u

sed with the setting of the fan speed
(from 1 to 4), recirculation enables you
to attain the desired comfort level more
quickly with both hot or cold settings.
This position should only be temporary.

good practice
For maximum cooling or heating of the
passenger compartment, it is possible
to exceed the value 15 by turning until
Lo is displayed or the value 27 by
turning until HI is displayed.
o

n entering the vehicle, the inside
temperature may be much colder (or
warmer) than is comfortable. There is
no advantage in changing the value
displayed in order to quickly reach the
level of comfort required. The system
will use its maximum performance to
reach the comfort value set.

Automatic operation
Auto comfort programme
This is the normal air conditioning
system operating mode. Driver or passenger side comfort
value
The value indicated in the screen
corresponds to a level of comfort and
not a temperature in degrees Celsius
or Fahrenheit.
T urn this control to the left
or to the right to decrease or
increase the value. A setting
around the value 21 provides
optimum comfort. However,
depending on your requirements, a
setting between 18 and 24 is usual.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor
located on the dashboard.
Press this button, the A
uto
symbol is displayed.
The system controls the
distribution, the flow and the
intake of air to guarantee
comfort and a sufficient circulation
of air in the passenger compartment
according to the comfort value set. No
further action on your part is required. Air flow will increase gradually when
the engine is cold, to prevent excessive
distribution of cold air.
For your comfort, the settings are
stored when the ignition is switched off
and are reinstated the next time the
vehicle is started.
The automatic function will no longer
be maintained if you change a setting
manually (A

intake of exterior air.
Pressing this button again switches off
the air conditioning.
The ventilation outlet, located

temperature requested in the
passenger compartment and
regardless of the exterior temperature.
For your comfort, do not deactivate the
system for long periods.

Vents
"Leave them open"
For optimum distribution and diffusion
of hot or cool air in the passenger
compartment, there are adjustable
central and side vents which can
be directed sideways (right or left)
or vertically (up or down). For your
comfort while driving, do not close
them and direct the flow of air towards
the windows instead.
Air vents in the footwells and directed
towards the windscreen complete the
equipment.
Do not block the vents located at the
windscreen or the air extractor located
in the boot.
Dust filter, odour filter
(activated carbon)
This filter traps certain dust and limits
odours.
Ensure that this filter is in good
condition and have all of the filter
elements replaced regularly.
Refer to the "Checks" section of
chapter 7.
Air conditioning
In all seasons, the air conditioning
should only be used with the
windows closed. However, if the
interior temperature remains high
after a prolonged period parked in
the sun, first ventilate the passenger
compartment for a few minutes.

mode as much as
possible as it permits optimised
control of all of the functions: air flow,

temperature, air distribution, air
intake mode or air recirculation in the
passenger compartment.
o

perate the air conditioning system for
5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month,
to keep it in good working order.
If the system does not produce cold air,
do not use it and contact a P
eugeo T
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Automatic mode: visibility
programme
The comfort programme (A

) may
not be sufficient to quickly demist or
defrost the windows (humidity, several
passengers, ice).
In this case, select the visibility
programme. The visibility programme
indicator comes on.
It activates the air conditioning, the air
flow and provides optimum distribution
of the ventilation to the windscreen and
side windows.
It deactivates the air recirculation. It is normal that the condensation
created by the air conditioning system
results in a flow of water which may
form a puddle under the vehicle when
parked.
