General operation:
The UCH is involved in the following five functions (shared between several computers):
1/ Access-safety function
This function is divided into three sub-functions: Access, Protection and Starting.
2/ Air-conditioning function
This function is divided into three sub-functions, which are: User selection, Heating and Cold loop (see: 62A, Air
conditioning).
In this function, the UCH manages the triggering of the passenger compartment heating resistor control relays, as
well as the heated rear screen and air conditioning indicator lights.
3/ Wiping function
This function is divided into two sub-functions, which are: Wiper control and Wiper power.
4/ Lighting function
This function is divided into two sub-functions, which are: Lighting control and Lighting power.
5/ Tyre function
This function is divided into three sub-functions which are: Tyre reception, Tyre management and Tyre display.

1.4.3.7 Automatic gearbox computer (if fitted):
The computer informs the UCH of the selector position (park, neutral, etc.) via the multiplex network.
2 AIR CONDITIONING FUNCTION
The type of air conditioning control can be displayed by configuration reading LC013 Air conditioning type and
configured using command CF019 Air conditioning type (can be configured during configuration of the UCH
by the SC008 UCH type command).
2.1 Sub-function: USER SELECTION (Non-regulated air conditioning only)
The UCH receives the signal from the air conditioning panel via cable connection for the air conditioning request, for
electric heated rear screen and the signal for passenger compartment blower operation.
The UCH sends the request to the Protection and Switching Unit to start electric heated rear screen de-icing.
The UCH sends the request to the injection system to activate the air conditioning compressor.
The following statuses can be displayed:
–ET029 Air conditioning button.
–ET028 Heated rear screen button.
–ET015 Passenger compartment fan.
Operation of the indicator lights on the air conditioning and electric heated rear screen request buttons can be
checked using the following actuator commands:
AC015 Air conditioning button indicator and AC019 Heated rear screen indicator.
2.2 Sub-function: HEATING
The UCH manages the passenger compartment heating resistors (RCHs) by controlling power relays according to
the request for ventilation in the passenger compartment, the engine coolant temperature, the external temperature,
the electrical power balance, engine loading and, for the cabriolet version, if the roof is open.
The following statuses and parameters produced by the UCH can be displayed:
–PR001 Battery voltage.
–PR002 External temperature.
–ET015 Passenger compartment blower only with non-regulated air conditioning.
–ET017 Number of RCH*s required.
–ET018 Number of RCH*s authorised by alternator alternator charge rate.
–ET019 Number of RCH*s authorised by injection system.
–ET020 Number of RCH*s activated.
–ET021 RCH* 1 control.
–ET022 RCH* 2 control.
–ET031 Fast idle request for RCH.
–ET169 Engine.
–ET025 Retractable roof for cabriolet version only.
–ET026 Heated rear screen switch.
*RCH = Passenger Compartment Heating Resistors

Relay 1 controls a passenger compartment heating resistor unit consisting of one resistor.
Relay 2 controls a passenger compartment heating resistor unit consisting of two resistors.
Check the operation of the passenger compartment heating resistors using actuator commands:
AC016 RCH relay 1, AC017 RCH relay 2 and AC018 RCH relay 3.
The configuration can be displayed using LC030 Heating resistor types.
2.3 Sub-function: COLD LOOP
The UCH requests the injection to switch on the compressor via the multiplex network, depending on the external
temperature, the passenger compartment blower activation signal and whether the engine is in operation. The
following statuses and parameters can be displayed:
–ET030 Air conditioning request 2.
–ET169 Engine.
–ET015 Passenger compartment fan.
