44 Ventilation CORRECT USE OF THE AIR CONDITIONING In all seasons, if fitted on your vehicle, the air conditioning should only be used with the windows closed. However, if the interior temperature remains high after a prolonged period parked in the sun, do not hesitate to ventilate the passenger compartment for a few minutes. For even air distribution, ensure that the exterior air intake grille located at the base of the windscreen is not obstructed and that the side and central vents, the air outlets on the floor and the air extractor at the rear are open. The air conditioning is useful in all seasons as it eliminates condensation and air humidity. VENTS "Leave them open" or cool air in the passenger compartment, there are 4 adjustable central and side vents which can be directed sideways (right or left) towards the top of the body. For your comfort while driving, do not close them, direct the flow of air towards the windows instead. The air vents directed towards the floor of the vehicle complete the equipment. Operate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month, to keep it in perfect working order. It is normal that the condensation created by the air conditioning system results in a flow of water which may form a puddle under the vehicle when parked. If the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact your PEUGEOT dealer. Passenger compartment filter, pollen filter and have all of the filter elements replaced regularly. Refer to the "Levels and checks" section of chapter 7. We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment filter. By means of its second special active filter, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by the occupants and to the cleanness of the passenger compartment (reduction of allergic symptoms, unpleasant odours and greasy deposits). The pollen filter permits continuous and effective filtering of dust. |
