conditioning (where fitted)
Operation
• Start
the
engine.
• Turn knob I (TEMP) clockwise
to
adjust
the

the
cab.
• Turn knob 2 (AIR) clockwise
to
select
the
desired degree
of
ventilation (three positions
available).
•
Place
the
heating unit

per
central figure: switch 3
OFF;
lever 4 wholly on
the
left; levers
5
in
central position.
• Make sure
that
all
air inlets and windows are closed.
• Adjust air inlets (figure below)
so
that

fiow
is
not

the
persons inside
the
cab.

Practical hints
•
When
travelling
in
heavy traffic condition, keep knob I (TEMP) on max position; when
running at fast speed
turn
it
counterclockwise by
90°
approximately
In
the
event
of
a prolonged stop
under
the
sun,
put
the
air conditioner
on
maximum
position (AIR and TEMP) and ventilate
the
cab by opening
the
windows
for
a few
minutes. ,
•
If
water
leakages
from
under
the
vehicle are noticed, these are due
to
normal condensate
drain caused by
the
de-humidifying effect
of
the
air conditioner.
•
We
recommend
that
the
unit be serviced atleast once ayear by
an
authorized workshop
to
ensure efficiency and long life.
Remember:
it
is
important
to
switch on
the
air conditioneronce
ortwice
a
week
during the
cold season and have
the
compressor run
for
a few minutes.
This
way,
the
oil
splash
guard
ofthe
compressorand the mechanical components
of
the
circuit
will remain adequately lubricated thus preventing possible damage
that
would
cause
coolant
leaks.
