Signalling
Sport mode, more suited for a sporty style of driving
Note: Sport mode is retained when you switch off the engine.
Note: If the speed authorised for a particular position is exceeded, the vehicle reverts automatically to the normal road position.
Note: Automatic variation of ground clearance
If your speed exceeds 1 1 0 k m / h ( a p p r o x . 7 0 m p h ) , on a good road surface, ground clearance is lowered. The vehicle returns to its normal position if the road surface deteriorates or if your s p e e d i s l o w e r t h a n 9 0 k m / h (approx. 55 mph)
At low or medium speed, if the road surface is poor, ground clearance is increased. The vehicle returns to its normal position as soon as conditions allow.

You are advised to use the auto-matic air conditioning regulation. This automatically regulates the following functions for maximum c o m f o r t : a i r fl o w , p a s s e n g e r c o m -partment temperature, and air dis-tribution, using different sensors (external temperature, sunlight). This avoids the need to alter any of the settings, with the exception of the temperature displayed.
Take care not to obstruct the sun-light sensor A.
Provided you retain automatic mode (by pressing button “AUTO”) and all the air vents are open, you will maintain an optimum comfort level, also removing humidity and misting, whatever the ambient cli-matic conditions.
The temperature inside the cabin cannot be lower than the tempera-ture outside if the air conditioning is not operating.
To be effective, the air conditioning should only be used with the win-dows closed. If after a lengthy stop in bright sunlight the interior tem-perature is excessive, air the pas-senger compartment by opening the windows for a few moments, then close them again.
Air circulation
For your comfort we advise you to maintain a proper distribution of air within the cabin, both at the front and at the rear.
To obtain an even distribution of air, ensure that you do not obstruct the external air inlet grille located at the base of the windscreen, the a i r v e n t s , t h e a i r o u t l e t s o n t h e fl o o r underneath the front seats, and the air extractor located behind the fl a p s i n t h e b o o t .
T h e f r o n t a n d r e a r a i r v e n t s a r e fi t -ted with control knobs which allow you to control and direct the air fl o w . I t i s r e c o m m e n d e d t o k e e p a l l the air vents open.
D u s t / p o l l e n fi l t e r
T h e r e i s a fi l t e r f o r e x c l u d i n g p o l l e n and dust.
T h i s fi l t e r h a s t o b e c h a n g e d a c c o r d -ing to the vehicle maintenance sched-ule. See “Maintenance Guide”.
To ensure the correct operation of the air conditioning system, it is essential to operate the air condi-tioning at least once a month.
The air conditioning operates by using power from the engine. This results in a slight increase in fuel consumption.
In certain extreme operating con-ditions (e.g. carrying a full load up a steep gradient in high tempera-tures), the switching off of the air conditioning allows more power to be transferred to the engine, thereby increasing the towing capacity.
Air inlet
Check that the exterior grille for the air inlet, at the bottom of the wind-screen, is clean and free of dead leaves, snow, etc.
If washing the vehicle with a high pressure jet, avoid targeting the air inlet zone.

Operating the air conditioning sys-tem on “AUTO” guarantees good ventilation inside the cabin.Note: The value indicated on the display corresponds to a comfort level and not to a temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit.
Manual mode
One or more functions can be adjusted manually, while still retain-ing the other functions in automatic mode.
Press on any of the buttons, except for temperature 2a and 2b. Lights Aon buttons “AUTO” go out.
Changing to manual mode may result in a decrease in comfort level (temperature, humidity, smell, misting) and is not advised for opti-mum comfort.
To return to “AUTO” mode, press on buttons 1a and 1b. Lights Acome on.

Switching off the entry of air
Press button 6 to switch off the entry of air from outside.
Whilst retaining the other settings, this position allows the driver at any moment to exclude unpleas-ant smells or smoke/emissions coming from outside.
This mode should be cancelled as soon as possible to allow the redistribution of air in the pas-senger compartment.
Entry of air from outside
Press once on button 6 to return to the original status (Entry of air from outside).
7. Rear demisting - deicing
Press button 7, with the engine running, to start a rapid deicing or demisting of the rear screen and rear view mirrors. The warning lamp comes on.
This mode automatically stops depending on the outside tempera-ture. It can be interrupted by a fur-ther press on button 7 or by stop-ping the engine.
In some cases, “AUTO” mode may not be suf- fi c i e n t t o d e m i s t o r defrost the windows (e.g. humidity, several passengers, frost).

You can manually exit “Demisting” mode. This mode should be can-celled as soon as possible to allow the redistribution of air in the pas-senger compartment.
A press on either of the buttons 1aor 1b allows you to return to “AUTO” mode.
8. Front demisting - deicing
Remarks:
When starting from cold, in order to prevent unwanted cold a i r , t h e a i r fl o w w i l l i n c r e a s e o n l y gradually to its optimum level.
If you enter the vehicle after a fairly prolonged stop and the temperature inside the vehicle is far from comfortable, it serves no purpose to modify the tem-perature that is displayed as an attempt to go immediately to the desired comfort level. The sys-tem automatically uses all of its power to compensate the tem-perature gap as quickly as pos-sible.
Water arising from the conden-sation in the air conditioning drains out through a hole pro-vided for this purpose ; a pool of water may thus form under-neath the vehicle when station-ary.
Whatever the time of year, even in cool weather the air condition-ing is useful in removing humid-ity and misting. Avoid driving for too long with air conditioning deactivated.
