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 (ambient temperature, sun-
shine). This eliminates any need for
you to change your settings other
than the temperature value dis-
played.
Take care not to cover the sun-
shine sensor A .
If you select the automatic mode (by
pressing the "AUTO" control) and leave
all of the vents open, optimum comfort
will be maintained and humidity and
condensation will be removed regard-
less of the exterior climatic conditions.
The temperature in the passenger
compartment can only be lower than
the ambient temperature if the air
conditioning is on.
HEATING, VENTILATION 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
h i g h , fi r s t v e n t i l a t e t h e p a s s e n g e r
compartment with the windows
open for a few minutes, then close
the windows.
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 engine 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
temperatures), switching off the air
conditioning saves engine power
and improves the towing capacity.
Air inlet
Check that the exterior grille for the
air inlet, at the bottom of the wind-
screen, 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.

DIGITAL AIR CONDITIONING (MONO-ZONE)
This is the normal sys-
tem operating mode.
In accordance with the
level of comfort cho-
sen, pressing this con-
t r o l , c o n fi r m e d b y t h e
switching on of indicator lamp A , per-
mits automatic and simultaneous con-
trol of all of the following functions:
- A i r fl o w .
- Temperature in the passenger compartment.
- Air distribution.
- Air intake.
- Air conditioning.
1. Automatic operation
It is advisable to leave all of the
vents open.
Simply pressing one of the controls,
with the exception of control
2 , switches
the system to manual mode.
Indicator lamp A switches off. 2. Temperature adjustment
Turn control 2 to
change the tempera-
ture:
- Clockwise to increase the temperature.
- Anticlockwise to reduce the tem- perature.
The setting required is displayed.
The value indicated on the display
corresponds to a level of comfort
and not to a temperature in degrees
Celsius or Fahrenheit, depending on
t h e s c r e e n c o n fi g u r a t i o n .
A setting around the value 21 usu-
ally makes it possible to obtain opti-
mum comfort. However, depending
on your requirements, a setting be-
tween 18 and 24 is usual.
On entering the vehicle, the interior
temperature may be much colder (or
warmer) than is comfortable. There is
no need to change the temperature
displayed in order to obtain rapidly
the level of comfort required.
The automatic regulation of the air
conditioning will use its maximum
performance settings to correct the
temperature difference as quickly as
possible.

lation of the temperature, distribu-

functions, with the exception of the
rear screen demisting.
The temperature-related comfort is
no longer controlled (temperature,
humidity, odour, condensation).
Avoid driving for too long with the air
conditioning off.
In order to be effective, the air condi-
tioning must be used with the windows
closed.
Deactivating the air conditioning may
result in discomfort (temperature,
humidity, odour, condensation).
The indicator lamps corresponding
to the distribution chosen come on:
- Windscreen and front side win- dows.
- Front ventilation (central and side vents and air diffusion grille
if open) and rear ventilation.
- Front and rear footwells.
Simultaneous display of the distribu-
tion of air to the windscreen and side
windows and of front and rear venti-

PROGRAMMABLE HEATING
The programmable heating operates
independently of the engine.
When the engine is off, it pre-heats
t h e c o o l a n t c i r c u i t i n o r d e r t o b e n e fi t
from an optimum engine operating
temperature from the time the en-
gine is switched on.
The programmable heating system
is switched on using the long range
remote control. Activation can be im-
mediate or deferred by means of a
programming function. Programming remote control
The heating system programming
remote control consists of the fol-
lowing buttons and displays:
1. Scrolling functions menu buttons.
2. Function indicator lights: clock,
temperature, operating time, pro-
grammed time, heater operation,
heating management symbols.
3. Digital displays: time, tempera-
ture, duration of operation, pro-
grammed time or level of heating.
4. Off button.
5. On button.
