12:11 Heating and ventilation
The roof is
one
of the
best
ventilation
means
the 404
owner
has.
lt can be
fully
opened at high speeds with no
draught
to
bother
front seat
passengers
at all.
This is even
possible
in winter due to a heater
unit
which is very
efficient. In very
cold conditions the heater can be used
as a
recirculating heater
and on milder days
it
can be used
as
a
fresh
air unit. The
air intake is
under the
windscreen
where it
draws
in
pure
air ratheÍ than
exhaust fumes.
Air
vents
are
Íitted
at each
side oÍ the facia
panel
so that each
Íront
seat
occupant can control
his own
supply oÍ fresh
air. These
are completely
separate from the
central heater-
ventilator
system and a type
of replacement for
side
wrndow
ventilators.
The
heater unit is
a Sofica Climatizer
and allows
all
combinations
of
heating,
demisting,
deÍrosting
and
ventilation. The
unit which
consists
oÍ a bakelite casing
containing
a
radiator
and
an electrical motor and turbine,
can
be seen in
section
in FIG
12:15. This
diagram

the
air flow through
the unit for
different shutter
positions.
