advice on use
– Electricity is fuel; switch off all the
electrical components which are
not really needed. however (safety
first), keep your lights on when the
visibility is bad (“see and be seen”).
– Use the air vents. Driving with the
windows open at 60 mph (100 km/h)
will increase fuel consumption by
4%.
– Avoid using the car for door-to-door
calls (short journeys with long waits
in between) because the engine
never reaches its normal operating
temperature.
tyres
– An underinflated tyre increases fuel
consumption.
– The use of non-recommended tyres
can increase fuel consumption.
–
In vehicles fitted with air condi -
tioning, it is normal to observe an
increase in fuel consumption (es -
pecially in urban conditions) when
it is used. For vehicles fitted with
manual air conditioning, switch off
the system when it is not required.
advice for reducing consumption
and therefore helping to preserve
the environment:
If the vehicle has been parked in the
sun, open the doors for a few mo -
ments to let the hot air escape before
starting the engine.
– Never fill the fuel tank right to the
brim to avoid overflow.
– Do not leave an empty roof rack
fitted to the vehicle.
– It is better to fit a trailer for bulky ob-
jects.
– When towing a caravan, fit a wind
deflector and adjust it carefully.

Switching air conditioning on
or off
The air conditioning is switched on (in-
dicator light illuminated) or off (indicator
light extinguished) using button 1.
The air conditioning system is used
for:
– lowering the temperature inside the
passenger compartment;
– e l i m i n a t i n g c o n d e n s a t i o n m o r e
quickly.
The air conditioning does not operate
when the exterior temperature is low.
Adjusting the air temperatureUse control 2 to set the required tem -
perature. The more squares lit on the
display, the higher the temperature.
The fewer squares lit on the display, the
lower the temperature.
Distribution of air in the
passenger compartment
There are six air distribution options.
Press button 5 to scroll through them.

Adjusting the ventilation
speed
Normal use
Pressing on the top or bottom of
button 4 increases or decreases the
ventilation speed: the more blades of
the ventilation fan seen in zone b are
lit, the higher the ventilation speed.
Note: to maintain a comfortable level,
we advise you to use a position be -
tween 3 and 5, half-lit. Position 0 (ventilation fan in zone b
empty)
the system is deactivated: the ventila
-
tion speed for the passenger compart-
ment air is zero (vehicle stationary),
you can however still feel a slight flow
of air when the vehicle is moving.
clear View function
Press button 7: the integrated indicator
light comes on.
This function quickly demists and de -
ices the windscreen, the rear screen,
the front side windows, and the door
mirrors (depending on the vehicle). The
air conditioning and rear screen de -ic -
ing functions must be activated.
Press button 6 to stop the heated rear
screen operating, and the integrated in-
dicator goes out.
To change the ventilation speed: press
button 4.
To exit this function , press button 7
again.
Switching the air
recirculation on
Press air recirculation button 8: the in -
dicator light comes on.
In these conditions air is taken from the
passenger compartment and is recircu-
lated, with no air being taken from out-
side the vehicle.
Air recirculation is for:
– isolating the vehicle from the exter -
nal atmosphere (driving in polluted
areas, etc.);
– lowering the passenger compart -
ment temperature as quickly as pos-
sible.
Prolonged use of air recirculation
can lead to condensation form -
ing on the side windows and wind -
screen, and discomfort due to the
use of non-renewed air in the pas -
senger compartment.
We therefore advise you to return
to normal mode (external air) as
soon as the air recirculation function
is no longer required, by pressing
button 8 again.

Automatic mode
The automatic climate control system
guarantees comfort in the passen -
ger compartment and good visibility
(except in the event of extreme condi -
tions), whilst optimising consumption.
The system controls the ventilation
speed, air distribution, air recircula -
tion, and starting and stopping the air
conditioning and air temperature. This
mode consists of a choice of three pro-
grammes:
A uTo : allows the selected comfort
level to be best attained, depending on
the exterior conditions. Press button 3.
SoFT: gently brings the temperature to
the desired comfort level. The comfort
level is then maintained gently and si -
lently. Press button 2.
FAST: emphasises the actions of the
system to reach the desired comfort
level more quickly. Use this programme
when you have passengers in the rear.
Press button 4.

Temperature adjustment
Press either button 1 or 5 to increase
or decrease the temperature. Pressing
button 3 for more than 2 seconds sets
the passenger temperature to the driv-
er’s temperature.
Special note: the highest and lowest
settings allow the system to produce
maximum hot or cold temperature levels
(“LO” and “HI” display on screen 12).
Stopping the system
Press the bottom of button 11 sev -
eral times to stop the system. To start
it, press the top of switch 11 or one of
switches 2, 3 or 4.7

The displayed temperature values
show a comfort level.
When starting the engine, increas -
ing or decreasing the value dis -
played will not allow the com -
fort level to be reached any more
quickly. The system will always op-
timise the temperature increase or
decrease (the ventilation system
does not start instantly at maximum
speed: it gradually increases). This
may take several minutes.
Generally speaking, unless there is
a particular reason not to, the dash-
board air vents should remain open.
Switching air conditioning on
or off
In automatic mode, the system switches
the air conditioning system on or off,
depending on the climate conditions.
Press button 10 to switch off the air
conditioning.
Varying the ventilation speed
In automatic mode, the system uses
the most suitable amount of air to reach
and maintain the desired comfort level.
You can always adjust the ventilation
speed by pressing on the top or bottom
of button 11 to increase or decrease the
ventilation speed.
In this situation, the ventilation speed,
which is no longer automatically con -
trolled, appears on the display.
Where possible, it is recom -
mended that automatic mode is
used by selecting one of the auto-
matic programmes: AuT o, SoFT
or FAST.
In automatic mode (indicator light
for button 3 on), all heating and air
conditioning functions are controlled
by the system.
You can also change the system
selection, in this case, indicator
light for button 3 will go out and
the changed function, which is no
longer controlled by the system, is
shown on display 12.
To return to automatic mode, press
one of programmes: AuTo , S o FT
or FAST.

Air conditioning: information and advice on use
AIR coNDITIoNINg: information and advice on use
Fuel consumption
You will normally notice an increase
in fuel consumption (especially
when driving in town) when the air
conditioning is operating.
For vehicles fitted with manual air
conditioning, switch off the system
when it is not required.
Advice for reducing
consumption and therefore
helping to preserve the
environment:
Drive with the air vents open and
the windows closed.
If the vehicle has been parked in
the sun, open the doors for a few
moments to let the hot air escape
before starting the engine.
Maintenance
Refer to the Maintenance Document
for your vehicle for the inspection
frequency.operating faults
As a general rule, contact your ap-
proved Dealer in the event of an op-
erating fault:
– reduction in de-icing, demist -
ing or air conditioning per -
formance. This may be caused
by the passenger compartment
filter cartridge becoming clogged;
– no cold air is being produced.
Check that the controls are set
correctly and that the fuses are
sound. Otherwise, switch off the
system.
Advice on use
In some situations, (air conditioning
off, air recirculation activated, venti-
lation speed at zero or low, etc.) you
may notice that condensation starts
to form on the windows and wind -
screen.
If there is condensation, use the
“clear View” function to remove it,
then use the air conditioning in auto-
matic mode to stop it forming again.
If the condensation does not clear,
use the FAST programme.
Do not open the refriger -
ant fluid circuit. The fluid
may damage eyes or skin.
Note
Presence of water under the ve -
hicle. After prolonged use of the air
conditioning system, it is normal for
water to be present under the vehi-
cle. This is caused by condensation.
