Air conditioning controls
Button E switches the air conditioning
on or off.
The system cannot be switched on if
control C is set to 0.
Using the air conditioning system ena-
bles you to:
– lower the internal passenger com -
partment temperature, especially in
hot weather, when driving in traffic or
when the vehicle has been parked in
the sun;
– reduce the humidity of the air blown
into the passenger compartment (re-
moval of condensation).
Fuel consumption increases when the
air conditioning system is being used
(switch it off when it is not required). Note: The air conditioning may be used
in all conditions but does not operate
when the external temperature is low.
–
Button E not activated (indicator
integrated into the button not illu -
minated).
The air conditioning is not operating.
The heating and ventilation controls
are the same as a vehicle without air
conditioning.
– Button E activated (indicator in -
tegrated into the button illumi -
nated).

In very hot weather or when 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.
Use the passenger compartment isola -
tion function to lower the temperature
as quickly as possible to the required
comfort level. Switch off the air recircu-
lation function once a comfortable level
has been reached. When the air conditioning system is op-
erating, all windows must be closed for
maximum efficiency.
If there is an operating fault, contact an
approved dealer.
If no cold air is produced
Check that the controls are set correctly
and that the fuses are sound. If they are
not, switch off the heating and air con-
ditioning system (indicator integrated
into button E) and contact an approved
dealer.
Adjusting the air temperature.
Move control
F to obtain the desired
temperature. The further the control is
in the red, the more the temperature will
be increased.
Do not open the refrigerant
fluid circuit. The fluid may
damage eyes or skin.
