value requested.
Recirculation of the interior air
The intake of exterior air prevents the formation
of condensation on the windscreen and side
windows.
The recirculation of interior air isolates the
passenger compartment from exterior odours
and smoke.
This allows hot or cold air to be delivered
quickly when required.

interior air; the symbol appears
or its indicator lamp comes on
(depending on version).
F

P
ress this button again to allow
exterior air to enter; the symbol
disappears or its indicator lamp
goes off (depending on the
version you have).
Avoid prolonged use of air recirculation –
Risk of condensation and deterioration of
air quality!

Advice
In order for these systems to be fully effective,
follow the operation and maintenance
guidelines below:
F
T
o ensure that the air is distributed evenly,
keep the external air intake grilles at the
base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the
vents, the air outlets and the air extractor
located in the rear free from obstructions.
F
D

o not cover the sunshine sensor, located
at the top of the windscreen; 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
T

o prevent misting or deteriorating air
quality inside the passenger compartment,
you should not deactivate the system for
too long and avoid extended operation of
the air recycling system when driving.
F
E

nsure that the passenger compartment
filter is in good condition and have the
filter elements replaced regularly.
We 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). 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 per fectly
normal.
Stop & Star t
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 & Star t ,
refer to the corresponding section.
F T
o ensure correct operation of the air
conditioning system, you are also advised
to have it checked regularly according
to the Maintenance and Warranty Guide
recommendations.
F
I

f the system does not produce cold air,
switch it off and contact a CITROËN 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.
Vents
To close the vent, move the control outwards.
You may feel slight resistance.

The maximum heating period is about
45 minutes depending on the climatic
conditions.
The programmable heating system is
supplied by the vehicle's fuel tank.
Before use, ensure that there is enough
fuel in the tank.
If the tank is on reser ve, it is
recommended that the system is not used.
The ventilation is activated provided that
the battery is sufficiently charged.
The heating is activated provided that:
-

t
he battery is sufficiently charged,
-

t
he fuel level is adequate,
-

t
he engine has been started since the
previous heating cycle. Always switch off the programmable
heating when refuelling to avoid any risk of
fire or explosion.
To avoid the risks of poisoning or
asphyxia, the programmable heating must
not be used, even for short periods, in a
closed environment such as a garage or
workshop which is not equipped with an
exhaust gas extraction system.
Do not park the vehicle on a flammable
sur face (dry grass, dead leaves, paper,
etc.). Risk of fire!
Glazed sur faces such as the rear screen
or windscreen can become very hot in
places.
Take care not to place objects in contact
with these sur faces, nor touch them with
your hands or any other part of your body.
Do not throw the remote control
batteries away, they contain metals
which are harmful to the environment.
