AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL: Controls B and C (1/5)
Indicators
The following indicators are displayed
on the screen 3:
1 Active mode, ventilation speed and air distribution in the passenger com-
partment (temporary display after
pressing the associated controls).
2 Outside air temperature.
4 Air temperature, left and right.
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 recirculation,
and starting and stopping the air condi-
tioning and air temperature.
This mode consists of a choice of three
programmes:
AUTO: allows the selected comfort
level to be best attained, depending
on the exterior conditions. Press the
button 15.
SOFT: reaches the desired comfort
level more gently and silently. Press the
button 14.
FAST: increases the flow of air in the
passenger compartment. This mode is
recommended in particular to optimise
comfort in the rear seats. Press the
button 16.

Some buttons have a warning light
indicating their operative state.

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 still adjust the ventilation
speed by pressing buttons 12 or 18 or,
depending on the vehicle, by sliding
your finger in zone 19.
Temperature adjustmentThere are two types of settings:
– uniform passenger compartment
setting;
– DUAL function setting to independ- ently adjust the left and right sides.
Uniform passenger compartment
setting
Use control 11 .
DUAL function setting
Press button 13 to activate. Use con-
trol 11 to adjust the left side and con-
trol 5 for the right side.
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.
Note: The air conditioning configura-
tion depends on the mode selected in
the “Multi-Sense” menu (please refer to
the information on “Multi-Sense” in sec-
tion 3).

AIR CONDITIONING: information and advice on use
Do not add anything to the
vehicle’s ventilation circuit
(for example, to remove
bad odours).
There is a risk of damage or of
fire.
Do not open the refriger-
ant fluid circuit. The fluid
may damage eyes or skin.
Fuel consumption
You will normally notice an increase in
fuel consumption (especially in town)
when the air conditioning is operating.
For vehicles fitted with air conditioning
with no automatic mode, switch off the
system when it is not required.
Advice for reducing consumption
and helping to preserve the environ-
ment
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 fre-
quency.
Operating faults
As a general rule, contact your ap-
proved dealer in the event of an oper-
ating fault.
– Reduction in de-icing, demisting or air conditioning performance.
This may be caused by the passen-
ger compartment filter cartridge be-
coming clogged.
– No cold air is being produced .
Check that the controls are set cor-
rectly and that the fuses are sound.
Otherwise, switch off the system.
Presence of water under the
vehicle
After prolonged use of the air condi-
tioning system, it is normal for water
to be present under the vehicle. This is
caused by condensation.
Advice on use
In some situations, (air conditioning
off, air recirculation activated, ventila-
tion speed at zero or low, etc.) you may
notice that condensation starts to form
on the windows and windscreen.
If there is condensation, use the “Clear
View” function to remove it, then use
the air conditioning in automatic mode
to stop it forming again.
Vehicles equipped with the
ECO mode: once activated, ECO
mode can reduce the perform-
ance of the automatic air condition-
ing. Please refer to the information
on “Driving advice, Eco-driving” in
Section 2.
