Switching the function off



- Place the switch in position 0
or switch
off the ignition to switch the system off.
The last programmed speed remains in the
memory.


Exceeding the programmed speed

Pressing the accelerator pedal in order to
exceed the programmed speed will have
no effect unless you press the pedal firmly
beyond the point of resistance
.
The limiter is deactivated temporarily and
the programmed speed flashes.

Good practice



Operating fault

The programmed speed is cleared then
replaced by three dashes.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.

Flashing of the speed

The speed flashes:


- following forcing of the accelerator point
of resistance,

- when the limiter cannot prevent an
increase in the vehicle speed due to the
profile of the road or on a steep descent,

- in the event of sharp acceleration.
To return to the limiter function, reduce your
speed to below the programmed speed. In any event, the speed limiter cannot
replace the need to observe speed limits,
nor can it replace the need for vigilance and
responsibility on the part of the driver.
Always pay attention to the profile of the
road and sharp acceleration and stay in
complete control of your vehicle.
To avoid any jamming under the pedals:


- ensure that the mat and its fixings on the
floor are positioned correctly,

- never place one mat on top of another.

control towards:
the side vents and the central
vents,
the side vents, the central vents
and the footwells,
the footwells,
the windscreen and the footwells,
Air flow

The air conditioning does not operate if the
air flow is set to 0.
The air distribution can be
modulated by placing the control
in the intermediate positions,
marked "●".

operation of the air conditioning,
the LED is on. Pressing the button
again switches the function off
and the LED goes off.
Temperature adjustment
Control positioned:


- in the blue zone, produces
cool air,

- in the red zone, produces
heating of the interior air.

Recommended settings

For optimum operation of the manual system, the settings below are recommended: The LED in the button is off.
This is the preferred operating
position.
The LED in the button is on.
Recirculation temporarily prevents
exterior odours and smoke from
entering the passenger compartment.
Used with the air conditioning switched on
and setting of the force of blown air (from
1 to 4), recirculation enables you to obtain
the required ambient air comfort level more
quickly with both hot or cold settings.
This position should only be temporary.
When your ambient air comfort level has
been reached, return to the intake of exterior
air position to permit renewal of the air in the
passenger compartment and avoid misting.
This operating mode is preferable.

DIGITAL AIR CONDITIONING WITH SEPARATE SETTINGS
Good practice
For maximum cooling or heating of the
passenger compartment, it is possible to exceed
the value 15 by turning until LO is displayed or
the value 27 by turning until HI is displayed.
For optimum comfort, the difference between
the value displayed for the driver and for the
passenger should not be greater than 3. If your vehicle is fitted with this control
panel, it is located on the centre console. On entering the vehicle, the inside
temperature may be much colder (or
warmer) than is comfortable. There is no
advantage in changing the value displayed
in order to quickly reach the level of comfort
required. The system will use its maximum
performance to reach the comfort value set.

Driver or passenger side comfort value
The value indicated on the display
corresponds to a level of comfort and not a
temperature in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit. Automatic operation
Do not cover the sunshine sensor,
located on the windscreen behind the
mirror, it is used for regulation of the air
conditioning.

AUTO comfort programme
This is the normal air conditioning system
operating mode.
Press this button, the AUTO
symbol is displayed.
Depending on the comfort value
selected, the system controls the
distribution, the fl ow and the intake of air to
guarantee comfort and a suffi cient circulation
of air in the passenger compartment. No
further action on your part is required.
When the engine is cold, to prevent an
excessive diffusion of cold air, the ventilation
will reach its optimum level gradually.
For your comfort, the settings are stored
when the ignition is switched off and are
reinstated the next time the vehicle is
started, if the temperature in the passenger
compartment has not changed signifi cantly;
otherwise, operation resumes in automatic
mode. Turn this control to the left
or to the right to decrease or
increase the value. A setting
around the value 21 provides
optimum comfort.
However, depending on your requirements,
a setting between 18 and 24 is usual.

Air flow
Press the small fan
button to
reduce the flow or the large fan
button to increase the flow.
On the display, the blades of the
fan darken when the flow is increased.

Manual operation

You can, according to your requirements,
make a different selection from that offered
by the system by changing a setting.
The other functions will still be controlled
automatically. Pressing the AUTO

Recirculation of interior air
Press this button to recirculate
the interior air. The recirculation
symbol is displayed.
Recirculation prevents exterior odours
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.
Air distribution
Pressing this button several times
in succession directs the air flow
towards:


- the windscreen,

- the windscreen and footwells,

- the footwells,

- the side vents, central vents and
footwells,

- the side vents and central vents.

Deactivating the system

system's functions, with the exception of the
air recirculation and rear screen demisting
(if fitted on your vehicle). Your comfort
setting is no longer maintained and is
switched off.
For your comfort, do not deactivate the
system for long periods.

CORRECT USE OF THE VENTILATION AND AIR
CONDITIONING
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) towards the top of the body. For your
comfort while driving, do not close them,
direct the flow of air towards the windows
instead.
The air vents directed towards the floor of
the vehicle complete the equipment.


Passenger compartment filter, carbon filter

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, first 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 flow, 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 perfect working order.
It is normal that the condensation created by
the air conditioning system results in a flow
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 qualified workshop.

DEMISTING AND DEFROSTING

Returning to exterior air intake
open permits renewal of the air
in the passenger compartment
(LED off). Turn the control to this air
distribution setting.
