Air conditioning
Sensors
The air vents to the face have grilles
and thumbwheels to adjust the air
flow and direction (up-down, right-
left).
To ensure that your system operates
correctly, it is recommended to have
it checked regularly.
Water arising from condensation
in the air conditioning drains away
through a hole provided for this pur-
pose. A pool of water may thus form
under the vehicle when stationary.
To keep the air conditioning com-
pressor well sealed, it is essential to
operate the air conditioning at least
once in every month.

Air circulation
Air vents on the floor underneath the
front seats provide enhanced heat-
ing for the rear seat positions; take
care not to obstruct them.
Regardless of the season, the air
conditioning is useful, since it re-
moves humidity and condensation.
To be effective, the air conditioning
should only be used with the win-
dows closed.
If after a lengthy stop in bright sun-
light the interior temperature is exces-
sive, air the passenger compartment
by opening the windows for a few
moments, then close them again.
The automatic regulation of the air
conditioning, inside the cabin, uses
a number of sensors (sunlight sen-
sor, outside temperature sensor...)
that relieve you of the need to make
frequent adjustments outside the
displayed temperature.
Be careful not to obstruct the sun-
light sensor, located on the dash-
board behind the instrument panel.
Dust filter/Odour filter
(active carbon)
There is a filter for excluding odours
and dust.
This filter has to be changed in ac-
cordance with the vehicle's servic-
ing schedule (see "Maintenance and
Warranty Guide").
The air conditioning operates by using
power from the engine. This results in
a slight increase in fuel consumption.
