HEATING AND DEMISTING
The heating and demisting system is designed to provide heated fresh air
to the car interior at floor level and to the windshield for demisting and defrosting.
A valve controlling the flow of
hot
water through the heater unit is fitted at the
rear of the cylinder head. The valve is opened by turning in an anti-clockwise
direction when heating is required or shut off by turning clockwise when the
system is to be used for cool air ventilation.

Air is drawn in through a forw
ard
-facing intake, and the ram effect caused
by the car's motion will provide air for the heater's requirements at speeds
above 25 m.p.h. (40 km.p.h.). A blower
motor
is provided for use at lower
speeds or when a greater quantity of air is required. The blower is switched on
by turning the control marked '
R'
on the fascia in a clockwise direction.
A shut-off valve is incorporated in the air intake to prevent fumes entering the
car in traffic
and
is closed by pulling

the
knob
marked 'R '. The blower motor
must be switched off before the valve is closed
and
c
annot
be switched on again
until the valve is returned to the open position.
Two doors located forward, one at each side of the gearbox tunn el, control
distribution of air between screen and car interior. For heating open the doors.
