IMPORTANTThe manual climate
control system is very useful for
speeding up the demising process be-
cause it dries the air. Simply adjust the
controls for the demisting function
(see previous section) and switch the
manual climate control system on by
pressing knob A-fig. 78. The system uses refrig-
erating fluid R134a which
will not pollute the envi-
ronment if it accidentally leaks.
Under no circumstances should
fluid R12 be used as this is in-
compatible with the system’s
component parts.
