Selecting the function



- Place the switch in the LIMIT

position. The limiter is selected
but is not yet active. The screen

activating the limiter but with the
engine running.
To memorise a speed higher than the
previous one:


- press the Set +
button.
A brief press increases the speed by
1 mph (km/h).
A maintained press increases the
speed in steps of 5 mph (km/h).
To memorise a speed lower than the
previous one:


- press the Set -
button.
A brief press decreases the speed by
1 mph (km/h).
A maintained press decreases the
speed in steps of 5 mph (km/h).


Activation/Deactivation (off)

Pressing this button once activates
the limiter, pressing the button again
deactivates it (OFF).

Steering mounted controls



Exceeding the programmed
speed
Pressing the accelerator pedal in order
to exceed the programmed speed
will have no effect unless you press
the pedal fi rmly
beyond the point of
resistance
.
The limiter is deactivated temporarily
and the programmed speed fl ashes.
To return to the limiter function, reduce
your speed to below the programmed
speed.


Switching the function off



- Place the switch in position 0
or
switch off the ignition to switch the
system off.
The last programmed speed remains in
the memory.


Operating fault

The programmed speed is cleared
then replaced by three dashes.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop to have the system
checked.

Good practice



Flashing of the speed

The speed fl ashes:


- following forcing of the accelerator
point of resistance,

- when the limiter cannot prevent an
increase in the vehicle speed due
to the profi le of the road or on a
steep descent,

- in the event of sharp acceleration.
In any event, the speed limiter cannot
replace the need to observe speed
limits, nor can it replace the need for
vigilance and responsibility on the part
of the driver.
Always pay attention to the profi le
of the road and sharp acceleration
and stay in complete control of your
vehicle.
To avoid any jamming under the
pedals:


- ensure that the mat and its fi xings
on the fl oor are positioned correctly,

- never place one mat on top of
another.

Good practice

For maximum cooling or heating of the
passenger compartment, it is possible
to exceed the value 15 by turning until
LO is displayed or the value 27 by
turning until HI is displayed.
On entering the vehicle, the inside
temperature may be much colder (or
warmer) than is comfortable. There is
no advantage in changing the value
displayed in order to quickly reach the
level of comfort required. The system
will use its maximum performance to
reach the comfort value set.

DIGITAL AIR CONDITIONING WITH SEPARATE SETTINGS

Automatic operation


AUTO comfort programme
This is the normal air conditioning
system operating mode.
Driver or passenger side comfort
value
The value indicated in the screen
corresponds to a level of comfort and
not a temperature in degrees Celsius
or Fahrenheit.
Turn this control to the left
or to the right to decrease or
increase the value. A setting
around the value 21 provides
optimum comfort. However,
depending on your requirements, a
setting between 18 and 24 is usual.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor
located on the dashboard.

Press this button, the AUTO

symbol is displayed.
In accordance with the comfort
value selected, the system
controls the distribution, the
fl ow and the intake of air to guarantee
comfort and a suffi cient circulation of
air in the passenger compartment. No
further action on your part is required.
When the engine is cold, to prevent an
excessive diffusion of cold air, the air diffuser
will reach its optimum level gradually.
For your comfort, the settings are stored
when the ignition is switched off and are
reinstated the next time the vehicle is
started.
The automatic function will no longer be
maintained if you change a setting manually
(AUTO is cleared).

DEMISTING AND DEFROSTING GOOD PRACTICE

Vents


"Leave them open"

For optimum distribution and diffusion
of hot or cool air in the passenger
compartment, there are adjustable
central and side vents which can
be directed sideways (right or left)
or vertically (up or down). For your
comfort while driving, do not close
them and direct the fl ow of air towards
the windows instead.
Air vents in the footwells and directed
towards the windscreen complete the
equipment.
Do not block the vents located at the
windscreen or the air extractor located
in the boot.


Dust filter, odour filter (activated
carbon)
This fi lter traps certain dust and limits
odours.
Ensure that this fi lter is in good
condition and have all of the fi lter
elements replaced regularly.
Refer to the "Checks" section of chapter 6.


Air conditioning

In all seasons, the air conditioning
should only be used with the windows
closed. However, if the interior
temperature remains high after a
prolonged period parked in the sun, do
not hesitate to ventilate the passenger
compartment for a few minutes.
Use the AUTO mode as much as
possible as it permits optimised
control of all of the functions: air fl ow,
passenger compartment comfort
temperature, air distribution, air
intake mode or air recirculation in the
passenger compartment.
Operate the air conditioning system for
5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month,
to keep it in good working order.
It is normal that the condensation
created by the air conditioning system
results in a fl ow of water which may
form a puddle under the vehicle when
parked.
If the system does not produce cold air,
do not use it and contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
Automatic mode: visibility
programme
The comfort programme (AUTO) may
not be suffi cient to quickly demist or
defrost the windows (humidity, several
passengers, ice).
In this case, select the visibility
programme. The visibility programme
indicator comes on.
It activates the air conditioning, the air
fl ow and provides optimum distribution
of the ventilation to the windscreen and
side windows.
It deactivates the air recirculation.
