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, 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.
