VENTILATION


1.
Windscreen de-icing or
demisting vents.

2.
Front window de-icing or
demisting vents.

3.
Side vents.

4.
Centre vents.

5.
Air outlets to front footwells. The air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and does not present
any danger to the ozone layer.
Operate the air conditioning system
for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a
month, to keep it in perfect working
order.
The water created by the air condi-
tioning condensation is discharged
via an opening provided for this pur-
pose. 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 contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.

De-icing the rear windows and
mirrors
With the engine running, pressing
the control de-ices the rear windows
and mirrors.
It switches off automatically after
approximately twelve minutes.
Pressing the control again switches
the de-icing system on again for twelve
minutes.
It is possible to switch off the de-
icing by pressing the control before
the twelve minutes have elapsed.



Advice on operation

Select the air distribution most suited
to your requirements and the climatic
conditions.
Gradually adjust the temperature
setting for your comfort.
Position the air control in the ''Outside
Air'' position.
For perfectly even air distribution,
take care not to obstruct the exterior
air intake grille and the vents. Check
that the passenger compartment fi lter
is in good condition.
When the engine is cold, to prevent
too great a distribution of cold air, the
ventilation will increase to its opti-
mum level gradually.
In order to be effective, the air condi-
tioning ( A/C
button), should only be
used with the windows closed.
If the interior temperature remains
very high following a prolonged period
parked in the sun, do not hesitate to
ventilate the passenger compartment
for a few minutes.

COMFORT30 -
Press the switch to activate
the air conditioning. The indi-
cator lamp comes on.
2. Air fl ow adjustment and air
intake control
Turn the control from position 1

to position 4
to obtain an air
fl ow suffi cient to ensure your
comfort.
AIR CONDITIONING


The air conditioning does not op-
erate while the air fl ow adjustment
control is in the minimum position.


Note:
to optimise the operation of
the air conditioning, leave the vents
open.
1. Air conditioning control
The air conditioning is designed to
operate in all seasons. In summer,
it enables the temperature to be
lowered and in winter, above 0° C,
it increases the effectiveness of the
demisting.

31COMFORT-

Additional heater
Vehicles which are fi tted with an HDI
engine may be fi tted with automatic
additional heating to improve your
comfort.
When the engine is idling or the ve-
hicle is stationary, it is quite normal to
notice a high-pitched whistling noise
and a slight emission of smoke and
odour.

Centre and side vents.
This setting is recommended for high
temperatures. Recirculation of interior air.
This position prevents exterior odours
and smoke entering the passenger
compartment.
Used simultaneously with the air con-
ditioning, recirculation enables both
heating and cooling performance to
be improved.
Used without the air conditioning,
recirculation may result in the forma-
tion of mist on the windows.
As soon as possible, position the con-
trol in the exterior air intake position.

3. Temperature adjustment
To be adjusted to your requirements.
From blue (cold when the air condi-
tioning is on) to red (hot).
4. Air distribution adjustment
Windscreen and side win-
dows (de-icing/demisting).
To quickly de-ice or demist the wind-
screen and side windows:


- turn the temperature and air fl ow
controls to maximum,

- close the centre vents,

- position the air intake control in
the "Outside Air" position,

- start the air conditioning.
Footwells.
These settings are recommended for
cold climates. Windscreen, side windows
and footwells. Intake of exterior air.
This is the normal operating position.

69 DRIVING
-
FRONT AIRBAGS
These are folded in the centre of the
steering wheel for the driver and in
the fascia for the front passenger.
They are deployed simultaneously,
except in cases where the passen-
ger airbag is disarmed, in the event
of a serious front impact applied in
the impact zone A
in the longitudinal
centreline of the vehicle, on a hori-
zontal plane and from the front of the
vehicle towards the rear. The airbag
infl ates between the front occupant of
the vehicle and the fascia to cushion
his forward movement. The airbags
therefore limit the risk of injury to the
head and chest.
The airbags have been designed to
maximise the safety of the occupants
in the event of serious collisions. They
work in conjunction with the force-lim-
iting seat belts. The electronic detec-
tors register and analyse any abrupt
deceleration of the vehicle in the im-
pact detection zones (see diagram):
if the triggering threshold is reached,
the airbags infl ate instantly and pro-
tect the occupants of the vehicle.

Impact detection zones


A.
Front impact zone.

B.
Side impact zone. Immediately after the impact, the
airbags defl ate rapidly so that they
do not hinder the visibility of the oc-
cupants nor their exit if necessary
from the vehicle.
The airbags are not deployed in the
case of minor impacts, rear impacts
or in certain roll-over conditions. The
seat belt is suffi cient to ensure maxi-
mum protection in these situations.
The seriousness of a collision de-
pends on the nature of the obstacle
and the speed of the vehicle at the
moment of the collision.

Airbags only operate when the
ignition is switched on.


Note
: the gas escaping from
the airbags can be a minor
irritant.
