Passenger compartment air-flow distribution

AIR FLOW IN THE CONVEYOR ASSEMBLY AND HEATING-DISTRIBUTION UNIT

The flow of outside air (A) (see diagram below) is conveyed to the heating-distribution unit via the electric fan (1) and the regulation vent (2).

Depending on the position of the mixing vent (3) the air flow is either directed entirely to the distribution vents (4 and 5) or passes either partially or completely through the heating/cooling radiator and then on to the air distribution vents (4 and 5).

Depending on the position of the upper (4) and lower (5) vents the flow of air is conveyed to the various outlets in the passenger compartment.

1. Outside air flow
2. Air flow to the windscreen diffusers
3. Air flow to the front, central and side outlets
4. Air flow to the floor diffusers at the rear and front of the vehicle
5. Electric fan
6. Outside air flow regulation vent
7. Mixing vent
8. Upper air distribution vent
9. Lower air distribution vent
10. Heating/cooling radiator

PASSENGER COMPARTMENT AIR-FLOW DISTRIBUTION

The Ideograms identifying the various positions on the right hand knob on the control panel show to which of the various outlets and diffusers in the passenger compartment the air will be directed.

Each position of the right hand knob corresponds to a particular angle of the two air distribution vents. By rotating the knob clockwise to the various ideograms, the flow of air will be first directed to the floor in the front and rear of the vehicle, then to the windscreen and front side-window diffusers, and then to the front, central and side outlets, and then from the central outlets and to the floor outlets in the front and rear of the vehicle.
