row passengers can also get out after
having folded the backrest of the second row
seats using strap C.
Do not let children operate the seats
unsupervised.
Third row seats
The two third row seats are stored in a retracted
position in the bottom of the boot. Each one is
covered with rigid concertina panels, secured to
the vehicle.
Do not let children operate the seats
unsupervised.
Each concertina panel can support a
maximum load of 100
kg with the third
row seats folded away.
With the third row seats removed and the
removable concertina panels supports
installed, the maximum load is limited to
50
kg.
When there is a seat at the back of the boot, the
removable support is fixed against the front wall
of its housing.
If the seat is removed from the back of the boot
for extra storage space, the removable support
must be installed on the two lugs on the central
wall.
Folding the concertina
panels
► Pull one of the straps; the 3 parts of the
corresponding panel fold into concertina form.
When the 3
rd row seats are straightened, these
folded concertina panels can be left:
–
either flat behind the seats,
–
or in the vertical position,
so allowing the seat well to be used for storage.
Positioning the seats
These operations are carried out from the boot
sill.
► Remove the load space cover roller .
► Straighten the continuity panels of the 2nd row
seats.
►
Fold back the concertina panels and
straighten them vertically
.
►
Pull the black strap E
, located behind the
backrest.
The backrest tilts backwards bringing the seat
cushion with it; the seat locks in the open
position.

The load space cover roller can be stored behind
the backrests of the 3rd row seats.
For more information on the Interior fittings,
and in particular the load space cover roller, refer
to the corresponding section.
Storing the seats
► Straighten the continuity panels of the 2nd row
seats.
►
Put the head restraints in the low position.
►
Check that the seat belts in the 3rd row are
properly stored along the side trims without
being folded or twisted.
►
Pull red strap
F, located at the bottom of the
backrest.
The seat is unlocked.
►
Push the backrest slightly forwards.
The backrest tilts and folds back on the cushion;
the folded seat is stored at the back of its
storage area.
► Put the concertina panels back above the
folded seats.
Before doing anything to the 3rd row
seats, straighten the continuity panels of
the 2
nd row seats.
Do not try to fold back a seat in the 3rd row
without having opened it until the backrest is
fully locked.
Do not leave anything on or underneath the
3
rd row seats when they are being folded.
Do not guide strap F when storing the seat -
your fingers may get jammed!
Removing the seats
Removing the right-hand seat first is
recommended in order to facilitate access to the
left-hand seat unlocking control.
The seat must be in the folded-away position.
These operations must be performed from the
boot sill.
►
Fold back the concertina panel.
► Lift the yellow lever G , located on the right-
hand side, as far upwards as possible to unlock
the seat.
► While keeping the yellow lever held at the
top, raise the rear part of the seat using the red
strap
F.
► Once the rear part of the seat has been
raised, take hold of each side of the seat
cushion, at the plastic covers, then bring the seat
towards you, keeping it at the same angle.
Repositioning the seats
These operations must be performed from the
boot sill.
As long as the seat is not in the correct position, it must be held with both hands
by the sides, keeping it folded.
► Check in advance that the seat storage well
is empty and that the removable support is
properly secured against the front wall.

Heating and Ventilation
Air intake
The air circulating in the passenger compartment
is filtered and originates either from the
exterior, via the grille located at the base of the
windscreen, or from the inside in air recirculation
mode.
Controls
Depending on version, the controls are
accessible in the "Air conditioning" touch
screen menu or are grouped together in the
control panel on the centre console.
Air distribution
1. Windscreen demisting/defrosting vents
2. Front side window demisting/defrosting vents
3. Adjustable and closable side air vents
4. Adjustable and closable central air vents
5. Air outlets to the front footwells
6. Air outlets to the rear footwells
7. Adjustable and closable air vents, with blower
(depending on version)
Advice
Using the ventilation and air
conditioning system
►
T
o ensure that 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 in the boot
free from obstructions.
►
Do not cover the sunshine sensor located
on the dashboard; this sensor is used to
regulate the automatic air conditioning
system.
►
Operate the air conditioning system for at
least 5 to 10 minutes once or twice a month to
keep it in perfect working order
.
►
If 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, enhancing the towing capacity.
Avoid driving for too long with the ventilation off or with prolonged operation
of interior air recirculation. Risk of misting and
deterioration of the air quality!
If the interior temperature is very high
after the vehicle has stood for a long
time in the sunshine, air 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.
Condensation created by the air
conditioning results in a discharge of
water underneath the vehicle. This is perfectly
normal.
Servicing the ventilation and air
conditioning system
► Ensure that the passenger compartment
filter is in good condition and have the filter
elements replaced regularly.
We recommend using a composite passenger
compartment filter. Thanks to its special active
additive, this type of filter helps to purify the
air breathed by the occupants and keep the
passenger compartment clean (by reducing
allergic symptoms, unpleasant odours and
greasy deposits).
► To ensure correct operation of the
air conditioning system, have it checked
according to the recommendations in the
Maintenance and Warranty Guide.
Stop & Start
The heating and air conditioning systems
only operate when the engine is running.
Temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start
system to maintain a comfortable temperature
in the passenger compartment.
For more information on the Stop & Start,
refer to the corresponding section.
Manual air conditioning
The air conditioning system only operates with
the engine running.
