Digital air conditioning (dual-zone)
The air conditioning system operates with the engine running.
Dual-zone: this is the independent regulation of the temperature and air distribution on the driver's
side and the front passenger's side.
The driver and front passenger can each adjust the temperature and the air distribution to suit their
requirements.
The symbols and messages associated with the digital air conditioning controls appear in the
display screen. This is the normal system
operating mode. In accordance
with the level of comfort chosen,
pressing this control, confirmed
by illumination of indicator
lamp

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 configuration.
A setting around the value 21 usually provides
optimum comfort. However, depending on your
requirements, a setting between 18 and 24 is
normal. F

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 result in
discomfort (temperature, humidity, odour,
condensation) and may not provide optimum
comfort.
To return to "AUTO" mode, press controls 1a
and 1b . The indicator lamps A come on.
On entering the vehicle, the interior
temperature may be much colder
(or

warmer) than is comfortable. There
is no need to change the temperature
displayed in order to quickly obtain the
level of comfort required.
The automatic regulation of the air
conditioning will use its maximum
per formance settings to correct the
temperature difference as quickly as
possible.
Simultaneous display of the
distribution of air to the windscreen
and side windows and of front and rear
ventilation is not possible.

9. Front demisting / defrosting
In certain cases, the "AUTO"
mode may not be sufficient to
demist or defrost the windows
(humidity, several passengers,
i c e).
8. Rear demisting / defrosting
The heated rear screen operates
independently of the air
conditioning system.
F

P

ress control 8 , with the engine running, to
demist the rear screen and the mirrors. The
indicator lamp comes on.
Demisting is switched off automatically 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 resumes if the
engine is switched on again within one minute. F

P
ress control 9 to clear the windows
quickly. The indicator lamp comes on.
This system controls the temperature, air flow
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 passenger compartment and demisting.
Pressing one of the controls 1a or 1b returns
the system to the "AUTO" mode.
With Stop & Start, when demisting has
been activated, the STOP mode is not
available. When starting with the engine cold,
air flow will reach its optimum 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 order to quickly reach the
level of comfort required. The system
automatically uses its maximum
per formance to correct the difference in
temperature as quickly as possible.
The water resulting from the air
conditioning condensation is
discharged via an opening provided
for this purpose; therefore, a puddle of
water may form underneath the vehicle
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.
Switch off the rear screen and
exterior mirrors demisting when you
consider this necessary, as low current
consumption reduces fuel consumption.

Maximum application
If necessary, you can make a maximum
application of the parking brake. It is obtained
by means of a long pull on control lever A,
until you see the message " Max application

on is variable (e.g. on a ferry, in a lorry,
during towing).

To ensure correct operation of the parking
brake and therefore your safety, the number of
successive application / release operations is
limited to eight.
If this number is exceeded, you are warned by
the message " Parking brake faulty " and a
warning lamp flashes. In the event of a battery failure, it will
not be possible to operate the electric
parking brake.
As a safety measure if the parking
brake is not applied, immobilise the
vehicle by engaging a gear or by
placing a chock against one of the
wheels.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.

If a failure of the DSC system is
signalled by the illumination of this
warning lamp, then braking stability is
not guaranteed. In this event, stability
must be assured by the driver by
repeating alternate "pull - release"
actions on control lever A.
The dynamic emergency braking
should only be used in exceptional
circumstances.
If it is not possible to immobilise the
vehicle, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Dynamic emergency
braking
In the event of a failure of the vehicle’s main
braking system or in an exceptional situation
(e.g. driver taken ill, under instruction) pull and
hold control lever A to stop the vehicle.
The dynamic stability control system (DSC)
provides stability during dynamic emergency
braking.
If there is a fault with the dynamic emergency
braking, one of the following messages will be
displayed in the instrument panel screen:
-
"Parking brake faulty ".
-
"Parking brake control faulty ".
