Before taking to the road and to make the

most of the ergonomic layout, carry out these

adjustments in the following order:

– head restraint height.

– seat backrest angle.

– seat cushion height.

►ꢀ Adjust the height of the head restraint.

Never drive with the head restraints

removed; they should be in place and

adjusted for the occupant of the seat.

– longitudinal seat position.

– steering wheel reach and then height.

– rear view mirror and door mirrors.

Front seats

For safety reasons, seat adjustments

must only be made when the vehicle is

stationary.

Upwards:

Once these adjustments have been

made, check that the "head-up"

instrument panel can be viewed correctly

►ꢀ Pull the head restraint up to the desired

position; you can feel the head restraint clicking

into position.

Downwards:

►ꢀ Press lug A to lower the head restraint.

Before moving the seat backwards,

ensure that there is no person or

object that might prevent the full travel of

the seat.

The head restraint is correctly adjusted

when its upper edge is level with the

top of the occupant's head.

There is a risk of trapping or pinching

passengers if present in the rear seats or of

jamming the seat if large objects are placed

on the floor behind the seat.

Ease of use and comfort

►ꢀ Operate the air conditioning system

for at least 5 to 10 minutes once or twice a

month to keep it in good working order.

►ꢀ If the system does not produce cold air,

switch it off and contact a CITROËN dealer

or a qualified workshop.

When towing a large load on a steep

gradient in high temperatures, switching off

the air conditioning increases the available

engine power, enhancing the towing

capacity.

The electrochrome system uses a sensor that

detects the level of exterior brightness and that

coming from the rear of the vehicle, in order

to automatically and gradually switch between

day and night usage.

Air intake

If the interior temperature is very high

after the vehicle has stood for a long

time in the sunshine, air the passenger

compartment for a few moments.

Put the air flow control at a setting high

enough to quickly change the air in the

passenger compartment.

The air circulating in the passenger

compartment is filtered and originates either

from the exterior, via the grille located at the

base of the windscreen, or from the inside in air

recirculation mode.

Advice

Using the ventilation and air

conditioning system

Controls

►ꢀ To ensure that air is distributed evenly,

keep the external air intake grilles at the

base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the

vents, the air outlets and the air extractor in

the boot free from obstructions.

►ꢀ Do not cover the sunshine sensor located

on the dashboard; this sensor is used to

regulate the automatic air conditioning

system.

The controls are grouped together on the

centre console panel.

The demisting/defrosting controls for the

windscreen and the rear screen are located

below the touch screen, or on the centre

console panel located below the audio system.

Condensation created by the air

conditioning results in a discharge of

water underneath the vehicle. This is

perfectly normal.

The air conditioning operates with the engine

running, but the ventilation and its controls can

be accessed with the ignition on.

Avoid the prolonged recirculation of

interior air in order to ensure a good

supply of fresh air and reduce the risk of

misting (especially when several passengers

are on board or when the air is cold/damp,

etc.).

In cold weather with the engine cold,

the air flow is increased gradually until

the comfort setting has been reached, in

order to limit the delivery of cold air into the

passenger compartment.

On entering the vehicle, if the interior

temperature is much colder or warmer

than the comfort setting requested, there

is no need to alter the value displayed to

more quickly reach the required level of

comfort. The system automatically corrects

the temperature difference as quickly as

possible.

With the air conditioning on, regulation of

temperature and interior air recirculation are

controlled manually.

Air conditioning on/off

The air conditioning system is designed to

operate effectively in all seasons, with the

windows closed:

– It lowers the temperature in summer.

– It increases the effectiveness of the
