Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning
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
by opening the windows.
Place the air flow control at a sufficient level to provide an adequate renewal of air in
the passenger compartment.
F Condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of water under the
vehicle when stationary, which is perfectly normal.
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 Use in preference the intake of exterior air as prolonged use of the air recirculation may
cause misting of the windows and side windows.
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 "Checks").
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 CITROËN dealer or
a qualified workshop.
Comfort
The heating and air conditioning use
energy from the main battery. Their use
increases electrical consumption and
reduces the range of the vehicle.
Remember to switch off the heating
or air conditioning as soon as it is no
longer needed.
