VENTILATION
1. Windscreen de-icing or
demisting vents.
2. Front door windows de-icing or
demisting vents.
3. Side vents.
4. Centre vents.
5. Air outlet to front footwells.
6. Air outlet to rear footwells (with
automatic air conditioning only). Advice on operation
and notes
In certain cases of particularly ardu-
ous use (towing the maximum load
on a steep gradient in a high tempera-
ture), cutting off the air conditioning
permits recovery of the engine pow-
er and, therefore improvement of the
towing capacity.
Ensure that the passenger com-

replaced regularly. If you drive in a
dusty environment, change them
twice as often.
The air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and does not present
any danger to the ozone layer.
Operate the air conditioning system
for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a
month to keep it in perfect working
order.
T h e w a t e r f o r m e d b y t h e c o n d e n s a -
tion of the air conditioning system is
discharged via an opening provided
for this purpose. Therefore, a pud-
dle may form underneath the vehicle
when stationary.
If the system does not produce cold air,
do not use it and contact a PEUGEOT
dealer.

Change the temperature setting pro-
gressively for greater comfort.
Place the air intake control in the
"Exterior air" position, this facilitates
demisting.
If the interior temperature remains
very high following a long period
parked in the sun, do not hesitate to
ventilate the passenger compartment
for a few minutes.

HANDBRAKE
Operating abnormality
Any operating abnormality is indi-
cated by an audible signal, accom-
panied by the message 'Automatic
gear fault' on the multi-function dis-
play, by a "-" a n d fl a s h i n g o f t h e
Sport and Snow warning lights on the
instrument panel display.
In this situation the gearbox oper-
ates in downgrade mode (locked in
3rd gear). You may feel a substan-
tial knock when changing from P to
R and from N to R (this will not cause
any damage to the gearbox).
Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h),
respecting local speed limits.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer. Illumination of this warning light
and of the STOP warning light,
accompanied by an audible sig-
nal (while the vehicle is being
driven) and the message "hand-
brake on" on the multifunction display,
indicates that the handbrake is still on or
has not been properly released.
Releasing
Pull on the handle and press the but-
ton to release the handbrake.
I f t h e b a t t e r y i s fl a t a n d t h e

the lever or there is a risk the gear-
box may be damaged. When parking on a slope,
