tional while the engine is stopped.
The  engine  will  restart  as  soon  as  you 
press  the  clutch  pedal  and  move  into 
gear.This  system  enables  a  reduced  fuel 
consumption  and  lower  greenhouse 
gas emissions.
The  system  is  activated  automatically 
when the vehicle is started.
While  driving,  the  system  stops  the 
engine  (standby)  when  the  vehicle  is 
at  a  standstill  (traffic  jam,  traffic  lights, 
etc).
System operating conditionsEngine standby is activated if:
–  the vehicle has been driven since its 
last stop;
–  the gearbox is in neutral;
–  the clutch pedal is released;
and
–  the vehicle is travelling at less than 3 
km/h. Special feature of the automatic 
engine re-start
Under  certain  conditions,  the  engine 
can  restart  on  its  own  in  order  to  guar-
antee your safety and comfort.
This can occur especially when:
– 
the outdoor temperature is too low or 
too  high  (less  than  around  0  °C  or 
higher than around 30 °C);
–  the “Clear View” function is activated 
(please  see  “Automatic  Climate 
Control” in Section 3);
–  the battery is not sufficiently charged;
–  the  vehicle  speed  is  above  7  km/h 
(downhill slope, etc.);
–  repeated  pressing  on  the  brake 
pedal  or  braking  system  require -
ment;

Automatic mode
The  automatic  climate  control  system 
guarantees  comfort  in  the  passen -
ger  compartment  and  good  visibility 
(except  in  the  event  of  extreme  condi -
tions),  whilst  optimising  consumption. 
The  system  controls  the  ventilation 
speed,  air  distribution,  air  recircula -
tion,  and  starting  and  stopping  the  air 
conditioning  and  air  temperature.  This 
mode consists of a choice of three pro-
grammes:
A uTo :  allows  the  selected  comfort 
level to be best attained, depending on 
the exterior conditions. Press button  3.
SoFT: gently brings the temperature to 
the  desired  comfort  level.  The  comfort 
level  is  then  maintained  gently  and  si -
lently. Press button 2.
FAST:   emphasises  the  actions  of  the 
system  to  reach  the  desired  comfort 
level more quickly. Use this programme 
when you have passengers in the rear. 
Press button 4.

Temperature adjustment
Press  either  button  1   or  5   to  increase 
or  decrease  the  temperature.  Pressing 
button 3  for  more  than  2  seconds  sets 
the  passenger  temperature  to  the  driv-
er’s temperature.
Special  note:   the  highest  and  lowest 
settings  allow  the  system  to  produce 
maximum hot or cold temperature levels 
(“LO” and “HI” display on screen  12).
Stopping the system
Press  the  bottom  of  button 11   sev -
eral  times  to  stop  the  system.  To  start 
it,  press  the  top  of  switch  11   or  one  of 
switches 2, 3 or 4.7

The  displayed  temperature  values 
show a comfort level.
When  starting  the  engine,  increas -
ing  or  decreasing  the  value  dis -
played  will  not  allow  the  com -
fort  level  to  be  reached  any  more 
quickly.  The  system  will  always  op-
timise  the  temperature  increase  or 
decrease  (the  ventilation  system 
does not start instantly at maximum 
speed:  it  gradually  increases).  This 
may take several minutes.
Generally  speaking,  unless  there  is 
a particular reason not to, the dash-
board air vents should remain open.
Switching air conditioning on 
or off
In automatic mode, the system switches 
the  air  conditioning  system  on  or  off, 
depending on the climate conditions.
Press  button  10   to  switch  off  the  air 
conditioning.
Varying the ventilation speed
In  automatic  mode,  the  system  uses 
the most suitable amount of air to reach 
and maintain the desired comfort level.
You  can  always  adjust  the  ventilation 
speed by pressing on the top or bottom 
of button 11 to increase or decrease the 
ventilation speed.
In  this  situation,  the  ventilation  speed, 
which  is  no  longer  automatically  con -
trolled, appears on the display.
Where  possible,  it  is  recom -
mended  that  automatic  mode  is 
used by selecting one of the auto-
matic  programmes:  AuT o, SoFT 
or FAST.
In  automatic  mode  (indicator  light 
for  button  3  on),  all  heating  and  air 
conditioning functions are controlled 
by the system.
You  can  also  change  the  system 
selection,  in  this  case,  indicator 
light  for  button  3  will  go  out  and 
the  changed  function,  which  is  no 
longer  controlled  by  the  system,  is 
shown on display  12.
To  return  to  automatic  mode,  press 
one  of  programmes:  AuTo , S o FT 
or FAST.

