This function switches off:
- when the button is pressed,
- when the engine is switched off,
- automatically to prevent excessive energy consumption.
De-icing the rear screen and/or mirrors
Automatic air conditioning: visibility
programme
The comfort programme (AUTO) may not
be sufficient to quickly demist or de-ice the
windows (humidity, several passengers, ice).
In this case, select the visibility programme.
The visibility programme indicator light
comes on.
It activates the air conditioning, the air flow,
the de-icing of the rear screen and provides
optimum distribution of the ventilation to the
windscreen and side windows.
It deactivates the air recirculation.

REAR VENTILATION
If your vehicle is fitted with an additional air
conditioning unit, located in the rear of the
vehicle. The distribution rail located in the
roof and the 6 individualised diffusion vents
provide a perfect diffusion of the ambient air
selected.
The warm air diffused at the floor, from the
front air conditioning unit, is distributed at
the feet of the rear passengers of the
2nd row.
A warm air diffusion vent, located on the
specific unit, completes the assembly for the
feet of the rear passengers of the 3rd row.
Temperature adjustment
Control positioned:
- on the blue, triggers cool air,
- on the red, triggers heating of the ambient air.
Activation/Deactivation
Air flow
The force of the blown air, via
the vents, varies from 1 to the
strongest 4.
To obtain a comfortable level of
ambient air, remember to adjust
this control.
To deactivate the blower, place the control in
position 0. This button, located on the
overhead storage unit, enables
you to activate/deactivate the
operation of the rear controls
from the driver ’s seat or the front passenger
seat.
The first press activates (green diode lit).
A second press deactivates (diode off).

ADDITIONAL HEATING
Vehicles fitted with an HDi engine may be
fitted with a heater. When the engine is at
idle or the vehicle is stationary, it is normal
to notice a high-pitched whistling noise and
a slight emission of smoke and odour.
Rear ventilation
Coolant circuit heater
This is an additional and autonomous
system which heats the diesel engine hot
coolant loop to make starting easier.
It improves the de-icing and demisting
performance.

Ventilation
Have the heater checked at least
once a year at the beginning of winter.
Maintenance and repairs should only be
carried out by a CITROËN dealer.
Use recommended replacement parts only. Good practice
To avoid any risk of poisoning or
asphyxiation, the heater must not be used,
even for short periods, in an enclosed space
such as a garage or workshop which is not
fitted with an exhaust gas extraction system.
Do not park the vehicle on an inflammable
surface (dry grass, dead leaves, paper…),
there is a risk of fire.
The temperature near the heater must not
exceed 120 °C. A temperature higher than
this (for example in the case of painting in
an oven) could damage the components of
the electronic circuits.
The heater is supplied by the vehicle’s fuel
tank. Ensure that the fuel gauge indicator
light is not at reserve.
