(1) Boxer 1.6 e 1.7 16 v, T.SPARK - (2) Boxer 1.3
(* You are reminded that compressor operation is cut off by the system logic under the following conditions:
coolant fluid pressure > 28 bar appr.;
coolant fluid pressure < 2.5 bar appr. (circuit drained);
engine temperature > 111°C (only TD);
full load (temporary cutoff for appr. 8 sec. with engine rpm over 2000 rpm). (only TD).
This operation is also determined by the logic of the ignition/injection control unit (only petrol) (refer to the corresponding sections).
