AuT oMATIC ClIMATE CoNTRol (3/9)
Ambient temperature:
(automatic mode) (continued)
operation
To reach and keep the chosen comfort
level and to maintain good visibility, the
system controls:
– ventilation speed;
– air distribution;
– air recirculation management;
– air conditioning start/stop;
– air temperature.
The displayed temperature values
show a comfort level.
When the vehicle is started in cold
or hot weather, increasing or de -
creasing the value displayed does
not mean that the temperature is
reached more quickly. Whatever the
indicated temperature may be, the
system optimises the increase or
decrease in temperature (the venti-
lation system does not start instantly
at maximum speed: it gradually in -
creases until the engine tempera -
ture is sufficient, which may take
from a few seconds to several min-
utes).
Generally speaking, unless there is
a particular reason not to, the dash-
board air vents should remain open.

Varying the ventilation speed
In automatic mode, the system uses
the most suitable amount of air to reach
and maintain the desired comfort level.
Automatic mode is switched off by
pressing buttons 9 and 11.
These buttons allow you to increase or
decrease ventilation speed.
Switching air conditioning on
or off
In automatic mode, the system switches
the air conditioning system on or off,
depending on the climate conditions.
Exit automatic mode by pressing
button 3 : the AUTO warning light on
display 5 goes out.
Button 3 activates (display warning
light comes on) or stops (warning light
goes out) the air conditioning function. Note:
the Clear View function auto -
matically activates the air condition -
ing system (indicator light on). Press
button 6 to return to automatic mode.
Do not open the refrigerant
fluid circuit. The fluid may
damage eyes or skin.
In automatic mode, in cold weather,
the ventilation will not start imme -
diately at maximum power but will
increase progressively until the
engine temperature is warm enough
to heat the passenger compartment
air. This may take from a few sec -
onds to several minutes.

Air conditioning: information and advice on use
AIR CoNDITIoNINg: information and advice on use
Fuel consumption
It is normal to notice an increase
in fuel consumption (especially in
towns) when the air conditioning is
operating. For vehicles fitted with
manual air conditioning, switch off
the system when it is not required.
In order to minimise consump -
tion and help to protect the en -
vironment, it is recommended to
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.
Maintenance
Refer to the Maintenance Document
for your vehicle for the inspection
frequency.
operating faults
As a general rule, contact your ap-
proved Dealer in the event of an op-
erating fault:
– reduction in de-icing, demist -
ing or air conditioning per -
formance. This may be caused
by the passenger compartment
filter cartridge becoming clogged;
– no cold air is being produced.
Check that the controls are set
correctly and that the fuses are
sound. Otherwise, switch off the
system.
Note
Presence of water under the ve -
hicle. After prolonged use of the air
conditioning system, it is normal for
water to be present under the vehi-
cle. This is caused by condensation.
Do not open the refriger -
ant fluid circuit. The fluid
may damage eyes or skin.

Electric windows
ElECTRIC WINDoWS
With the ignition on:
– Press the switch for the window
concerned to lower it to the desired
height;
– lift the switch for the window con -
cerned to raise it to the desired
height.
From the driver’s seat

seat
Press switch 3.
Driver’s responsibility
Never leave your vehicle with the key inside and never leave a child (or
a pet) unsupervised, even for a short while. The reason for this is that
the child may endanger himself or others by starting the engine and acti-
vating equipment such as the window winders or the sunroof. If a body part gets
trapped, reverse the direction of travel of the window as soon as possible by
pressing the relevant switch.
Risk of serious injury.
