14.4 TEMPERATURE CONTROL
14.4.1 Coolant Circuit
The main coolant system supplies liquid at engine temperature to the heater matrix to provide heat to the vehicle
interior. Unlike previous air blend / constant matrix temperature systems, in-car temperature is now controlled by
mixing recirculated coolant in the heater circuit with engine-temperature coolant. Matrix temperature is controlled
by a valve which opens to raise temperature (admit engine coolant) and closes to reduce it (recirculates coolant within
the circuit). The coolant flow valve operates on a six (6) second 'duty cycle', during which it may be open for whatever
period thecontrol system dictates. FACEvent airtemperature of howeveriscontrolled bythe'cool air by-passdamper'
which allows incoming air to flow around the top of the the heater matrix and thus remain unheated.
Because the engine coolant pump is driven proportionally to engine speed, the coolant delivery rate changes with
engine revolutions thus causing temperature variations. To stabilize the flow through the matrix, and thus the
temperature, an electrically driven circulation pump has been introduced into the system.

14.7 AIR DlSTRlBUTlON
(Refer to illustrations on this and next page)
Air is drawn from the plenum chamber into the heater/cooler case at the lower front right and left hand sides. All air must first pass through the evaporator (not fitted to heater only cars) and then through the heater matrix for in-car distribution.
When cooler air than that available from the other outlets is desired at the FACE vents, air by
-passes the matrix via
the 'cool air by-pass damper' within the range cold to hot.
The flaps for FOOT, COOL AIR, CENTRE VENT, RH & LH RECIRCULATION and DEFROST are electrically driven by indi- vidual motor / potentiometer units.

w: In ambient temperatures below Oo C, the system may log fault code 23 because the low ambient causes a tem-
porary low gas pressure. Where the ambient temperature rise above 40" C, and if the engine is close to over- heating, feed to the compressor clutch may be cut and code 23 registered.*
