•Stale air exits outside through the boot area. For this reason, do
not obstruct air flow from the cabin to the rear part by placing
clothing on the rear shelf.
•The pollen filter cartridges must be regularly replaced as
indicated in the Inspection and Maintenance Plan to avoid a
decrease in heating power.

Air conditioning not only decreases the temperature but also the
humidity of the vehicle’s interior. If the humidity of the outside air
is very high, the vehicle occupants will enjoy increased comfort,
even if the outside temperature is the same as the inside
temperature. The air conditioning system of this model allows you
to select a certain temperature (between 18°C and 26°C) with the
rotary knob
Afor the temperature selection. With the information
received by the different temperature sensors located in strategic
areas of the vehicle, the temperature of your choice is regulated.

•Disconnect air recirculation mode and A AC
C(ButtonsDand E).
•Rotary control
Ccan be set as you wish.K
Using air conditioner economically
In cooling mode the air conditioner compressor places demands
on the engine and therefore influences the fuel consumption. To
keep the period it is switched on as short as possible, the
following points should be noted.
•If the inside temperature is very high after the car has been
parked in the sun, it is recommended that doors and windows are
opened briefly to enable the hot air to escape.
•The hot air conditioner should not be switched on during a
journey if the windows or sliding/tilting roof* are open.
•The fresh air option should be selected if the desired inside
temperature can be achieved without having to turn on the cooling
system.
K
General notes
•High humidity and outside temperatures may cause
condensation and the evaporator to drip. This water is channeled
outside which can lead to the formation of puddles beneath your
vehicle. This is normal and does not indicate any leak.•For the ventilation to function correctly ice, snow or leaves in
front of the air inlets, on the grid below the windshields (passenger
side, outside) must be removed.
•Only switches
Aand Ccan by adjusted to any intermediate
position.
•When driving at low speed it is advisable to set a low fan speed
and to set switch
Cto position to avoid fogging of the
windshields.
•Since the efficiency of the heating system depends on the
temperature of the coolant, maximum efficiency is achieved when
the temperature reaches service temperature.
•Stale air is channeled outside through the boot area. For this
reason, do not obstruct the air passage from the passenger cabin
to the rear part by placing clothing on the rear shelf.

General information
• High humidity and outside temperatures may cause
condensation and the evaporator to drip. This water is channeled
outside which can lead to the formation of puddles beneath your
vehicle. This is normal and does not indicate any leak.
• If you want the ventilation to work correctly, you should remove
the ice, the snow or the leaves which block the air inlet to thepassenger compartment situated in the vent below the windscreen
(on the passenger’s side, at the exterior).
• If the outside temperature is low, the compressor will be
automatically disconnected. With the AUTO key it will also not be
able to be connected.
• Stale air is channeled outside through the boot area. For this
reason, do not obstruct the air passage from the passenger cabin
to the rear part by placing clothing on the rear shelf.

• When the engine needs an extreme effort, the compressor will be
disconnected temporarily.
• The filter cartridge of pollen*/smells will have to be removed
regularly as established in the Inspection and Maintenance Plan.
Thus you will avoid a decrease in the system’s performance.
