tribution control 1 in an intermediate
position. 2 - Air recirculation
3 - Heater blower control
The air blower operates only when
the engine is running. For optimum
comfort in the passenger compart-
ment, the control should not remain
in position
0 (position 1 minimum ).

The heating/ventilation and manual
air conditioning systems can only
function with the engine running. This position is for exclud-
ing disagreeable odours
or emissions coming from
outside the cabin. With a
press on control 2 , the entry of air
from outside is closed off, the lamp
comes on.

possible to prevent misting and to
allow fresh air into the cabin.
To deactivate air recirculation, press
again on control 2 , the warning lamp
goes out. 5 - Rear screen demisting

It switches off automatically to avoid
excessive power consumption.
One press stops the demisting.
A further press starts it again.
If the engine is stopped before the
end of demisting, the operation will
resume the next time the engine is
started.

AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONING 1 - Automatic operation
This system automatically regulates
temperature, air fl ow and air distribu-
tion in the passenger compartment
according to the temperature select-
ed (for each side, right and left).
It provides an optimum level of
comfort regardless of the climatic
conditions, by permanent use of
the automatic air conditioning mode
(press the AUTO button ) and with

all the vents open.
Having no airfl ow prevents the air
conditioning and the system in gen-
eral from working.

To prevent misting of the interior
of the vehicle in cold and damp
conditions, the use of AUTO
mode is recommended. 2 - Adjustment of
temperature on left
hand side
To set and display the de-
sired temperature, rotate
control 2 or 3 :
The display HI (high) corre-
sponds to a demand for max-
imum heating (above 27).
The display LO (low) cor-
responds to a demand for
maximum air conditioning
(below 15).
3 - Adjustment of
temperature on right
hand side
- To the left to lower the temperature
-
To the right to raise the temperature
The difference between the tem-
peratures on the right and on the left
cannot be greater than 3 degrees.
A setting around 21 will provide a
temperature that is comfortable.
Depending on your requirements,
an adjustment between 18 and 24 is
normal.
A press on this control,
confi rmed by the display of
"A/C"
and "AUTO" , auto-
matically manages all the
5 following functions according to
the temperature chosen:
- Flow of air.
- Cabin temperature.
- Distribution of air.
- Air conditioning.
- Recycling of air.
To enable the system to operate, all
the air vents should be kept open. This is the normal operating
mode.
