Using an exterior pollution sensor, this function

automatically activates the recirculation of

interior air when a certain level of pollutants in

the exterior air is detected.

When the air quality returns to a satisfactory

level, recirculation of interior air is automatically

deactivated.

This function is not designed to detect

unpleasant odours.

Recirculation is automatically activated when the

windscreen wash is used or when reverse gear

is engaged.

The function is inactive if the outside

temperature is below 5°C to prevent the risk of

misting on the windscreen and side windows.

Clean Air function

Using an interior pollution sensor, this function

detects fine particles (e.g. cigarette smoke,

mould, bacteria).

It is also possible to directly press one of the

air flow is increased gradually until the

comfort setting has been reached, in order to

limit the delivery of cold air into the passenger

compartment.

On entering the vehicle, if the interior

temperature is much colder or warmer

than the comfort setting requested, there

is no need to alter the value displayed to

more quickly reach the required level of

comfort. The system automatically corrects

the temperature difference as quickly as

possible.

available.

Interior air recirculation

Air conditioning does not operate when the

air flow is deactivated.

To obtain cool air more quickly, enable interior

air recirculation for a brief period. Then return

to the intake of exterior air.

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.

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.

Switching off the air conditioning may result in

some discomfort (humidity or misting).

► Press this button to activate/

deactivate the function (confirmed

by the illumination/extinction of the

indicator lamp).
