Get Your comfort -> AUTOMATIC AIR-CONDITIONING Guide for Renault Zoe 4 Door First Generation (2012-2018)

3.4

AUTOMATIC AIR-CONDITIONING (1/4)

The system controls the fan speed, air

distribution, air recirculation,starting

and stopping the air conditioning, the

heating and air temperature.

AUTO: allows the selected comfort

level to be best attained, depending on

the exterior conditions. Press button 1.

Adjusting the air temperature

Turn control 2 to obtain the desired

temperature. The further the pointer is

away from the heating stop position,

the higher the temperature will be.

If the outdoor temperature is too high,

the heating decreases automatically.

This limits energy consumption and

maintains the range of the vehicle.

Special note: the highest and lowest

settings allow the system to produce

maximum hot or cold temperature

levels (“ LOW” and “HIGH" indicated on

the multimedia display).

8 Air recirculation.

9 De-icing/demisting of the rear screen

and, depending on the vehicle, the

door mirrors.

Heating or air-conditioning can only be

used while the engine is running.

Automatic mode

The automatic climate control system

guarantees comfort in the passen-

ger compartment and good visibility

(except in the event of extreme condi-

tions), while optimising consumption.

The controls

1 Automatic mode.

2 Air temperature adjuster.

3 “Clear View” function.

4 Passenger compartment air distribu-

tion adjustment.

5 Air-conditioning deactivation control.

6 Adjusting the fan speed until the

system switches off.

7 Depending on the vehicle, quick

access control to the “Air condition-

ing programming” menu or activa-

tion control for air conditioning pro-

gramming.

Some buttons have an operating

tell-tale which indicates the operat-

ing status.

3.5

Deactivating the air-

conditioning

The button 5 stops (warning light on)

the operation of the air-conditioning.

To activate the air-conditioning, press

the button 1. The integrated warning

light in the button 5 will go out.

The air conditioning system is used

for:

– lowering the temperature inside the

passenger compartment;

– eliminating condensation more

quickly.

The air conditioning does not operate

when the exterior temperature is low.

AUTOMATIC AIR-CONDITIONING (2/4)

The displayed temperature values

show a comfort level.

When starting the engine, increas-

ing or decreasing the value dis-

played will not allow the com-

fort level to be reached any more

quickly. The system will always op-

timise the temperature increase or

decrease (the ventilation system

does not start instantly at maximum

speed: it gradually increases). This

may take several minutes.

Generally speaking, unless there is

a particular reason not to, the dash-

board air vents should remain open.

Preferably, use automatic mode.

In automatic mode (the button’s

warning light 1 is lit), all heating and

air-conditioning functions are con-

trolled by the system.

You can always modify the choice

of system; in this case, the warning

light in the button 1 goes out.

Advice: to optimize vehicle range, de-

activate the air conditioning when the

outside temperature is comfortable.

Clear View function

Press button 3 – the integrated indica-

tor light comes on.

This system quickly demists and de-

ices the windscreen and the front side

windows. It requires the automatic

usage of the air-conditioning or the

heating.

To exit this function, press the button

marked 3.

3.6

AUTOMATIC AIR-CONDITIONING (3/4)

Adjusting the ventilation

speed

Turn the control 6 to one of the eight

positions to start the ventilation system

and adjust the power.

Position OFF

In this position:

– the air conditioning switches off au-

tomatically;

– the ventilation speed of air in the

passenger compartment is zero;

– there is, however, a slight flow of air

when the vehicle is moving.

This position should not normally be

used.

Adjusting the distribution

of air in the passenger

compartment

Press one of the buttons 4 to select the

air distribution. The integrated warning

light in the button comes on.

It is possible to combine two positions

simultaneously – press both buttons 4.

The air flow is distributed be-

tween demisting air vents of

the front side-window and the wind-

screen demisting vents.

All the air flow is directed to the

dashboard vents.

The air flow is directed mainly

towards the footwells.

Rear screen de-icing/

demisting

Press button 9 – the integrated indica-

tor light comes on. This function en-

ables rapid demisting or de-icing of the

rear screen and de-icing of the door

mirrors (on equipped vehicles).

Recommendations

In the event of freezing, manu-

ally de-ice the windscreen using a

scraper rather than the de-icing/de-

misting function in order to reduce

your energy consumption.

To exit this function, press button 9

again. Demisting automatically stops.

3.7

Depending on the vehicle, the system

determines whether or not air recircula-

tion is used, based on the quality of the

outside air.

The air quality is confirmed by the ap-

pearance of one of the following warn-

ing lights on the multimedia display (for

the cleanest and the least clean air re-

spectively):

  .

AUTOMATIC AIR-CONDITIONING (4/4)

Air recirculation (isolation of

the passenger compartment)

This function is managed automatically

but you can also activate it manually. In

this case, the operation is confirmed by

a warning light on the button 8.

NB:

– during recirculation, air is taken from

the passenger compartment and

is recycled, with no air being taken

from outside the vehicle;

– air recirculation allows the external

atmosphere to be cut off (when driv-

ing in polluted areas, etc.);

– the recirculation of air makes it pos-

sible to reach the desired passenger

compartment temperature quicker.

Manual use

Press button 8 – the integrated indica-

tor light comes on.

Prolonged use of this position may lead

to odours, caused by non-renewal of

air, and the formation of condensation

on the windows.

We therefore advise you to return to au-

tomatic mode as soon as air recircula-

tion is no longer needed, by pressing

button 8.

Stopping the function manually

Press the button 8 to stop the function.

Air recirculation is then automatic.

The demisting/de-icing will still take

priority over the air recirculation.
