Controls
The controls will depend on the vehicle
equipment level.
1 Distribution of air.
2 Switching air conditioning on or off.
3 Adjusting the ventilation fan speed.
4 De-icing/demisting of the rear screen and, depending on the vehicle, the
door mirrors
5 Air temperature adjuster.
6 Switching passenger compartment isolation mode/air recirculation mode
on
Leaving this control in position 0 for
prolonged periods can lead to con-
densation forming on the side win-
dows and windscreen and problems
due to the use of non-renewed air in
the passenger compartment.
Adjusting the air temperature
Turn control 5 to obtain the desired
temperature. The further towards the
red the slide is, the higher the tempera-
ture will be.
Adjusting the ventilation fan
speed.
Turn control 3 from 0 to 4. The further
to the right it is positioned, the more air
is blown into the passenger compart-
ment. If you want to shut off the flow of
air completely and stop the system, set
control 3 to 0.
The system is deactivated: the ventila-
tion speed for the passenger compart-
ment air is zero (vehicle stationary),
you can however still feel a slight flow
of air when the vehicle is moving.
Information and advice on use: refer
to information on “Air conditioning: in-
formation and advice on use”.

HEATING, VENTILATION, AIR CONDITIONING (2/3)
Switching passenger
compartment isolation mode/
air recirculation mode on.
Bring lever 6 to position â.
Under these conditions, air is taken
from the passenger compartment and
is recirculated, with no air being taken
from outside the vehicle. Air recirculation is used to:
– to isolate the passenger compart-
ment from the external atmosphere
(e.g. driving in polluted areas, etc.);
– to bring the passenger compartment to the desired temperature as quickly
as possible.
Prolonged use of air recirculation can lead to condensation forming on the side
windows and windscreen, and discomfort due to the use of non-renewed air\
in
the passenger compartment.
You are therefore advised to return to normal mode (external air) as so\
on as the
air recirculation function is no longer required, by turning control 6 to the right.

– air from the outside;
– maximum fan speed;
– demisting.
Using the climate control increases the
speed of demisting.

windscreen/
Heated windscreen
With the engine running , press
button 4 (the warning light comes on).
Depending on the vehicle, this function
de-ices/demists the rear windscreen,
the electric rear-view mirrors and the
windscreen.
Depending on the vehicle, the function
is stopped:
– automatically after a period of time set by the system (warning light goes
out);
– by pressing button 4 again (the warn-
ing light goes out).

Distribution of air in the
passenger compartment
Turn control 1 to choose the distribution
option.
JAll the air flow is directed to the
dashboard vents.
GThe air flow is directed towards
the dashboard vents and the
footwells.
FThe air flow is mainly distrib-
uted between the front and
rear footwells and the dashboard vents.
Close the dashboard vents to direct all
the air to the foot wells.
iThe air flow is distributed be-
tween all the air vents, the
front side window demisting air vents,
the windscreen demisting vents and the
footwells.
WAll the air is then directed to
the windscreen and front side
window demisting vents.
Switching air conditioning on
or off
The air conditioning is switched on (in-
dicator light illuminated) or off (indicator
light extinguished) using button 2.
Activation is not possible if control 3 is
set to 0.
The air conditioning system is used
for:
– lower the temperature inside the passenger compartment;
– eliminate condensation more quickly.
The air conditioning does not operate
when the exterior temperature is low.
321
Fuel consumption increases when
the air conditioning is being used
(switch it off when it is not required).

or reduce the ventilation speed.
Adjusting the air temperature
Turn control 2 to obtain the desired
temperature.
Turning the control to the right in-
creases the temperature.
Special note: the maximum and mini-

speed, air distribution, air recirculation,
and starting and stopping the air condi-
tioning and air temperature.

Air recirculation (isolation of
the passenger compartment)
K
This function is managed automatically
(operation is confirmed by a warning
light on button 7), but you can also acti-
vate it manually. Manual use
Press button 7 – the integrated indica-
tor light comes on.
Prolonged use of this position may lead
to odours, caused by non-renewal of
air, and the formation of condensation
on the windows.
We therefore advise you to return to au-
tomatic mode as soon as air recircula-
tion is no longer needed, by pressing
button 7.
To exit this function, press button
7
again.
Stopping the system
Turn control 6 to “OFF” to stop the
system. To start, turn control 6 again
to adjust the blower speed or press
button 1.

NB:
– during recirculation, air is taken from the passenger compartment and
is recycled, with no air being taken
from outside the vehicle;
– air recirculation allows the external atmosphere to be cut off (when driv-
ing in polluted areas, etc.);
– bringing the passenger compartment to the desired temperature as quickly
as possible.
The demisting/de-icing will still take
priority over the air recirculation.

Fuel consumption
You will normally notice an increase in
fuel consumption (especially when driv-
ing in town) when the air conditioning is
operating.
For vehicles fitted with air conditioning
with no automatic mode, switch off the
system when it is not required.
Advice for reducing consumption
and helping to preserve the environ-
ment
Drive with the air vents open and the
windows closed.
If the vehicle has been parked in the
sun, open the doors for a few moments
to let the hot air escape before starting
the engine.
Maintenance
Refer to the Maintenance Document
for your vehicle for the inspection fre-
quency.
AIR CONDITIONING: information and advice on use
Operating faults
As a general rule, contact your ap-
proved dealer in the event of an oper-
ating fault.
– Reduction in de-icing, demisting
or air conditioning performance .
This may be caused by the passen-
ger compartment filter cartridge be-
coming clogged.
– No cold air is being produced .
Check that the controls are set cor-
rectly and that the fuses are sound.
Otherwise, switch off the system.
Presence of water under the
vehicle
After prolonged use of the air condi-
tioning system, it is normal for water
to be present under the vehicle. This is
caused by condensation.
Do not open the refriger-
ant fluid circuit. The fluid
may damage eyes or skin.
