will still be controlled automatically.
Pressing the AUTO
button restores fully
automatic operation.

Air distribution
Pressing this button several
times in succession directs
the air fl ow towards:


- the windscreen,

- the windscreen and footwells,

- the footwells,

- the side vents, central vents and
footwells,

- the side vents and central vents.

Air fl ow
Press the small fan

Deactivating the system
Press the air fl ow small fan

button until the fan symbol
disappears from the display.
This action deactivates all
of the system's functions, with the
exception of the air recirculation and
rear screen demisting (if fi tted on your
vehicle). Your comfort setting is no
longer maintained and is switched off.
Intake of exterior air/
Recirculation of interior air
Press this button to
recirculate the interior air.
The recirculation symbol is
displayed.
Pressing the large fan

button or the AUTO
button
reactivates the system with
the values set before it was

and smoke from entering the passenger
compartment. Avoid prolonged operation
in interior air recirculation mode (risk of
condensation, odour and humidity).
Pressing this button again activates the
intake of exterior air.
Pressing this button again switches off
the air conditioning.


The ventilation outlet, located
in the glove box, diffuses
cool air (if the air conditioning

temperature requested in the
passenger compartment and
regardless of the exterior temperature.
For your comfort, do not deactivate the
system for long periods.

Ventilation


DEMISTING AND DEFROSTING GOOD PRACTICE

Vents


"Leave them open"

For optimum distribution and diffusion
of hot or cool air in the passenger
compartment, there are adjustable
central and side vents which can
be directed sideways (right or left)
or vertically (up or down). For your
comfort while driving, do not close
them and direct the fl ow of air towards
the windows instead.
Air vents in the footwells and directed
towards the windscreen complete the
equipment.
Do not block the vents located at the
windscreen or the air extractor located
in the boot.


Dust filter, odour filter (activated
carbon)
This fi lter traps certain dust and limits
odours.
Ensure that this fi lter is in good
condition and have all of the fi lter
elements replaced regularly.
Refer to the "Checks" section of chapter 6.


Air conditioning

In all seasons, the air conditioning
should only be used with the windows
closed. However, if the interior
temperature remains high after a
prolonged period parked in the sun, do
not hesitate to ventilate the passenger
compartment for a few minutes.
Use the AUTO mode as much as
possible as it permits optimised
control of all of the functions: air fl ow,
passenger compartment comfort
temperature, air distribution, air
intake mode or air recirculation in the
passenger compartment.
Operate the air conditioning system for
5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month,
to keep it in good working order.
It is normal that the condensation
created by the air conditioning system
results in a fl ow of water which may
form a puddle under the vehicle when
parked.
If the system does not produce cold air,
do not use it and contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
Automatic mode: visibility
programme
The comfort programme (AUTO) may
not be suffi cient to quickly demist or
defrost the windows (humidity, several
passengers, ice).
In this case, select the visibility
programme. The visibility programme
indicator comes on.
It activates the air conditioning, the air
fl ow and provides optimum distribution
of the ventilation to the windscreen and
side windows.
It deactivates the air recirculation.

Seats



Handling the Row 3 seat


Removing the seat


- Lower the head restraint.

- Place the seat in the fully folded
position.

- Tilt the entire seat forwards.

- On each side, take hold of the
uprights of the folded seat, tilting it
forward slightly, and lift it.

Repositioning the seat
The label on the seat indicates the
position in which it must be installed.


- Place the hooks of the front feet
between the two bars.

- Ensure that no object or foot is
obstructing the rear anchoring
recesses and that the seat belt is
positioned correctly and available.

- Fold back the seat to fi x its rear
anchoring feet.

- Operate the control to raise the
seat back to its initial position.

- Raise the head restraint.




Good practice

Do not place hard or heavy objects on
the seat backs forming a table, they
could become dangerous projectiles in
the event or sharp braking or impact.
Following the various operations:


- do not remove a head restraint
without storing it, fi x it to a support
in the vehicle,

- ensure that the passengers can
always access the seat belts and
fasten them easily,

- passengers must never take
their seat without adjusting and
fastening their seat belt,

- a passenger seated in row 3 must
ensure that he does not obstruct
the row 2 seat anchoring recesses,

- a passenger seated in row 3 must
not have the seat in front of them in
row 2 in the folded position; this is
in case the seat should tip towards
the passenger unexpectedly and
injure them.
