DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION HEATING AND VENTILATION SYSTEM
Description
The heating and ventilation system is standard on all
models. Air conditioning is an optional system which
provides fully integrated climate control for the vehicle
interior.The heater assembly, comprising a matrix housed in a
distribution unit and a variable speed blower motor, is
located on one side of the engine compartment and
attached directly to the fascia bulkhead.
The heating controls are positioned on the outside of
the instrument binnacle and cable linked to
mechanical flaps in the distribution unit.

80HEATING AND VENTILATION

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION HEATER OPERATION
The heater matrix (3), located in the distribution unit
(1), see J6341, is connected to the engine cooling
system. As water is circulated continuously through
the matrix, a selection of heated or ambient air is
controlled by two flaps within the distribution unit. The
temperature flap (12) controls the amount of ambient
air to the heater matrix, air being suppliedthrough a ducted vent on top of the vehicle front wing
to the blower motor (volute) housing (4). The blower
motor (10) can be used to boost the air flow into the
distribution unit. The air flap (13) controls the supply of
heated or ambient air from the heater unit into a
plenum chamber integeral with the vehicle fascia. Two
flaps in the plenum chamber (heater duct) distribute
the air flow to either the footwell vents or windscreen
demister vents as shown.
HEATER CONTROLS
1. Temperature control
Move the lever downwards to increase air
temperature or up to decrease air temperature.
2. Air distribution control
Lever fully up - windscreen vents only.
Lever midway - footwell and windscreen vents.
Lever fully down - footwell vents.3. Blower motor fan speed control
Move the lever progressively downwards to increase
fan speed. With the control at '0' the fan is switched
off and the volume of air entering the passenger
compartment is solely dependent on ram air when the
vehicle is moving.
