Turn control C from 0 to 4.
The passenger compartment is ven -
tilated by blown air. The blower deter -
mines how much air enters but vehicle
speed has a slight effect on this.
The further the control is positioned to
the right, the greater the amount of air
blown into the passenger compartment.

MANuAL AIR CONDITIONING (3/3)
Air recirculation operation
(isolation of the passenger
compartment)
(depending on vehicle)
Turn control D towards air recirculation
symbol
â.
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.);
– bringing the passenger compartment
to the desired temperature as quickly
as possible.
Prolonged use of this position (iso -
lation mode) may mist up the win -
dows slightly or cause odours due
to the air not being renewed.
It is therefore advisable to return to
normal operation (external air) by
pressing control D when you have
passed through the polluted area.

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 air condition -
ing with no automatic mode, switch
off the system when it is not re -
quired.
Advice for reducing consumption
and helping to preserve the envi-
ronment
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. 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 pas-
senger compartment filter car -
tridge 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.
Do not open the refriger -
ant fluid circuit. The fluid
may damage eyes or skin.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.Maintenance
Refer to the Maintenance Service
Booklet for your vehicle for the in -
spection frequency.

Towing procedureThe steering wheel must be un -
locked and the ignition key must be
in position M (ignition on) to pro -
vide stop lights and hazard warning
lights on the towed vehicle. Always
switch on the lights when driving at
night. Remove any trailer.
It is also essential to observe the towing
regulations imposed by current legisla -
tion in each country, and not to exceed
the towable weight for your vehicle.
Consult an approved dealer.
Only use:– at the front, towing hitch 1 (from
the luggage compartment) and
towing point 3.
– At the rear, towing point 4.
These towing points may only be used
for pulling the vehicle, never for lifting it
either directly or indirectly.
Do not remove the key from
the ignition when the vehi -
cle is being towed.
– Use a rigid towing bar.
If a rope or cable is used
(where the law allows this),
the vehicle being towed
must be able to brake.
– A vehicle must not be towed if it is
not fit to be driven.
– Avoid accelerating or braking
suddenly when towing, as this
may result in damage being
caused to the vehicle.
– When towing a vehicle, it is ad -
visable not to exceed 15 mph
(25 km/h).
