Information on putting the air conditioning into operation
When cooling, as well as when heating, the air conditioning system
supplies dehumidified and purified air to the cabin.
In order to achieve best air conditioning results:
• Before putting into operation, ventilate the cabin thoroughly.
• Close the windows and doors.
• Set the fan to maximum output first, and then adjust it to your needs.
• In order to prevent condensation water from forming on the condenser,
switch off the air conditioning system in due time
before the end of work.
Observe the following points in order to avoid malfunctions, loss of
refrigerant and drying-out of the seals:
► Run the air conditioning system at least once a month.
► Clean the heat exchanger (condenser) regularly. Daily in dusty or dirty
work conditions
– see chapter 7 “Air conditioning (opt) (currently not available)” on
page 7-81.
► Have the air conditioning checked at least once a year by an
authorized service center.
► Repair, maintenance and filling with refrigerant must be performed by
trained personnel and an authorized service center.
The air conditioning system runs on electricity and is supplied with power
by the battery. The higher the performance of the air conditioning system,
the higher the energy consumption. This means that with increasing
system output, the operating time of the battery diminishes accordingly.
The performance of the air conditioning system is therefore limited.
When outside temperatures are very high, we recommend:
– parking the machine when it is not being used out of the sun and
– to observe the instructions for how to operate the air conditioning.
