[. . . ] Advice on use: it is recommended that this distribution mode is used when it is very sunny outside or for lowering the temperature in the passenger compartment quickly if the vehicle has been sitting in the sun too long. j l Distribution O Distribution 8 Advice on use: it is recommended that this distribution mode is used when it is cold outside. Distribution The air is distributed between the front and rear air vents and the front and rear passenger footwells. Advice on use: it is recommended that this distribution mode is used when it is hot or sunny outside. Adjusting the distribution of air in the passenger compartment, buttons?1 and?8 The lit operating tell-tale indicates the position selected. function, button?2 is on, the air is automatically directed to the windscreen and side windows: the operating tell-tales for buttons?1 and?8 are off. J Distribution Air exits through the front vents. Advice on use: it is recommended that this distribution mode is used to inhibit the flow of air to the rear air vents. 3. 8 HEATING/AIR CONDITIONING (5/7) 2 Advice on use of this function For your comfort, it is recommended that you have at least a minimum level of ventilation to renew the air in the passenger compartment and to ensure that the air temperature is stable. function, button?2 is on, it is normal that the ventilation speed increases to de-ice and demist the windscreen and side windows more efficiently. 9 Adjusting the ventilation speed To adjust the ventilation speed, move tab?9. If tab?9 is pushed all the way down: ? the ventilation speed is zero; ? the air conditioning switches off automatically. 3. 9 HEATING/AIR CONDITIONING (6/7) Repeatedly pressing button6 enables you to: ? select the ?air conditioning?Note: ? there is no cold air when tab9 is positioned right at the bottom; ? you may adjust the air temperature in the passenger compartment at any point by moving air adjustment tab5; ? the ?Clear View?function automatically activates the air conditioning system: operating tell-taleC comes on. If no cold air is produced Check that the controls are set correctly and that the fuses are sound. Otherwise, switch off the air conditioning (press button 6 so that operating tell-talesE andC go out) and consult an approved dealer. 5 9 E C 6 Operating tell-taleE comes on. This is the most widely-used function: the system determines the level of cooling needed according to the external conditions. Operating tell-talesE andC are off. Air conditioning control Button 6 starts or stops the air conditioning system. The air conditioning system is used for: ? lowering the temperature inside the passenger compartment; ? eliminating condensation more quickly. Do not open the refrigerant fluid circuit. The fluid may damage eyes or skin. 3. 10 HEATING/AIR CONDITIONING (7/7) B 4 Advice on use of the air recirculation Air recirculation is for: ? isolating the vehicle from the external atmosphere (driving in polluted areas, etc. ); ? bringing the passenger compartment to the desired temperature more quickly. Note Air recirculation is automatically switched off when the ?Clear View?is on. Air recirculation (isolation of the passenger compartment) Press button 4: operating tell-tale lightB comes on. Under these conditions, air is taken from the passenger compartment and is recirculated, with no air being taken from outside the vehicle. Prolonged use of air recirculation can lead to condensation forming on the 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 button4 again. Depending on the external conditions, the system limits the air recirculation running time: operating telltaleB goes out. 3. 11 AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL 11 1 2 3 10 9 8 7 6 4 5 5 Button for switching the air conditioning on 6 Button for adjusting the distribution of air in the passenger compartment 7 Driver?s control panel display 8 Button for switching on rear screen de-icing 9 and?10 Ventilation speed adjustment buttons 11 ?Clear View?button to demist and de-ice the windows and windscreen Information and advice on use Refer to the end of the section on ?heating/air conditioning?.

The system controls: ? ventilation speed; ? air distribution; ? air recirculation management; ? air conditioning (on or off); ? the temperature of the blown air to the right and left. Automatic mode is the recommended mode of use The automatic climate control system guarantees comfort in the passenger compartment and good visibility (except in the event of extreme conditions), while optimising consumption.
