Ease of use and comfort
Roof blower with control switch
Roof blower allows inside air recirculation by
sucking cabin air from bottom opening and
throwing it from the four vents towards 2nd
and 3rd rows.
Air flow can be increased gradually with
3 different speeds available.
It can be useful when attempting to quickly
cool down the vehicle.
2nd and 3rd rows: for better cooling, place the
front A/C vent angle towards 2nd row blower.
Advice
Using the ventilation and air
conditioning system
► To ensure that air is distributed evenly,
keep the external air intake grilles at the
base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the
20
vents, the air outlets and the air extractor in
the boot free from obstructions.
► Operate the air conditioning system
for at least 5 to 10 minutes once or twice a
month to keep it in perfect working order.
► If the system does not produce cold air,
switch it off and contact a CITROËN dealer.
Avoid driving for too long with the
ventilation off or with prolonged
operation of interior air recirculation. Risk of
misting and deterioration of the air quality!
If the interior temperature is very high
after the vehicle has stood for a long
time in the sunshine, drive with the windows
open for a few moments to air the passenger
compartment.
Put the air flow control at a setting high
enough to quickly change the air in the
passenger compartment.
Condensation created by the air
conditioning results in a discharge of
water underneath the vehicle. This is
perfectly normal.
Servicing the ventilation and air
conditioning system
► Ensure that the passenger compartment
filter is in good condition and have the filter
elements replaced regularly.
► To ensure correct operation of the
air conditioning system, have it checked
according to the recommendations in the
Maintenance and Warranty Guide.
