Heater and ventilation system
Switch for fresh-air fan
Pushed right in - closed
Interco. pos. - full output
Fully out - half output
Air-flow
AIR _ Air to front seat floor
DEFR = Air to windscreen
and to rear seat floor
Sliding control for air temp.
This control is used to regulate the
temperature of the incoming air.
The heating and ventilation system of the car is operated as shown above.
Air is sucked in by the fan and then passes through a heater element
to a distributing chamber where it is distributed to the floor and wind-
screen by means of the controls. NOTE: During normal condition there
is
sufficient air-flow due to the fact of the overpressure at the air inlet
of the vehicle. If greater quantities of air are required, use the fan.
The heater element is connected with a thermostat which keeps the tem-
perature constant.
When the temperature control is moved, there will be
a slight delay before the heater element adjusts itself to the desired
temperature.
The figure shows the air duct to the
rear seat and the air distribution in the
vehicle
when both the "AIR" and
"DEFR" controls are used.
Misting on the windows
During cold or damp weather mist can
easily form on the windows, particu-
larly
with a full number of passengers.
The best way of getting rid of this or
to avoid it altogether is to open the
ventilation windows partly or fully and
to set the fan and defroster controls
at max. output.
