Dual-zone digital air conditioning (Touch screen)
This air conditioning system operates with the engine running, but the ventilation and its controls are available with the ignition on. Operation of the air conditioning and regulation of temperature, air flow and air distribution in the passenger compartment are automatic according to the temperature in the passenger compartment and the temperature setting.
Temperature adjustment
The driver and front passenger can each set the temperature.
Press one of these buttons to increase the value.
The value indicated corresponds to a level of comfort and not to a temperature in degrees Centigrade or Fahrenheit (depending on the units chosen). A setting around 21 provides an optimum level of comfort. Depending on your requirements, a setting between 18 and 24 is normal. In addition, it is recommended that you avoid a difference between the left and right setting of
more than 3.
Press the button for the " Air conditioning " menu to display the controls for the air conditioning system. Press one of these buttons to decrease the value.

Flashing of the dashes indicates a fault with the cruise control. Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Operating fault Exceeding the programmed
speed
Switching off
When the cruise control is switched on, be careful if you maintain the pressure on one of the programmed speed
changing buttons: this may result in a very rapid change in the speed of your vehicle. Do not use the cruise control on slippery roads or in heavy traffic. On a steep descent, the cruise control will not be able to prevent the vehicle from exceeding the programmed speed. On steep climbs or when towing, the programmed speed may not be reached or maintained. The use of mats not approved by PEUGEOT may inter fere with the operation of the cruise control. To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals: - ensure that the mat is positioned c o r r e c t l y, - never fit one mat on top of another.
If the programmed speed is exceeded, the displayed speed flashes. Once the vehicle returns to the programmed speed, the display becomes steady again.
Turn wheel 1 to the "0" position. The display of information related to the cruise control disappears.
