Engine oil level indicator
System which informs the driver wheth-
er the engine oil level is correct or not. This information is indicated for a few
seconds when the ignition is switched

Oil level correct
Oil level low
Oil level indicator fault
Dipstick
This is indicated by the fl ashing of
"OIL"
, linked with the service warning
lamp, accompanied by an audible sig-
nal and a message in the multifunction
screen.
If the low oil level is confi rmed by a
check using the dipstick, the level must
be topped up to prevent damage to the
engine. This is indicated by the fl ashing of
"OIL --"
. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualifi ed workshop.
Refer to the "Checks" section to locate
the dipstick and the oil fi ller cap on your
engine.
There are 2 marks on the
dipstick:
- A
= max; never exceed
this level (risk of
damage to the engine),
- B
= min; top up the
level via the oil fi ller
cap, using the grade
of oil suited to your
engine.

COMFORT
The condensation created by the
air conditioning results in a dis-
charge of water under the vehicle
which is perfectly normal.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR VENTILATION AND AIR
CONDITIONING
In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the guidelines on
operation and maintenance below:
)
To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air
intake grilles located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents
and the air outlets, as well as the air extractor located in the boot.
)
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used
for regulation of the air conditioning system.
)
Operate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a
month to keep it in perfect working order.
)
Ensure that the passenger compartment fi lter is in good condition and
have the fi lter elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks" section).
)
We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment fi lter. Thanks
to its second special active fi lter, it contributes to the purifi cation of the air
breathed by the occupants and the cleanness of the passenger compartment
(reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).
)
To guarantee correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also
advised to have it checked regularly.
)
If the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
In the "cabriolet" confi guration, installing the windstop and using the "AIRWAVE"
systems improves comfort.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures,
switching off the air conditioning permits the recovery of engine power and
therefore improvement of the towing capacity.
If the interior temperature remains
very high after the vehicle has been
parked in the sun for a considerable
time, fi rst ventilate the passenger
compartment for a few minutes.
Place the air fl ow control at a suf-
fi cient level to provide an adequate
renewal of air in the passenger
compartment.
The air conditioning system does
not contain chlorine and does not
present any danger to the ozone
layer.
Stop & Start
The heating and air conditioning systems only work when the engine is running.
To maintain a comfortable temperature in the passenger compartment, you
can temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start system (see "Driving").

Windscreen and side windows.
1. Temperature adjustment The air distribution can be
adapted by placing the dial in
an intermediate position.
The air conditioning can only operate
with the engine running.
4. Air intake/Air recirculation
The intake of exterior air prevents the
formation of condensation on the wind-
screen and side windows.
The recirculation of interior air insulates
the passenger compartment from exte-
rior odours and smoke.
Return to exterior air intake as soon as
possible to prevent deterioration of the air
quality and the formation of condensation.
)
If you place the air fl ow control
in position 0
(deactivation of the
system), the temperature is no
longer maintained at a comfort-
able level. However, a slight
fl ow of air, due to the movement
of the vehicle, can still be felt.
3. Air distribution adjustment
)
Press the button to recir-
culate the interior air. The
indicator lamp comes on to
confi rm this.

ing system control panel.
REAR SCREEN DEMIST/
DEFROST
)
Switch off the demist/defrost of
the rear screen and door mir-
rors as soon as it is no longer
needed as lower current con-
sumption results in reduced
fuel consumption.
If the engine is switched off before the
demist/defrost is switched off auto-
matically, demist/defrost will resume
next time the engine is switched on.
The demist/defrost is deactivated
when the retractable roof is stored in
the boot.
Switching on
The rear screen demist/defrost can only
operate when the engine is running.
Switching off
The demist/defrost switches off automati-
cally to prevent an excessive consumption
of current.
5. Air conditioning On/Off
The air conditioning is de-
signed to operate effectively in
all seasons, with the windows
closed.
It enables you to:
- lower the temperature, in summer,
- increase the effectiveness of the
demisting in winter, above 3 °C.
Switching off
)
Press the "A/C"
button again, the
button's indicator lamp goes off.
Switching off may affect comfort levels
(humidity, condensation).
)

the rear screen and the exterior mir-
rors. The indicator lamp associated
with the button comes on.

It is possible to stop the demist/de-
frost operation before it is switched off
automatically by pressing the button
again. The indicator lamp associated
with the button switches off.

COMFORT
When the engine is cold, to prevent
too great a distribution of cold air,
the air fl ow will reach its optimum
level gradually.
In cold weather, it favours the distri-
bution of warm air to the windscreen,
side windows and footwells only. On entering the vehicle, if the in-
terior temperature is much colder
or warmer than the comfort value,
there is no need to change the value displayed in order to obtain the
comfort required. The system cor-
rects the difference in temperature
automatically and as quickly as
possible.
The air conditioning can only operate
with the engine running. The driver and his front pas-
senger can each adjust the
temperature to their require-
ments.
)
Turn control 2
or 3
to the left or to
the right respectively to decrease or
increase this value.
A setting around the value 21 provides
optimum comfort. However, depending
on your requirements, a setting between
18 and 24 is normal.
You are advised to avoid a left/right set-
ting difference of more than 3.
4. Automatic visibility programme
The automatic comfort pro-
gramme may not be suffi cient
to quickly demist or defrost the
windscreen and side windows
(humidity, several passengers,
ice, etc.).
)
In this case, select the automatic
visibility programme.
The system automatically controls the
air conditioning, the air fl ow and the air
intake and provides optimum distribu-
tion of the ventilation to the windscreen
and side windows.
Automatic operation
)
Press the "AUTO"
button.
The indicator lamp on the
button comes on.
2. Driver's side adjustment
DUAL-ZONE DIGITAL AIR
CONDITIONING
We recommend the use of this mode:
it permits automatic and optimised ad-
justment of all of the functions, passen-
ger compartment temperature, air fl ow,
air distribution and air recirculation, in
accordance with the comfort value that
you have chosen.
This system is designed to operate effec-
tively in all seasons, with automatic adap-
tation in the "cabriolet" confi guration. The value indicated on the display cor-
responds to a level of comfort and not
to a temperature in degrees Celsius or
Fahrenheit.
)
To switch it off, press the "visibility"
button again or press the "AUTO"
button, the indicator lamp in the but-
ton goes off and the indicator lamp
in the "AUTO"
button comes on.

Controlling the "AIRWAVE" system
When the engine is running, the "AIRWAVE"
system, located in the head restraint of each
front seat, can be controlled separately to
produce heated blown air directed towards
the neck of each occupant.
Heated seats control
With the engine running, the front seats
can be heated separately.
)
Use the adjustment dial, placed on
the side of each front seat, to switch
on and select the level of heating
required:
0:
Off.
1:
Low.
2:
Medium.
3:
High.
)
Use the corresponding adjustment
dial, placed on the centre console,
to set the temperature and fl ow of
blown air required:
0:
Off.
1:
Low.
2:
Medium.
3:
High.
)
Use the direction dial, placed on
each vent, to direct the output of the
blown air upwards, to the centre or
downwards.
When the control is activated, the
blown air arrives progressively to
reach a comfortable temperature. Do not use the "AIRWAVE" system
if a child seat is installed on the
front passenger seat.
In STOP mode of Stop & Start, the
"AIRWAVE" system stops working.
