VENTILATION
1. Windscreen de-icing or
demisting vent.
2. Side window de-icing or
demisting vents.
3. Side vents.
4. Central vents.
5. Air outlets to the front footwells.
6. Air outlets to the rear footwells.
7. Temperature sensor. Recommendations for use
If the interior temperature remains
very high following a long period
parked in the sun, do not hesitate to
ventilate the passenger compartment
for a few minutes.
For an even air distribution, make
sure that you do not block the out-
side air inlet grille, the vents and the
air outlets to the footwells.
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load on a
steep gradient in a high temperature),
cutting off the air conditioning permits
recovery of the engine power and
therefore improvement of the towing
capacity.
Ensure that the passenger compart-
m e n t fi l t e r , l o c a t e d u n d e r n e a t h t h e
windscreen, in the engine compart-
ment, is in good condition. Have the
fi l t e r e l e m e n t s r e p l a c e d r e g u l a r l y ( r e f e r
to the chapter "Checks - § Checks").
If you drive in a dusty environment,
change them twice as often. We recommend the use of a com-
b i n e d p a s s e n g e r c o m p a r t m e n t fi l t e r . B y

breathed by the occupants and to the
cleanness of the passenger compart-
ment (reduction of allergic symptoms,
unpleasant odours and oily deposits).
Operate the air conditioning system
for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a
month, to keep it in perfect working
order.
To guarantee correct operation of
your air conditioning system, we also
recommend that you have it checked
regularly.
The condensation created by the air

which is perfectly normal.
If the system does not produce cold air,
do not use it and contact a PEUGEOT
dealer.
Do not cover the temperature sen-
sor

air conditioning.
The air conditioning system
does not contain chlorine and
does not present any danger
to the ozone layer.
