Avoid prolonged use of interior air
recirculation (due to the risk of misting
and deteriorating air quality).
On/Off
► To switch the system on, set the temperature
and air flow controls to the corresponding
marked position. Then set the air distribution
control to the “Windscreen” position.
► To switch the system off, set the air flow
control to the fan position.
Air conditioning on/off
The air conditioning is designed to operate
effectively in all seasons, with the windows
closed.
Ventilation function with the
ignition on
When the ignition is switched on, you can
use the ventilation system to adjust the air
flow settings and the air distribution in the
passenger compartment for a duration which
depends on the battery charge.
It enables you to:
With touch screen
– lower the temperature, in summer,
– increase the effectiveness of the demisting in
winter, above 3°C.
On/Off
This function does not operate the air
conditioning.
► Press button 5 to turn the air conditioning on/
off.
► To switch the system on, press this
button.
The indicator lamp in the button comes on.
The system automatically manages the air
conditioning, air flow and air intake, and provides
optimum distribution towards the windscreen and
side windows.
The air conditioning cannot operate when
the air flow adjustment is set to OFF.
Front demist - defrost
These markings on the control panels
indicate the control positions for rapid
demisting or defrosting of the windscreen and
side windows.
During the winter period, direct the side air
vents towards the side windows to optimise their
demisting and defrosting.
Recirculation of interior air
The intake of exterior air helps avoid and
eliminate misting of the windscreen and side
windows.
Recirculating the interior air isolates the
passenger compartment from exterior odours
and fumes.
► Press this button again to switch it off.
The indicator lamp in the button goes off.
With Stop & Start, when demisting
- defrosting has been activated, STOP
mode is not available.
When required, this function also allows
faster heating or cooling of the air in the
passenger compartment.
