The vehicle speed has a slight effect on this. This principle improves the stability of the passenger compartment air temperature. The further the control is positioned to the right, the greater the quantity of air blown into the passenger compartment. Position O In this position: - The ventilation speed of air supplied to the passenger compartment is zero; - there is, however, a slight flow of air when the vehicle is moving. To alter this setting, move control E to the setting or higher. E Temporary isolation of passenger compartment Move control E from (position 1) to 4. the The air recycling position allows you to isolate yourself from the external atmosphere (when driving in polluted areas, etc. ). Prolonged use of this position (recycled air) may mist or ice up the windows slightly or cause odours due to the air not being renewed. It is advisable therefore to return to normal operation (external air) by adjusting control E when you have passed through the polluted area. Air recycling allows the desired temperature to be achieved as quickly as possible. This switches the air recycling system on or off. Normal operation of the heating and ventilation system is obtained using external air. 3. 10 AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONING 1 2 3 4 5 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 The controls 1 - Air conditioning button 5 - Automatic windscreen demisting button by means of ventilation 2 and 12 - Buttons for adjusting the air temperature 6 - Air recycling button 8 to 10 - Air distribution buttons 3 - Display 11 - Air conditioning button With the exception of buttons 2, 4, 7 and 12, a tell-tale light is integrated in all buttons.

The operating tell-tale light integrated in the button comes on. · Select an air temperature between 16°C and 26°C using buttons 2 or 12. Automatic air conditioning is a system which provides (except under extreme operating conditions) a comfortable ambient temperature in the passenger compartment. This system maintains the comfort level in the passenger compartment whatever the external conditions may be using a selected air temperature. MAX Position: temperature MIN Position: temperature Maximum Minimum air air 3. 12 AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONING (continued) 3 Generally, except in particularly uncomfortable circumstances, the dashboard vents may remain open whatever the climatic conditions. Operation of the automatic mode (continued) To reach and maintain the chosen temperature setting in automatic mode, the system continuously controls: - the fan speed; - the air distribution; - activation of the air recycling mode; - whether the air conditioning is on or off. The tell-tale lights indicate the system selection. The figure on the display 3 is a temperature setting. When the vehicle is started in cold or hot weather, increasing or decreasing the values displayed does not mean that the comfort level is reached more quickly (whatever the air temperature indicated, the system optimises the temperature increase or decrease). 3. 13 AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONING (continued) 1 5 To return to automatic mode, press button 1. You can also switch off the windscreen demisting/de-icing function using the air conditioning by pressing button 5 again. Visibility (automatic de-icing demisting) Press button 5 to demist/de-ice the windscreen by means of ventilation. tell-tale light This systems demists and de-ices the windscreen and the front side windows. For optimum efficiency, the automatic air conditioning should be switched on (tell-tale light lit up). The optimum air flow is then directed to the windscreen vents and the front side vents. The operating tell-tale light in the AUTO button goes out. 3. 14 AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONING (continued) Button 9 1 The air flow is distributed to the front and rear footwells only. Button 10 The air flow is mainly distributed to the dashboard vents. 10 Personalised operation 9 8 Selection of distribution air flow The system normally operates in automatic mode but you can alter the standard settings used by the system (quantity of air, etc. ). The automatic mode is switched off by pressing one of the following buttons.
