Ventilation - PEUGEOT RCZ Handbook

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.
AIR FLOW PATHS
The incoming air follows various routes depending on the control
positions selected by the driver:
- direct arrival in the passenger compartment (air intake),
- passage through a heating circuit (heating),
- passage through a cooling circuit (air conditioning).
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 diffuse the air in the
passenger compartment combining several air vents.
The air flow control enables you to increase or reduce the speed of the
ventilation blower.
