Heating and Ventilation

Air intake

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.

Controls

The incoming air follows various routes

depending on the controls selected by the

driver, the front passenger or rear passengers,

depending on the level of equipment.

The temperature control enables you to obtain

the level of comfort required by mixing the air of

the various circuits.

The air distribution control enables you to

select the air vents used in the passenger

compartment by the combined use of the

associated buttons.

5. Air outlets to the front footwells.

Using the ventilation and air

conditioning system

F To ensure that the air is distributed

evenly, keep the external air intake

grilles at the base of the windscreen,

the nozzles, the vents, the air outlets

and the air extractor in the boot free

from obstructions.

F Do not cover the sunshine sensor,

located on the dashboard; this is used

for regulation of the automatic air

conditioning system.

6. Air outlets to the rear footwells.

3

The condensation created by the air

conditioning results in a discharge of water

under the vehicle which is perfectly normal.

F Operate the air conditioning system for

at least 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice

a month to keep it in perfect working

order.

F 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.

Servicing the ventilation and air

conditioning system

F Ensure that the passenger compartment

filter is in good condition and have the

filter elements replaced regularly.

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).

F To ensure correct operation of the

air conditioning system, you are also

advised to have it checked regularly

as recommended in the Warranty and

Maintenance Record.
