Switching air conditioning on
or off
The air conditioning is switched on
(warning light on) or off (warning light
off) using button 2.
The system cannot be switched on if
the control 3 is set to “0”.
The air conditioning system is used
for:
– lowering the temperature inside the
passenger compartment;
– eliminating condensation more quickly.
The controls(depending on vehicle)
1 Distribution of air in the passenger compartment.
2 Air conditioning.
3 Adjusting the ventilation speed.
4 De-icing/demisting of the rear screen and, depending on the vehicle, the
door mirrors.
5 Adjusting the air temperature.

Vehicles fitted with the ECO
mode (switch 7): when activated,
ECO mode can reduce the perform-
ance of the heating and/or air condi-
tioning. Please refer to the informa-
tion on “Driving advice, Eco-driving”
in Section 2.

3.5
Air recirculation is for:
– isolating the vehicle from the exter-
nal atmosphere (driving in polluted
areas, etc.).
– to bring the passenger compartment
to the desired temperature as quickly
as possible.Switching the air
recirculation on
Push the control 6 to the left. In these
conditions, air is taken from the pas-
senger compartment and is recycled,
with no air being taken from outside the
vehicle.
MANUAL AIR CONDITIONING, HEATING SYSTEM (2/3)
Prolonged use of air recirculation can lead to condensation forming on t\
he side
windows and windscreen, and discomfort due to the use of non-renewed air\
in
the passenger 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 the button 6 again.
53124Distribution of air in the
passenger compartment
Turn the control 1 to choose the distri-
bution option.
WThe air flow is directed to the
windscreen and the front side
window demisting vents.
iThe air flow is distributed be-
tween all the air vents, the
front side window demisting vents, the
windscreen demisting vents and the
footwells.
óThe air flow is directed mainly
towards the footwells.
GThe air flow is directed towards
the dashboard air vents and
the front footwells.
JAll the air flow is directed to the
dashboard vents.

Note: the air conditioning is not opera-
tional below 2°C.
If you want to shut off the flow of air, set
the control 3 to “0”. The system is de-
activated: the ventilation speed is zero
(vehicle stationary). You can, however,
still feel a slight flow of air when the ve-
hicle is moving.Adjusting the amount of air
blown into the passenger
compartment
Move control 3. The further the control is positioned to the right, the greater the
amount of air blown into the passenger
compartment.
Demisting
To activate demisting, position con-
trols 1 and 3 to position
W, and
control 6 to position
. If demisting
remains incomplete, press button 2 to
use the air conditioning.

temperature. The further towards the
red the slide is, the higher the tempera-
ture will be.
When the air conditioning system is
used for long periods, it may begin to
feel cold. To increase the temperature,
turn the control 5 to the right.
Rear screen de-icing/
demisting
With the engine running, press
button 5. The integrated indicator light
comes on.
This function permits rapid demisting/
de-icing of the rear screen and de-icing
of the door mirrors (on equipped vehi-
cles).
To exit this function, press button 4
again.
Demisting automatically stops.

Prolonged use of position “0” can
lead to condensation forming on the
side windows and windscreen and
problems due to the use of non-re-
newed air in the passenger com-
partment.

3.7
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 turning control 6 to increase
or reduce the ventilation speed.
Adjusting the air temperature
Turn control 2 to obtain the desired
temperature.
Turning the control to the right in-
creases the temperature.
Special note: the maximum and mini-
mum settings allow the system to pro-
duce a minimum or maximum tempera-
ture (18°C and 26°C).

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), while optimising consumption.
The system controls the ventilation
speed, air distribution, air recirculation,
and starting and stopping the air condi-
tioning and air temperature.
AUTO: allows the selected comfort
level to be best attained, depending on
the exterior conditions. Press button 1.

Air recirculation (isolation of
the passenger compartment)
K
This function is managed automatically
(operation is confirmed by a warning
light on button 7), but you can also acti-
vate it manually.
NB:
– during recirculation, air is taken from the passenger compartment and
is recycled, with no air being taken
from outside the vehicle;
– air recirculation allows the external atmosphere to be cut off (when driv-
ing in polluted areas, etc.);
– the recirculation of air makes it pos- sible to reach the desired passenger
compartment temperature quicker.
1
The demisting/de-icing will still take
priority over the air recirculation.
Manual use
Press button 7 – the integrated indica-
tor light comes on.
Prolonged use of this position may lead
to odours, caused by non-renewal of
air, and the formation of condensation
on the windows.
We therefore advise you to return to au-
tomatic mode as soon as air recircula-
tion is no longer needed, by pressing
button 7.
To exit this function, press button 7
again. Stopping the system
Turn the control 6 to “OFF” to stop the
system. To start it, turn the control
6
again, then adjust the fan speed or
press the button 1.
