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 mainte-
nance guidelines below: 
   
 
 ) 
  If the interior temperature remains very high after the vehicle has been parked 
in the sun for a considerable time, fi rst ventilate the passenger compartment 
for a few minutes.  
  Place the air fl ow control at a suffi cient level to provide an adequate renewal 
of air in the passenger compartment. 
   
 ) 
  To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air 
intake grilles located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents 
and the air outlets, as well as the air extractor located in the boot. 
   
 ) 
  Use in preference the intake of exterior air as prolonged use of the air recir-
culation may cause misting of the windows and side windows. 
   
 ) 
  Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for 
regulation of the automatic air conditioning system. 
   
 ) 
  Operate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a 
month to keep it in perfect working order. 
   
 ) 
  Ensure that the passenger compartment fi lter is in good condition 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 the purifi cation of the air 
breathed by the occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compart-
ment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits). 
   
 ) 
  The air conditioning uses power from the engine while operating. This 
results in an increase in the vehicle's fuel consumption.  
  When towing at or near maximum capacity or on steep slopes in high 
ambient temperatures, switching off the air conditioning saves engine power 
and so improves towing capacity.  
  Condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of water 
under the vehicle when stationary, which is perfectly normal. 
   
 ) 
  To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, 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.    The control button is located 
on the air conditioning system 
control panel. 
REAR SCREEN DEMIST/DEFROST 
   
 
 
 ) 
  Switch off the demist/de-frost of the rear screen and door mirrors as soon as it 
is no longer necessary as 
lower current consump-
tion results in reduced fuel 
consumption.  
 
 
 
Switching on 
 
The rear screen demist/defrost can only 
operate when the engine is running. 
   
 
 ) 
  Press this button to demist/defrost 
the rear screen and the door mir-
rors. The indicator lamp associated 
with the button comes on.  
 
 
 
Switching off 
 
The demist/defrost switches off auto-
matically to prevent an excessive con-
sumption of current. 
   
 
 ) 
  It is possible to stop the demist/de-
frost operation before it is switched off 
automatically by pressing the button 
again. The indicator lamp associated 
with the button switches off.  
  

69
  On entering the vehicle, if the 
interior temperature is much 
colder or warmer than the 
comfort value, there is no need to 
change the value displayed in order 
to obtain the comfort required more 
quickly. The system corrects the dif-
ference in temperature automatically 
and as quickly as possible.  
   
 
 
 
 
The air conditioning only operates when 
the engine is running, except in STOP 
mode of Stop & Start.   The driver and front passenger 
can each adjust the tempera-
ture to their requirements. 
   
 
 ) 
  Turn control  2 
 or  3 
 to the left or to 
the right respectively to decrease or 
increase this value.  
  A setting around the value 21 provides 
optimum comfort. However, depend-
ing on your requirements, a setting be-
tween 18 and 24 is normal. 
  You are advised to avoid a left/right set-
ting difference of more than 3.    
4. Automatic visibility programme 
  The automatic comfort pro-
gramme may not be suffi cient 
to quickly demist or defrost 
the windscreen and side win-
dows (humidity, several pas-
sengers, ice, etc.). 
   
 
 ) 
 Press the  "AUTO" 
 button. 
The indicator lamp on the 
button comes on.

DUAL-ZONE DIGITAL AIR
CONDITIONING
  We recommend the use of this mode: 
it permits automatic and optimised ad-
justment of all of the functions, passen-
ger compartment temperature, air fl ow, 
air distribution and air recirculation, in 
accordance with the comfort value that 
you have chosen. 
  This system is designed to operate ef-
fectively in all seasons, with the windows 
closed. 
  The value indicated in the screen cor-
responds to a level of comfort and not 
to a temperature in degrees Celsius or 
Fahrenheit.

  To switch it off, press the  "visibility" 
 
button again or press the  "AUTO" 
 
button, the indicator lamp in the but-
ton goes off or the indicator lamp in 
the  "AUTO" 
 button comes on.  
 
     
1. Automatic comfort programme   To prevent too great a dis-
tribution of cold air when the 
engine is cold, the air fl ow will 
reach its optimum level gradually. 
  In cold weather, it favours the distri-
bution of warm air to the windscreen, 
side windows and footwells only.  
   
