Change the temperature setting pro-
gressively for greater comfort.
Place the air intake control in the
"Exterior air" position, this facilitates
demisting.
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.
To obtain a perfectly uniform distribu-
tion of air, do not cover the exterior
air intake grille, the vents, the air pas-
sages and the air outlets in the foot-
wells. In certain cases of particularly ardu-
ous use (towing the maximum load
on a steep gradient in a high temper-
ature), cutting off the air conditioning
permits recovery of the engine power
and, therefore improvement of the
towing capacity.

replaced regularly. If you drive in a
dusty environment, change them
twice as often.
The air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and does not present
any danger to the ozone layer.
Operate the air conditioning system
for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a
month to keep it in perfect working
order.
The water formed by the condensa-
tion of the air conditioning system is
discharged via an opening provided
for this purpose. Therefore, a pud-
dle may form underneath the vehicle
when stationary.
If the system does not produce
cold air, do not use it and contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.

DE-ICING AND DEMISTING
De-icing the rear screen and
mirrors
When the engine is running,
pressing this button de-ices
the rear screen and exterior
mirrors.
It switches off automatically, after approximately twelve minutes,
to prevent an excessive consumption
of current. Pressing the button again
restarts operation for twelve minutes.
It is possible to stop the operation of
the de-icing before it is switched off
automatically by pressing the button
again.
Switch off the de-icing as soon as
you consider this necessary as low
current consumption reduces fuel
consumption. Manual demisting

To guarantee correct operation of
your air conditioning system, we also
recommend that you have it checked
regularly.
1. Air conditioning On/Off
The air conditioning is designed to operate effectively in all seasons, with the
windows closed. In summer, it permits lowering of the temperatu re and in winter,
above 0 °C, it increases the effectiveness of the demisting. 2. Temperature adjustment

Used simultaneously with the air con-

air conditioning performance.
Used in a damp climate, air recircula-
tion may result in misting of the win-

AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONING
The air conditioning can only operate when the engine is running.
Automatic operation 2. Control by the AUTO programme
Press the "AUTO" button.
We recommend that you use
this mode: it provides opti-
mised automatic control of
all of the functions, passenger com-
p a r t m e n t t e m p e r a t u r e , a i r l o w , a i r
distribution and air recirculation, in
accordance with the comfort value
that you have chosen. This system is
designed to operate effectively in all
seasons, with the windows closed. Note:
for your comfort, the values
set when the engine is switched off
are retained on re-starting if the tem-
perature in the passenger compart-
m e n t h a s n o t c h a n g e d s i g n i i c a n t l y ;
otherwise, operation resumes in au-
tomatic mode.
When the engine is cold, to prevent
too great a distribution of cold air, the
ventilation will only reach its optimum
level gradually.
On entering the vehicle, if the interior
temperature is much colder or war-
mer than is comfortable, there is no
need to change the value displayed
i n o r d e r t o r e a c h t h e r e q u i r e d l e v e l o f
comfort. The system eliminates the
temperature difference automatically
a n d a s q u i c k l y a s p o s s i b l e .
Manual operation
If you wish, you can make a different
choice from that offered by the sys-
tem by changing a setting. The other
functions will still be controlled auto-
matically.
Pressing the AUTO button returns
the system to completely automatic
operation.
1. Temperature adjustment
The value indicated on the
display corresponds to a
level of comfort and not to a
temperature in degrees Cel-
sius or Fahrenheit.
Press the arrows 1 (up and down) to
change this value. A setting around
21 enables a comfortable tempera-
ture to be obtained.

ADVICE ON CHILD
SEATS
The incorrect installation of a child
seat in a vehicle compromises the
child's protection in the event of an
accident.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or
the child seat harnesses keeping the
slack in relation to the child's body to
a minimum, even for short journeys.
For optimum installation of the "for-
ward facing" child seat, ensure that
the back of the child seat is in contact
with the back of the vehicle's seat
and that the head restraint does not
cause any discomfort.
If the head restraint has to be re-
moved, ensure that it is stored or
attached securely to prevent it from
being thrown around the vehicle in
the event of sharp braking. Children under the age of 10 must not
travel in the "forward facing" position
on the front passenger seat, unless
the rear seats are already occupied
by other children, cannot be used or
are absent.
Disarm the passenger air bag when
a "rear facing" child seat is installed
on the front seat. Otherwise, the child
would risk being seriously injured or
k i l l e d i f t h e a i r b a g w e r e t o i n l a t e .
Installing a booster seat
The chest part of the seat belt must
be positioned on the child's shoulder
without touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat
belt passes correctly over the child's
thighs.
PEUGEOT recommends the use of
a b o o s t e r s e a t w h i c h h a s a b a c k , i t
-
ted with a seat belt guide at shoulder
level. As a safety precaution, do not leave:
- one or more children alone and
unsupervised in a vehicle,
- a child or an animal in a vehicle which is exposed to the sun, with
the windows closed,
- the keys within reach of children inside the vehicle.
To prevent accidental opening of the
doors, use the "Child lock".
Take care not to open the rear win-
dows by more than one third.
To protect young children from the
r a y s o f t h e s u n , i t s i d e b l i n d s o n t h e

R E A R Q U A R T E R L I G H T S
( 3 D O O R )
To partially open the rear windows,
tilt lever then push the window. Always remove the key
from the ignition when
leaving the vehicle, even
for a short time.
If an obstacle is detected when
operating the electric windows,
you must reverse the movement
of the window. To do this, press
the control concerned.
When the driver operates the pas-
senger electric window controls,
he must ensure that no one is pre-
venting correct closing of the win-
dows.
The driver must ensure that pas-
sengers use the electric windows
correctly.
Be aware of children when operat-
ing the windows.
This switch enables the rear windows
to be locked whatever their position.
A 1st press activates the control (the
indicator light on the button comes
on) and a 2nd press deactivates it
(the indicator light on the button goes
out).
