Dual-zone digital air conditioningThe air conditioning system operates when the engine is running.
Automatic operation
1. Automatic comfort programme
F Press the "AUTO" button
repeatedly:
-

a f
irst indicator lamp comes
on; the "light" setting mode is
selected,
-

a s
econd indicator lamp
comes on; the "medium"
setting mode is selected,
-

a t
hird indicator lamp comes
on; the "intense" mode
setting is selected. When the engine is cold, the air
flow will reach its optimum level
progressively, taking account of the
weather and the desired comfort level
so as to avoid too great a distribution
of cold air.
On entering the vehicle, if the interior
temperature is much colder or warmer
than the comfort value, there is no
need to change the value displayed in
order to obtain the comfort required.
The system corrects the difference
in temperature automatically and as
quickly as possible.
This system is designed to operate effectively
in all seasons, with the windows closed. We recommend the use of one of the three
AUTO modes available: they provide optimised
regulation of the temperature in the

passenger
compartment according to the comfort value
that you have chosen.
These three modes automatically adjust the
air flow, according to the desired setting, while
also maintaining the desired comfort value.

and distribution settings: these are controlled automatically according to the ambient
temperature.
This function is not available in the STOP mode of Stop & Start. Avoid prolonged operation in interior
air recirculation mode or driving for
long periods with the system off (risk of
misting and deterioration of air quality).
