Ease of use and comfort -> Ventilation for Your Peugeot Ion 4 Door First Generation (2010-2020)

Ease of use and comfort  
Ventilation  
System which creates and maintains good  
conditions of comfort and visibility in the  
vehicle's passenger compartment.  
3
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.  
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.  
Air distribution  
1. Windscreen demisting/defrosting vents.  
2. Front side window demisting/defrosting  
vents.  
4. Central adjustable air vents.  
5. Air outlets to the front footwells.  
The air flow control enables you to increase or  
reduce the speed of the ventilation fan.  
These controls are grouped together on control  
panel A on the centre console.  
3. Side adjustable air vents.

Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning  
In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance  
guidelines below:  
The heating and air conditioning use  
energy from the main battery. Their use  
increases electrical consumption and  
reduces the range of the vehicle.  
Remember to switch off the heating or  
air conditioning as soon as they are no  
longer needed.  
F
If the interior temperature remains very high after the vehicle has been parked in  
the sun for a considerable time, first ventilate the passenger compartment for a few  
moments by opening the windows.  
Place the air flow control at a sufficient level to provide an adequate renewal of air in  
the passenger compartment.  
F
F
Condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of water under the  
vehicle when stationary, which is perfectly normal.  
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.

Favour the intake of exterior air as prolonged use of the air recirculation may cause  
misting of the windscreen and the side windows.  
Operate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month to keep it  
in good working order.  
Ensure that the passenger compartment filter is in good condition and have the filter  
elements replaced regularly.  
To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to have  
it checked regularly.  
During normal charging of the  
vehicle, the ventilation, heating and  
air conditioning can be activated from  
the ACC position of the switch.  
During fast charging of the vehicle, the  
ventilation, heating and air conditioning  
cannot be activated.  
If the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a PEUGEOT dealer or  
a qualified workshop.
