MANUAL AIR CONDITIONING

The air conditioning system operates

only with the engine running.

 Turn the dial to select a

position between blue

(cold) and red (hot) so as

to adjust the temperature

to your requirements.

1. Temperature adjustment

This dial is used to increase or

decrease the speed of the air

booster fan.

2. Air fl ow adjustment

3. Air distribution adjustment

Windscreen and side windows.

 If you place the air fl ow con-

trol in position 0 , the system

is deactivated. However, a

slight fl ow of air, due to the

movement of the vehicle,

can still be felt.

Windscreen, side windows

and footwells.

Footwells.

Central and side vents.

The air distribution can be

adapted by placing the dial in

an intermediate position.

 Turn the dial from position 1 to po-

sition 5 to obtain a comfortable air

fl ow.

This dial is used to arrange the distri-

bution of air in the passenger compart-

ment by combining several air outlets.

Avoid driving too long with the

ventilation off (risk of misting and

deterioration of air quality).

C O M F O R T

4. Air intake / Air recirculation
The intake of exterior air prevents the

formation of mist on the windscreen

and side windows.

5. Air conditioning On / Off

The air conditioning is de-

signed to operate effectively

in all seasons, with the win-

dows closed.

It enables you to:
-

lower the temperature, in summer,

- increase the effectiveness of the

demisting in winter, above 3 °C.

Switching on
 Press the "A/C" button, the button's

indicator lamp comes on.

Switching off
 Press the "A/C" button again, the

button's indicator lamp goes off.

Switching off may affect comfort levels

(humidity, condensation).

The recirculation of interior air isolates

the passenger compartment from exte-

rior odours and smoke.

 Press the button to recir-

culate the interior air. The

indicator lamp comes on

to confi rm this.

 Press the button again to permit the

intake of exterior air. The indicator

lamp goes off to confi rm this.

This function allows hot or cold

air to be delivered selectively

and more quickly.

Return to exterior air intake as soon as

possible to prevent deterioration of the

the air quality and the formation of mist.

The air conditioning does not

operate when the air fl ow adjust-

ment control 2 is in position " 0 ".
To obtain cooled air more quick-

ly, you can use recirculation of

interior air for a few moments.

Then return to fresh air intake.

DUAL-ZONE DIGITAL AIR CONDITIONING

Automatic operation

We recommend the use of

one of the three AUTO modes

available: they provide opti-

mised regulation of the tem-

perature in the passenger

compartment according to the comfort

value that you have chosen.
These three modes automatically ad-

just the air fl ow, according to the de-

sired setting, while also maintaining the

desired comfort value.

 Press the

"AUTO" button repeat-

edly:

- a

fi rst indicator lamp comes on; the

"light" setting mode is selected,

- a second indicator lamp comes

on; the "medium" setting mode is

selected,

- a third indicator lamp comes on;

the "intense" mode setting is se-

lected.

The air conditioning system operates when the engine is running.

When the engine is cold, the air

fl ow will reach its optimum level

progressively, taking account

of the weather and the desired

comfort level so as to avoid too

great a distribution of cold air.
On entering the vehicle, if the in-

terior temperature is much colder

or warmer than the comfort val-

ue, there is no need to change

the value displayed in order to

obtain the comfort required. The

system corrects the difference in

temperature automatically and

as quickly as possible.

1. Automatic comfort programme

This system is designed to operate ef-

fectively in all seasons, with the win-

dows closed.

C O M F O R T

For maximum cooling or heating

of the passenger compartment,

it is possible to exceed the mini-

mum value 14 or the maximum

value 28.
 Turn control 2 or 3 to the left

until

"LO" is displayed or

to the right until "HI" is dis-

played.

See "Front demisting - defrosting".

4. Automatic visibility programme

Manual operation

If you wish, you can make a different

choice from that offered by the system

by changing a setting. The the "AUTO"

indicator lamps go off; the other func-

tions will still be controlled automati-

cally.
 Pressing the "AUTO" button returns

the system to completely automatic

operation.

2. Driver's side adjustment

The driver and front pas-

senger can each adjust the

temperature to their require-

ments.

 Turn control 2 or 3 to the left or to

the right respectively to decrease or

increase this value.

A setting around the value 21 provides

optimum comfort. However, depend-

ing on your requirements, a setting be-

tween 18 and 24 is normal.
You are advised to avoid a left / right

setting difference of more than 3.

3. Passenger's side adjustment

The value indicated on the display cor-

responds to a level of comfort and not

to a temperature in degrees Celsius or

Fahrenheit.

With Stop & Start, when dem-

isting has been activated, the

STOP mode is not available.

function is available.

Pressing the REST button activates

the ventilation for a few minutes.

Activation of the function is con-

fi rmed by the display of two dashes

in the control screens and four air

fl ow level indicator lamps.

The function can be deactivated and

reactivated if the control screens

are on.

The screens go off at the end of this

period.

Even with the engine is off,

you can operate the ventila-

tion for a few minutes.
For example, while you are

away from the vehicle, the

passengers can still enjoy some air cir-

culation without having the engine run-

ning.
This function is available after switching

on the ignition, as well as after stopping

the engine.
The period that the function is available

depends on the state of charge of the

battery.
You can activate the "REST" func-

tion while the air conditioning control

screens are on.

7. Air fl ow adjustment

 Turn this control to the left

to decrease the air fl ow or

to the right to increase the

air fl ow.

The air fl ow indicator lamps, between

the two fans, come on progressively in

relation to the value requested.

5. Air conditioning On / Off

 Press this button to switch

off the air conditioning.

Switching the system off could result in

discomfort (humidity, condensation).
 Press this button again to return to

automatic operation of the air con-

ditioning. The indicator lamp on the

"A/C" button comes on.

 Press one or more but-

tons to direct the air fl ow

towards:

6. Air distribution adjustment

- the windscreen and side windows

(demisting or defrosting),

- the outer and centre air vents,
- the footwells.

You can combine the three orientations

to obtain the desired air distribution.

8. Air intake / Air recirculation

 Press this button for recir-

culation of the interior air.

The indicator lamp in the

button comes on.

Air recirculation enables the passenger

compartment to be isolated from exte-

rior odours and smoke.
 As soon as possible, press this but-

ton again to permit the intake of out-

side air and prevent the formation of

condensation. The indicator lamp in

the button goes off.
