Vehicle rAnge: recommendations (2/2)
heating levels
The use of heating or air-conditioning
reduces vehicle range.
Before using the vehicle, you are rec -
ommended to favour “programmable
heating” mode to help maintain the ve-
hicle’s optimum range (please refer to
the information on “Air-conditioning:
programming” in Section 3).
Keep your usage of heating or air-con-
ditioning down to a minimum while driv-
ing. Favour ECO mode - please see the
information on “Automatic air-condition -
ing” in Section 3.
t yres
An under-inflated tyre increases energy
consumption. Comply with the speci -
fied tyre pressures for your vehicle.
When driving, use tyres made by the
same manufacturer, with the same di -
mensions, type and structure as the
original tyres. The use of non-regula -
tion tyres significantly reduces vehicle
range.
Please see the information on “Tyre
pressure” in Section 4.
Vehicle loading
Avoid pointlessly overloading your ve -
hicle.

Automatic mode
The automatic climate control system
guarantees comfort in the passen -
ger compartment and good visibility
(except in the event of extreme condi -
tions), whilst optimising consumption.
The system controls the ventilation
speed, air distribution, air recircula -
tion, and starting and stopping the air
conditioning and air temperature. This
mode consists of a choice of three pro-
grammes:
E co : Limits the electricity consump -
tion of the air-conditioning system to
optimise vehicle range. The tempera -
ture is too low - Press button 2 . This
mode sets the passenger temperature
control as the driver’s temperature con-
trol.
A uTo : allows the selected comfort
level to be best attained, depending on
the exterior conditions. Press button 3.
FAST : emphasises the actions of the
system to reach the desired comfort
level more quickly. Press button 4.

the most suitable amount of air to reach
and maintain the desired comfort level.
You can still adjust the ventilation speed
by pressing buttons 12 to increase or
reduce the ventilation speed.
In this case, the ventilation speed,
which is no longer controlled automat-
ically, appears in zone A on the dis -
play 13.

tell-tale which indicates the operat -
ing status.

The displayed temperature values
show a comfort level.
When starting the engine, increas -
ing or decreasing the value dis -
played will not allow the com -
fort level to be reached any more
quickly. The system will always op-
timise the temperature increase or
decrease (the ventilation system
does not start instantly at maximum
speed: it gradually increases). This
may take several minutes.
Generally speaking, unless there is
a particular reason not to, the dash-
board air vents should remain open.
Favour the use of automatic mode, selecting one of the automatic pro -
grammes Eco, AuT o or FAST.
In automatic mode (indicator light for button 3 on), all heating and air conditioning
functions are controlled by the system.
You can also change the system selection, in this case, indicator light for button 3
will go out and the changed function, which is no longer controlled by the system,
is shown on display 13.
To return to automatic mode, press one of programmes: Eco, AuTo or FAST.
