DIGITAL AIR CONDITIONING WITH SEPARATE SETTINGS
Good practice
For maximum cooling or heating of the
passenger compartment, it is possible to exceed
the value 15 by turning until LO is displayed or
the value 27 by turning until HI is displayed.
For optimum comfort, the difference between
the value displayed for the driver and for the
passenger should not be greater than 3.
If your vehicle is fitted with this control
panel, it is located on the centre console.
On entering the vehicle, the inside
temperature may be much colder
(or warmer) than is comfortable. There is no
advantage in changing the value displayed
in order to quickly reach the level of comfort
required. The system will use its maximum
performance to reach the comfort value set.

60
Ventilation Driver or passenger side comfort value
The value indicated on the display
corresponds to a level of comfort and
not a temperature in degrees Celsius or
Fahrenheit.
Automatic operation Do not cover the sunshine sensor,
located on the windscreen behind
the mirror, it is used for regulation of the
air conditioning.
AUTO comfort programme
This is the normal air conditioning system
operating mode.
Press this button, the
AUTO symbol is
displayed.
Depending on the comfort value selected,
the system controls the distribution,
the fl ow and the intake of air to guarantee comfort
and a suffi cient circulation of air in the passenger
compartment. No further action on your part is required.
When the engine is cold, to prevent an
excessive diffusion of cold air, the ventilation
will reach its optimum level gradually.
For your comfort, the settings are stored
when the ignition is switched off and
are reinstated the next time the vehicle
is started, if the temperature in the
passenger compartment has not changed
significantly; otherwise, operation resumes
in automatic mode. Turn this control to the left or to
the right to decrease or increase
the value. A setting around the
value 21 provides optimum
comfort. However, depending on your
requirements, a setting between 18 and 24
is usual.

Air flow
Press the small fan button to
reduce the flow or the large fan
button to increase the flow.
On the display, the blades of the fan darken
when the flow is increased. Manual operation
You can, according to your requirements,
make a different selection from that offered
by the system by changing a setting.
The other functions will still be controlled
automatically. Pressing the AUTO button
restores fully automatic operation. Intake of exterior air /
Recirculation of interior air
Press this button to recirculate
the interior air. The recirculation
symbol is displayed.
Recirculation prevents exterior odours
and smoke from entering the passenger
compartment. Avoid prolonged operation
in interior air recirculation mode (risk of
condensation, odour and humidity).
Pressing this button again activates the
intake of exterior air.
Air distribution
Pressing this button several times
in succession directs the air flow
towards:
- the windscreen,
- the windscreen and footwells,
- the footwells,
- the side vents, central vents and footwells,
- the side vents and central vents. Deactivating the system
Press the air flow
small fan
button until the fan symbol
disappears.
This action deactivates all of the system's
functions, with the exception of the air
recirculation and rear screen demisting
(if fitted on your vehicle). Your comfort
setting is no longer maintained and is
switched off.
For your comfort, do not
deactivate the system for long
periods. Pressing the large
fan button or the AUTO button
reactivates the system with
the values set before it was
deactivated. Switching the air conditioning
On / Off
Press this button, the
A/C
symbol is displayed and the air
conditioning is activated.
Pressing this button again switches off the
air cooling.

CORRECT USE OF THE VENTILATION AND AIR CONDITIONING
Passenger compartment filter,
carbon filter
Ensure that this fi lter is in good condition and
have all of the fi lter elements replaced regularly.
Vents
"Leave them open"
For optimum distribution and diffusion of hot
or cool air in the passenger compartment,
there are adjustable central and side vents
which can be directed sideways (right or
left) towards the top of the body. For your
comfort while driving, do not close them,
direct the flow of air towards the windows
instead.
The air vents directed towards the floor of
the vehicle complete the equipment.
Refer to the "Checks" section of
chapter 6.
Air conditioning
In all seasons, the air conditioning should
only be used with the windows closed.
However, if the interior temperature remains
high after a prolonged period parked
in the sun, first ventilate the passenger
compartment for a few minutes. Use the AUTO mode as much as
possible as it permits optimised control
of all of the functions: air flow, passenger
compartment comfort temperature,
air distribution, air intake mode or air
recirculation in the passenger compartment.
Operate the air conditioning system for 5 to
10 minutes, once or twice a month, to keep
it in perfect working order.
It is normal that the condensation created by
the air conditioning system results in a flow
of water which may form a puddle under the
vehicle when parked.
If the system does not produce cold air, do
not use it and contact a CITROËN dealer or
a qualified workshop.

Demisting the rear screen and/or
mirrors
Pressing this button, with the engine
running, activates the rapid demisting -
defrosting of the rear screen and/or electric
mirrors.
This function switches off:
- when the button is pressed,
- when the engine is switched off,
- automatically to prevent excessive energy consumption. Automatic air conditioning: visibility
programme
The comfort programme (AUTO) may not
be sufficient to quickly demist or defrost the
windows (humidity, several passengers, ice).
In this case, select the visibility programme.
The visibility programme indicator lamp
comes on.
It activates the air conditioning, the air
flow, the defrosting of the rear screen
and provides optimum distribution of
the ventilation to the windscreen and
side windows.
It deactivates the air recirculation.

Good practice
To avoid any risk of poisoning or
asphyxiation, the heater must not be used,
even for short periods, in an enclosed space
such as a garage or workshop which is not
fitted with an exhaust gas extraction system.
Do not park the vehicle on an inflammable
surface (dry grass, dead leaves, paper…),
there is a risk of fire. The temperature near the heater must not
exceed 120 °C. A temperature higher than
this (for example in the case of painting in
an oven) could damage the components of
the electronic circuits.
The heater is supplied by the vehicle's fuel
tank. Ensure that the low fuel warning lamp
is not on.
ADDITIONAL HEATING
Coolant circuit heater
This is an additional and separate system
which heats the Diesel engine cooling
system to make starting easier.
It improves the demisting and defrosting
performance.
Vehicles fitted with an HDi engine may be
fitted with a heater. When the engine is at
idle or the vehicle is stationary, it is normal
to notice a high-pitched whistling noise and
a slight emission of smoke and odour.

66
Ventilation Have the heater checked at least
once a year at the beginning of winter.
Maintenance and repairs should only be
carried out by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop. Use recommended
replacement parts only.
