Manually Controlled





NOTE: Also with manually controlled A/C.

Control Panel For Air Distribution, Manual
- Temperature control is continuous. The fan control has five positions, zero and four speeds.

- The switch for the electrically-heated rear window is located under the fan control.

- The ventilation control has four ventilation choices and the continuous intermediate positions mix the two closest selections.





Control For Cars With A/C
- Cars with A/C have two push-buttons to the left of the control panel. One of these buttons is for A/C "on/off" and one is for recirculating cabin air.

- Recirculation is 100% and used when outside temperature is high in order to raise cooling capacity and when driving in queues or tunnels.

- If recirculation is used in damp weather, the air conditioning should also be switched on in order to prevent the build up of mist on the windscreen and windows. demisting is achieved by the humidity condensing on the cooling unit (evaporator) in the air conditioning unit. However, temperature may affect the way in which the A/C compressor works, and demisting does not always work. For this reason, during cold weather, recirculation may cause condensation on the windows despite A/C being on.

- The air recirculation flap is powered by an electric motor.
