AIR CONDITIONER CONTROLS
b
The air conditioner works only when the telescopic lift is started up. With the air conditioner
running, always work with the doors and windows closed.
In winter: To ensure the correct working and complete e cacy of the air conditioning system,
start up the compressor once a week, even if it is only for short periods, to allow lubrication of
the internal gaskets. At low temperatures: Heat the engine before starting up the
compressor to allow the coolant in the liquid state, collected at the bottom of the compressor
circuit, to get transformed into gas under the action of the heat given out by the engine; in the
liquid state the coolant can damage the compressor.
b
If the air conditioner is not working properly, have it checked by your dealer (see: 3 - MAINTENANCE:
F - EVERY 2000 HOURS OF OPERATION). Never attempt to repair faults yourself.
