Ease of use and comfort
This disables all functions of the dual-zone
automatic air conditioning system.
The temperature is no longer regulated. A slight
flow of air can still be felt, due to the forward
movement of the vehicle.
For maximum cooling or heating of the
passenger compartment, it is possible to
exceed the minimum value 14 or the
maximum value 28.
► Push button 1 down until "LO" is
displayed or up until "HI" is displayed.
Air conditioning
With the engine running, the air conditioning is
designed to operate effectively in all seasons,
with the windows closed.
It enables you to:
► Press button 2 "+" to switch the system on
again.
– lower the temperature in summer,
– enhance the effectiveness of the demisting
function in winter, above 3°C.
"Mono" function
The comfort setting for the passenger side
can be indexed to the driver's comfort setting
(mono-zone).
► Press the corresponding button 8 to activate/
deactivate the function.
The indicator lamp in the button comes on when
the function is activated.
Temperature
The driver and front passenger can each set the
temperature to suit their preferences.
The value shown on the display is a level
of comfort, not a temperature in Celsius or
Fahrenheit.
On/Off
► Press button 5 to activate/deactivate the air
conditioning system.
When the air conditioning is in operation, to
cool the air more quickly, you can use interior
air recirculation for a few moments by pressing
button 4. Then restore the intake of exterior air.
► Push button 1 down to decrease the value or
up to increase it.
The function is deactivated automatically if a
passenger uses the temperature control.
A setting of around 21 provides optimum
comfort. Depending on your
requirements, a setting between 18 and 24 is
normal.
In addition, we recommend avoiding left/right
setting differences of more than 3.
The air conditioning does not operate
when the air flow adjustment is set to off.

optimum distribution towards the windscreen and
side windows.
► Press the "visibility" button 7 again to stop
the programme.
Air distribution
On entering the vehicle, if the interior
temperature is significantly colder or
warmer than the comfort value setting, there
is no need to alter the value displayed in
order to reach the required level of comfort.
The system compensates automatically and
corrects the temperature difference as quickly
as possible.
