         Heating and Ventilation 

The air circulating in the passenger compartment 
is filtered and originates either from the outside via
the grille located at the base of the windscreen or 
from the inside in air recirculation mode.  

Controls

The incoming air follows various routes
depending on the controls selected by 
the driver, the front passenger and rear 
passengers, according to the level of 
equipment.
The temperature control enables you to obtain
the level of comfort required by mixing the air of 
the various circuits.
The air distribution control enables you to
select the air vents used in the passenger 
compartment by the combined use of the
associated buttons.
The air flow control enables you to increase or 
reduce the speed of the ventilation fan. 
These controls are grouped together on control
panel  on the centre console.

1. Windscreen demisting/defrosting vents.
2.   Front side window demisting/defrosting 

vents. 

3.   Side adjustable air vents. 
4. Central adjustable air vents. 

5.  Air 

outlets to the front footwells.

6. Adjustable air vents for the rear 

passengers. 

7.  Air 

outlets to the rear footwells.   

  Air distribution 

System which creates and maintains good
conditions of comfort and visibility in the 
vehicle's passenger compartment.

87

Comfort

 In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance 
guidelines below: 
)

   If the interior temperature remains very high after the vehicle has been parked in the sun for a 

considerable time, first ventilate the passenger compartment for a few minutes.  

 

Place the air flow control at a sufficient level to provide an adequate renewal of air in the 
passenger compartment.

)

   To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake grilles 

located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as well
as the air extractor located in the boot. 

)

   Use in preference the intake of exterior air as prolonged use of the air recirculation may

cause misting of the windows and side windows.

)

   Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for regulation 

of the automatic air conditioning system.

)

   Operate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month to keep it

in good working order. 

)

   Ensure that the passenger compartment filter is in good condition and have the filter 

elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks" section).

 

We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment filter. Thanks to its 
second special active filter, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by the 
occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compartment (reduction of allergic 
symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).

)

   The air conditioning uses power from the engine while operating. This results in an

increase in the vehicle's fuel consumption.  

 When 

towing at or near maximum capacity or on steep slopes in high ambient 

temperatures, switching off the air conditioning saves engine power and so improves
towing capacity.

 

Condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of water under the
vehicle when stationary, which is perfectly normal.

)

   To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to have

it checked regularly.

)

   If the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a PEUGEOT dealer or 

a qualified workshop.  

Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning 

  The air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and does not present 
any danger to the ozone layer.

 Manual air conditioning 

The air conditioning can only operate with the engine running.

)

   Turn the dial from left

(cold) to right (hot) to adjust
the temperature to your 
requirements.   

  2. Air fl ow adjustment 

)

Press the  "full fan"  button to 
increase the air flow.  

 According to the value selected, 

the associated line of LEDs fills 
progressively.

)

  Press the "empty fan"  button to

reduce the air flow.

  3. Air distribution adjustment

  4. Air intake / Air recirculation 

)

  Press this button to recirculate

the interior air. The indicator 
lamp comes on to confirm this. 

)

   Press the button again to 

permit the intake of exterior air. 
The indicator lamp goes off to
confirm this.   

 The intake of exterior air prevents the formation 
of mist on the windscreen and side windows.
 The recirculation of interior air isolates the 
passenger compartment from exterior odours 
and smoke.
 Return to exterior air intake as soon as possible 
to prevent deterioration of the the air quality 
and the formation of mist. 

5. Air conditioning On / Off 

 The air conditioning is designed to 
operate effectively in all seasons,
with the windows closed. 

It enables you to: 
-  

lower the temperature, in summer,

-  

increase the effectiveness of the demisting
in winter, above 3°C.

1. Automatic comfort programme 

)

  Press this  "AUTO" button. The

indicator lamp comes on.

We recommend that you use this mode. It 
automatically adjusts all settings to provide
optimum operation for the comfort level chosen: 
passenger compartment temperature, air flow, 
air distribution and air recirculation. 
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 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.

   Turn control or to the left

(blue) or to the right (red) 
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.
