Entry of outside air This is the normal operating position. Recirculation of interior air This position prevents the
entry of outside air. Used at the same time as the
air conditioning, this will improve air conditioning performance. Used on its own, it prevents the entry of outside air (dust, unpleasantodours) but there is a risk of misting ofthe windows.
Avoid continuous operation in interior air recirculation mode. Important precautions: Operate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes once or twice amonth to keep it in good working
order. It is advisable to change the air con- ditioning system fluid every two years.
If the system is not producing cold air, stop using it and contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
