Air conditioning
We recommend use of the automatic
regulation of the air conditioning.
It permits automatic and optimised
control of all of the following func-
t i o n s : a i r fl o w , t e m p e r a t u r e i n t h e
passenger compartment and air
distribution, by means of various
sensors (exterior temperature, sun-
shine). This eliminates any need for
you to change your settings other
than the value displayed.
Please do not block the sunshine
sensor A .
If you select the automatic mode
(by pressing the "AUTO" control)
and leave all of the vents open, opti-
mum comfort will be maintained and
humidity and condensation will be
removed regardless of the exterior
climatic conditions.
The temperature in the passenger
compartment cannot be lower than
the exterior temperature if the air
conditioning is not on.
VENTILATION, HEATING AND AIR CONDITIONING RECOMMENDATIONS
In order to be effective, the air con-
ditioning must be used with the win-
dows closed. If the vehicle has been
parked in the sun for a long period
and the interior temperature is very
high, ventilate the passenger com-
partment with the windows open for
a few minutes, then close the win-
dows.
To keep the air conditioning system
in good working order it is essential
that it is operated at least once a
month.
The air conditioning uses the en-
gine power during its operation. As a
result, the fuel consumption of the
vehicle increases.
In certain cases of particularly ardu-
ous use (e.g. towing the maximum
load on a steep gradient in high tem-
peratures), switching off the air condi-
tioning permits the recovery of engine
power and therefore increases the
towing capacity.
Air inlet
Check that the exterior grille for the air
inlet, at the bottom of the windscreen,
is clean and free of dead leaves,
snow, etc.
When washing the vehicle using a high
pressure nozzle, avoid spraying at the
air inlet. Air circulation
Maximum comfort is obtained by
means of a good distribution of air in
the passenger compartment, both in
the front and in the rear.
To obtain a uniform distribution of
air, take care not to block the ex-
terior air intake grille located at the
base of the windscreen, the vents,
the air outlets under the front seats
and the air extractor located behind
t h e fl a p s i n t h e b o o t .
T h e f r o n t a n d r e a r v e n t s a r e fi t t e d
with thumbwheels to adjust the air
fl o w a n d d i r e c t i o n . W e r e c o m m e n d
that you leave all of the vents open.

PROGRAMMABLE HEATING *
With the engine off, programmable
heating preheats the coolant circuit
in order to optimise the engine op-
erating temperature prior to starting.
The programmable heating sys-
tem can be started immediately or
delayed thanks to its programming
function. With the engine idle or the vehicle
stationary, it is normal to hear a
high-pitched whistling noise and
to notice some smoke/emissions. Digital programmer
The heating system’s programmer is
located on the left-hand side of the
dashboard.
1. Time or remaining functioning
time.
2. Increase (time).
3. Select programme.
4. Programme number selected.
5. Immediate start-up of heating.
6. Time adjustment and reading
warning lamp.
7. Reduce (time).
8. Heating mode warning lamp.
9. Programmable heating system
warning lamp.

Precautions in use:
The alarm volumetric movement
sensor may be disturbed by the air-
fl o w f r o m t h e p r o g r a m m a b l e h e a t i n g
while in operation.
To avoid a false alarm while using the
programmable heating, it is recom-
mended to deactivate the volumetric
protection. Always switch off the program-
mable heating while refuelling in
o r d e r t o a v o i d t h e r i s k o f fi r e o r
explosion.
To avoid any risk of intoxication or
asphyxiation, the additional heat-
ing must not be used, even for
short periods, in an enclosed area
such as a garage or workshop not
equipped with a system for the
extraction of exhaust gases.
Do not park the vehicle over in-
fl a m m a b l e m a t e r i a l s ( e . g . d r y
grass, dead leaves or paper) as
t h i s c o u l d p r e s e n t a fi r e r i s k .
The programmable heating sys-
tem is supplied by the vehicle’s
fuel tank. Before use, ensure that
t h e r e m a i n i n g f u e l l e v e l i s s u f fi -
cient. If you are using the reserve
fuel tank, we strongly advise you
not to use the programmable
heating system.
