Automatic Operation - PEUGEOT RCZ Handbook

DUAL-ZONE DIGITAL
AIR CONDITIONING
The air conditioning only operates when the engine is running.

AUTOMATIC OPERATION

1. Automatic comfort programme
 Press the "AUTO" button. The indicator lamp in the
button comes on.
We recommend the use of this mode: it permits automatic and
optimised adjustment of all of the functions, passenger compartment
temperature, air fl ow, air distribution and air recirculation, in accordance
with the comfort value that you have chosen.
This system is designed to operate effectively in all seasons, with the
windows closed.
When the engine is cold, to prevent too great a distribution of cold
air, the air fl ow will reach its optimum level gradually.
In cold weather, it favours the distribution of warm air to the
windscreen, side windows and footwells only.
2. Driver's side adjustment
3. Passenger's side adjustment
The driver and front passenger can each adjust the
temperature to their requirements.
AUTO
The value indicated on the display corresponds to a level
of comfort and not to a temperature in degrees Celsius or
Fahrenheit.
 Turn control 2 or 3 to the left or to the right respectively to decrease
or increase this value.
A setting around the value 21 provides optimum comfort. However,
depending on your requirements, a setting between 18 and 24 is
normal.
You are advised to avoid a left / right setting difference of more than 3.
On entering the vehicle, if the interior temperature is much colder
or warmer than the comfort value, there is no need to change
the value displayed in order to obtain the comfort required. The
system corrects the difference in temperature automatically and
as quickly as possible.
