Auxiliary socket230 V / 50 Hz power socket
It permits the connection of a portable device
so that you can listen to your music files via the
vehicle's speakers.
The management of the files is done using your
portable device.
For more information on the use of
this equipment, refer to the Audio and
telematics section. If fitted to your vehicle, a 230 V / 50 Hz socket
(maximum power: 150 W) is located below the
right-hand front seat and so is accessible from
the second row.
This socket works with the engine running, as
well as in STOP mode with Stop & Start.
In the event of a fault with the socket, the green
warning lamp flashes.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop. Connect only one device at a time to
the socket (no extension or multi-way
connector).
Connect only devices with class II
insulation (shown on the device).
Do not use a device with a metal case.
As a safety measure, when electrical
consumption is high and when required
by the vehicle's electrical system
(particular weather conditions, electrical
overload...), the current supply to
the socket will be cut off; the green
indicator lamp goes off.

The air conditioning system only operates with the engine running.
Manual air conditioning
Temperature
F Turn the knob from "LO"
(cold) to " HI" (hot) to
adjust the temperature to
your requirements.
Air flow
F Turn the knob to obtain a comfortable air flow.
If you put the air flow control in the
minimum position
(system off), the
temperature is no longer controlled.
However, a slight flow of air can still be
felt, resulting from the movement of the
vehicle.
Air distribution
Windscreen and side windows.
Footwells. Central and side vents.
The air distribution can be adapted by adding
the corresponding buttons.
Air intake / Air recirculation
The intake of exterior air avoids misting of the
windscreen and side windows.
The recirculation of interior air insulates the
passenger compartment from exterior odours
and fumes.
Return to exterior air intake as soon as
possible to avoid deterioration of the air
quality and the formation of mist. This allows hot or cold air to be
delivered quickly when required.F

setting between 18 and 24 is usual.
In addition, it is recommended that you
avoid a left /right setting difference of
more than 3.
Dual-zone automatic air conditioning
Offers the best compromise between
a comfortable temperature and quiet
operation.
Provides soft and quiet operation by

Automatic comfort mode TemperatureF Push the button down to
reduce the value or up to
increase it.
When the engine is cold, the air flow will
only reach its optimum level gradually
to prevent too great a distribution of
cold air.
In cold weather, it favours the
distribution of warm air to the
windscreen, the side windows and the
footwells only.
The active mode appears in the display screen,
as described below:
If desired, you can choose settings different
to those offered by the system, by adjusting a
setting manually. The other functions are still
managed automatically.
The "AUTO " symbol disappears if you modify

In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance
guidelines below:
F
T
o obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake grilles
located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as well
as the air extractor located at the rear.
F

D
o not cover the sunshine sensor, located at the top of the windscreen; this is used for
regulation of the 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 order.
F

E
nsure that the passenger compartment filter is in good condition and have the filter
elements replaced regularly.
W

e recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment filter. Thanks to its
special active additive, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by the
occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compartment (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 a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Recommendations for heating, ventilation and air conditioning
If after an extended stop in sunshine,
the interior temperature is very high, first
ventilate 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 air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and does not present
any danger to the ozone layer.
The condensation created by the air
conditioning results in a discharge
of water under the vehicle which is
per fectly normal.
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.
Stop & Start
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.
Air vents
To close a vent, move the control
towards the outside of the vehicle. Slight
resistance may be felt.

Always switch off the programmable
heating while refuelling to avoid any risk
of fire or explosion.
To avoid the risk of intoxication and
asphyxiation, the programmable
heating must not be used, even for
short periods, in an enclosed area such
as a garage or workshop not equipped
with exhaust gas extraction.
Do not park the vehicle on an
inflammable sur face (dry grass, dead
leaves, paper…), there is a risk of fire.
Glazed sur faces such as the rear
screen or windscreen can become very
hot in places.
Take care not to place objects in
contact with these sur faces, nor touch
them with your hands or any other part
of your body.
The heating is activated provided that:
-

t

he battery is sufficiently charged,
-

t

he fuel level is adequate,
-

t

he engine has been started since
the previous heating cycle.
The programmable heating system is
supplied by the vehicle's fuel tank.
Before use, ensure that there is enough
fuel in the tank.
If the tank is on reserve, it is
recommended that the system is not
used.
The ventilation is activated provided
that the battery is sufficiently charged.
