Operating tips for heater and air conditioner
J Cleaning ventilator grille
HS0083
Ventilator inlet grille
Always keep the front ventilator inlet grille free of snow, leaves, or other
obstructions to ensure efficient heating and defrosting. Since the con-
denser is located in front of the radiator, this area should be kept clean
because cooling performance is impaired by any accumulation of in-
sects and leaves on the condenser.
J Efficient cooling after parking in direct sunlight
After parking in direct sunlight, drive with the windows open for a few min-
utes to allow outside air to circulate into the heated interior. This results in
quicker cooling by the air conditioner. Keep the windows closed during
the operation of the air conditioner for maximum cooling efficiency.
J Lubrication oil circulation in the refrigerant circuit
Operate the air conditioner compressor at a low engine speed (at idle or
low driving speeds) a few minutes each month during the off-season to
circulate its oil.
