For safety reasons, carry
out any adjustments when
the vehicle is not being
driven.
Nothing should be placed on the
floor (area in front of driver) as such
objects may slide under the pedal
during braking manoeuvres, thus
obstructing its use.
To tilt the seatback
Depending on the vehicle, activate con-
trol 1 or 2 and tilt the seatback to the
desired position.

mation of an axle).
To avoid any risk of accident, have
your vehicle checked by an ap-
proved Dealer.

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.
6 Air recirculation.

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.

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.

– 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.
They should be replaced as soon
as they become less efficient: ap-
proximately once a year.
When changing the blade, when it
has been removed, do not let the
wiper arm fall against the window:
risk of breaking 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;
– do not use them when the wind- screen or rear screen are dry;
– free them from the windscreen or rear screen when they have not
been used for a long time.
