Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning
In order for these systems to be fully effective,
follow the operation and maintenance
guidelines below:
F
If after an extended stop in sunshine,
the interior temperature is very high, first
ventilate the passenger compartment for
a few moments by opening the windows.
Put the air flow control at a setting high
enough to quickly change the air in the
passenger compartment.
F
The condensation created by the air
conditioning results in a discharge of
water under the vehicle which is perfectly
normal.
F
To ensure that the air is distributed evenly,
keep the external air intake grilles at the
base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the
vents, the air outlets and the air extractor
in the boot free from obstructions.
F
In normal conditions, use the intake
of exterior air as prolonged use of air
recirculation may cause misting of the
windscreen and side windows.
F
Operate the air conditioning system for 5
to 10 minutes, once or twice a month to
keep it in good working order.
The heating and air conditioning operate
using the energy supplied by the main
battery. Their use increases the vehicle's
consumption of electrical energy and
reduces its range.
Remember to switch off the heating or
air conditioning as soon as you judge it
to no longer be necessary.
Ventilation, heating, and air conditioning
can be activated during normal charging
of the vehicle when the ignition is set to
the ACC position.
During fast charging of the vehicle,
ventilation, heating, and air conditioning
cannot be activated.
F
Ensure that the passenger compartment
filter is in good condition and have the
filter elements replaced regularly.
F
To ensure correct operation of the air
conditioning system, you are also advised
to have it checked regularly.
F
If the system does not produce cold air,
do not use it and contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
