COMFORT
DIGITAL AIR CONDITIONING
The air conditioning operates when the
engine is running, as well as in STOP
mode with Stop & Start. For your comfort, when the en-
gine is switched off, the settings
are retained until the engine is
switched on again.
To prevent too great a distribu-
tion of cold air when the engine
is cold, the air fl ow will only reach
its optimum level gradually.
On entering the vehicle, if the
interior is very cold or hot, there
is no need to change the value
displayed in order to reach the
required level of comfort. The
system corrects the temperature
difference automatically and as
quickly as possible.


1. Automatic "comfort" programme
Press the "AUTO"
button. The
"AUTO"
symbol is displayed.
We recommend that you use this mode.
It provides optimised automatic control
of all of the following functions: passen-
ger compartment temperature, air fl ow,
air distribution and air intake, in accor-
dance with the comfort value that you
have chosen.
This system is designed to operate ef-
fectively in all seasons, with the windows
closed.
2. Temperature adjustment
The value indicated on the display cor-
responds to a level of comfort and not
to a temperature in degrees Celsius or
Fahrenheit.
Press the "



"
and "



"
but-
tons to change this value. A
setting around the value 21
en-
ables optimum comfort to be
obtained. However, depending
on your requirements, a setting
between 18 and 24 is usual.
3. Automatic "visibility" programme
The automatic comfort pro-
gramme may not be suffi cient
for rapid demisting or defrost-
ing of the windscreen and side
windows (humidity, several
passengers, ice, etc.).
In this case, select the automatic visibil-
ity programme. The button 3
indicator
lamp comes on.
The system automatically controls the
air conditioning and the fl ow of air and
provides optimum air distribution to the
windscreen and side windows. It deacti-
vates air recirculation 5
.
To exit this programme, press button 3

again or "AUTO"
, the indicator lamp on
the button goes off and "AUTO"
is dis-
played.


Manual override

It is possible to adjust one or more func-
tions manually while leaving the other
functions in automatic mode.
The "AUTO"
symbol switches off.
To return to automatic mode, press the
"AUTO"
button.
Switching to manual mode may
not be suitable (temperature,
humidity, odour, condensation)
and does not provide optimum
comfort.

is
displayed.

5. Air intake/Air recirculation
Press this button for recircula-
tion of the interior air. The air
recirculation symbol 5

played.
Air recirculation enables the passenger
compartment to be isolated from exte-
rior odours and smoke.
6. Air distribution adjustment Avoid prolonged recirculation of
interior air (risk of condensation
or deterioration of the air quality).
Pressing this button several
times in succession enables
the air fl ow to be directed in
turn towards:


- the windscreen and the side win-
dows (demisting or defrosting),

- the windscreen, side windows and
air vents,

- the windscreen, the side windows,
the air vents and the footwells,

and the footwells,

- the air vents and the footwells,

- the air vents.

Press the "full fan"
button to
increase the air fl ow.
The air fl ow symbol, the fan, fi lls pro-
gressively according to the value re-
quested.

Switching the system off
Avoid driving for long periods
with the air conditioning switched
off (risk of misting and reduction
of the air quality in the cabin). Press the air fl ow "empty fan"

button 7
until the fan symbol
disappears.
This action switches off all of the func-
tions of the air conditioning system.

Thermal comfort is no longer controlled.
A slight fl ow of air resulting from the
movement of the vehicle, remains per-
ceptible however.

the values set before it was switched off. Press the "empty fan"
button
to decrease the air fl ow. For maximum cooling or heating
