1.11. Interior ventilation and heating controls
The interior ventilation and heating controls are shown in fig. 1.11.
Outside air can enter the passenger compartment through the door windows with the windows down and the gap between the hood and the windshield.
Air flow in the cabin is distributed through air ducts located inside the instrument panel. By moving the lever 2, the air flow is directed both to the zone of the legs of the driver and passengers, and through the central 8 and 7 side nozzles into the car interior. By turning the guide vanes of the central and side nozzles with levers 9 and 11, the direction of the air flow is changed.
To heat the incoming air, move lever 3 to control the heater valve to the right. If necessary, switch 1 of the electric fan can increase the amount of air entering the passenger compartment. By moving lever 4, the intensity of blowing the windshield through the upper slots on the instrument panel and the windows of the front doors through nozzles 5 is regulated. To achieve maximum air flow, close the flaps of the side and central nozzles with levers 10 and 12 and move lever 2 to the right, and lever 4 to the left.
To protect the rear window from fogging and ice, switch on the rear window heating mode with switch 6.
