VENTILATION Air treatment
The incoming air follows various routes
depending on the controls selected by
the driver:
- direct arrival in the passenger com-partment (air intake),
- passage through a heating circuit (heating),
- passage through a cooling circuit (air conditioning).
The temperature control enables you to
obtain the level of comfort required by
mixing the air of the various circuits. The air distribution control enables you
to diffuse the air in the passenger com-
partment combining several air vents.

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 opera-
tion and maintenance below:
To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obst ruct the exterior air
intake grilles located at the base of the windscreen, the n ozzles, 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, on ce or twice a
month to keep it in perfect working order.

When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures,
switching off the air conditioning permits the recovery of engi ne 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
t i m e , fi r s t v e n t i l a t e t h e p a s s e n g e r
