3The backrests should only be manoeuvred when the vehicle is
stationary.
First steps:
►

Lower the head restraints, or remove them
when carrying heavy loads.
►


Lift up the rear armrest.
►


If necessary
, move the front seats forward.
►

Check
that no person or object might interfere
with the folding of the backrests (e.g.
clothing,
luggage).
►

Check that the outer seat belts are lying flat
on the backrests.
The folding of the backrest is accompanied by a slight lowering of the
corresponding cushion.
To obtain a flat surface, it is necessary to
place the adjustable boot floor in the high
position.
When the backrest is released, the red
indicator in the release grip is visible.

3of 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.
Condensation created by the air
conditioning results in a discharge of
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. Its specific active additive
helps protect against polluting gases and bad
smells.
►

T

o ensure correct operation of the
air conditioning system, have it checked
according to the recommendations in the
Manufacturer’s service schedule.
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
system, refer to the corresponding
section.
Rechargeable hybrid vehicles
Intensive use of the air conditioning
reduces the vehicle range in Electric mode.
Ventilation with the ignition on
When the ignition is switched on, the ventilation
system and the air flow 2 and air distribution
3 settings in the passenger compartment are
activated, for a period which depends on the
battery charge.
This function does not include the air
conditioning system.
Dual-zone automatic air
conditioning
This system automatically controls the activation
of the air conditioning system, regulating the
temperature, air flow and air distribution inside
the passenger compartment. This system works with the engine running, but
access to the ventilation and its controls remains
possible with the ignition on.

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.
