is filtered 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 treatment

depending on the controls selected by the
driver:
-
d
irect arrival in the passenger
compartment (air intake),
-
p

assage through a heating circuit (heating),
-

p
assage 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.

diffuse the air in the passenger compartment
combining several air vents.
The air flow control enables you to increase or
reduce the speed of the ventilation blower.
