In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance
guidelines below:
F
T
o obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake grilles
located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as well
as the air extractor located in the boot.
F
D
o not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for regulation
of the air conditioning system.
F
O
perate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month
to keep it in per fect working order.
F
E
nsure that the passenger compartment filter is in good condition and have the filter
elements replaced regularly.
W
e recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment filter. Thanks to its
special active additive, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by the
occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compartment (reduction of allergic
symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).
F
T
o ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to
have it checked regularly as recommended in the maintenance and warranty guide.
F
I
f the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a CITROËN dealer or
a qualified workshop.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures, switching off the
air conditioning increases the available engine power and so improves the towing ability.
Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning
Stop & Start
The heating and air conditioning
systems only work when the engine is
running.
To maintain a comfortable temperature
in the passenger compartment, you can
temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start
system.
For more information on Stop & Star t ,
refer to the corresponding section. The condensation created by the air
conditioning results in a discharge
of water under the vehicle which is
per fectly normal.
If after an extended stop in sunshine,
the interior temperature is very
high, first ventilate the passenger
compartment for a few moments.
Put the air flow control at a setting high
enough to quickly change the air in the
passenger compartment.
Contains fluorinated greenhouse gas R134A.
From 1st October 2016, depending on version and country of sale, contains fluorinated
greenhouse gas R134A (gas capacity 0.525 kg +/- 0.025 kg, GWP index 1 430, 0.751 t
equivalent CO

contain chlorine and does not present
any danger to the ozone layer.
