SWITCHING THE SYSTEM OFF



)
Turn the air fl ow control to the left until all of the indicator lamps
go off.
This action switches off the air conditioning and the ventilation.

of air, due to the movement of the vehicle, can still be felt.


)
Turn the air fl ow dial to the right or press the "AUTO"
button
to reactivate the system with the values set before it was
switched off.
Avoid prolonged operation in interior air recirculation mode or
driving for long periods with the system off (risk of condensation
and deterioration of the air quality).

of outside air and prevent the formation of condensation. The
indicator lamp on the button switches off.



9. Mono-zone / Dual-zone

excessive consumption of current.


)
It is possible to stop the demisting/defrosting operation before it
is switched off automatically by pressing the button again. The
indicator lamp associated with the button switches off.
If the engine is switched off before the demisting/defrosting is
switched off automatically, demisting/defrosting will resume next
time the engine is switched on.

Switch off the demisting/defrosting of the rear screen and door
mirrors as soon as appropriate as lower current consumption
results in reduced fuel consumption.
The control button is located on the heating or air conditioning
system control panel.

CHECKS













BATTERY









PARTICLE EMISSION FILTER (DIESEL)


On a new vehicle, the fi rst particle fi lter regeneration operations
may be accompanied by a "burning" smell, which is perfectly
normal.
Following prolonged operation 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 vehicle or the environment.

The battery does not require any maintenance.
However, check that the terminals are clean and correctly
tightened, particularly in summer and winter.
When carrying out work on the battery, refer to the "Battery"
section for details of the precautions to be taken before disconnecting
the battery and following its reconnection.

The start of saturation of the particle emissions fi lter is
indicated by the temporary illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible signal and a message on the risk
of blockage of the particle emissions fi lter.
As soon as the traffi c conditions permit, regenerate the fi lter by driving
at a speed of at least 40 mph (60 km/h) until the warning lamp goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, refer to the "Additive level" section.
Unless otherwise indicated, check these components in accordance
with the servicing and warranty booklet and according to your engine.
Otherwise, have them checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.





















AIR FILTER AND PASSENGER COMPARTMENT FILTER


Refer to the servicing and warranty booklet for details of
the replacement intervals for these components.
Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty atmosphere)
and the use of the vehicle (e.g. city driving), replace them
twice as often if necessary
.
A clogged passenger compartment fi lter may have an adverse effect
on the performance of the air conditioning system and generate
undesirable odours.
Replace the oil fi lter each time the engine oil is changed.
Refer to the servicing and warranty booklet for details of the
replacement interval for this component.














OIL FILTER

ENERGY ECONOMY MODE
System which manages the duration of use of certain functions to
conserve a suffi cient level of charge in the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can still use functions such as
the audio and telematic system, windscreen wipers, dipped beam
headlamps, courtesy lamp, etc. for a maximum combined duration of
thirty minutes.
This period may be greatly reduced if the battery is not fully charged.


SWITCHING TO ECONOMY MODE

Once this time has elapsed, a message appears in the screen indicating
that the vehicle has switched to economy mode and the active functions
are put on standby.
If the telephone is being used at this time:


- it will be maintained for 5 minutes with the Bluetooth system
of your Peugeot Connect Sound (RD5),

- it will still be possible to fi nish the call with the Peugeot Connect
Navigation (RT6) or Peugeot Connect Media (NG4 3D).



EXITING ECONOMY MODE

These functions are reactivated automatically next time the vehicle is
driven.
To restore operation of these functions immediately, start the engine
and let it run for at least 5 minutes.
Let the engine run for the period specifi ed to ensure that the battery
charge is suffi cient.
Do not repeatedly and continuously restart the engine in order to charge
the battery.
A fl at battery prevents the engine from starting (refer to the
"Battery" section).
LOAD REDUCTION MODE

System which manages the use of certain functions according to the
level of charge remaining in the battery.
When the vehicle is being driven, the load reduction function temporarily
deactivates certain functions, such as the air conditioning, the heated
rear screen...
The deactivated functions are reactivated automatically as soon as
conditions permit.
