Air conditioning controls
Button E switches the air conditioning
on or off.
The system cannot be switched on if
control C is set to 0.
Using the air conditioning system ena-
bles you to:
– lower the internal passenger com -
partment temperature, especially in
hot weather, when driving in traffic or
when the vehicle has been parked in
the sun;
– reduce the humidity of the air blown
into the passenger compartment (re-
moval of condensation).
Fuel consumption increases when the
air conditioning system is being used
(switch it off when it is not required). Note: The air conditioning may be used
in all conditions but does not operate
when the external temperature is low.
–
Button E not activated (indicator
integrated into the button not illu -
minated).
The air conditioning is not operating.
The heating and ventilation controls
are the same as a vehicle without air
conditioning.
– Button E activated (indicator in -
tegrated into the button illumi -
nated).

hEATINg – AIR CoNDITIoNINg (2/2)
In very hot weather or when 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.
Use the passenger compartment isola -
tion function to lower the temperature
as quickly as possible to the required
comfort level. Switch off the air recircu-
lation function once a comfortable level
has been reached. When the air conditioning system is op-
erating, all windows must be closed for
maximum efficiency.
If there is an operating fault, contact an
approved dealer.
If no cold air is produced
Check that the controls are set correctly
and that the fuses are sound. If they are
not, switch off the heating and air con-
ditioning system (indicator integrated
into button E) and contact an approved
dealer.
Adjusting the air temperature.
Move control
F to obtain the desired
temperature. The further the control is
in the red, the more the temperature will
be increased.
Do not open the refrigerant
fluid circuit. The fluid may
damage eyes or skin.

Air conditioning: information and advice on use
AIR CoNDITIoNINg: information and advice on use
Fuel consumption
It is normal to notice an increase
in fuel consumption (especially in
towns) when the air conditioning is
operating. For vehicles fitted with
manual air conditioning, switch off
the system when it is not required.
In order to minimise consump -
tion and help to protect the en -
vironment, it is recommended to
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.
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.
Do not open the refriger -
ant fluid circuit. The fluid
may damage eyes or skin.

– Lift wiper arm 5;
– pivot the blade until some resistance

– remove the blade by pulling it.
refitting a front or rear wiper
blade
To refit the wiper blade, proceed in re-
verse order to removal.
Make sure that the blade is correctly
locked in position.
– press button 2 and slide the wiper
blade sideways to release hook 4 on
the wiper arm.
Before using the wipers, check that no objects are obstructing the travel
of the blades.
– In frosty weather, make sure that the wiper blades are not stuck by ice
(to avoid the risk of the motor overheating).
– Check the condition of the wiper blades. Replace the wiper blades as soon as
they begin to lose efficiency (approximately once a year).
Whilst changing the blade, take care not to drop the arm onto the window after it
has been removed as this may break the window.

Check the condition of the wiper
blades. You are responsible for their
service life:
– clean the blades, windscreen and
rear screen regularly with soapy
water;

screen or rear screen are dry;
– free them from the windscreen or
rear screen when they have not
been used for a long time.
