Adjusting the programming

This function enables the electric net-

work (and the not the traction battery)

to be used under certain conditions, in

order to obtain a comfortable tempera-

ture prior to using the vehicle.
It triggers the heating in cold weather

and the air conditioning in warm

weather.

Operating conditions
– The ignition must be switched off;
– the battery must be charged more

than 90% for the function to be trig-

gered;

– the vehicle has to be plugged into

the mains;

and

– control 1 must be in position

ṗ

at A to program the air condition-

ing or at B to program the heating or

ventilation.

It is recommended to position con-

trol 3 in the air recirculation position

and air distribution control 2 in po-

sition:

–

in cold weather;

–

in high temperatures.

These settings make it possible to

reach a comfortable temperature in

the passenger compartment.

Note: depending on the power of the

charging terminal, a slight reduction in

the charge level is possible when the

function is activated.

ADDITIONAL HEATING

(1/2)

Depending on the vehicle, the addi-

tional heating is designed to heat the

passenger compartment. Powered

by a dedicated fuel tank (please see

“Additional heating tank” in Section 1),

this increases the comfort level without

reducing vehicle range.
Switching on this additional heating de-

activates other heating methods and

the air-conditioning.

When the fuel reaches the minimum

level, a warning light will come on

on the instrument panel. After a few

minutes of operation, a message on

the instrument panel will tell you that

the additional heating is switched

off.

3.11

ADDITIONAL HEATING

(2/2)

Operating fault
If the additional heating does not switch

on:
– start the vehicle;
– switch on the heating by pressing

switch 4;

–  wait for 5 minutes;
–  turn off the heater;
–  switch off your vehicle ignition;
–  restart the operation 4 or 5 times.
If the additional heating still fails to op-

erate, please contact an authorised

dealer.

Operating principle

With the engine running, press switch 4.
The operation cuts out:
– when the ignition is switched off;
– after a few minutes, when the mini-

mum fuel level has been reached.

With the engine running,

when you open the driv-

er’s door, a message will

appear on the instrument

panel along with a beep to tell you

to switch off the additional heating.

Warnings concerning the

use of additional heating
– Do not operate the ad-

ditional heating in an en-

closed location; exhaust fumes

are poisonous.

– Do not park the vehicle or oper-

ate the additional heating in lo-

cations where flammable mate-

rial or substances such as grass

or leaves can come into contact

with a hot exhaust system.

– Do not operate the additional

heating when filling the fuel tank.

3.12

AIR CONDITIONING: information and operating instructions

(1/2)

Do not open the refriger-

ant fluid circuit. The fluid

may damage eyes or skin.

Operating faults

As a general rule, contact your ap-

proved Dealer in the event of an oper-

ating fault.

– Reduction in de-icing, demisting

or air conditioning performance.

This may be caused by the passen-

ger compartment filter cartridge be-

coming clogged.

– No cold air is being produced.

Check that the controls are set cor-

rectly and that the fuses are sound.

Otherwise, switch off the system.

Range

It is normal to notice an increase in

energy usage when the air conditioning

is operating.

Switch off the system when it is not re-

quired.
Advice for reducing consumption

and helping to preserve the environ-

ment
Drive with the air vents on and the win-

dows closed.

If the vehicle has been parked in the

sun, open the doors for a few moments

to let the hot air escape before starting

the engine.

Maintenance

Refer to the Maintenance Document

for your vehicle for the inspection fre-

quency.

Below approximately 10°C, with the

engine off it is normal to notice cold

air enter the passenger compart-

ment via the vents when ventilation

has not stopped (refer to the infor-

mation on “Heating, air condition-

ing” in section 3). It is recommended

to position the ventilation control at

0 in case of brief stops.

Presence of water under the

vehicle.

After prolonged use of the air condi-

tioning system, it is normal for water

to be present under the vehicle. This is

caused by condensation.

Noise

Each time the ignition is switched off,

the ventilation will be switched off after

about ten seconds.

Vehicles equipped with

mode ECO
Once activated, ECO mode may

reduce air conditioning perform-

ance. Please refer to the informa-

tion on “Driving advice, Eco-driving”

in Section 2.

Use the air conditioning system reg-

ularly, even in cold weather, running

it at least once a month for approxi-

mately 5 minutes.

3.13

To fold down the seatback

Before moving the bench seat, make

sure the front seats are pushed forward

enough, that the rear seat belts are un-

fastened and that nothing will obstruct

the manoeuvre.
Lower the rear headrests to storage po-

sition.
Pull lever 1 of the seatback you wish to

fold down (on the right or left-hand side

of the bench seat), and bring the seat-

back down.

REAR BENCH SEAT: functions

(1/2)

For safety reasons, carry

out any adjustments when

the vehicle is not being

driven.

When moving the rear

bench seat, make sure

the bench seat anchor-

age points are clean (they

should be free from grit, cloths etc.).

Before folding down any rear seat,

fasten the seat belt buckle of the seat

concerned into its corresponding catch.
This will prevent the seat belt becoming

trapped when the seat is returned to its

position for use.
In all cases, check that the seat belts

are operating correctly.

The configuration of the

two-seat bench with the

small seatback A pulled

down, does not allow the

central seat to be used as it would

be impossible to buckle the seat belt

(belt buckles inaccessible).
