notches which prevents it from lowering; this is
a safety device in case of impact.
The adjustment is correct when the upper
edge of the head restraint is level with the

Door mirrors
If your vehicle is fitted with heated
mirrors, the demisting-defrosting

In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance
guidelines below:
F t
o o
btain 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.
F

D
o not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for regulation
of the air conditioning system.
F

O
perate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month
to keep it in per fect working order.
F
e
n
sure that the passenger compartment filter is in good condition and have the filter
elements replaced regularly.
W

e recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment filter. t
h
anks to its
special active additive, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by the
occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compartment (reduction of allergic
symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).
F
t
o e
nsure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to have
it checked regularly as recommended in the warranty and maintenance record.
F

I
f the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a P
e
uge
Ot
dealer or
a qualified workshop.
Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning
If after an extended stop in sunshine,
the interior temperature is very high, first
ventilate 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.
Humid air cooled quickly by the
vehicle's air conditioning system may
produce condensation at the vent
outlets.
th

is phenomenon disappears after a
few seconds.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures, switching off the
air conditioning increases the available engine power and so improves the towing ability.
th

e condensation created by the air
conditioning results in a discharge
of water under the vehicle which is
perfectly normal.

Manual heating / air conditioning
the system operates with the engine running.
1. Temperature setting
F turn the temperature control dial to the right to raise the
temperature, and to the left to
lower it.
to avoid misting and deterioration of the air
quality in the passenger compartment, ensure
that an adequate air flow is maintained.
3. Air distribution setting
F Place the dial in the desired position, to direct air towards:
t

he centre and side vents,
th

e air distribution can be modulated by
placing the dial in intermediate positions.
2. Air flow setting
F turn the dial to the right to increase and to the left to
reduce the air flow.

dial 3 in the "AUTO" position. When the engine is cold, to avoid an
excessive distribution of cold air, the
ventilation will reach its optimum level
gradually.
On entering the vehicle, the interior
temperature may be much colder
(or warmer) than the temperature
setting.
t
h
ere is no need to change the
temperature setting in order to reach
the comfort required rapidly.
th

e automatic regulation of the air
conditioning will operate to correct the
temperature difference as quickly as
possible.
In automatic mode:
F

w
hen the temperature is set to maximum
(Rapid heating), the intake of exterior air is
activated and the air conditioning stops.
F
w
hen the temperature is set to minimum
(Rapid cooling), air recirculation is
activated and the air conditioning operates.
th

e system controls the air distribution, the flow,
the temperature and the air intake to ensure
the level of comfort selected and adequate air
circulation in the passenger compartment. No
further action on your part is required.

Driving recommendations
Observe the driving regulations and remain
vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.
Pay close attention to the traffic and keep your
hands on the wheel so that you are ready to
react at any time to any eventuality.
On a long journey, a break every two hours is
strongly recommended.
In difficult weather, drive smoothly, anticipate
the need to brake and increase the distance
from other vehicles.Never drive with the parking brake
applied - Risk of overheating and
damage to the braking system!
Risk of fire!
As the exhaust system of your vehicle
is very hot, even several minutes after
switching off the engine, do not park
or run the engine over areas where
inflammable substances and materials
are present: grass, leaves, etc.
Never leave a vehicle unsupervised
with the engine running. If you have
to leave your vehicle with the engine
running, apply the parking brake
and put the gearbox into neutral or
position


N or P, depending on the type
of gearbox.
Driving on flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving on flooded
roads, as this could cause serious damage
to the engine or gearbox, as well as to the
electrical systems of your vehicle.
Important!If you are obliged to drive through water:
-

c
heck that the depth of water does not
exceed 25 cm, taking account of waves
that might be generated by other users,
-

d
eactivate the Stop & Start system,
-

d
rive as slowly as possible without
stalling. In all cases, do not exceed 6 mph
(10


km/h),
-

d
o not stop and do not switch off the
engine.
On leaving the flooded road, as soon as
circumstances allow, make several light brake
applications to dry the brake discs and pads.
If in doubt on the state of your vehicle, contact
a P
e

uge
Ot
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Never drive in a depth of water which
could cover the axles, the wheel shafts
and which could enter the exhaust.
