Ventilation
Air intake flow
The incoming air follows various paths 
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).

Air distribution
Air intake
The air circulating in the passenger compartment 
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. 
Comfort

2008_en_Chap03_confort_ed01-2016
In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance 
guidelines below:
F 
T
 o obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake grilles 
located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as well 
as the air extractor located in the boot.
F
 
D
 o not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for regulation 
of the air conditioning system.
F
 
O
 perate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month 
to keep it in per fect working order.
F
 
E
 nsure that the passenger compartment filter is in good condition and have the filter 
elements replaced regularly.
 W
e recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment filter. Thanks to its 
special active additive, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by the 
occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compartment (reduction of allergic 
symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).
F
 
T
 o ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to have 
it checked regularly as recommended in the warranty and maintenance record.
F
 
I
 f the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a PEUGEOT dealer or 
a qualified workshop.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures, switching off the 
air conditioning increases the available engine power and so improves the towing ability.
Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning
If after an extended stop in sunshine, 
the interior temperature is very high, first 
ventilate the passenger compartment for 
a few moments.
Put the air flow control at a setting high 
enough to quickly change the air in the 
passenger compartment.
The air conditioning system does not 
contain chlorine and does not present 
any danger to the ozone layer.
The condensation created by the air 
conditioning results in a discharge 
of water under the vehicle which is 
perfectly normal.
Stop & Start
The heating and air conditioning systems only work when the engine is running.
To maintain a comfortable temperature in the passenger compartment, you can temporarily 
deactivate the Stop & Start system.
For more information on Stop & Start, refer to the corresponding section.

If you place the air flow control at 
position 0 (off), the temperature in the 
vehicle will no longer be maintained. 
However, a slight flow of air can still be 
felt due to the movement of the vehicle.

When towing
Distribution of loads
F Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to 
the axle and the nose weight approaches 
the maximum permitted without 
exceeding
 
it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus 
reducing engine performance. Above 
1
  000   metres, the maximum towed load must 
be reduced by 10
  % for every 1   000 metres of 
altitude.
Side wind
F Take into account the increased sensitivity  to side wind.For more information on weights (and 
the towed loads which apply to your 
vehicle) refer to the corresponding 
section.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the 
temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling 
capacity is not dependent on the engine speed.
F
 
T
 o lower the engine speed, reduce your 
speed.
The maximum towed load on a long incline 
depends on the gradient and the ambient 
temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the coolant 
temperature.
F
 
I
 f the warning lamp and the 
STOP  warning lamp come on, 
stop the vehicle and switch off 
the engine as soon as possible.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes, the use of 
engine braking is recommended.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing  vehicle and of the trailer, observing the 
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling on the trailer and the headlamp beam 
height of your vehicle.
For more information on adjusting the 
headlamp beam height, refer to the 
corresponding section.
The rear parking sensors will be 
deactivated automatically if a genuine 
PEUGEOT towbar is used.
