Dual-zone digital air conditioning

The air conditioning only operates when the engine is running.

Automatic operation

1. Automatic comfort programme
F Press the "AUTO" button. The
indicator lamp on 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 flow, 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.
68
When the engine is cold, to prevent
too great a distribution of cold air, the
air flow will reach its optimum level
gradually.
In cold weather, it favours the
distribution of warm air to the
windscreen, side windows and footwells
only.
2-3. Driver-passenger side
adjustment
The driver and front passenger can
each adjust the temperature to their
requirements.
The value indicated on the display corresponds
to a level of comfort and not to a temperature in
degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit.
F 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
more quickly. The system corrects the
difference in temperature automatically
and as quickly as possible.
4. Automatic visibility
programme
The automatic comfort programme
may not be sufficient to quickly
demist or defrost the windscreen
and side windows (humidity,
several passengers, ice, etc.).
F In this case, select the automatic visibility
programme.
The system automatically controls the air
conditioning, the air flow and the air intake and
provides optimum distribution of the ventilation
to the windscreen and side windows.
F To switch it off, press the "visibility" button
again or press the "AUTO" button, the indicator
lamp in the button goes off or the indicator lamp
on the "AUTO" button comes on.
