Heating and Ventilation
Air intake
The air circulating in the passenger compartment
is filtered and originates either from the
exterior, via the grille located at the base of the
windscreen, or from the inside in air recirculation
mode.
Repositioning the backrests
Advice
First check that the outer seat belts are
lying vertically flat alongside the backrest
latching rings.
Using the ventilation and air
conditioning system
Controls
Depending on version, certain controls
are accessible in the Climate touch
screen application and/via the control panel on
the centre console.
► To ensure that 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.
Air distribution
► 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.
► Put the backrest 3 in the upright position and
push it firmly to latch it home.
► Check that the red indicator is no longer
visible in the release grip 1.
► Ensure that the outer seat belts were not
trapped during the operation.
Please note: an incorrectly latched
backrest compromises the safety of
passengers in the event of sudden braking or
an accident.
The contents of the boot may be thrown
forwards - risk of serious injury!
