Page 55 Ease of use and comfort Recommendations for use If the interior temperature remains very high after a prolonged period parked in the sun, first ventilate the passenger compartment for a few minutes. For an even air distribution, make sure that you do not block the outside air inlet grille, the vents, the air passages and the air outlets to the footwells. Ensure that the passenger compartment filter, located behind the glove box in the heater unit, is in good condition. Have the filter elements replaced regularly. If you drive in dusty conditions, change them twice as often. Operate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month, to keep it in perfect working order. In order to ensure that your air conditioning system continues to operate correctly, you are advised to have it checked regularly. If the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop. The condensation created by the air conditioning results in a flow of water under the vehicle when stationary which is perfectly normal. The air conditioning system does not contain chlorine and does not present any danger to the ozone layer.
