VENTILATION
Advice on operation
Select the air distribution most suited
to your requirements and the climatic
conditions.
Gradually adjust the temperature
setting for your comfort.
Position the air control in the "Out-
side Air" position.
For perfectly even air distribution,
take care not to obstruct the exterior
air intake grille and the vents. Check
that the passenger compartment il-
ter is in good condition.
1. Windscreen de-icing or
demisting vents.
2. Front window de-icing or
demisting vents.
3. Side vents.
4. Centre vents.
5. Air outlets to front footwells.
De-icing the rear screen and
mirrors
With the engine running, pressing
the control de-ices the rear screen
and mirrors.
When the engine is cold, to prevent
too great a distribution of cold air, the
ventilation will increase to its opti-
mum level gradually.
In order to be effective, the air condi-
tioning (A/C button), should only be
used with the windows closed.
If the interior temperature remains
very high following a prolonged peri-
od parked in the sun, do not hesitate
to ventilate the passenger compart-
ment for a few minutes.
It switches off automatically after ap-
proximately twelve minutes.
Pressing the control again switches
the de-icing system on again for
twelve minutes.
It is possible to switch off the de-
icing by pressing the control before
the twelve minutes have elapsed.
