The air conditioning system does
not contain chlorine and does not
present any danger to the ozone
layer.
In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and main-
tenance rules below:
If the interior temperature remains very high after the vehicle has been
parked in the sun for a considerable time, do not hesitate to ventilate the
passenger compartment for a few minutes.
Place the air flow control at a sufficient level to provide an adequate
renewal of air in the passenger compartment.
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 fascia; this is used for
regulation of the air conditioning system.
Operate the air conditioning system for 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 second special active filter, it contributes to the purification
of the air breathed by the occupants and the cleanness of the passenger
compartment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy
deposits).
To guarantee correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also
advised to have it checked regularly.
If the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures,
switching off the air conditioning permits the recovery of engine power and
therefore improvement of the towing capacity.
The condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of
water under the vehicle which is perfectly normal.
