior temperature is
very high, fi rst ventilate the cabin for a few moments.
Put the air fl ow control at a setting high enough to quickly change
the air in the cabin.
The air conditioning system does not contain chlorine and does
not present any danger to the ozone layer.

If the indicator lamp no longer fl ashes, the failure was temporary, the
system has resumed normal operation. To retract the spoiler, refer to

If the indicator lamp fl ashes again and the spoiler is still raised, the
system is still faulty.
