Ease of use and comfort  
The air conditioning system operates  
automatically: the system manages the  
temperature, air flow and air distribution in  
the passenger compartment in an optimum  
way according to the comfort level you have  
selected.  
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  
in order to reach more quickly the  
required level of comfort. The system  
compensates automatically and corrects  
the temperature difference as quickly as  
possible.  
Avoid driving for too long without  
ventilation – Risk of misting and  
deterioration of air quality!  
F Go to the secondary page by pressing  
button 6 "OPTIONS" to adjust the automatic  
comfort programme by choosing one of the  
available settings.

decrease the air flow from the system.  
The symbol for air flow (a fan) fills progressively

Recirculation of interior air
