water underneath the vehicle. This is perfectly
normal.
Servicing the ventilation and air
conditioning system
► Ensure that the passenger compartment
filter is in good condition and have the filter
elements replaced regularly.
We recommend using a composite passenger
compartment filter. Thanks to its special active
additive, this type of filter helps to purify the
air breathed by the occupants and keep the
passenger compartment clean (by reducing
allergic symptoms, unpleasant odours and
greasy deposits).
► To ensure correct operation of the
air conditioning system, have it checked
according to the recommendations in the
Maintenance and Warranty Guide.
Stop & Start
The heating and air conditioning systems
only operate when the engine is running.
Temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start
system to maintain a comfortable temperature
in the passenger compartment.
For more information on the Stop & Start,
refer to the corresponding section.
► Put the backrest 2 in the upright position and
push it firmly to latch it home.
►
Check that the red indicator is no longer
visible in the release grip 1
.
►
Ensure that the outer seat belts were not
trapped during the operation.
Please note: an incorrectly latched
backrest compromises the safety of
passengers in the event of sudden braking or
an accident.
The contents of the boot may be thrown
forward - risk of serious injury!
Heating and Ventilation
Air intake
The air circulating in the passenger compartment
is filtered and originates either from the
exterior, via the grille located at the base of the
windscreen, or from the inside in air recirculation
mode.
Controls
Depending on version, the controls are
accessible in the " Air conditioning" touch
screen menu or are grouped together in the
control panel on the centre console.
Air distribution
1. Windscreen demisting/defrosting vents
2. Front side window demisting/defrosting vents
3. Adjustable and closable side air vents
4. Adjustable and closable central air vents
5. Air outlets to the front footwells
6. Air outlets to the rear footwells (depending on
version)
Advice
Using the ventilation and air
conditioning system
►
T
o ensure that 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.
►
Do not cover the sunshine sensor located
on the dashboard; this sensor is used to
regulate the automatic air conditioning
system.
►
Operate the air conditioning system for at
least 5 to 10 minutes once or twice a month to
keep it in perfect working order
.
►
If the system does not produce cold air
,
switch it off and contact a PEUGEOT dealer
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, enhancing the towing capacity.
Avoid driving for too long with the ventilation off or with prolonged operation
of interior air recirculation. Risk of misting and
deterioration of the air quality!
If the interior temperature is very high
after the vehicle has stood for a long
time in the sunshine, 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.

air conditioning system’s automatic mode .
The indicator lamp in the button lights up
when the air conditioning system is operating
automatically.
You can adjust the intensity of the
automatic Comfort programme by using the
"OPTIONS "
button to select a profile:
–
"Soft": provides soft and quiet operation by
limiting air flow.
–
"Normal": offers the best compromise
between a comfortable temperature and quiet
operation (default setting).
–
"Fast": provides strong and effective air flow.
To change the current profile (shown by the
corresponding indicator lamp), press button
8
repeatedly until the desired profile is displayed:
The "Normal" or "Fast" profiles are the most
comfortable for passengers in the rear seats.
This profile setting is associated with automatic
mode only. However, on deactivation of the
AUTO mode, the indicator lamp for the most
recently selected profile remains on.
Changing the profile setting does not reactivate
AUTO mode if it was deactivated.
In cold weather with the engine cold, the
air flow is increased gradually until the
comfort setting has been reached, in order to
limit the delivery of cold air into the passenger
compartment.
On entering the vehicle, if the interior
temperature is much colder or warmer than
the comfort setting requested, there is no
need to alter the value displayed to more
quickly reach the required level of comfort.
The system automatically corrects the
temperature difference as quickly as possible.
Interior air recirculation
The intake of exterior air prevents the formation
of mist on the windscreen and side windows.
Recirculating the interior air isolates the
passenger compartment from outside odours
and fumes and allows the desired passenger
compartment temperature to be achieved more
rapidly.
► Press this button to activate/deactivate
the function (confirmed by the
illumination/extinction of the indicator lamp).
The function is activated automatically when reverse gear is engaged.
Maximum air conditioning
This function automatically adjusts the
temperature setting to the lowest possible, the
air distribution towards the central and side air
vents, the air flow to maximum and, if necessary,
activates interior air recirculation.
► Press this button to activate/deactivate
the function (confirmed by the
illumination/extinction of the indicator lamp).
Once the function is deactivated, the system

Automatic Visibility programme
This mode allows the windscreen and side
windows to be demisted or defrosted as quickly
as possible.
► Press this button to activate/deactivate
the mode (confirmed by the illumination/
extinction of the
indicator lamp).
The programme automatically manages the air
conditioning (depending on version), air flow
and air intake, and provides optimum distribution
towards the windscreen and side windows.
It is possible to manually change the air flow
without deactivating the automatic Visibility
programme.
With Stop & Start, when demisting has
been activated, STOP mode is not
available.
In wintry conditions, remove all snow or
ice on the windscreen near the camera
before moving off.
Otherwise, the operation of the equipment
associated with the camera may be affected.
Heated windscreen
In cold weather, this system heats the bottom of
the windscreen, as well as the area alongside
the left-hand windscreen pillar.
Without changing the settings for the air
conditioning system, it allows faster release
of the windscreen wiper blades when they are
frozen to the windscreen and helps to prevent
the accumulation of snow resulting from the
operation of the windscreen wipers.
