MANUAL AIR CONDITIONING
(1/3)
Switching air conditioning on or
off
The air conditioning is switched on (in-
dicator light on) or off (indicator light off)
using the control 3.
The air conditioning system is used
for:
– lowering the temperature inside the
passenger compartment;
– eliminating condensation more
quickly.
Indicators
The following indicators are displayed
on the multimedia screen A:
8 Air temperature.
9 Active mode.
10 Fan speed.
11 Distribution of air in the passenger
compartment.

MANUAL AIR CONDITIONING
(2/3)
Adjusting the air temperature
Turn control 1 to obtain the desired
temperature. The more bars are dis-
played on the multimedia screen, the
higher the temperature.
When the air conditioning system is
used for long periods, it may begin to
feel cold. To increase the temperature,
turn control 1 to the right.
Distribution of air in the passenger
compartment
There are five air distribution options.
Turn control 5 to choose the distribution
option.
The air distribution is displayed on the
multimedia screen.
õ
The air flow is directed to the
windscreen and the front side
window demisting vents.
÷
The air flow is distributed be-
tween all the air vents, the
front side window demisting vents, the
windscreen demisting vents and the
footwells.
ó
The air flow is directed mainly
towards the footwells.
G
The air flow is directed towards
the dashboard air vents, the
front footwells and, depending on the
vehicle, the second row footwells.
J
All the air flow is directed to the
dashboard vents.

Rear screen de-icing/demisting
With the engine running, press the
control 2. The operating tell-tale comes
on.
This function permits rapid demisting/
de-icing of the rear screen and de-icing
of the door mirrors (on equipped vehi-
cles).
To exit this function, press the con-
trol 2 again.
Demisting automatically stops.
3.8
Switching the air recirculation on
Press the control 4: the integrated in-
dicator light in the button comes on.
Under these conditions, air is taken
from the passenger compartment and
is recirculated, with no air being taken
from outside the vehicle. Air recircula-
tion operates as follows:
– isolating the vehicle from the exter-
nal atmosphere (driving in polluted
areas, etc.);
– lowering the passenger compart-
ment temperature as quickly as pos-
sible.

Varying the ventilation speed
You can adjust the fan speed by press-
ing the controls 6 or 7 to increase or
reduce the fan speed.
The system is deactivated (OFF): the
ventilation speed is zero (vehicle sta-
tionary). You can, however, still feel
a slight flow of air when the vehicle is
moving.
Stopping the system
To switch off the system, press the
control 7 several times until the mes-
sage “OFF” appears on the multimedia
screen.
You may, however, feel a slight flow of
air when the vehicle is moving.
Clear View function
Press the control 1: the integrated indi-
cator light in the button comes on.
This function quickly demists and de-
ices the windscreen, the rear screen,
the front side windows, and the door
mirrors (depending on the vehicle). The
air conditioning and rear screen de-ic-
ing functions must be activated.
1
Prolonged use of air recirculation can lead to condensation forming on the side windows and windscreen, and discomfort due
to the use of non-renewed air in the passenger compartment. We therefore advise you to return to normal mode (external air)
as soon as the air recirculation function is no longer required, by pressing the control 4 again.

Automatic mode
The automatic climate control system
guarantees comfort in the passen-
ger compartment and good visibility
(except in the event of extreme condi-
tions), while optimising consumption.
The system controls the ventilation
speed, air distribution, air recirculation,
and starting and stopping the air condi-
tioning and air temperature.
This mode consists of a choice of three
programmes:
NORMAL : allows the selected comfort
level to be best attained, depending on
the exterior conditions. Press button 4
or key 9.
SOFT: reaches the desired comfort
level more gently and silently. Press
button 8.
FAST: increases the flow of air in the
passenger compartment. This mode
is recommended in particular to opti-
mise comfort in the rear seats. Press
button 10.

Varying the ventilation speed
In automatic mode, the system uses
the most suitable amount of air to reach
and maintain the desired comfort level.
You can still adjust the ventilation speed
by pressing buttons 10 or 17 or by slid-
ing your finger in zone 20.
Temperature adjustment
There are two types of settings:
– uniform passenger compartment
setting;
– “DUAL" function setting to independ-
ently adjust the left and right sides.
Uniform passenger compartment
setting
Use control 7.
DUAL function setting
Press button 15 to activate. Use con-
trol 7 to adjust the left side and control 2
for the right side.
The displayed temperature values
show a comfort level.
When starting the engine, increas-
ing or decreasing the value dis-
played will not allow the com-
fort level to be reached any more
quickly. The system will always op-
timise the temperature increase or
decrease (the ventilation system
does not start instantly at maximum
speed: it gradually increases). This
may take several minutes.
Generally speaking, unless there is
a particular reason not to, the dash-
board air vents should remain open.

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.
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.
AIR CONDITIONING: information and operating instructions (1/2)
Do not add anything to the
vehicle’s ventilation circuit
(for example, to remove
bad odours).
There is a risk of damage or of
fire.
Do not open the refriger-
ant fluid circuit. The fluid
may damage eyes or skin.
Fuel consumption
You will normally notice an increase in
fuel consumption (especially in town)
when the air conditioning is operating.
For vehicles fitted with air conditioning
with no automatic mode, switch off the
system when it is not required.
Advice for reducing consumption
and helping to preserve the
environment
Drive with the air vents open and the
windows 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.
Advice on use
In some situations (air conditioning off,
air recirculation activated, ventilation
speed at zero or low etc.), you may
notice that condensation starts to form
on the windows and windscreen.
If there is condensation, use the “Clear
View” function to remove it, then use
the air conditioning in automatic mode
to stop it forming again.
Use the air conditioning system reg-
ularly, even in cold weather, running
it at least once a month for approxi-
mately 5 minutes.
Vehicles equipped with ECO
mode: once activated, ECO mode
may reduce the performance of the
air conditioning. Please refer to the
information on “Driving advice, Eco-
driving” in Section 2.
3.20
AIR CONDITIONING: information and operating instructions (2/2)
The refrigerant circuit may contain
fluorinated greenhouse gases.
Depending on the vehicle, you will find
the following information on label A af-
fixed inside the engine compartment.
The presence and location of the infor-
mation on label A depends on the ve-
hicle.
Do not open the refriger-
ant circuit. The fluid may
damage eyes or skin.
Before performing any
action in the engine com-
partment, the ignition must
be switched off (please see
the information on “Starting, stop-
ping the engine” in Section 2).
