The electrochrome system uses a sensor that
detects the level of exterior brightness and that
coming from the rear of the vehicle, in order to
automatically and gradually switch between day
and night usage.
To ensure optimum visibility while manoeuvring, the mirror automatically
brightens when reverse gear is engaged.
The system is deactivated if the load in the
boot exceeds the height of the load space
cover or if the load space cover has items
placed on it.

3of 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. Its specific active additive
helps protect against polluting gases and bad
smells.
►

T

o ensure correct operation of the
air conditioning system, have it checked
according to the recommendations in the
Manufacturer’s service schedule.
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
system, refer to the corresponding
section.
Rechargeable hybrid vehicles
Intensive use of the air conditioning
reduces the vehicle range in Electric mode.
Ventilation with the ignition on
When the ignition is switched on, the ventilation
system and the air flow 2 and air distribution
3 settings in the passenger compartment are
activated, for a period which depends on the
battery charge.
This function does not include the air
conditioning system.
Dual-zone automatic air
conditioning
This system automatically controls the activation
of the air conditioning system, regulating the
temperature, air flow and air distribution inside
the passenger compartment. This system works with the engine running, but
access to the ventilation and its controls remains
possible with the ignition on.
Press the Climate application button to

on the selected comfort level.
►

Press button
5-AUTO to activate/deactivate
the automatic mode of the air conditioning
system.
The indicator lamp in the button lights up
when the air conditioning system is operating
automatically.
The intensity of the automatic air conditioning
is modulated by choosing one of the following
settings:
–

AUT
O SOFT : provides soft and quiet
operation by limiting air flow.
–

AUT
O NORMAL: offers the best compromise
between a comfortable temperature and quiet
operation (default setting).
–

AUT
O FAST: provides dynamic and efficient
air distribution.
To change the AUTO mode, press button
5-AUTO successively.
To ensure passenger comfort in the rear seats,
favour settings AUTO NORMAL and AUTO
FAST.
In cold weather with the engine cold, the
air flow is increased gradually until the
comfort setting has been reached, in order to
limit the delivery of cold air into the passenger
compartment.
On entering the vehicle, if the interior
temperature is much colder or warmer than
the comfort setting requested, there is no
need to alter the value displayed to more
quickly reach the required level of comfort.
The system automatically corrects the
temperature difference as quickly as possible.
Automatic air conditioning manual settings
It is possible to manually adjust one or more
of these functions, while the system retains
automatic control of the other functions:
–

a temperature pre-conditioning cycle is
programmed. It flashes when temperature pre-
conditioning is in progress.
You can set multiple programmes. Each one is saved in the system.
To optimise the driving range, we recommend
starting a programme while the vehicle is
connected.
The programming can also be carried out from a smartphone via the MYPEUGEOT
