Ease of use and comfort

► Guide the backrest 3 down to the horizontal
position.
From the boot (SW)

► Pull the backrest release lever 2 towards you.
The backrest 3 folds fully onto the cushion.
Repositioning the backrests
First check that the outer seat belts are
lying vertically flat alongside the backrest
latching rings.


► Straighten the backrest 3 and push it firmly to
latch it into place.
►

Check that the red indicator is no longer
visible in the release grip 1

.
►

Ensure that the outer seat belts were not
trapped during the operation.
Please note: an incorrectly latched
backrest compromises the safety of
passengers in the event of sudden braking or
an accident.
The contents of the boot may be thrown
forwards - risk of serious injury!
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, certain controls
are accessible in the
Climate touch
screen application and/via the control panel on
the centre console.
Air distribution

1. Windscreen demisting/de-icing vents
2. Front side window demisting/de-icing 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

Ease of use and comfort
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
display the system controls page.

Temperature adjustment
The driver and front passenger can each choose
their own temperature setting.
The value indicated corresponds to a level of
comfort and not to a precise temperature.
►

Press one of the buttons
1 (+ or -) or drag
vertically to increase or decrease the value.
It is possible to go beyond the minimum and
maximum values by selecting respectively Low
or High.
It is recommended that you avoid a difference of
more than 3°C in the settings for left and right.
Temperature
synchronisation
The driver side temperature setting is applied to
the passenger side.
►

Press button
6-SYNC to activate/deactivate
the function.
The function is automatically deactivated if the
passenger uses their temperature adjustment
buttons.
Automatic air conditioning
This automatic mode ensures optimum
management of the passenger compartment
temperature, air flow and air distribution, based
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.

Lighting and visibility
Screenwash fluid is sprayed along the length
of the wiper blade. This improves visibility and
reduces screenwash fluid consumption.
With automatic air conditioning, any
action on the screenwash control results
in temporary closure of the air intake to
protect the passenger compartment from any
odour.
To avoid damaging the wiper blades, do not operate the screenwash if the
screenwash reservoir is empty.
Only operate the screenwash if there is no
risk of the fluid freezing on the windscreen
and hindering visibility. During the winter
period, use "very cold climate" rated products.
Never top up with water.
Rear wiper (SW)

► Turn the ring to align the desired symbol with
the marking.
Off
Intermittent wiping
Screenwash-wipe
Reverse
When reverse gear is engaged, the rear wiper
will come into operation automatically if the front
windscreen wipers are operating.
It is configured in the Settings > Vehicle
touch screen application.
In the event of accumulation of snow or
hard frost or if a bicycle carrier is fitted to
a towing system, deactivate the automatic
rear wiper via the Settings
> Vehicle touch
screen application.
Rear screenwash
► Turn the ring as far as it will go and hold it in
position.
The screenwash and the wiper operate for as
long as the ring remains turned.
A final wiping cycle is performed when screen
washing ends.
Special position of the
windscreen wipers
This maintenance position is used while cleaning
or replacing the wiper blades. It can also be
useful, in wintry weather (ice, snow), to release
the wiper blades from the windscreen.
To maintain the effectiveness of the flat wiper blades, it is advisable to:
–

handle them with care.
–


clean them regularly using soapy water
.
–

avoid using them to hold cardboard on the
windscreen.
–


replace them at the first signs of wear
.
Before removing a windscreen wiper blade

Operating the wiper control stalk immediately
after switching off the ignition will place the wiper
blades in a vertical position.
►
Proceed with the desired operation or the
replacement of the wiper blades.
After refitting a windscreen wiper blade
► To return the wiper blades to their initial
position after the operation, switch on the ignition
and operate the wiper control stalk.
