Recommendations for use
If the interior temperature remains very high after a prolonged period parked in the sun, first
ventilate the passenger compartment for a few minutes.
For an even air distribution, make sure that you do not block the outside air inlet grille, the
vents, the air passages and the air outlets to the footwells.
en
sure that the passenger compartment filter, located behind the glove box in the heater
unit, is in good condition. Have the filter elements replaced regularly. If you drive in dusty
conditions, change them twice as often.
Operate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month, to keep it in
perfect working order.
In order to ensure that your air conditioning system continues to operate correctly, you are
advised to have it checked regularly.
If the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a P
e

uge
Ot
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
th

e air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and does not present
any danger to the ozone layer.th e condensation created by the air
conditioning results in a flow of water
under the vehicle when stationary which
is perfectly normal.
