COMFORT
VENTILATION
System which creates and maintains
comfortable conditions in the vehicle's
passenger compartment.
Air intake
The air circulating in the passenger com-
partment is fi ltered and originates either
from the outside via the grille located at
the base of the windscreen or from the
inside in air recirculation mode.
Air treatment
The incoming air follows various routes
depending on the controls selected by
the driver:
- direct arrival in the passenger com-
partment (air intake),
- passage through a heating circuit
(heating),
- passage through a cooling circuit
(air conditioning).
The temperature control enables you to
obtain the level of comfort required by
mixing the air of the various circuits.
The air distribution control enables you
to diffuse the air in the passenger compartment combining several air vents.
The air fl ow control enables you to in-
crease or reduce the speed of the ventilation blower.
Control panel
The controls of this system are grouped
together on control panel A on the cen-
tre console. Depending on the model,
the functions offered are:
- level of comfort required,
- air fl ow,
- air distribution,
- demisting and defrosting,
- manual or automatic air conditioning
controls.

COMFORT
In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and
maintenance guidelines below:
To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior
air intake grilles located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles,
the vents and the air outlets, as well as the air extractor located in the
boot.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is
used for regulation of the air conditioning system.
Operate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a
month to keep it in perfect working order.
Ensure that the passenger compartment fi lter is in good condition and have
the fi lter elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks" section).
We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment fi lter.
Thanks to its special active additive, it contributes to the purifi cation of the air
breathed by the occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compartment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).
To guarantee correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are
also advised to have it checked regularly.
If the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a
CITROËN dealer.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures,
switching off the air conditioning permits the recovery of engine power and
therefore improvement of the towing capacity.
If after an extended stop in sunshine, the interior temperature is
very high, fi rst ventilate the cabin
for a few moments.
Put the air fl ow control at a set-
ting high enough to quickly
change the air in the cabin.
The air conditioning system
does not contain chlorine and
does not present any danger to
the ozone layer.
The condensation created by
the air conditioning results in a
discharge of water under the
vehicle which is perfectly normal.

CITROËN recommends that
children should travel in the rear
seats of your vehicle:
- "rearwards-facing" up to the
age of 2,
- "forwards-facing" over the
age of 2.
* The rules for transporting children are
specifi c to each country. Refer to the
current legislation in your country.
TO CHILD SEATS
Although one of CITROËN's main cri-
teria when designing your vehicle, the
safety of your children also depends on
you.
For maximum safety, please follow
these precautions:
- in accordance with European regula-
tions, all children under the age of
12 or less than one and a half metres tall must travel in approved
child seats suited to their weight ,
on seats fi tted with a seat belt or
ISOFIX mountings * ,
- statistically, the safest seats in
your vehicle for the transportation
of children are the rear seats,
- a child weighing less than 9 kg
must travel in the "rearwardsfacing" position both in the front
and in the rear.
INSTALLING A CHILD SEAT
USING A THREE POINT SEAT
BELT
"Rearwards-facing"
When a "rearwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat ,
it is essential that the passenger airbag
is deactivated. Otherwise, the child
would risk being seriously injured or
killed if the airbag were to infl ate.
"Forwards-facing"
When a "forwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat ,
adjust the vehicle's seat to the interme-
diate longitudinal position with the seat
back upright and leave the passenger
airbag activated.

ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS
The incorrect installation of a child
seat in a vehicle compromises the
child's protection in the event of an
accident.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or
the child seat harnesses keeping the
slack relative to the child's body to a
minimum, even for short journeys.
When installing a child seat using the
seat belt, ensure that the seat belt is
tightened correctly on the child seat
and that it secures the child seat fi rmly
on the seat of your vehicle.
For optimum installation of the "for-
wards-facing" child seat, ensure that
the back of the child seat is in contact
with the back of the vehicle's seat
and that the head restraint does not
cause any discomfort.
If the head restraint has to be removed,
ensure that it is stored or attached se-
curely to prevent it from being thrown
around the vehicle in the event of
sharp braking.
As a safety precaution, do not leave:
- one or more children alone and
unsupervised in a vehicle,
- a child or an animal in a vehicle
which is exposed to the sun, with
the windows closed,
- the keys within reach of children
inside the vehicle.
To prevent accidental opening of the
doors and rear windows, use the
"Child lock".
Take care not to open the rear win-
dows by more than one third.
To protect young children from the
rays of the sun, fi t side blinds on the
rear windows.
Children under the age of 10 must
not travel in the "forwards-facing"
position on the front passenger seat,
unless the rear seats are already oc-
cupied by other children, cannot be
used or are absent.
Deactivate the passenger airbag
when a "rearwards-facing" child seat
is installed on the front seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag
were to infl ate.
Installing a booster seat
The chest part of the seat belt must
be positioned on the child's shoulder
without touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat
belt passes correctly over the child's
thighs.
CITROËN recommends the use of a
booster seat which has a back, fi tted
with a seat belt guide at shoulder level.

Your vehicle has been approved in accor-
dance with the new ISOFIX regulation .
The seats, represented below, are fi tted
with regulation ISOFIX mountings:
These are three rings for each seat:
- two rings A , located between the
vehicle seat back and cushion, indicated by a label,
This ISOFIX mounting system guarantees you fast, reliable and safe fi tting of
the child seat in your vehicle.
The ISOFIX child seats are fi tted with
two locks which are secured easily on
the two rings A .
Some also have an upper strap which
is attached to ring B .
To attach this strap, raise the vehicle
seat's head restraint then pass the hook
between its rods. Then fi x the hook on
ring B and tighten the upper strap.
- a ring B , behind the seat, referred to
as the TOP TETHER for fi xing the
upper strap.
The incorrect installation of a
child seat in a vehicle compromises the child's protection in
the event of an accident.
For information regarding the ISOFIX
child seats which can be installed in your
