Recommendations for ventilation and
air conditioning
In order
f
or these s

stems to be
f
ull
y
e
ff
ective,
f
ollow the operation and maintenance
guidelines below:
)
To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake
g
rilles
located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as well
as
th
e

Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for re
g

O
perate the air conditionin

)
Ensure that the passen
g

f
ilter is in
g
ood condition and have the
f
ilte
r
e

We recommend the use o
f
a combined passen
g
er compartment
f
ilter. Thanks to its
s
pecial active additive, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed b
y
the
o
ccupants and the cleanliness of the passen
g
er compartment
(
reduction of aller
g
ic
sy
mptoms, bad odours and
g
reas
y
deposits
)
.
)
To ensure correct operation of the air conditionin
g
s
y
stem,
y
ou are also advised to
h
ave it checked re
g
ularl

If the s
