In cold conditions and when the engine is cold, to limit distribution of cold air in the passenger compartment, the air flow will change gradually until the comfort setting is reached. On entering the vehicle, if the interior
temperature is much colder or warmer than the comfort value setting, there is no need to alter the value displayed in order to reach more quickly the required level of comfort. The system compensates automatically and corrects the temperature difference as quickly as possible.
This setting is associated with AUTO mode only. However, on deactivation of AUTO mode, the indicator for the last setting remains on. Changing the setting does not reactivate AUTO mode if deactivated. When the indicator lamp in the button is on, the air conditioning system operates automatically: the system manages the temperature, air flow and air distribution in the passenger compartment in an optimum way according to the comfort level you have selected.
Press the "AUTO" button to activate or deactivate the automatic mode of the air conditioning system.

Emergency braking
In the event of a failure of the main service brake or in an exceptional situation (e.g. driver taken ill, under instruction, etc) a continuous pull on the control lever will brake the vehicle. Braking takes place while the control lever is being pulled. It is interrupted if the control lever is released. The ABS and DSC systems provide stability of the vehicle during emergency braking. If the emergency braking malfunctions, the message "Parking brake control faulty" will be displayed.
The emergency braking should only be used in an exceptional situation.
Repeat this procedure to reactivate automatic operation. Reactivation of automatic operation is confirmed by the indicator lamp in the instrument panel going off.

In some situations, such as very cold weather or towing (caravan, recovery), it may be necessary to deactivate automatic operation of the system. Start the engine. Apply the parking brake with the control
lever, if it is released. Take your foot off the brake pedal. Push and hold the control lever in the release direction for at least 10 seconds and no more than 15 seconds. Release the control lever. Press and hold the brake pedal. Pull the control lever in the apply direction for 2 seconds.
Deactivation of the automatic functions is confirmed by illumination of this indicator lamp in the instrument panel.
Release the control lever and the brake pedal.
From this point the parking brake can only be applied and released manually using the control lever.
If a failure of the ABS and DSC systems, signalled by the illumination of one or both warning lamps in the instrument panel, then stability of the vehicle is no longer guaranteed. In this event, stability must be assured by the driver by repeating alternate “pull-release” actions on the control lever until the vehicle is
immobilised.