Press  button  8 ,  the  integrated  indica -
tor comes on and the indicator light for 
button 3 goes out.
This  function  quickly  demists  and  de -
ices  the  windscreen,  the  rear  screen, 
the  front  side  windows,  and  the  door 
mirrors (depending on the vehicle). The 
air  conditioning  and  rear  screen  de -ic -

Press  button 7  to  stop  the  heated  rear 
screen operating, and the integrated in-
dicator goes out.
You  can  change  the  ventilation  speed 
by pressing button  11.
To exit this function , press:
–  button 8 again;
–  one of either button 2, 3 or 4.
Adjusting the distribution 
of air in the passenger 
compartment
There are seven air distribution options. 
Press  switch  6   to  scroll  through  them. 
The arrows located in area a on the dis-
play 12 combine to show you the distri-
bution selected:
§The air flow is directed towards 
the outlet located on the top of 
the  dashboard  (position  which  allows 
the greatest distribution of ventilation).
„the air flow is directed towards 
the  dashboard  air  vents  (posi-
tion  which  allows  the  passenger  com -
partment  to  be  heated  or  cooled  as 
quickly as possible).
ƒthe  air  flow  is  directed  mainly 
towards the footwells.
‚the air flow is directed towards 
the  side  window  and  wind -
screen  demisting  vents  (position  which 
prevents condensation forming).
In this situation, the distribution of air in 
the  passenger  compartment,  which  is 
no  longer  automatically  controlled,  ap -
pears on the display.
Rear screen de-icing/
demisting
Press  button  7 :  the  integrated  indica -
tor  light  comes  on.  This  function  per -
mits rapid demisting/de-icing of the rear 
screen and de-icing of the door mirrors 
(on equipped vehicles).
To  exit  this  function,   press  button 7

Air recirculation
This  function  is  controlled  automati -
cally, but it can also be activated manu-
ally.
Automatic operation
Your system is fitted with a sensor which 
measures  the  air  on  a  quality  index.  it 
may therefore decide to activate air re-
circulation,  in this case the integrated 
indicator does not come on .Note:
– 
during recirculation, air is taken from 
the  passenger  compartment  and 
is  recycled,  with  no  air  being  taken 
from outside the vehicle;
–  air  recirculation  allows  the  external 
atmosphere to be cut off (when driv-
ing in polluted areas, etc.).
Manual use
Pressing  button  9   allows  air  recircula -
tion  to  be  activated,  in  this  case,  the 
integrated indicator comes on ;
Prolonged use of this position may lead 
to  odours,  caused  by  non-renewal  of 
air,  and  the  formation  of  condensation 
on the windows.
We therefore advise you to return to au-
tomatic  mode  as  soon  as  the  air  recir-
culation  function  is  no  longer  required, 
by pressing button  9 again.
9
The  demisting/de-icing  will  still  take 
priority over the air recirculation.
In  some  situations  (high  humidity, 
etc.) air recirculation is not activated 
automatically,  to  ensure  visibility 
remains  the  priority  (ventilation  is 
maintained  using  air  from  the  out -
side).
In automatic mode (AUTO lit on the 
display),  all  heating  and  air  condi -
tioning  functions  are  controlled  by 
the system.
When  you  modify  certain  functions, 
AUTO  goes  out.  Only  the  modified 
function  stops  being  controlled  by 
the system.
