Heating and Ventilation

Air intake

the air circulating in the passenger compartment
is filtered and originates either from the outside via
the grille located at the base of the windscreen or
from the inside in air recirculation mode.

Controls

the incoming air follows various routes
depending on the controls selected by
the driver, the front passenger and rear
passengers, according to the level of
equipment.
the temperature control enables you to obtain
the level of comfort required by mixing the air of
the various circuits.
the air distribution control enables you to
select the air vents used in the passenger
compartment by the combined use of the
associated buttons.
the air flow control enables you to increase or
reduce the speed of the ventilation fan.
these controls are grouped together on control
panel A on the centre console.

1. Windscreen demisting/defrosting vents.
2. Front side window demisting/defrosting

vents.

3. Side adjustable air vents.
4. Central adjustable air vents.

Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning

the air conditioning system does not contain chlorine and does not present any danger to the ozone layer.

In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance guidelines below:
F If the interior temperature remains very high after the vehicle has been parked in the sun for a considerable time, first ventilate the

passenger compartment for a few minutes.

Place the air flow control at a sufficient level to provide an adequate renewal of air in the passenger compartment.

F to obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake grilles located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles,

the vents and the air outlets, as well as the air extractor located in the boot.

F In normal conditions, use the intake of exterior air as prolonged use of the air recirculation may cause misting of the windows and side

windows.

F Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for regulation of the automatic air conditioning system.
F Operate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month to keep it in good working order.
F ensure that the passenger compartment filter is in good condition and have the filter elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks"

section).

We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment filter. thanks to its second special active filter, it contributes to the
purification of the air breathed by the occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compartment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad
odours and greasy deposits).

F the air conditioning uses power from the engine while operating. this results in an increase in the vehicle's fuel consumption.

When towing at or near maximum capacity or on steep slopes in high ambient temperatures, switching off the air conditioning saves engine
power and so improves towing capacity.

Condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of water under the vehicle when stationary, which is perfectly normal.

F to ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to have it checked regularly.
F If the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a PeugeOt dealer or a qualified workshop.