 
 
 
 
 
With Stop & Start, when de-
misting has been activated, the 
STOP mode is not available.      
 
 ) 
  In this case, select the automatic 
visibility programme.  
  The system automatically controls the 
air conditioning, the air fl ow and the air 
intake and provides optimum distribu-
tion of the ventilation to the windscreen 
and side windows.

  AIRBAGS
 
Deployment of the airbag(s) is 
accompanied by a slight emis-
sion of harmless smoke and 
a noise, due to the activation of the 
pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated in 
the system. 
  This smoke is not harmful, but sensi-
tive individuals may experience slight 
irritation. 
  The noise of the detonation may re-
sult in a slight loss of hearing for a 
short time.  
 
Front airbags
 
System which protects the driver and 
front passenger in the event of a seri-
ous front impact in order to limit the risk 
of injury to the head and thorax. 
  The driver's airbag is fi tted in the centre 
of the steering wheel; the front passen-
ger's airbag is fi tted in the dashboard 
above the glove box. 
   
Deployment 
  The airbags are deployed simultane-
ously, unless the passenger's front 
airbag is deactivated, in the event of a 
serious front impact to all or part of the 
front impact zone  A 
, in the longitudinal 
centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal 
plane and directed from the front to the 
rear of the vehicle. 
  The front airbag infl ates between the 
thorax and head of the front occupant 
of the vehicle and the steering wheel, 
driver's side, and the dashboard, pas-
senger's side to cushion their forward 
movement.      
Impact detection zones 
   
 
A. 
  Front impact zone. 
   
B. 
  Side impact zone.  
   
The airbags do not oper-
ate when the ignition is 
switched off. 
 
  This equipment will only deploy once. 
If a second impact occurs (during the 
same or a subsequent accident), the 
airbag will not be deployed again.     
System designed to maximise the safety 
of the occupants (with the exception of 
the rear centre passenger) in the event 
of violent collisions. It supplements the 
action of the force-limiting seat belts 
(with the exception of the rear centre 
passenger). 
  If a collision occurs, the electronic de-
tectors record and analyse the front and 
side impacts sustained in the impact 
detection zones: 
   
 
-   in the case of a serious impact, the 
airbags are deployed instantly and 
protect the occupants of the vehicle 
(with the exception of the rear centre 
passenger); immediately after the 
impact, the airbags defl ate  rapidly 
so that they do not hinder visibility 
or the exit of the occupants, 
   
-   in the case of a minor or rear impact 
or in certain roll-over conditions, the 
airbags will not be deployed; the 
seat belt alone is suffi cient to pro-
vide optimum protection in these 
situations.   

CHECKS

Particle emission filter (Diesel) 
 
It is imperative that the maintenance of 
the particle emission fi lter is carried out 
by a PEUGEOT dealer. 
  Following prolonged opera-
tion of the vehicle at very low 
speed or at idle, you may, in 
exceptional circumstances, notice 
the emission of water vapour at the 
exhaust on acceleration. This does 
not affect the behaviour of the vehi-
cle or the environment.  
 
 
Dust filter/Anti-odour filter 
(activated carbon) 
  Your vehicle is fi tted with a fi lter  which 
traps certain dust and limits odours in 
the ventilation and air conditioning. 
  Refer to the Warranty and Maintenance 
Record for its replacement interval. 
  Do not hesitate to change it if you no-
tice unpleasant odours, contact a 
PEUGEOT dealer. 
  A clogged passenger compartment fi lter 
may reduce the performance of the air 
conditioning system and produce un-
pleasant odours.  
 
 
Only use products recom-
mended by PEUGEOT or 
products of equivalent quality 
and specifi cations. 
  In order to optimise the opera-
tion of units as important as the brak-
ing system, PEUGEOT selects and 
offers very specifi c products. 
  To avoid damaging the electrical 
units, the use of a high pressure 
washer in the engine compartment is 
strictly  prohibited

Brake pads 
 
Brake wear depends on the 
style of driving, particularly in 
the case of vehicles used in 
town, over short distances. It 
may be necessary to have the 
condition of the brakes checked, even 
between vehicle services. 
  Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a 
drop in the brake fl uid level indicates 
that the brake pads are worn.  
  For information on checking 
brake disc wear, contact a 
PEUGEOT dealer.  
 
 
6-speed electronic gear control
