HEATING AND VENTILATION
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 80-3
Description
General
The heating and ventilation system controls the temperature and distribution of air supplied to the vehicle interior. The
system consists of an air inlet duct, heater assembly, distribution ducts and a control panel. An outlet vent is
incorporated at the rear of the cabin. Some diesel models also incorporate a fuel burning heater (FBH) system in the
engine coolant supply to the heater assembly.
Fresh or recirculated air flows into the heater assembly from the inlet duct. An electrical variable speed blower in the
inlet duct, and/or ram effect, forces the air through the system. Depending on the settings on the control panel, the air
is then heated and supplied through the distribution ducts to fascia and floor level outlets.

The heater assembly heats and distributes air as directed by selections made on the control panel. The assembly is
installed on the vehicle centre-line, between the fascia and the engine bulkhead. The heater assembly consists of a
casing, formed from a series of plastic moldings, which contains a heater matrix and control flaps. Internal passages
integrated into the casing guide the air through the casing and separate it into two flows, one for the LH outlets and
one for the RH outlets. Two drain outlets at the bottom of the casing connect to overboard drain tubes installed in the
sides of the transmission tunnel.
Heater matrix
The heater matrix provides the heat source to warm the air being supplied to the distribution outlets. The heater matrix
is an aluminium two pass, fin and tube heat exchanger, installed in the RH side of the casing. Two aluminium tubes
attached to the heater matrix extend through the engine bulkhead to connect the heater assembly to the engine
coolant system. When the engine is running, coolant is constantly circulated through the heater matrix by the engine
coolant pump. On diesel models, the coolant flow is assisted by an electric pump while the FBH system is active.

HEATING AND VENTILATION
80-8DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Control panel
The controls for heating and ventilation are installed on a control panel in the centre of the fascia, below the radio.
Three rotary knobs control the LH and RH outlet temperatures and distribution. A slider switch controls blower speed.
A latching pushswitch controls the selection of fresh/recirculated air; an amber LED in the switch illuminates when
recirculated air is selected.
Graphics on the panel and the controls indicate the function and operating positions of the controls.
Outlet vent
The outlet vent promotes the free flow of heating and ventilation air through the cabin. The outlet vent is installed in
the RH rear quarter body panel and vents cabin air into the sheltered area between the rear quarter body panel and
the outer body side panel. The vent consists of a grille covered by soft rubber flaps and is effectively a non-return
valve. The flap opens and closes automatically depending on the differential between cabin and outside air pressures.
FBH system (diesel models only)
The FBH system is an auxiliary heating system that compensates for the relatively low coolant temperatures inherent
in the diesel engine. At low ambient temperatures, the FBH system heats the coolant supply to the heater assembly,
and maintains it within the temperature range required for good in-car heating performance. Operation is fully
automatic, with no intervention required by the driver.
The system consists of an air temperature sensor, a FBH fuel pump and a FBH unit. Fuel for the FBH system is taken
from the fuel tank, through a line attached to the fuel tank's fuel pump, and supplied via the FBH fuel pump to the FBH
unit. The connection on the fuel tank's fuel pump incorporates a tube which extends down into the tank. At the FBH
unit connection, the fuel line incorporates a self-sealing, quick disconnect coupling. In the FBH unit, the fuel delivered
by the FBH fuel pump is burned and the resultant heat output is used to heat the coolant. An ECU integrated into the
FBH unit controls the operation of the system at one of two heat output levels, 2.5 kW at part load and 5 kW at full load
Ambient temperature sensor
The ambient temperature sensor controls a power supply from the alternator to the FBH unit. The sensor is installed
on the RH support strut of the bonnet closing panel and contains a temperature sensitive switch that is closed at
temperatures below 5 °C (41 °F) and open at temperatures of 5 °C (41 °F) and above.

The FBH unit consists of:
lA circulation pump.
lA combustion air fan.
lA burner housing.
lAn ECU/heat exchanger.
lAn air inlet hose.
lAn exhaust pipe.
Circulation pump. The circulation pump is installed at the coolant inlet to the FBH unit to assist the coolant flow through
the FBH unit and the heater assembly. The pump runs continuously while the FBH unit is in standby or active
operating modes. While the FBH unit is inactive, coolant flow is reliant on the engine coolant pump.
Combustion air fan. The combustion air fan regulates the flow of air into the unit to support combustion of the fuel
supplied by the FBH pump. It also supplies the air required to purge and cool the FBH unit. Ambient air is supplied to
the combustion air fan through an air inlet hose containing a sound deadening foam ring.
