2a-2b. Temperature adjustment
Control via the manual controls
)
Press one of the controls, with
the exception of temperature
regulation 2a
and 2b
. The indi-
cator lamps A
in the "AUTO"
controls go off.
It is possible to adjust one or more
functions manually while leaving the
other functions in automatic mode.
Switching to manual mode may re-
sult in discomfort (temperature, hu-
midity, odour, condensation) and
may not provide optimum comfort.
To return to "AUTO"
mode, press
controls 1a
and 1b
. The indicator
lamps A
come on.
3a-3b. Air distribution adjustment
)
Press control 3b
to change the
distribution of the air fl ow on the
passenger's side.
The indicator lamps corresponding
to the distribution chosen come on:
- Windscreen and front side win-
dows.
- Front ventilation (central and
side vents and air diffusion grille
if open) and rear ventilation.
- Front and rear footwells.
Simultaneous display of the distribu-
tion of air to the windscreen and side
windows and of front and rear venti-
lation is not possible.
)
Turn control 2a
to change the
temperature on the driver's side
and control 2b
to change the
temperature on the passenger's
side: to the right to increase the
temperature or to the left to re-
duce it.
The setting required is displayed.
The value indicated on the display
corresponds to a level of comfort
and not to a temperature in degrees
Celsius or Fahrenheit, depending on
the screen confi guration.
A setting around the value 21
usually
provides optimum comfort. However,
depending on your requirements, a
setting between 18 and 24 is normal.
On entering the vehicle, the interior
temperature may be much colder (or
warmer) than is comfortable. There
is no need to change the tempera-
ture displayed in order to quickly ob-
tain the level of comfort required.
The automatic regulation of the air
conditioning will use its maximum
performance settings to correct the
temperature difference as quickly as
possible.

COMFORT
When starting with the engine
cold, air fl ow will reach its opti-
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.
9. Front demisting - defrosting
In certain cases, the
"AUTO"
mode may not
be suffi cient to demist
or defrost the windows
(humidity, several pas-
sengers, ice).
)
Press control 9
to clear the win-
dows quickly. The indicator lamp
comes on.
This system controls the temperature,
air fl ow and intake and distributes the
ventilation to the windscreen and front
side windows.
Resuming manual control exits from
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 consump-
tion 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 automatical-
ly to avoid excessive consumption of
current and depending on the exterior
temperature.
It may be stopped by pressing
control 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.
With Stop & Start, when demisting
has been activated, the STOP mode
is not available.

PROGRAMMABLE HEATING
The programmable heating operates
independently of the engine.
When the engine is off, it pre-heats
the coolant circuit in order to benefi t

temperature from the time the en-
gine is switched on.
The programmable heating system
is switched on using the long range
remote control. Activation can be im-
mediate or deferred by means of a
programming function.

Changing the battery
The remote control is supplied by a
6V-28L battery, which is supplied.
Information on the display indicates
when it is time to replace this battery.
Unclip the casing then replace the
battery.
The remote control must then be re-
initialised, see below.
Always switch off the program-
mable heating while fi lling with
fuel to avoid any risk of fi re or ex-
plosion.
To avoid any risk of poisoning and
asphyxiation, the programmable
heating must not be used, even
for short periods, in an enclosed
space such as a garage or work-
shop which is not equipped with
an exhaust gas extraction system.
Do not park the vehicle on an
infl ammable surface (dry grass,
dead leaves, paper…), there is a
risk of fi re.
The programmable heating sys-
tem is supplied by the vehicle's fuel
tank. Before use, ensure that the
quantity of fuel remaining is suf-
fi cient. If the fuel tank is at the re-
serve, we strongly advise that you
do not programme the heating.
Do not discard the used batter-
ies, take them to an approved
collection point.
Reinitialising the remote control
If the vehicle's battery is disconnect-
ed or the remote control's battery is
replaced, the remote control must
be reinitialised.
After switching on the power, press
button 4
(OFF) for 1 second within
the next 5 seconds. If the operation
has taken place correctly the mes-
sage "OK"
is displayed on the re-
mote control screen.
If a problem occurs, the message
"FAIL"
appears. Repeat the opera-
tion.
An adaptation of your programma-
ble heating allows you to pre-heat
your vehicle's passenger compart-
ment. Contact a CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.
The interior volumetric protection
alarm movement sensor may be
disturbed by the fl ow of air from
the programmable heating when
it is in operation.
To avoid any unexpected trigger-
ing of the alarm during use of the
programmable heating, it is ad-
visable to deactivate the interior
volumetric protection.

clearly when the road is clear.
Additional lighting
Other lamps are fi tted to fulfi l the re-
quirements of particular driving con-
ditions:
- a rear foglamp to be seen from a
distance,
- front foglamps for even better
forward vision,
- directional headlamps for im-
proved visibility when cornering,
- daytime running lamps to be
seen during the day.
