Switching passenger
compartment isolation mode/
air recirculation mode on
Push control D to the left.
U nder these conditions, air is taken
from the passenger compartment and
is recirculated, with no air being taken
from outside the vehicle. Air recirculation is used to:
–

i
solate the passenger compartment
from the external atmosphere (eg.:
driving in polluted areas, etc.);
– bring the passenger compartment to
the desired temperature more effec-
tively.
To return to the external air position,
push control

D
to the right.
Prolonged use of this position
can lead to condensation forming
on the side windows and wind-
screen and problems due to the
use of non-renewed air in the
passenger compartment.
It is therefore advisable to return to
normal operation (external air) by
moving control
D

to the right once
you are out of the polluted area.

Before using the rear wiper, check that no object is obstructing the travel of the
blade.
In frosty weather, make sure that the wiper blades are not stuck by ice (to avoid
the risk of the motor overheating).
Keep an eye on the condition of the blades. Replace the wiper blades as soon as
they begin to lose efficiency (approximately once a year).
Regularly clean your rear screen.

AIR CONDITIONING: information and advice on use
Fuel consumption
You will normally notice an increase
in fuel consumption (especially
when driving in town) when the air
conditioning is operating.
For vehicles fitted with air condition-
ing with no automatic mode, switch
off the system when it is not re-
quired.
Advice for reducing consumption
and helping to preserve the envi-
ronment
Drive with the air vents open and
the windows closed.
If the vehicle has been parked in
the sun, open the doors for a few
moments to let the hot air escape
before starting the engine. Operating faults
As a general rule, contact your ap-
proved dealer in the event of an op-
erating fault.

Tyre inflation kit
TYRE INFLATION KIT (1/3)
The kit repairs tyres with
tread A
damaged by ob-
jects smaller than 4 mm. It
cannot repair all types of
puncture, such as cuts of more than
4 mm, or cuts in tyre sidewall
B etc.
Ensure also that the wheel rim is in
good condition.
Do not pull out the foreign body
causing the puncture if it is still in
the tyre.
Do not attempt to use the
inflation kit if the tyre has
been damaged as a result
of driving with a puncture.
You should therefore carefully check
the condition of the tyre sidewalls
before any operation.
Driving with underinflated, flat or
punctured tyres can be dangerous
and may make the tyre impossible
to repair.
This repair is temporary
A tyre which has been punctured
should always be inspected (and re-
paired, where possible) as soon as
possible by a specialist.
When replacing a tyre repaired with
this kit, you must consult a special-
ist. When driving, vibration may be
felt due to the presence of the repair
product injected into the tyre.The kit is only approved for
inflating the tyres of the ve-
hicle originally equipped
with the kit.
It must never be used to inflate
the tyres of another vehicle, or any
other inflatable object (rubber ring,
rubber boat, etc.).
Avoid spillage on skin when han-
dling the repair liquid bottle. If drop-
lets do leak out, rinse them off with
plenty of water.
Keep the repair kit away from chil-
dren.
Do not dispose of the empty bottle
in the countryside. Return it to your
approved dealer or to a recycling or-
ganisation.
The bottle has a limited service
life which is indicated on its label.
Check the expiry date.
Contact an approved dealer to re-
place the inflation tube and repair
product bottle.
