Operation
of
the
heater
is

control

led

by
two
control
levers
located
on

the
instrument

panel
and
a
hand

op

erated
knob
on
the
center
of
the

heater
unit

The
AIR
LEVER
controls
the
air

intake
valve
and

or
room
valve

by
its

lever

positions
OFF
DEFROST
and

ROOM
through
the
control
cables

The
air
intake
valve
draws
the
fresh

outside
air

from
the
cowl

top
grille

and

supplies
the
air
into
the
heater

unit

The
room
valve
is

located
at
the

bottom
of
the

heater
unit
The
air

coming
through
the
air
intake
valve

opening
is

forced
through
the
heater

core
to
the
room

valve
where
the
air
is

distributed
to
the

floor
outlet
and
or

defroster
outlets

depending
on
the

position
of
the
room
valve

The

VENT
KNOB
is

directly
linked

to
the
vent
valve
which

provides
fresh

air

for
the

passenger
Push
the
knob
all

the

way
in

to

open
the
valve
The
fresh

ventilating
air

comes
out
of
the
heater

center
outlet

The
TEMP
lever
is
a

dual

pur

pose
control
one
is

for

regulating
the

flow
of

engine
coolant

flowing
into
Body
Electrical

System

the
heater
unit
and
the
other
for
the

operation
of
the

lever
is
in

the
OFF

position
the
water

cock
is

closed
and
the
circulation
of

engine
coolant

through
the
heater
core

stops
When
the
lever
is
slided
to

any

other

position
than
OFF
the
water
cock

opens
in

proportion
to
the

lever
