Adjusting automatic mode
The automatic mode is the system’s
normal operating mode (AUTO light on)
but you may alter the selections made
by the system (air distribution, etc.).
These options are explained on the fol-
lowing pages.
AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL (3/8)
This is the recommended mode
of use: the automatic heating and
air conditioning system guarantees
comfort (except in the event of ex-
treme conditions) in the passenger
compartment and good visibility
while optimising consumption.
Return to automatic mode as
soon as possible.
Ambient temperature:
automatic mode (continued)
Operation
To reach and keep the chosen comfort
level and to maintain good visibility, the
system controls:
– ventilation speed;
– air distribution;
– air recirculation management;
– air conditioning start/stop;
– the air temperature.
The displayed temperature values
show a comfort level.
When starting the engine, increasing
or decreasing the value displayed
will not allow the comfort level to
be reached any more quickly. The
system will always optimise the tem-
perature increase or decrease (the
ventilation system does not start in-
stantly at maximum speed: it gradu-
ally increases). This may take several
minutes.
Generally speaking, unless there
is a particular reason not to, the
dashboard air vents should remain
open.
