In the event of a problem
When the vehicle is moving, the lighting of the ESP/ASR warning lamp indicates that the system is malfunctioning.
Contact a CITROËN dealer.
Deactivation
Illumination of the ESP/ASR warning lamp and of the ESP control, means that the system is deactivated.
Fuel gauge and low fuel warning
When the tank is full, all the indicator bars are illumi-nated.
When the low fuel level warning comes on, there remain around 7 litres of fuel in the tank and 2 or 3 b a r s o f t h e g a u g e w i l l fl a s h .
If the last bar disappears, there are only around 2 litres of fuel in the tank.

A i r c o n d i t i o n i n g
At any time of year, the air condition-
ing is useful for removing air humid-
ity and misting.
To keep the air conditioning com-
pressor well sealed, it is essential to
operate the air conditioning at least
once in every month.
To be effective, the air conditioning
should only be used with the win-
dows closed.
If you are towing a heavy trailer or if
outside temperatures are very high,
the air conditioning may be tempo-
rarily interrupted in favour of engine
cooling.
Sensor
The automatic air conditioning inside the passenger compartment makes use of the sunlight sensor, which is located on the dashboard behind the instrument panel.
Take care not to obstruct it.
Water arising from condensation
in the air conditioning is allowed to
drain out through an aperture pro-
vided for this purpose; a pool of
water may thus form beneath the
vehicle when stationary.
You are recommended to have the
air conditioning system checked on
a regular basis (see Maintenance
Guide).
The air conditioning uses energy
from the engine to operate. This
results in extra fuel consumption

The air blower operates only when the engine is running. For optimum comfort in the passenger compart-ment, the control should not remain in position 0 (position 1 m i n i m u m).
4 - T e m p e r a t u r e c o n t r o l
This position is for exclud-ing disagreeable odours or emissions coming from outside the cabin. With a press on control 2, the entry of air from outside is closed off, the lamp comes on. This should be cancelled as soon as possible to prevent mist-ing and to allow fresh air into the cabin.
To deactivate air recirculation, press again on control 2, the warning lamp goes out.

One press on control 5 acti-vates the electric demist-ing of the rear screen and, according to version, the exterior rear view mirrors. The warn-ing lamp comes on.
It switches off automatically to avoid excessive consumption of power.
One press stops the demisting.
A further press starts it again.
Note: If the engine is stopped before the end of demisting, the latter will resume the next time the engine is started.
Press on control 6. The warning lamp comes on.
For air conditioning, the air blower control 3 must not be on position "0".
Air conditioning is obtained by mix-ing the warm air with refrigerated air. The control for the blown air temperature 4 adjusts the air con-ditioning provided the control 6 is operational.
- Place the controls for temperature a n d a i r fl o w o n m a x i m u m .
- Close the central air vents.
- Operate the air conditioning by pressing the control 6, the warn-ing lamp comes on.
Note: you should not be in air recir-culation.

To display the desired tem-perature, rotate control 2or 3:
AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONING
The display HI (high) cor-responds to a demand for maximum heating (above 27).
The display LO (low) cor-responds to a demand for maximum air conditioning (below 15).
A press on this control, con- fi r m e d b y t h e d i s p l a y o f " A / C "and "AUTO", automatically manages all the 5 following functions according to the tempera-ture chosen:
- Flow of air.
- Cabin temperature.
- Distribution of air.
- Air conditioning.
- Recycling of air.
To enable the system to operate, all the air vents should be kept open.
3 - A d j u s t m e n t o f t e m p e r a t u r e o n r i g h t h a n d s i d e
- To the left to lower the tempera-ture
- To the right to raise the temperature
The difference between the tem-peratures on the right and on the left cannot be greater than 3.
An adjustment around 21 will provide a temperature that is comfortable. Depending on your requirements, an adjustment between 18 and 24 is normal.
This is the normal operating mode.

Notes:
- When you enter the vehicle, the temperature inside the vehicle may be much colder (or warmer) than a comfortable temperature. It is no use modifying the dis-played temperature to try to attain the desired level of comfort. The system automatically strives to compensate this temperature dis-crepancy as rapidly as possible.
- When starting the engine from cold, in order to avoid distributing too much cold air, the blower will attain its optimum level gradually.
