Additional heater
Vehicles which are fi tted with an HDI
engine may be fi tted with automatic
additional heating to improve your
comfort.
When the engine is idling or the ve-
hicle is stationary, it is quite normal to
notice a high-pitched whistling noise
and a slight emission of smoke and
odour.
Centre and side vents.
This setting is recommended for high
temperatures. Recirculation of interior air.
This position prevents exterior odours
and smoke entering the passenger
compartment.
Used simultaneously with the air con-
ditioning, recirculation enables both
heating and cooling performance to
be improved.
Used without the air conditioning,
recirculation may result in the forma-
tion of mist on the windows.
As soon as possible, position the control
in the exterior air intake position.

tioning is on) to red (hot).

must travel in the "rearwards-
facing" position in the front.
"Forwards-facing"
When a "forwards-facing" child seat
is installed on the front passenger
