DIGITAL AIR CONDITIONING
The air conditioning system operates
with the engine running.
1. Automatic comfort
regulation
A press on this button,
confi rmed by the display of
the A/C
warning lamp and
of AUTO
on the screen, pro-
vides automatic control, at the tem-
perature selected, of all the following
5 functions:
- air fl ow,
- passenger compartment tem-
perature, left and right,
- air distribution,
- air conditioning,
- automatic air recirculation.
For this facility to operate, it is recom-
mended that all air vents are kept
open.
Using the AUTO
mode will prevent
the formation of mist inside the ve-
hicle in cold or humid weather.
When starting from cold, in order to
avoid a rush of cold air, the air fan
attains its optimum level progres-
sively.
2. Adjustment of temperature
To display the desired temperature,
press button:
- -
to decrease the temperature,
- +
to increase the temperature.
A setting around 21 will provide
an agreeable temperature level.
However, depending on your prefer-
ence, anything between 18 and 24
is quite normal.
For optimum comfort, it is recom-
mended to avoid a difference of set-
tings of more than than 3 between
right and left.
Actual temperatures experienced in
the passenger compartment are de-
pendent on external factors and for
this reason might not be identical to
those displayed.
On entering the vehicle, the inside
temperature may be much colder (or
hotter) than would be comfortable. It
serves no purpose to alter the tem-
perature displayed in an attempt to
attain your preference more rapidly.
The system operates automatically
to correct the difference in tempera-
ture as soon as possible.
Manual resumption of one or
more functions
It is possible to adjust each of the
functions 3, 4
, 6
and 10
manually.
The display of the "AUTO"
function
will then go off.
Resumption by the driver of the
adjustment of passenger compart-
ment temperatures
(for the front and
rear passengers)
A long press on the "AUTO" but-
ton cancels all personal settings,
including the passenger's tem-
perature, and returns the system
to automatic operation

3. Adjustment of air fan
speed/Activation of the
"REST" function
to increase the air fl ow,
to decrease the air fl ow (this
button also has the REST
function).
The level of air fl ow is indicated on
the display by the progressive fi lling
of the fan blades.
If you place the air fan on position 0
,
the system is deactivated. The air
fan display will be empty, with the in-
dication OFF.
To allow a degree of comfort
in the passenger compart-
ment while the engine is off,
you can operate the ven-
tilation for a few minutes using the
"REST" function.
When you leave the vehicle, any
passengers present can still have
the benefi t of air circulation, even
though the engine is not running.
This function is available when
you switch on the ignition as well
as when you stop the engine.
The air conditioning control screens
come on and the symbol represent-
ing the air fan is displayed while the
function is available. This button does not activate the air
conditioning, only the air fans. While
the REST function is active, the air
fl ow and distribution cannot be modi-
fi ed.
On switching on the ignition:
- A press on the REST button ac-
tivates the function for a period
of a few minutes. Two blades of
the fan will fi ll to indicate that the
function is active.
- The function can be deactivated
and reactivated during the timed
period.
- At the end of the timed period,

ventilation, engine off
On switching off the engine:
- The function can be activated
during a period of 30 seconds.

tivates the function for period of
several minutes. The duration
and availability of the function
depends on the state of charge
of the battery. Locking the vehi-
cle has no effect on the function.

By reducing the fl ow to minimum,
you switch off the air conditioning
system (OFF).
You can adjust the temperature and
the air fl ow only if the driver enables
you to (see button 6
of the driver’s
control panel).
This warning lamp signifi es
that the passenger controls
are locked, you can adjust
neither the temperature nor
the air fl ow, which remain aligned on
the preferences of the driver.

SAFETY
TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION
Sensors fi tted in each valve check
the tyre pressure during driving and
trigger a warning in the event of
malfunction (speed above 12 mph
(20 km/h)).
Under-infl ated tyre The tyre under-infl ation detection
system is an aid to driving which
does not replace the vigilance or
responsibility of the driver.
Puncture
The service warning lamp
comes on in the instrument
panel, accompanied by an
audible signal and a mes-
sage on the multifunction screen lo-
cating the wheel concerned.
Check the tyre pressures as soon as
possible. This check must be carried
out when the tyres are cold. The STOP
warning lamp
comes on in the instrument
panel, accompanied by an
audible signal and a mes-
sage on the multifunction screen lo-
cating the wheel concerned.
Stop immediately, avoiding any sud-
den movement of the steering wheel
and the brakes.
Change the damaged wheel (punc-
tured or very defl ated tyre), and
have the tyre pressure checked as
soon as possible.
Sensor(s) not detected or faulty
The service warning lamp
comes on in the instrument
panel, accompanied by an
audible signal and a mes-
sage on the multifunction screen
locating the wheel or wheels which
are not detected or indicating a fault
in the system.
Have the faulty sensor(s) checked
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop. All repairs and changing of tyres
on a wheel fi tted with this system
must be carried out by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
If, when changing a tyre, you in-
stall a wheel which is not detected
by your vehicle (example: fi tting
of snow tyres), you must have the
system reinitialised by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
This system does not avoid the
need to have the tyre pressures
checked regularly (refer to the
"Technical data - Identifi cation
markings" section) to ensure that
the optimum dynamic performance
of the vehicle is maintained and
prevent premature wear of the
tyres, particularly in arduous driv-
ing conditions (heavy load, high
speed).
The tyre pressures must be
checked cold, at least once a
month. Remember to check the
pressure of the spare wheel.
The tyre under-infl ation detection
system may experience temporary
interference due to electro-magnetic
signals on a frequency close to that
used by the system.
This message is also displayed
when one of the wheels is away
from the vehicle (being repaired) or
when one or more wheels without a
sensor are fi tted.
The spare wheel is not fi tted with a
sensor.
