Ease of use and comfort
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.
The air conditioning system operates with
the engine running, but the ventilation and its
controls can be accessed with the ignition on.
Press the Climate menu button to display
the system controls page.

Air distribution

1.Windscreen demisting/de-icing vents
2. Front side window demisting/de-icing vents
3. Adjustable and closable side air vents
4. Adjustable and closable central air vents
5. Air outlets to the front footwells
6. Air outlets to the rear footwells
7. Adjustable and closable air vents
Advice
Using the ventilation and air
conditioning system
►

T

o ensure that air is distributed evenly,
keep the external air intake grilles at the base
of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents, the
air outlets and the air extractor in the boot
free from obstructions.
► Do not cover the sunshine sensor located
on the dashboard; this sensor is used to
regulate the automatic air conditioning
system.
►

Operate the air conditioning system for at
least 5 to 10 minutes once or twice a month to
keep it in good working order

.
►

If the system does not produce cold air
,
switch it off and contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.
When towing a large load on a steep gradient
in high temperatures, switching off the air
conditioning increases the available engine
power, enhancing the towing capacity.
Avoid driving for too long with the ventilation off or with prolonged operation
of 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.
Eco driving mode
Selection of this mode optimises fuel
consumption, but limits the performance
of the heating and air conditioning, without
however deactivating them.

54
Ease of use and comfort
When the system is activated, the indicator lamp
in the button comes on.
Air conditioning does not operate when the air flow is deactivated.
To obtain cool air more quickly, enable interior
air recirculation for a brief period. Then return
to the intake of exterior air.
Switching off the air conditioning may result in
some discomfort (humidity or misting).
Maximum air conditioning
This function automatically adjusts the
temperature setting to the lowest possible, the
air distribution towards the central and side air
vents, the air flow to maximum and activates
interior air recirculation.
► Press button 6 to activate/deactivate the
function (the indicator lamp will come on/switch
off).
Once the function is deactivated, the system
returns to the previous settings.
Mono-zone/Dual-zone
The passenger temperature setting can be linked
to the driver's setting (mono-zone function).
It is available in the secondary page which can
be accessed via the " OPTIONS" button.
► Press button 8 to activate the "MONO"
function; its status is displayed as " ON".
"OPTIONS" button to select one of the available
settings:
–
"Soft": provides soft and quiet operation by
limiting air flow.
–
"Normal": offers the best compromise
between a comfortable temperature and quiet
operation (default setting).
–
"Fast": provides strong and effective air flow.
To change the current setting (shown by the
corresponding indicator lamp), press button

9

repeatedly until the desired setting is displayed.
To ensure passenger comfort in the rear seats,
favour "Normal" and "Fast" settings.
This setting is associated with automatic mode
only. However, on deactivation of
AUTO mode,
the indicator lamp for the most recently selected
setting remains on.
Changing the setting does not reactivate AUTO
mode if it was deactivated.
In cold weather with the engine cold, the
air flow is increased gradually until the
comfort setting has been reached, in order to
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.
"Air Quality System" (AQS)
function
Using a pollution sensor, this function
automatically activates recirculation of the
interior air once a certain level of polluting
substances in the exterior air is detected.
When the air quality returns to a satisfactory
level, recirculation of interior air is automatically
deactivated.
This function is not designed to detect
unpleasant odours.
Recirculation is automatically activated when the
windscreen wash is used or when reverse gear
is engaged.

Safety
Child seats
The regulations on carrying children are specific to each country. Refer to the
legislation in force in your country.
For maximum safety, please observe the
following recommendations:
– In accordance with European regulations,
all children under the age of 12 or less than
1,5 metres tall must travel in approved child
seats suited to their weight , on seats fitted with
a seat belt or ISOFIX mountings.
– Statistically, the safest seats in your
vehicle for carrying children are the rear
seats.
– Children weighing less than 9 kg must
travel in the "rearward facing" position,
whether in the front or rear of the vehicle.
It is recommended that children travel
on the rear seats of the vehicle:
– ‘rearward facing’ up to the age of 3,
– ‘forward facing’ over the age of 3.
Make sure that the seat belt is correctly
positioned and tightened.
For child seats with a support leg, ensure that
the support leg is in firm and steady contact
with the floor.
Passengers must not place their feet on the
dashboard.
Do not smoke as deployment of the airbags
can cause burns or the risk of injury from a=
cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering wheel or=
hit it violentlyK
Do not fix or attach anything to the steering
wheel or dashboard, as this could cause
injuries when the airbags are deployed.
Lateral airbags
Use only approved seat covers
compatible with the deployment of these
airbags. For information on the range of seat
covers suitable for your vehicle, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Do not fix or attach anything to the seat
backrests (e.g.
clothing) as this could cause
injuries to the chest or arm when the airbag is
deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any
nearer to the door than necessary.
The vehicle's front door panels include side
impact sensors.
A damaged door or any unauthorised or
incorrectly executed work (modification or
repair) on the front doors or their interior trim
could compromise the operation of these
sensors - risk of malfunction of the lateral
airbags!
All work must be carried out only by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop
Curtain airbags
Do not fix or attach anything to the roof,
as this could cause head injuries when the
curtain airbag is deployed.
Do not remove the grab handles installed on
the roof, as these help to secure the curtain
airbags.
Active bonnet

The active bonnet has been designed to
optimise the safety of pedestrians in the event of
collision with the front of the vehicle.
The pyrotechnic system is triggered at the
hinges of the bonnet to lift it, when the sensors
located at the front of the vehicle detect a
collision.
Deployment of the active bonnet is
accompanied by a slight discharge of
harmless smoke and a noise, due to the
activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge
incorporated in the system. The airbag
warning lamp comes on.
After triggering, do not try to open or close
the bonnet. Call a towing company or go to
the nearest PEUGEOT dealer or qualified
workshop, driving at a speed below 19 mph
(30
km/h).
Make sure that you adjust the height of the
driver's seat - risk of hindrance to visibility!
This equipment will only trigger once. If a second impact occurs (during the same
or a subsequent accident), the active bonnet
will not trigger.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been
stolen, have the system checked.
Do not tamper with the pyrotechnic systems
under the bonnet, close to the struts - risk of
explosion!
All work must be carried out only by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, this warning
lamp lights up on the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of a message and
an audible signal. You must contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop to have the
system checked.
The active bonnet may not deploy in the event of
an impact.
