Ease of use and comfort -> Automatic air conditioning for Your Peugeot 3008 SUV Third Generation (2024-2025)

Ease of use and comfort  
► Do not cover the sunshine sensor located  
on the dashboard; this sensor is used to  
regulate the automatic air conditioning  
system.  
► Operate the air conditioning system for at  
least 5 to 10 minutes once or twice a month to  
keep it in good working order.  
► If the system does not produce cold air,  
switch it off and contact a PEUGEOT dealer  
or a qualified workshop.  
When towing a large load on a steep gradient  
in high temperatures, switching off the air  
conditioning increases the available engine  
power, enhancing the towing capacity.  
Servicing the ventilation and air  
conditioning system  
► Ensure that the passenger compartment  
filter is in good condition and have the filter  
elements replaced regularly.  
We recommend using a composite passenger  
compartment filter. Its specific active additive  
helps protect against polluting gases and bad  
smells.  
► To ensure correct operation of the  
air conditioning system, have it checked  
according to the recommendations in the  
Manufacturer’s service schedule.  
Automatic air conditioning  
This system automatically controls the activation  
of the air conditioning system, regulating the  
temperature, air flow and air distribution inside  
the passenger compartment.  
This system works with the engine running, but  
access to the ventilation and its controls remains  
possible with the ignition on.

Press the Climate application button to  
display the system controls page.  
Stop & Start  
Avoid driving for too long with the  
ventilation off or with prolonged operation  
of interior air recirculation. Risk of misting and  
deterioration of the air quality!  
The heating and air conditioning systems  
only operate when the engine is running.  
Temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start  
system to maintain a comfortable temperature  
in the passenger compartment.  
For more information on the Stop &  
Start system, refer to the corresponding  
section.  
If the interior temperature is very high  
after the vehicle has stood for a long  
time in the sunshine, air 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.  
ECO driving mode  
Selecting this mode reduces electrical  
energy consumption, but restricts the  
performance of the heating and air  
conditioning systems, although it does not  
deactivate them.  
Condensation created by the air  
conditioning results in a discharge of  
water underneath the vehicle. This is perfectly  
normal.

available.  
Interior air recirculation  
Switching off the thermal  
comfort system  
The intake of exterior air prevents the formation  
of mist on the windscreen and side windows.  
Recirculating the interior air isolates the  
passenger compartment from outside odours  
and fumes and allows the desired passenger  
compartment temperature to be achieved more  
rapidly.  
► Press this button.  
In wintry conditions, before moving off, it  
is essential to remove any snow or ice  
from the windscreen around the camera.  
Otherwise, the operation of the equipment  
using the camera may be affected.
