Recommendations for use
If the interior temperature remains very high after a prolonged period parked in the sun, first ventilate the passenger compartment for a few minutes.
For
an even air distribution, make sure that you do not block the outside air inlet grille, the
v
ents, the air passages and the air outlets to the footwells.
Ensure
that the passenger compartment filter, located behind the glove box in the heater
u
nit, is in good condition. Have the filter elements replaced regularly. If you drive in dusty
c
onditions, change them twice as often.
Operate
the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month, to keep it in
p
er fect working order.
In
order to ensure that your air conditioning system continues to operate correctly, you are
a
dvised to have it checked regularly.
If
the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a CITROËN dealer or a
q
ualified
w
orkshop.
The
air conditioning system does not contain chlorine and does not present any danger to
t
he ozone layer.
The
condensation created by the air conditioning results in a flow of water under the vehicle
w
hen stationary which is per fectly normal.
