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.
Heating

Manual air conditioning
The air conditioning system only operates with the engine running.


1. Temperature.
2. Air flow.
3. Air distribution.
4. Interior air recirculation.
5. Air conditioning on/off.
As a safety precaution in case of sharp braking,
we recommend placing heavy objects as far
forwards as possible (i.e. near the cab)K
We recommend using the stowing rings on the
floor to firmly secure the load.
When washing your vehicle, never clean
the inside directly using a water jet.
Warning triangle
As a safety precaution, before leaving your
vehicle to set up and install the triangle, always
switch on the hazard warning lamps and put on
your high visibility vest.
Storage compartment

Heating and Ventilation
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 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, 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).
►

T

o ensure correct operation of the
air conditioning system, have it checked
according to the recommendations in the
Maintenance and Warranty Guide.
