For even air distribution, take care not
to obstruct the exterior air intake grille
located at the bottom of the windscreen,
the vents, the air outlets under the front
seats and the air extractor located be-
hind the fl aps in the boot. The water formed by the air condition-
ing condensation is discharged via
an opening provided for this purpose.
Therefore, a puddle of water may form
underneath the vehicle when stationary.
If the system does not produce cold air,
do not use it and have it checked by a
CITROËN dealer. AUTOMATIC REGULATION OF
THE AIR CONDITIONING
Do not cover the temperature and
humidity sensor
2 and the sunshine
sensor 7 .
They are required for regulation of the
air conditioning.
Advice on operation
In hot weather, in order to obtain in-
tense ventilation, it is advisable to
use vents 1 and 4 only.
If, when the vehicle has been parked
in the sun for a long time, the interior
temperature remains very high, fi rst
ventilate the passenger compart-
ment for a few minutes. Switch off the air conditioning
when the climatic conditions
permit.
Use of the automatic regulation of the
air conditioning is recommended. It per-
mits automatic and optimised control of
all of the following functions: air fl ow,
passenger compartment temperature
and air distribution, by means of various
sensors (ambient temperature, interior
temperature, sunshine), so preventing
the need for you to change your set-
tings other than the value displayed.
In certain cases of particularly ardu-
ous use (towing the maximum load on
a steep gradient in hot weather), switc-
hing off the air conditioning saves en-
gine power and therefore improves the
towing capacity.
Close the windows to benefi t from the
full effectiveness of the air conditioning.
Ensure that the passenger compart-
ment fi lter is in good condition. Have
the fi lter elements replaced periodically.
If you drive in a dusty environment, re-
place it twice as often.
The air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and is not harmful to
the ozone layer.
Operate the air conditioning system for
5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month,
to keep it in good working order.

AUTOMATIC AIR
CONDITIONING
Automatic operation

 Set the temperature control dial 3 to
the temperature required.

 Place the air fl ow control dial 2 in
the "
AUTO" position.

 Place the air distribution adjustment
dial 1 in the "
AUTO" position. When the engine is cold, to avoid an
excessive distribution of cold air, the
ventilation will reach its optimum le-
vel gradually.
On entering the vehicle, the interior
temperature may be much colder (or
warmer) than the comfort tempera-
ture. There is no need to change the
temperature displayed in order to
reach the comfort required rapidly.
The automatic regulation of the air
conditioning will operate to correct
the temperature difference as quickly
as possible.

imum (Rapid heating), the intake of
exterior air is activated and the air
conditioning stops.

 when the temperature is set to mini-
mum (Rapid cooling), the air re-
circulation is activated and the air
conditioning operates.
The system controls the air distribu-
tion, air fl ow, temperature and air intake
to ensure the level of comfort and ad-
equate air circulation in the passenger
compartment. No further action on your
part is required.
