qualified workshop.

Demisting-defrosting of the door

mirrors operates with the engine

running, by switching on the heated

rear screen (refer to the "Rear screen

demist-defrost" section).

The objects observed are, in reality,

closer than they appear.

Rear view mirror

Adjustable mirror providing a central rearward view.

Equipped with an anti-dazzle system, which darkens the mirror glass and reduces the nuisance to

the driver caused by the sun, headlamps from other vehicles...

Automatic tilting in reverse gear

System which provides a view of the ground

during parking manoeuvres in reverse gear.

As a safety measure, the mirrors should be adjusted to reduce the "blind spot".

With the engine running, on engaging reverse

gear, the mirror glasses tilt downwards.

They return to their initial position:

Manual day/night model

Automatic day/night model

a few seconds after coming out of reverse gear,

once the speed of the vehicle exceeds

6 mph (10 km/h),

settings".

By means of a sensor, which measures the

light from the rear of the vehicle, this system

passengers without the need to move the rear

view mirror.

It can be folded away to eliminate dazzle.

As a safety precaution, these

operations should only be carried out

while the vehicle is stationary.

Comfort

Ventilation

The air circulating in the passenger compartment

is filtered and originates either from the outside via

the grille located at the base of the windscreen or

from the inside in air recirculation mode.

Air treatment

The incoming air follows various routes

depending on the controls selected by the

driver:

-

direct arrival in the passenger compartment

(air intake),

-

passage through a heating circuit (heating),

passage through a cooling circuit (air

conditioning).

Air distribution

1. Windscreen demisting-defrosting vents.

2. Front quarter light demisting-defrosting

vents.

3. Front side window demisting/defrosting

vents.

Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning

In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance

If after an extended stop in sunshine,

guidelines below:

the interior temperature is very high, first

ventilate 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 conditioning system does not

contain chlorine and does not present

any danger to the ozone layer.

ꢀ

To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake grilles

located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as well

as the air extractor located in the boot.

ꢀ

Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for regulation

of the digital air conditioning system.

Operate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month

to keep it in perfect working order.

Ensure that the passenger compartment filter is in good condition and have the filter

elements replaced regularly.

3

We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment filter. Thanks to its

special active additive, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by the

occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compartment (reduction of allergic

symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).

To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to have

it checked regularly as recommended in the maintenance and warranty guide.

If the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a CITROËN dealer or a

qualified workshop.

The condensation created by the air

conditioning results in a discharge

of water under the vehicle which is

perfectly normal.
