Heated seats



The function is active only with the engine
running.
►
Press the button corresponding to the seat.
►


Each press changes the heating level; the
corresponding number of indicator lamps come

ignition is switched off.
Do not use the function when the seat
is not occupied.
Reduce the heating intensity as soon as
possible.
When the seat and passenger compartment
have reached a satisfactory temperature,
switch the function off; reducing electrical
consumption in turn decreases energy
consumption.
Prolonged use of heated seats is not
recommended for people with sensitive
skin.
There is a risk of burns for people whose
perception of heat is impaired (illness, taking
medication, etc.).
To keep the heated pad intact and to prevent
a short circuit:
–

Do not place heavy or sharp objects on the
seat.
–


Do not kneel or stand on the seat.
–


Do not spill liquids onto the seat.
–


Never use the heating function if the seat
is damp.

Servicing the ventilation and air
conditioning system
►

Ensure that the passenger compartment
filter is in good condition and have the filter
elements replaced regularly

.
We recommend using a composite passenger
compartment filter. Thanks to its special active
additive, this type of filter helps to purify the
air breathed by the occupants and keep the
passenger compartment clean (by reducing
allergic symptoms, unpleasant odours and
greasy deposits).
►

T

o ensure correct operation of the
air conditioning system, have it checked
according to the recommendations in the
Maintenance and Warranty Guide.
Stop & Start
The heating and air conditioning systems

Automatic comfort programme
► Press button 10 "AUTO" to activate automatic
mode of the air conditioning system.
When the indicator lamp in the button is on, the
air conditioning system operates automatically:
the system manages the temperature, air
flow and air distribution in the passenger
compartment in an optimum way according to
the comfort level you have selected.
It is possible to adjust the intensity of the
automatic comfort programme by choosing one
of the settings offered in the secondary page,
accessible from button 11 "OPTIONS ".
To change the current setting, shown by
illumination of the corresponding indicator lamp,
press button 13 repeatedly until the desired
mode is displayed:
"Soft": provides soft and quiet operation by
limiting air flow.
"Normal": offers the best compromise between
a comfortable temperature and quiet operation
(default setting).
"Fast": provides strong and effective air flow.
Use the "Normal" or "Fast" modes to ensure the
comfort of passengers in the rear seats.
This setting is associated with automatic mode
only. However, on deactivation of AUTO mode,
the indicator lamp for the last setting remains on.
Changing the setting does not reactivate AUTO
mode if this was deactivated.
In cold weather with the engine cold, the
air flow is increased gradually until the
comfort setting has been reached, in order to
limit the delivery of cold air into the passenger
compartment.
On entering the vehicle, if the interior
temperature is much colder or warmer than
the comfort setting requested, there is no
need to alter the value displayed to more
quickly reach the required level of comfort.
The system automatically corrects the
temperature difference as quickly as possible.
Automatic visibility programme

"Air Quality System" (AQS)
function
Using a pollution sensor, this function
automatically activates recirculation of the
interior air once a certain level of polluting
substances in the exterior air is detected.
When the air quality returns to a satisfactory
level, recirculation of interior air is automatically
deactivated.
This function is not designed to detect
unpleasant odours.
Recirculation is automatically activated when the
windscreen wash is used or when reverse gear
is engaged.
The function does not operate if the exterior
temperature is below 5
°C, to avoid the risk of
misting of the windscreen and side windows.

the ventilation system to adjust the air flow 5
and air distribution 7 settings in the passenger
compartment, for a period which depends on the
battery charge.
This function does not allow the operation of the
air conditioning system.
Interior air recirculation

of mist on the windscreen and side windows.
Recirculating the interior air isolates the
passenger compartment from outside odours
and fumes and allows the desired passenger
compartment temperature to be achieved more
rapidly.
► Press this button to activate/deactivate
the function (confirmed by the
illumination/extinction of the indicator lamp).
The function is activated automatically when reverse gear is engaged.
