HEATING - VENTILATION(continued)
• Position
For improved efficiency, close the
dashboard air vents.
All the air flow is directed to the
windscreen demisters and the side
window demisters.•Position (Isolation
position)
This position prevents any air from
entering (regardless of the position
of controlC). This allows the
passenger compartment to be
isolated from the external
environment (driving through
polluted areas, etc.).
Prolonged use of the ISOLATION
position may cause the windows to
mist up.
We recommend that another
position is selected as soon as the
polluted area is left behind.
Adjusting the amount of air
supplied to the passenger
compartment
Move controlCfrom0to4.
Passenger compartment ventilation
is by blown air. The blower
determines how much air enters but
car speed has some effect on this.
The further the control is positioned
to the right, the greater the volume
of air blown into the passenger
compartment.

HEATING - VENTILATION AND ISOLATING THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT(continued)
Isolating the passenger
compartment
ButtonC
Normal operation of the system is
obtained using external air.
The air recirculation position allows
the passenger compartment to be
isolated from the external atmosphere
(driving in polluted areas...).
To enter the isolation mode, press
buttonC.This function allows the desired
warmth of the passenger
compartment to be achieved as
quickly as possible.
This button switches the air
recirculation system on or off.
Warning lightDcomes on when the
function is operational. In this
position, air is taken from within the
passenger compartment and is
recycled without outside air entering.Prolonged use of the isolation mode
may cause odours due to the air not
being renewed and may cause the
windows to mist up.
Return to normal operation (external
air) by pressing buttonCas soon as
the polluted area is left behind.

• Position
For improved efficiency, close the
dashboard air vents.
All the air flow is directed to the

window demisters.
In this position, simultaneous
operation of the air conditioning
system could make demisting more
efficient.
