COMFORT











VENTILATION



A.
Sunshine sensor.

B.
Soft air diffusion grille.
The soft air diffusion grille located
in the centre of the dashboard
provides optimum distribution of
the air for the front seats.
This system eliminates unpleas-
ant air currents while maintaining
an optimum temperature in the
passenger compartment.
To open the soft air diffusion
grille, turn the wheel upwards.
To close the soft air diffusion grille,
turn the wheel fully downwards.
In very hot weather, to obtain
more satisfactory central and
side ventilation, it is advisable to
close the diffused air grille.

C.
Cooled glove box.

D.
Rear passenger vents.

COMFORT

Air conditioning

We recommend use of the automatic
regulation of the air conditioning.
It permits automatic and optimised
control of all of the following functions:
air fl ow, temperature in the passenger
compartment and air distribution, by
means of various sensors (ambient
temperature, sunshine). This elimi-
nates any need for you to change
your settings other than the tempera-
ture value displayed.


)
Take care not to cover the sun-
shine sensor A
.
If you select the automatic mode
(by pressing the "AUTO" control)
and leave all of the vents open, opti-
mum comfort will be maintained and
humidity and condensation will be
removed regardless of the exterior
climatic conditions.
The temperature in the passenger
compartment can only be lower than
the ambient temperature if the air
conditioning is on.














HEATING, VENTILATION
AND AIR CONDITIONING
RECOMMENDATIONS In order to be effective, the air
conditioning must be used with the
windows closed. If the vehicle has
been parked in the sun for a long
period and the interior tempera-
ture is very high, fi rst ventilate the
passenger compartment with the
windows open for a few minutes,
then close the windows.
To keep the air conditioning system
in good working order it is essential
that it is operated at least once a
month.
The air conditioning uses engine
power during its operation. As a
result, the fuel consumption of the
vehicle increases.
In certain cases of particularly ardu-
ous use (e.g. towing the maximum
load on a steep gradient in high
temperatures), switching off the air
conditioning saves engine power
and improves the towing capacity.


Air inlet

Check that the exterior grille for the
air inlet, at the bottom of the wind-
screen, is clean and free of dead
leaves, snow, etc.
When washing the vehicle using a
high pressure nozzle, avoid spraying
at the air inlet.


Air circulation

Maximum comfort is obtained by
means of a good distribution of air in
the passenger compartment, both in
the front and in the rear.
To obtain a uniform distribution of
air, take care not to block the ex-
terior air intake grille located at the
base of the windscreen, the vents,
the air outlets under the front seats
and the air extractor located behind
the fl aps in the boot.
The front and rear vents are fi tted
with thumbwheels to adjust the air
fl ow and direction. We recommend
that you leave all of the vents open.


Dust filter/Odour filter
(active carbon)
There is a fi lter for excluding odours
and dust.
This fi lter must be changed in line
with the vehicle’s servicing schedule
(see the vehicle’s servicing booklet).

COMFORT
As a safety precaution, these op-
erations must only be carried out
while the vehicle is stationary.









STEERING WHEEL ADJUSTMENT

The steering wheel can be adjusted
for height and reach to adapt the
driving position to the size of the
driver.

Adjustment



)
First, adjust the driver's seat to
the most suitable position.

)
When stationary
, pull the lever A

to unlock the steering wheel ad-
justment.

)
Adjust for height and reach.

)
Push the lever to lock the steering
wheel adjustment.
After locking, if you press fi rmly on
the steering wheel, a slight click may
be heard.






Automatic day/night model

In order to guarantee optimum visi-
bility during your manoeuvres, the
mirror lightens automatically when
reverse gear is engaged. By means of a sensor, which mea-
sures the light from the rear of the
vehicle, this system automatically
and progressively changes between
the day and night uses.
It has an anti-dazzle system which
darkens the mirror glass: this reduces
any driver discomfort caused by the
light beam of following vehicles, the
sun... In vehicles fi tted with electrochro-
matic door mirrors, the system has
an on/off button and an associated
warning lamp.

On


)
With the ignition on, press on
button 1
.
The warning lamp 2
comes on and the
mirror glass is in automatic mode.

Off


)
Press on button 1
.
The warning lamp 2
goes off and the
mirror glass remains in its lightest
defi nition.

ACCESS
STOPPING

Do not fl ick the accelerator at
the moment of switching off the
ignition. This could cause serious
damage to the turbocharger(s).















IGNITION SWITCH


1. "S": Steering lock

To unlock the steering, gently move
the steering wheel while turning the
key, without forcing it.


2. "M": Drive position

Depending on the version of your
vehicle, the orange and red warn-
ing lamps should also come on for
a short time.


3. "D": Starter

Release the key as soon the engine
has started.
If the fi rst attempt fails, switch off the
ignition. Wait ten seconds then ope-
rate the starter again.


Steering lock


1. "

S":
After removing the key, turn
the steering wheel to lock the stee-
ring. The key can only be removed
in position S
.

2. "M":
Ignition switched on, the
steering is unlocked (by turning the
key to position M
, move the steering
wheel gently if necessary).

3. "D":
Starter position.
Never turn the key to this position
when the engine is running.

Do not run the engine in an en-
closed space or where there is in-
suffi cient ventilation.
It is essential always to drive with
the engine running in order to retain
braking and steering assistance.
Never remove the ignition key
before the vehicle has come to a
complete stop.
Avoid attaching a heavy object to
the key which would weigh down
on its shaft in the switch and could
cause a malfunction.

Vehicles equipped with
a turbocharger
Never stop the engine without hav-
ing allowed it to run for a few sec-
onds at idle, this being the time
required for the turbocharger to re-
turn to a normal speed.
