Automatic mode
The automatic climate control system guarantees comfort in the passenger compartment and good visibility (except in the event of extreme conditions), whilst optimising consumption. The system controls the ventilation speed, air distribution, air recirculation, and starting and stopping the air conditioning and air temperature.
AUTO: optimises the selected comfort level according to exterior conditions. Press the button 8. The integrated indicator light on button 8 comes on.
Adjusting the ventilation fan speed
In automatic mode, the system uses the most suitable amount of air to reach and maintain the desired comfort level.
You can still adjust the ventilation speed by turning control 1 to increase or reduce the ventilation speed.
Adjusting the air temperature
Turn control 3 to obtain the desired temperature.
Special feature: the highest and lowest settings allow the system to produce maximum hot or cold temperature levels ("Lo" and "Hi").
tip
The displayed temperature values show a comfort level.
When the vehicle is started, increasing or decreasing the value displayed does not mean that the temperature reaches comfort level more quickly. The system still optimises the decrease or the increase in temperature (the ventilation will not start at maximum speed immediately: it increases gradually). It may take from a few seconds to several minutes.
Generally speaking, unless there is a particular fault, the dashboard air vents should remain open.
"Clear View" function
Press button 2, the indicator light above comes on.
This function quickly demists and de-ices the windscreen, the rear screen, the front side windows, and the exterior rear view mirrors (depending on the vehicle). It automatically activates the air conditioning and rear screen de-icing functions.
Press button 2 to stop the heated rear screen operating. The indicator light above goes out.
To exit this function, press button 2 or 8 or adjust the ventilation speed by turning control 1.
Adjusting the distribution of air in the passenger compartment
Turn the 5 control according to the distribution of air required. The integrated warning light in the button comes on.
It is possible to combine two positions at the same time.
-
The air flow is then directed to the windscreen and front side window demisting vents.
-
The air flow is distributed between front side window demisting vents, the windscreen demisting vents and the footwells.
-
The air flow is directed mainly towards the footwells.
-
The air flow is directed towards the dashboard vents and the footwells.
-
The air flow is directed to the dashboard vents.
Switching the air conditioning on or off
In automatic mode, the system switches the air conditioning system on or off, depending on the climate conditions.
Press switch 4 to force activation (the warning light above comes on) or stop the air conditioning (the warning light above goes out).
tip
Some buttons have an operating light indicating their operative state.
Rear screen de-icing and demisting
Press button 10, the indicator light above comes on. This function enables rapid demisting or de-icing of the rear screen and de-icing of the rear view mirrors (on equipped vehicles).
To exit this function, press button 10 again. Demisting automatically stops.
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 above button 7.
tip
Demisting/de-icing will still take priority over the air recirculation.
Note:
- during recirculation, air is taken from the passenger compartment and is recycled without any air being taken from outside the vehicle;
- air recirculation allows the passenger compartment to be isolated from the external atmosphere (useful when driving in polluted areas, etc.);
- to bring the passenger compartment to the desired temperature as quickly as possible.
Manual use
Press button 7, the indicator light above 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 automatic mode as soon as air recirculation is no longer needed, by pressing button 7.
To exit this function, press the button 7 again.
Stopping the system
Turn the control 1 to "OFF" to stop the system. To start it, turn the control 1 again to adjust the blower speed or press button 8.
tip
Fuel consumption increases when the air conditioning is being used (switch it off when it is not required).
