In order to be effective, the air conditioning
should only be used with the windows
closed. However, if the interior temperature
remains high after a prolonged period
parked in the sun, first ventilate the
passenger compartment for a few minutes. For even air distribution, ensure that the
exterior air intake grille located at the base
of the windscreen, the side and central
vents, the air outlets on the floor and the air
extractor at the rear are not obstructed.
the air conditioning is useful in all seasons


as it eliminates condensation and air
humidity. Operate the air conditioning system for
5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month,
to keep it in good working order.
Have the filter elements (air filter and
passenger compartment filter) replaced
regularly. If you drive in a dusty environment,
have them replaced twice as often.
It is normal that the condensation created by
the air conditioning system results in a flow
of water which may form a puddle under the
vehicle when parked.
If the system does not produce cold air,
do not use it and have it checked by a
P
eugeOt dealer or a qualified workshop.
"Leave them open"
For optimum distribution and diffusion of hot

or cool air in the passenger compartment,
there are: 4 adjustable central vents, of
which 2 can be directed sideways (right
