safely as possible.
When the vehicle is moving, check that
the handbrake is fully released.
Any fault resulting in the displaying
of a warning light must be the sub-

COMFORT
The air conditioning system does
not contain chlorine and does not
present any danger to the ozone
layer. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR VENTILATION AND AIR CONDITIONING
In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and main-
tenance rules below:

 If the interior temperature remains very high after the vehicle has been
parked in the sun for a considerable time, do not hesitate t o ventilate the
passenger compartment for a few minutes.
Place the air fl ow control at a suffi cient level to provide an adequate re-
newal of air in the passenger compartment.

 To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obst ruct the exterior air
intake grilles located at the base of the windscreen, the n ozzles, the vents
and the air outlets, as well as the air extractor located in the boot.

 Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the fascia; th is is used for
regulation of the air conditioning system.

 Operate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, on ce or twice a
month to keep it in perfect working order.

 Ensure that the passenger compartment fi lter is in good condit ion and
have the fi lter elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks" section).

 We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment fi lter .
Thanks to its second special active fi lter, it contributes to t he purifi cation
of the air breathed by the occupants and the cleanness of th e passenger
compartment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy de-
posits).

 To guarantee correct operation of the air conditioning syste m, you are also
advised to have it checked regularly.

 If the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
In the "cabriolet" confi guration, installing the windstop and using the neck
heaters improves comfort.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures,
switching off the air conditioning permits the recovery of engi ne power and
therefore improvement of the towing capacity.
The condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of
water under the vehicle which is perfectly normal.

off the fog lamps, the side lights will
then switch off. In good or rainy weather, both day
and night, the front fog lamps and
the rear fog lamp are prohibited. In
these situations, the power of their
beams may dazzle other drivers.
Do not forget to switch off the front
fog lamps and the rear fog lamp
when they are no longer necessary.
Lights on buzzer
The triggering of an audible signal

the driver that he has forgotten to
switch off his vehicle’s lights, with
the ignition off and in manual lights
mode.
In this case, switching off the lights
stops the audible signal.
