Operating advice
The following procedures will enable you to gain maximum
benefit from the heating and ventilation system. However, because
the system uses heat from the engine to warm the air, full heating
will not be available until the engine reaches its normal operating
temperature.
To achieve maximum demisting/defrosting
• Select ‘windscreen’ on the air distribution control.
• Turn the air temperature control(s) to the RED segment.
• Turn the blower switch to ‘IV’.
To achieve maximum heating
• Turn the air distribution control to foot level vents.
• Turn the air temperature control(s) to the RED segment.
• Select ‘IV’ on the blower switch (increase as required).
To achieve maximum ventilation
• Turn the air distribution control to face level vents and ensure
the vents are open.
• Turn the air temperature control(s) to the BLUE segment.
• Select ‘IV’ on the blower switch (adjust as required).
• Switch on air conditioning (where fitted).
Heater bypass control
Air supply from the face level vents is further controlled by the
heater bypass control in the centre of the fascia panel.
The enables cooler air to be directed towards the face at those
times when the heater is required to provide hot air to keep the
interior of the car warm - particularly useful during winter. The
bypass is controlled by turning the thumbwheel:
• towards the BLUE spot to open the bypass.
• towards the WHITE spot to close the bypass.
If the air distribution control is set to foot, screen or window vents:
• Heater bypass closed - all air flow is prohibited.
• Heater bypass open - unheated (fresh) air supply only.
If the air distribution control is set to face or foot and face vents:
• Heater bypass closed - heated air supply (temperature as heater
setting).
• Heater bypass open - a blend of heated and unheated air (which
has bypassed the heater) providing a cooler output.
