EASE OF USE and COMFORT
VENTILATION
AIR INTAKE
The air circulating in the passenger compartment is fi ltered and
originates either from the outside via the grille located at the base of\

the windscreen or from the inside in air recirculation mode.
AIR FLOW PATHS
The incoming air follows various routes depending on the controls
selected by the driver:
- direct arrival in the passenger compartment (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 compartment combining several air vents.
The air fl ow control enables you to increase or reduce the speed of the
ventilation blower.
CONTROL PANEL
The controls of this system are grouped together on control panel A
on the centre console. The functions offered are:
- the level of comfort required,
- air fl ow,
- air distribution,
- demisting/defrosting,
- manual or digital air conditioning controls.
AIR DIFFUSION
1. Windscreen demisting/defrosting vents.
2. Front side window demisting/defrosting vents.
3. Side adjustable air vents.
4. Central adjustable air vents.

EASE OF USE and COMFORT
DUAL-ZONE DIGITAL
AIR CONDITIONING
The air conditioning only operates when the engine is running.
AUTOMATIC OPERATION
1. Automatic comfort programme
 Press the "AUTO" button. The indicator lamp in the
button comes on.
We recommend the use of this mode: it permits automatic and
optimised adjustment of all of the functions, passenger compartment
temperature, air fl ow, air distribution and air recirculation, in accordance
with the comfort value that you have chosen.
This system is designed to operate effectively in all seasons, with the
windows closed.
2. Driver's side adjustment
When the engine is cold, to prevent too great a distribution of cold
air, the air fl ow will reach its optimum level gradually.
In cold weather, it favours the distribution of warm air to the
windscreen, side windows and footwells only.
3. Passenger's side adjustment
The driver and front passenger can each adjust the
temperature to their requirements.
The value indicated on the display corresponds to a level
of comfort and not to a temperature in degrees Celsius or
Fahrenheit.
 Turn control 2 or 3 to the left or to the right respectively to decrease
or increase this value.
A setting around the value 21 provides optimum comfort. However,
depending on your requirements, a setting between 18 and 24 is
normal.
You are advised to avoid a left / right setting difference of more than 3.
On entering the vehicle, if the interior temperature is much colder
or warmer than the comfort value, there is no need to change
the value displayed in order to obtain the comfort required. The
system corrects the difference in temperature automatically and
as quickly as possible.

ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS
Children at the front
The legislation on carrying children on a front passenger seat is
specifi c to each country. Refer to the legislation in force in your
country.
Deactivate the passenger airbag when a "rearward facing" child seat
is installed on the front seat. Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag were to infl ate.
The incorrect installation of a child seat in a vehicle compromises
the child's protection in the event of an accident.
When installing a child seat using the seat belt, ensure that the
seat belt is tightened correctly on the child seat and that it secures
the child seat fi rmly on the vehicle's seat.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the child seat harnesses
keeping the slack in relation to the child's body
to a minimum ,
even for short journeys.
For optimum installation of the "forward facing" child seat, ensure
that the back of the child seat is as close as possible to the
backrest of the vehicle's seat, even in contact if possible.
Installation of a booster seat
The chest part of the seat belt must be positioned on the child's
shoulder without touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt passes correctly over the
child's thighs.
PEUGEOT recommends the use of a booster seat which has a back,
fi tted with a seat belt guide at shoulder level.
As a safety precaution, do not leave:
- one or more children alone and unsupervised in a vehicle,
- a child or an animal in a vehicle which is exposed to the sun, with the windows closed,
- the keys within reach of children inside the vehicle.
