Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning
In order for these systems to be fully 
effective, follow the operation and 
maintenance guidelines below:
F 
T
 o ensure that the air is distributed 
evenly, keep the external air intake 
grilles at the base of the windscreen, 
the nozzles, the vents, the air outlets 
and the air extractor in the boot free 
from obstructions.
F
 
D
 o not cover the sunshine sensor, 
located on the dashboard; this is used 
for regulation of the automatic 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 
o r d e r.
F
 
E
 nsure that the passenger 
compartment filter is in good condition 
and replace the filter elements 
periodically. We recommend the use of 
a combined passenger compartment 
filter. Thanks to its special active 
additive, it helps both to purify the air 
breathed by the occupants and to keep 
the passenger compartment clean 
(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 the dealer network 
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.
To avoid the windows misting up and 
deterioration in the quality of the air:
do not drive for too long with the ventilation 
switched off.
Do not keep air recirculation set for an 
extended period. If after an extended stop in sunshine, the 
interior temperature is very high, first air 
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.
The condensation created by the air 
conditioning results in a discharge of 
water under the vehicle which is per fectly 
normal.
Stop & Star t
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.

Sidelamps.
Dipped or main beam headlamps.
Headlamp dipping
Pull the stalk towards you to switch between 
dipped and main beam headlamps or to 
activate automatic headlamp dipping.
In the lighting off and sidelamps modes, the 
driver can switch on the main beam headlamps 
temporarily ("headlamp flash"), for as long as 
the stalk is kept pulled.
Displays
Illumination of the corresponding indicator 
lamp in the instrument panel confirms that the 
lighting selected is on.
Foglamps
Front and rear foglampsTurn the ring:
F
 
o
 nce for wards to switch on the front 
foglamps,
F  
f
 or wards a second time to switch on the rear 
foglamps,
F  
o
 nce backwards to switch off the rear 
foglamps,
F  
b
 ackwards a second time to switch off the 
front foglamps.

(version with AUTO lighting) or the dipped 
beams are switched off manually, the foglamps 
and sidelamps remain on.
F  
T
 urn the ring backwards to switch off the 
foglamps; the sidelamps will then switch off.
In good or rainy weather, by both day 
and night, the front foglamps and the 
rear foglamps are prohibited. In these 
situations, the power of their beams may 
dazzle other drivers. They should only be 
used in fog or falling snow.
In these weather conditions, it is your 
responsibility to switch on the foglamps 
and dipped headlamps manually as the 
sunshine sensor may detect sufficient 
light.
Switch off the front and rear foglamps 
when they are no longer necessary. Switching off of the lighting when the 
ignition is switched off 
On switching off the ignition, all of the 
lamps turn off immediately, except for 
dipped beam if automatic guide-me-home 
lighting is activated.
Switching on the lighting after the 
ignition is switched off
To reactivate the lighting control, rotate 
ring A to the 0 position – lamps off, then to 
the desired position.
On opening the driver's door a temporary 
audible signal warns the driver that the 
lighting is on.
It will go off automatically after a period of 
time that depends on the state of charge 
in battery (entering energy-saving mode).

Automatic illumination of 
headlamps
When a low level of ambient light is detected 
by a sunshine sensor, the number plate 
lamps,
 
sidelamps and dipped beam headlamps 
are switched on automatically, without any 
action on the part of the driver. They can also 
come on if rain is detected, at the same time as 
automatic operation of the windscreen wipers.
As soon as the brightness returns to a 
sufficient level or after the windscreen wipers 
are switched off, the lamps are switched off 
automatically.
Switching on
Switching off
F Turn the ring to another position.  Deactivation of the function is accompanied 
by the display of a message in the screen.
Malfunction

sunshine sensor, the lighting comes 
on, this warning lamp is displayed 
in the instrument panel and/or a 
message appears in the screen, 
accompanied by an audible signal.
Contact the dealer network or a 
qualified workshop.
In fog or snow, the sunshine sensor may 
detect sufficient light. In this case, the 
lighting will not come on automatically.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, coupled 
with the rain sensor and located in the 
centre of the windscreen behind the rear 
view mirror; the associated functions 
would no longer be controlled.
Automatic guide-me-home 
lighting
When the automatic headlamp illumination 
function is activated (lighting control stalk in 
the AUTO position), under low ambient light the 
dipped beam headlamps remain on when the 
ignition is switched off.
Programming
Activation, deactivation and the 
duration of the guide-me-home 
lighting are set in the vehicle 
configuration or parameters menu .
Welcome lighting
The remote switching on of the lighting makes 
your access to the vehicle easier in poor light. 
It is activated depending on the ambient light 
level detected by the sunshine sensor.
F
 
T
urn the ring to the "
AUTO" position. 
Activation of the function is accompanied by 
a message in the screen.
