Press control 7 , with
the engine running,
to demist the rear
screen and the door
mirrors. The indica-
tor lamp comes on.
Demisting is switched off automati-
cally to prevent an excessive con-
sumption of current and in relation
to the ambient temperature.
It may be stopped by pressing con-
trol 7 again or when the engine is
switched off.
7. Rear demisting - defrosting
The heated rear screen operates in-
dependently of the air conditioning
system.

vent an excessive distribution
of cold air.
- When entering the vehicle af- ter it has been parked for a
fairly long period, if the inte-
rior temperature is very differ-
ent from your comfort setting
there is no need to change
the temperature displayed
in order to quickly reach the
level of comfort required. The
system automatically uses its
maximum performance to cor-
rect the difference in tempera-
ture as quickly as possible.
- The water resulting from the air conditioning condensation
is discharged via an open-
ing provided for this purpose;
therefore, a puddle of water
may form underneath the ve-
hicle when stationary.
- In all seasons, if the weather is cool, the air conditioning
is useful as it removes the
humidity from the air and the
condensation. Avoid driving
for prolonged periods with the
air conditioning switched off.
However, demisting resumes when
the engine is switched on again.
Switch off the rear screen and door
mirrors demisting when you consider
this necessary as low current con-
sumption reduces fuel consumption.
Press control 8 sev-
eral times to set the
air intake mode, the
indicator lamp comes
on.
It must be cancelled as soon as
possible to permit renewal of the
air in the passenger compartment
and demisting.

mum level gradually to prevent an
excessive distribution of cold air.
When entering the vehicle after it
has been parked for a fairly long
period, if the interior temperature
is very different from your comfort
setting there is no need to change
the temperature displayed in or-
der to quickly reach the level of
comfort required. The system
automatically uses its maximum
performance to correct the differ-
ence in temperature as quickly as
possible.
The water resulting from the air
conditioning condensation is dis-
charged via an opening provided
for this purpose; therefore, a pud-
dle of water may form underneath
the vehicle when stationary.
In all seasons, if the weather is
cool, the air conditioning is use-
ful as it removes the humidity
from the air and the condensa-
tion. Avoid driving for prolonged
periods with the air conditioning
switched off.

the "Demisting" mode. It must be
cancelled as soon as possible to
permit renewal of the air in the pas-
senger compartment and demisting.
Pressing one of the controls 1a and
1b returns the system to the "AUTO"
mode.
8. Rear demisting - defrosting
Switch off the rear screen and exterior
mirrors demisting when you consider
this necessary as low current con-
sumption reduces fuel consumption.
The heated rear screen
operates independently
of the air conditioning
system.
Press control 8 , with the en-
gine running, to demist the rear
screen and the mirrors. The indi-
cator lamp comes on.
Demisting is switched off automati-
cally to avoid excessive consump-
tion of current and depending on the
exterior temperature.
It may be stopped by pressing con-
trol 8 again or when the engine is
switched off.
In this latter case, the demisting re-
sumes if the engine is switched on
again within one minute.
