The graduation ranges between:
- increasing of the interior ambient air
temperature HI (High) which heats to a
maximum graduation of 32,
- cooling of the interior ambient air temperature LO (Low) which cools to a
graduation of 16. i n c r e a s e ( + ) o r r e d u c e ( - ) t h e f o r c e o f t h e
interior air flow.
Air distribution
Pressing lights the diode on the buttons
which distribute the air flow towards: the windscreen and front side
window vents (demisting/de-icing
of the windows),
the central and side vents (chest
and face),
the vents in the front and rear
areas (feet).
The combination of buttons permits
improvement of air distribution. Air flow
Successive presses of this button Intake of exterior air/
recirculation of interior air
When the diode is lit, the air
recirculates inside the passenger
compartment to prevent the entry of exterior
odours and smoke. This position should be
temporary.
When the ambient air comfort level has been
reached, pressing the button switches the
diode off and reopens the exterior air intake.
Pressing the AUTO button also restores
the intake of exterior air. Returning to this
position permits renewal of the air in the
passenger compartment and demisting.
Pressing the AUTO button again restores
the FULL AUTO function.
Rapid demisting/de-icing
Pressing this control permits
rapid clearing of the windows.
The diode is lit.
The system manages the air conditioning,
the flow and intake of air, the de-icing of
the rear screen and provides optimum
distribution of the air to the windscreen and
front side windows.
If your vehicle is fitted with additional
heating, please switch it off to guarantee
rapid and effective demisting/de-icing.

programmable heating: it gradually brings
the engine up to a good temperature to
facilitate starting. An integrated clock permits programming of
its start time. The passenger compartment
will be heated more quickly. Heating cycle indicator light

Setting the time of the internal clock
Set the clock on the control panel before
programming the deferred switching on of
the heating. Immediate switching on of the
heating
Before switching on the heating, check that:
- the temperature setting control is in the
"Hot air" position (red).
- t h e a i r l o w s e t t i n g c o n t r o l i s i n p o s i t i o n 2 . This symbol or the previous stored time
and the number (e.g. 1) corresponding to
the recalled pre-selection are displayed for
ten seconds.
Note: if you wish to recall the other pre-
selected times, press the SET button several
times before the ten seconds have elapsed.
Press this button.
The display and the associated
indicator light come on.
Within ten seconds, press these two setting
buttons until the correct time is displayed.
Press ">" to increase the hours or
"<" to decrease.
Press and hold the button for
more rapid scrolling of the digits.
Reading the time Press this button.
This indicator light comes
on, the time is displayed for
approximately ten seconds. Press this button.
The display and the heating
cycle indicator light come on
and remain on throughout the
duration of operation.
Switching on the deferred heating
Switching on can be programmed between
one minute and twenty-four hours in
advance.
You can store up to three different start
times, but programme one deferred start
only.
Note: if you wish to start the heating at a
fixed time each day, simply reprogramme
the stored time each day.
Press this button, the display
becomes overbright. Within the ten seconds, press
these two setting buttons to
select the required start time.
Setting of the stored time is
confirmed by clearing of the
start time, displaying of the pre-
selection number (e.g. 1) and
overbrightness of the display
lighting.

Cancelling the programming Press this button briefly to clear
the programmed start time.
The display lighting and the
pre-selection number (e.g. 1) are
switched off. Good practice
To avoid any risk of poisoning or
asphyxiation, the additional heating must
not be used, even for short periods, in
an enclosed space such as a garage or
workshop which is not fitted with an exhaust
gas extraction system.
The additional heating is supplied by the
vehicle's fuel tank. Ensure that the fuel
gauge indicator light is not at reserve.
Always switch off the additional heating
when filling with fuel to avoid any risk of fire
or explosion.
Do not park the vehicle on an inflammable
surface (dry grass, dead leaves, paper…),
there is a risk of fire.
The temperature near the heater must not
exceed 120 °C. A temperature higher than
this (for example in the case of painting in
an oven) could damage the components of
the electronic circuits.
The additional heating system is fitted with
a temperature limiter which cuts off the
combustion in the event of overheating due
to a lack of coolant.
Top up the coolant, then press the
programme selection control before
switching the heating on again. Have the additional heating system
checked at least once a year at the
b e g i n n i n g o f w i n t e r . M a i n t e n a n c e a n d
repairs should only be carried out by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Use recommended replacement parts only.
Recalling one of the pre-selected
start times Press this button as many times
as necessary until the number
corresponding to the required
pre-selected start time (e.g. 2)
appears.
After ten seconds, the time is cleared but
remains stored for as long as the number
(e.g. 2) and the display remain lit.
Switching off the heating
Press this button.
The heating cycle indicator light
and the display are switched off. Two different types of equipment
The additional heating is autonomous and
programmable. Before you enter the vehicle,
it gradually increases the temperature of the
engine to make starting easier. This also
facilitates passenger compartment heating,
de-icing and demisting.
The additional passenger compartment
heating system supplements the
standard equipment. Its operation may be
independent of the engine. Switching on of
the heating may be programmable.

AUDIBLE REAR PARKING ASSISTANCE
If fitted on your vehicle, the system consists
of four proximity sensors, installed in the
rear bumper.
They detect any obstacle: person, vehicle,
tree, fence, behind the vehicle during the
manoeuvre.
However, objects the size or thickness of
which are detected at the beginning of the
manoeuvre will no longer be detected at the
end of the manoeuvre: blind spots between
and below the sensors. Examples: stake,
roadworks cone or pavement post.Engage reverse gear
The proximity information is indicated by an
audible signal which becomes more rapid as
the vehicle approaches the obstacle.
When the distance between the rear of the vehicle
and the obstacle is less than approximately thirty
centimetres, the audible signal becomes continuous.
The system cannot, in any circumstances,
take the place of the vigilance and
responsibility of the driver.
Stop the assistance
Change to neutral.Operating fault
If this warning light comes on on
the instrument panel, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
If your vehicle is fitted
with this display, a
message appears.
Good practice
In bad weather or in winter, ensure that the
sensors are not covered with mud, ice or
snow.

Pneumatic suspension
PNEUMATIC SUSPENSION
If your vehicle is fitted with the pneumatic
suspension, you can adjust the height of
the rear sill to make loading and unloading
easier.
The control pad is located on the fascia.
There is a nominal level as well as 6 sill
adjustment levels, raising (from +1 to +3) or
lowering (from -1 to -3). Each level reached
is indicated on the instrument panel display.Manual adjustment of the loading
sill
Raise: upwards adjustment of the
platform sill
Press the control, release to
stop the movement. Each press
increases by one level: +1 to +3.
Lower: downwards adjustment of
the platform sill Press the control, release to stop
the movement.
Each press decreases by one
level: -1 to -3. Return to the optimum sill height
Press the same number of times in reverse
as the level of the position displayed.
Warning light
Refer to the "Instruments and controls"
section of chapter 2.
Good practice
Driving with the sill too high or too low risks
damaging the components under the body.
You must avoid this control in the following
circumstances:
- when working underneath the vehicle,
- when changing a wheel,
- when the vehicle is being transported by lorry, train, ferry, boat, ...
