We recommend use of the automatic regulation 
of the air conditioning.
It permits automatic and optimised control 
of all of the following functions: air flow, 
temperature in the passenger compartment 
and air distribution, by means of various 
sensors (ambient temperature, sunshine). 
This eliminates any need for you to change 
your settings other than the temperature value 
displayed.
F Take care not to cover the sunshine 
sensor  A.
If you select the automatic mode   
(by pressing the "AUTO" control) and leave 
all of the vents open, optimum comfort will be 
maintained and humidity and condensation will 
be removed regardless of the exterior climatic 
conditions.
The temperature in the passenger compartment 
can only be lower than the ambient temperature 
if the air conditioning is on.
In order to be effective, the air conditioning must 
be used with the windows closed. If the vehicle 
has been parked in the sun for a long period 
and the interior temperature is very high, first 
ventilate the passenger compartment with the 
windows open for a few minutes, then close the 
windows.
Heating, ventilation and air conditioning recommendations
To keep the air conditioning system in 
good working order it is essential that it is 
operated at least once a month.
The air conditioning uses engine power 
during its operation. As a result, the fuel 
consumption of the vehicle increases.
In certain cases of particularly arduous use 
(e.g. towing the maximum load on a steep 
gradient in high temperatures), switching off 
the air conditioning saves engine power and 
improves the towing capacity.
Air inlet
Check that the exterior grille for the air inlet, 
at the bottom of the windscreen, is clean and 
free of dead leaves, snow, etc.
When washing the vehicle using a high 
pressure nozzle, avoid spraying at the air 
inlet. Maximum comfort is obtained by means of 
a good distribution of air in the passenger 
compartment, both in the front and in the rear.
To obtain a uniform distribution of air, take 
care not to block the exterior air intake grille 
located at the base of the windscreen, the 
vents, the air outlets under the front seats and 
the air extractor located behind the flaps in 
the boot.
The front and rear vents are fitted with 
thumbwheels to adjust the air flow and 
direction. We recommend that you leave all of 
the vents open.
Dust filter / Odour filter 
(active carbon)
There is a filter for excluding odours and 
dust.
This filter must be changed in line with the 
vehicle's servicing schedule. (Refer to the 
maintenance and warranty guide).

To the left to reduce the temperature.
The setting required is displayed.
The value indicated in the screen corresponds 
to a level of comfort and not to a temperature in 
degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit, depending on 
the screen configuration.
A setting around the value 21  usually provides 
optimum comfort. However, depending on your 
requirements, a setting between 18 and 24 is 
normal.
The air conditioning system operates with the engine running.
Mono-zone:  this is the overall regulation of the temperature, distribution and flow of air in the passenger 
compartment.
The symbols and messages associated with the digital air conditioning controls appear in the display screen.
On entering the vehicle, the interior 
temperature may be much colder (or 
warmer) than is comfortable. There 
is no need to change the temperature 
displayed to obtain rapidly the level of 
comfort required.
The automatic regulation of the air 
conditioning will use its maximum 
per formance settings to correct the 
temperature difference as quickly as 
possible.
