2. Air-mix door control wire
a. Set TEMP lever at MAX—COLD position.
b. Connect the control wire and clamp it with the
shutter lever on the heater unit all the way to the
right side.
Caution
Move the temperature control lever to check
that the wire is secured. Also, check that it
moves the full stroke between HOT and COLD.
