1.1.25. Heating and ventilation

GENERAL INFORMATION

On the car there are 4 regulators of operating modes of system of ventilation and heating which allow to provide the most comfortable conditions.


1. Temperature regulator
2. Air consumption regulator
3. The regulator of distribution of air on salon
4. Forced ventilation regulator

Temperature regulator

The regulator of temperature allows to establish desirable air temperature:

 – a blue zone – air temperature;
 – a red zone – air heating.

The regulator of distribution of air on salon

Air goes only on having blown in a windshield (thawing and removal of condensate).

Part of air goes on having blown in a windshield (thawing and removal of condensate), and other part comes to salon through the central and side ventilating grates, and also through openings of air ducts in zones of an arrangement of legs of forward and back passengers.

Air comes to salon through the central and side ventilating grates, and also through openings of air ducts in zones of an arrangement of legs of forward and back passengers.

All air comes to salon only through the central and side ventilating grates.

Through the central and side ventilating grates there passes the constant stream of air which depends on the included operating mode of the fan.

Forced ventilation regulator


The forced ventilation mode (extreme right position of the button of the regulator) – the main operating mode of system of ventilation.

The air recirculation mode (the indicator burns). Joins in extreme left position of the button of the regulator. This mode has to be used only in the following cases:

 – for temporary isolation of salon from external air (for example, in the presence of unpleasant external smells or dust);
 – for bystry warming up of air in salon.

At inclusion of the mode of recirculation of air in some conditions fogging of glasses can be observed. As soon as possible it is necessary to return to the forced ventilation mode.
