CONDITIONING
The air conditioning only operates when the engine is running.
AUTOMATIC OPERATION
1. Automatic comfort programme
F 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 	 flow, 	 air 	 distribution 	 and 	 air 	 recirculation, 	 in 	 accordance 	
with the comfort value that you have chosen.
This system is designed to operate ef
fectively 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 	 flow 	 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.
F
 
T
urn 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.
Y
ou 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 dif
ference in temperature automatically and 
as
	
quickly 	 as 	 possible.
