3Additional pre-heater or programmable additional
heating
This is an additional, programmable and
independent system that heats the hot water
loop of the Diesel engine to facilitate starting.
It improves the performance of the defrosting
and demisting and, if fitted to the vehicle, that of
the heated seats.
The passenger compartment’s temperature rises
more quickly.
This system must be programmed to be started
before entering the vehicle.
Automatic additional heating
This is an additional system that starts
automatically when the ignition is switched on. Its
activation depends on the outside temperature
and the temperature inside the vehicle.
It switches off automatically as soon as the
heating is manually switched on.
Supplementary heating
On 2-3 seat versions, it is located under the
driver's seat with air diffusion directed towards
the front.
On 5-9 seat versions, it is
located at the rear. Depending
on the version of the model, the
air diffusion is either direct from
the rear, or comes from the rail
located under each of the two
rows of seats.
► Press this control to activate/
deactivate the heating. The LED lights up
if heating is activated.
When quickly defrosting and demisting, turn off
the control.
Rear heating and/or air
conditioning
If the vehicle is equipped with an additional
air conditioning unit, located at the rear of the
vehicle: the distribution rail located in the roof
and the individualised air vents ensure a perfect
diffusion of cold air.
The hot air diffused from the front air conditioning
unit to the floor is distributed at the height of the
rear passengers' feet in rows 2 and 3.
A hot air vent, located on the left-hand rear
wheel arch, may complement the system for the
rear passengers’ feet in row 3.
Activation/Deactivation
► From the driver's seat, press this
button located on the MODE control panel
to activate the operation of the rear controls. The
indicator lamp comes on.
Pressing again on this button deactivates the
operation of the rear controls. The indicator lamp
goes off.

Delayed starting of the
heating system
The start time can be programmed between 1
minute and 24 hours in advance.
You can memorise up to three different start
times, but only programme a single delayed
start.
To perform a daily start at a fixed time, reprogramme the memorised time each
day.
► Press button 3; the screen comes on.
The - -:- - symbol or the previous memorised
time and the corresponding preset number (1, 2
or 3) are displayed for 10 seconds.
To recall the other preset times, press button 3 several times before the end of
the 10 seconds.
Within 10 seconds, press one of the buttons 1 to
select the desired start time.
The memorisation is confirmed by the
disappearance of the start time, the display of
the preset number (1, 2 or 3) and the lighting of
the screen.
By default, preset times are already
memorised in the system (1 = 06:00, 2 =
16:00, 3 = 22:00). Any change cancels and
replaces the previous preset time.
If the battery is disconnected, the default
preset times will be restored.
Setting the comfort
temperature
► Turn control 1 to select a position between
blue (cold) and red (hot) so as to adjust the
temperature to your requirements.
The OFF control on the "Mono-zone" central control panel switches the
function off.
However, a back-up system will automatically
ventilate the rear circuit, even if the control is
in position 0, to avoid the formation of mist.
Air flow
► Set control 2 to the desired position to
increase or decrease the air flow.
Additional programmable heating
The additional programmable heating gradually
brings the engine to a good temperature to
facilitate its starting.
An built-in clock allows the time of its triggering
to be programmed. The passenger compartment
will warm up faster.
The warming-up of the passenger compartment, de-icing and demisting are
facilitated. The control panel for the programmable
additional heating is located next to the steering
wheel, below the MODE control panel.
