Air supply to the windshield and side windows (to remove condensation and frost).
To quickly remove frost and condensation from the windshield and side windows, do the following:
Figure 1.51. Heater control panel: 1 - air distribution handle for the cabin; 2 - air recirculation button; 3 - rear window defroster switch; 4 - air temperature control knob; 5 - air flow rate adjustment handle
- install the air recirculation button 2 (figure 1.51) into the cabin in the "Outside air" position (when button 2 is released, the signal lamp does not light);
- set the temperature and incoming air speed controls to the maximum position;
- close the central and side ventilation grilles.
By pressing button 2, the air recirculation mode in the passenger compartment is activated, and the indicator lamp lights up. The recirculation mode allows you to isolate the interior from unpleasant odors and smoke from the outside.
As soon as possible, to prevent the windows from fogging up and the atmosphere inside the car from getting worse, set button 2 to the outside air supply position. When recirculation is switched off, the indicator lamp goes out.
Control knob 4 allows you to set the desired air temperature in the cabin.
The temperature increases gradually when you turn the knob clockwise.
Turn control knob 5 from position "1" to position "4" to ensure sufficient air enters the passenger compartment to provide the required comfort.
The rear window and outside mirror heaters are activated by a single button and operate only when the engine is running.
The electric heaters are designed to turn off automatically after approximately 12 minutes. Pressing the button again turns the heaters on for 12 minutes.
You can force the electric heaters to turn off before 12 minutes have passed by pressing the button again.
