Air
conditioner*
in cab

Description

T".e air conditioner is a combined cooling srd heating system which provides the
r-aximum possible comfort all the year
rcjnd.

Tpe air conditioner works only when the en-

pie
is running and the ambient tempera- t.re is above about + 5 degrees C.
,ien air conditioner is switched on it re-
bjces not only the temperature inside the
•
ehicle but also the air humidity. When the

=-nbient
air humidity is high this not only
Iakes
the vehicle occupants feel more
comfortable but also prevents the windows
""Dm
misting up.
~ne cooling system works best when all the
v.indows are closed.
