Adjusting automatic mode
The automatic mode is the system’s normal operating mode (AUTO light on) but you may alter the selections made by the system (air distribution, etc.).
These options are explained on the fol- lowing pages.
AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL (3/8)
This is the recommended mode of use: the automatic heating and air conditioning system guarantees comfort (except in the event of ex- treme conditions) in the passenger compartment and good visibility while optimising consumption.
Return to automatic mode as
soon as possible.
Ambient temperature:
automatic mode (continued)
Operation
To reach and keep the chosen comfort level and to maintain good visibility, the system controls:
– ventilation speed;
– air distribution;
– air recirculation management;
– air conditioning start/stop;
– the air temperature.
The displayed temperature values show a comfort level.
When starting the engine, increasing or decreasing the value displayed will not allow the comfort level to be reached any more quickly. The system will always optimise the tem- perature increase or decrease (the ventilation system does not start in- stantly at maximum speed: it gradu- ally increases). This may take several minutes.
Generally speaking, unless there is a particular reason not to, the dashboard air vents should remain open.

Note: the Clear View function auto- matically activates the air conditioning system (indicator light on). Press but-
ton 6 to return to automatic mode.
AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL (5/8)
In automatic mode, in cold weather, the ventilation will not start imme- diately at maximum power but will increase progressively until the engine temperature is warm enough to heat the passenger compartment air. This may take from a few sec- onds to several minutes.
Varying the ventilation speed
In automatic mode, the system uses the most suitable amount of air to reach and maintain the desired comfort level.
Automatic mode is switched off by
pressing buttons 9 and 11.
These buttons allow you to increase or decrease ventilation speed. If you set it to zero, the system switches off.
Switching air conditioning on
or off
In automatic mode, the system switches the air conditioning system on or off, depending on the climate conditions.
Exit automatic mode by pressing
button 3: the AUTO warning light on
display 5 goes out.
Button
3 activates (display warning light comes on) or stops (warning light goes out) the air conditioning function.

AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL (7/8)
Note: if you wish to reduce the air flow (which may produce a certain amount of noise in the passenger compart-
ment), press button 11.
To exit this function, press either:
– button
1 again;
– button
6 (the AUTO indicator light on the display will light up).
This function rapidly demists/de-ices the windscreen, the front side windows and the door mirrors (depending on the vehicle).
It imposes automatic operation of the air conditioning and heating of the rear
screen (warning light 13), and inhibits air recirculation.
Press button
12 if you do not want the heated rear screen to be activated.
Warning light 13 will go out.

Prolonged use of the air recirculation mode may cause the windows to mist up or lead to odours, as the air is not renewed.
We therefore advise you to return to normal mode (external air) by pressing
button 14 again as soon as the air recir- culation function is no longer required, or return to automatic recirculation by
pressing the AUTO button.
Air recirculation mode
Pressing button 14 activates air recir- culation (the symbol lights up on the display).
During recirculation, air is taken from the passenger compartment and is re- cycled, with no air being taken from out- side the vehicle.
Air recirculation allows the external at- mosphere to be cut off (when driving in polluted areas, etc.).

Variant 1Variant 2Interpretation of messages
25302Message 1“Oil level OK”
The message “oil” is
displayed, alternating
with dashes
No displayMessage 2“Adjust oil level”
If the level is at minimum: depending on the vehicle, the message “top up oil level” or “oil” appears on the display, al-
ternating with dashes and the © warning light on the instrument panel comes on: message 2.
It is vital to top up the oil as soon as possible.
Engine oil level: general information
The display only warns the driver if the oil level is at the minimum level. It does not inform the driver that the oil level has exceeded the maximum level as this can only be measured
using a dipstick.
Minimum oil level warning on instru- ment panel
When the ignition is switched on, if the level is above the minimum level, the message “oil ok” or “oil level correct” is shown on the display for approximately 15 seconds.For more information, press the trip computer readout button: the message
“oil level” will be shown on the display with squares which are replaced by dashes when the level drops.
To advance to trip computer reading, press the button again.
It is normal for an engine to use oil for lubrication and cooling of moving parts and it is normal to top up the level be- tween oil changes.
However, contact your approved Dealer if more than 0.5 litres is being consumed every 600 miles (1,000 km) after the running in period.
Check the oil level at regular inter- vals and before any long journey to avoid the risk of damaging your engine.
Reading the oil level
The oil level should be read with the ve- hicle on level ground, after the engine has been switched off for some time.
The dipstick must be used to read the exact oil level and make sure that the maximum level has not been exceeded (risk of engine damage). Refer to the following pages.
The instrument panel display only alerts the driver when the oil level is at its min- imum.
