COMFORT
The condensation created by the
air conditioning results in a dis-
charge of water under the vehicle
which is perfectly normal.
i RECOMMENDATIONS FOR VENTILATION AND AIR
CONDITIONING
In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and main-
tenance guidelines below:
) 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 (refer to the "Checks" section).
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 de-
posits).
) 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 PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures,
switching off the air conditioning increases the available engine power and so
improves the towing ability.
If after an extended stop in sunshine, 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.
