AUTOMATIC REGULATION OF  
THE DIGITAL AIR CONDITIONING  
Use of the automatic regulation of the  
air conditioning is recommended. It per-  
mits automatic and optimised control of  
all of the following functions: air ow,  
passenger compartment temperature  
and air distribution, by means of various  
sensors (ambient temperature, interior  
temperature, sunshine), so preventing  
the need for you to change your set-  
tings other than the value displayed.

If the system does not produce cold air,  
do not use it and have it checked by a

CITROËN dealer or a qualied work-  
shop.  
In certain cases of particularly arduous  
use (towing the maximum load on a

They are required for regulation of the  
air conditioning.  
Close the windows to benet from the  
full effectiveness of the air conditioning.  
Ensure that the passenger compart-  
ment lter is in good condition. Have  
the lter elements replaced periodically.  
If you drive in a dusty environment, re-  
place it twice as often.  
Switch off the air conditioning  
when the climatic conditions  
permit.  
Advice on operation  
In hot weather, in order to obtain in-  
tense ventilation, it is advisable to  
use vents 1 and 4 only.  
The air conditioning system does not  
contain chlorine and is not harmful to  
the ozone layer.  
If, when the vehicle has been parked  
in the sun for a long time, the interior  
temperature remains very high, rst  
ventilate the passenger compart-  
ment for a few minutes.  
Operate the air conditioning system for  
5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month,  
to keep it in good working order.

Automatic operation  
In automatic mode:  
) when the temperature is set to max-  
imum (Rapid heating), the intake of  
exterior air is activated and the air  
conditioning stops.  
When the engine is cold, to avoid an  
excessive distribution of cold air, the  
ventilation will reach its optimum lev-  
el gradually.  
On entering the vehicle, the interior  
temperature may be much colder (or  
warmer) than the comfort tempera-  
ture. There is no need to change the  
temperature displayed in order to  
reach the comfort required rapidly.  
) Set the temperature control dial 3 to  
the temperature required.  
) Place the air ow control dial 2 in  
the "AUTO" position.  
) Place the air distribution adjustment  
dial 1 in the "AUTO" position.  
)
when the temperature is set to mini-  
mum (Rapid cooling), the air recircula-  
tion is activated and the air conditioning  
operates.  
The system controls the air distribu-  
tion, air ow, temperature and air intake  
to ensure the level of comfort and ad-  
equate air circulation in the passenger  
compartment. No further action on your  
part is required.  
The automatic regulation of the air  
conditioning will operate to correct  
the temperature difference as quickly  
as possible.
