1A-2 HEATER AND VENTILATION
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The heater, an in and out air selectable-type hot water heater, is so constructed that it is possible to assure an
agreeable ventilation at all times by providing the ventilator air outlets at the center and both sides (right and left)
of the instrument panel, the hot air outlet at a place close to the feet of front passengers, and the defroster air outlets
at places, right and left, along the windshield glass.
The heater and ventilation consist of following parts.
