VENTILATION Air treatment
The incoming air follows various routes
depending on the controls selected by
the driver:
- direct arrival in the passenger com-partment (air intake),
- passage through a heating circuit (heating),
- passage through a cooling circuit (air conditioning). The temperature control enables you to
obtain the level of comfort required by
mixing the air of the various circuits.
The air distribution control enables you
to diffuse the air in the passenger com-
partment combining several air vents.
The air fl ow control enables you to in-
crease or reduce the speed of the ven-
tilation blower. Air intake
The air circulating in the passenger
compartment is fi ltered and originates
either from the outside via the grille lo-
cated at the base of the windscreen or
from the inside in air recirculation mode.
Control panel

The air conditioning system does
not contain chlorine and does not
present any danger to the ozone
layer. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR VENTILATION AND AIR
CONDITIONING
In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and main-
tenance guidelines below:
To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterio\
r air intake grilles located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the v\
ents
and the air outlets, as well as the air extractor located in the boot.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for regulation of the air conditioning system.
Operate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to 10 minutes, once o\
r twice a month to keep it in perfect working order.
Ensure that the passenger compartment fi lter is in good condition and have the fi lter elements replaced regularly.
We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment fi lter. Thanks to its special active additive, it contributes to the purifi cation of
the air breathed by the occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger
compartment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy de-
posits).
To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also \
advised to have it checked regularly as recommended in the warranty and \
maintenance record.
If the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures,
switching off the air conditioning increases the available engine power and so
improves the towing ability.
If after an extended stop in sunshine, the interior temperature is very high, fi rst
ventilate the passenger compartment for a few moments.
Put the air fl ow control at a setting high enough to quickly change the air in the
passenger compartment.
The condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge \
of
water under the vehicle which is perfectly normal.

4. Air intake/Air recirculation
The intake of exterior air prevents the
formation of mist on the windscreen and
side windows.
The recirculation of interior air prevents
exterior odours and smoke from enter-
ing the passenger compartment.
Return to exterior air intake mode as
soon as possible to avoid deterioration
of the air quality and prevent misting. Electric control panel
Demisting/defrosting
To quickly demist or defrost the wind-
screen and side windows:
place the air intake control
4 in the
"Exterior air intake" position,
place the air distribution dial 3 in the
"Windscreen" position,
place the temperature dial 1 and the
air fl ow dial 2 in the maximum posi-
tion,
close the central vents,
switch on the air conditioning by pressing the "A/C" button.
If you place the air fl ow control
in position 0 (deactivation of the
system), the temperature is no
longer maintained at a comfort-
able level. However, a slight
fl ow of air, due to the movement
of the vehicle, can still be felt. 3. Air distribution adjustment
Move the manual control to the right to the "Interior air recirculation" posi-
tion.
Move the manual control to the left to return to the "Exterior air intake"
position.
Press the button to recircu-late the interior air. This is
displayed by lighting of the
indicator lamp.
Press the button again to permit the intake of exterior air. This is con-
fi rmed by the indicator lamp going
off.

system control panel. REAR SCREEN DEMIST -
DEFROST Switch off the demisting/
defrosting of the rear screen
and door mirrors as soon as
appropriate as lower current
consumption results in reduced
fuel consumption.
If the engine is switched off before the
demisting/defrosting is switched off auto-
matically, demisting/defrosting will resume
next time the engine is switched on.
Switching on
The rear screen demisting/defrosting
can only operate when the engine is
running.
Press this button to demist/defrost the rear screen and (depending on
version) the door mirrors. The indica-
tor lamp associated with the button
comes on.
Switching off
The demisting/defrosting switches off
automatically to prevent an excessive
consumption of current.
It is possible to stop the demisting/de-frosting operation before it is switched
off automatically by pressing the but-
ton again. The indicator lamp associ-
ated with the button switches off.
It enables you to:
- lower the temperature, in summer,
- increase the effectiveness of the de-
misting, in winter above 0 °C.
Switching on
Press the "A/C" button, the associ-
ated indicator lamp comes on.
The air conditioning does not ope-
rate when the air fl ow adjustment
dial 2 is in position "0".

When the engine is cold, to prevent
too great a distribution of cold air,
the air fl ow will only reach its opti-
mum level gradually.
In cold weather, it favours the distri-
bution of warm air to the windscreen,
the side windows and the footwells
only. On entering the vehicle, if the in-
terior temperature is much colder
or warmer than the comfort value,
there is no need to alter the value
displayed in order to obtain the re-
quired level of comfort. The system
corrects the temperature differ-
ence automatically and as quickly
as possible.
The air conditioning can only operate
with the engine running.
The driver and front passen-
ger can each set the tempera-
ture to suit their requirements. Turn dial
2 or 3 to the left to reduce
the value or to the right to increase it.
A setting around 21 enables you to
obtain an optimum level of comfort.
Depending on your requirements, a set-
ting between 18 and 24 is usual.
In addition, it is recommended that you
avoid a left/right setting difference of
more than 3.
4. Automatic visibility programme The automatic comfort pro-
gramme may not be suffi cient
to quickly demist or defrost
the windscreen and side win-
dows (humidity, several pas-
sengers, ice...).
In this case, select the automatic visibility programme.
The system automatically controls the
air conditioning, the air fl ow and the air
intake and provides optimum distribu-
tion of the ventilation to the windscreen
