132 Climate Controls
O:Use this position to prevent
dusty or otherwise contaminated
outside air from entering the cab,
such as in a tunnel or in congested
traffic.
Extended use of the inside air
recirculation position causes the
windshield and windows to fog up
easily, making visibility poor. For
good ventilation, switch to outside
air as soon as possible.
Temperature Control Knob : Use
this knob to select the preferred cab
interior temperature. Turn the knob
counterclockwise to lower the outlet
air temperature and clockwise to
raise it.
Fan Speed Control Knob : The fan
speed can be adjusted to any of the
four speeds available.
Air Conditioning (A/C) Switch :
Press this switch to use the air
conditioning system. The indicator
light inside the switch will come on
to show that the air conditioning
system is in operation. The air
conditioning system can also be
used for dehumidifying while the heater is being used. To turn off the
air conditioning, push this switch in
again.
When the defrost mode is selected,
the air conditioner compressor will
be on.
Even if the A/C switch is turned on,
the air conditioning system will not
operate when the fan speed control
knob is placed in the stop position.
Make sure that the fan speed
control knob is in a position other
than the stop position.
Even in seasons when the air
conditioning system is not used,
occasionally operate the system for
a few minutes with the engine
running at a low speed in order to
keep the system's components
lubricated.
Ventilation
Outside Air Ventilation :
Press the
A/C switch to the off position. Turn
the outlet selector knob to the
preferred position. Move the air
selector lever to the
Pposition. Set the temperature control knob to
the desired position. Adjust the fan
speed control knob to the preferred
speed.
How to Use the Heater
Normal Heating :
Set the outlet
selector knob to the
6or-
position. Use the-position for
warming your feet while defogging
the windshield.
Set the air selector lever to the
P
position. Adjust the temperature
control knob and the fan speed
control knob to the desired
positions.
To dehumidify the cab interior while
heating, press the A/C switch to the
on position.
As the heater uses the heat from
the engine coolant, its heating effect
is weak when the engine coolant
temperature is low.
Maximum Heating : Turn the outlet
selector knob to the
6position, set
the air selector lever to the
O

position, and turn the temperature
control knob fully towards the high
temperature direction.
Set the fan speed control knob to
the maximum speed position.
Bi-Level Heating :Set the outlet
selector knob to the
)position. Set
the air selector lever to the
P
position. Set the temperature control
knob to the middle position.
Adjust the fan speed control knob
as desired. The air from the floor
outlets is warmer than the air from
the upper outlets in this position.
However, when the temperature
control knob is moved to either the
full hot or the full cold position, the
air from the floor outlets and the air
from the upper outlets will be the
same temperature. This position can
give cool upper level air and warm
floor level air when the temperature
control is adjusted in between cold
and hot. This is useful in cool
weather with bright sunlight
conditions. Defogging and Defrosting the
Windshield
Defogging :
Set the outlet selector
knob to the
1position. Set the air
selector lever to the
Pposition.
Turn the temperature control knob
to a high-temperature position
according to your preference. For
defogging in the summer months,
set the temperature control knob to
any desired position.
Set the fan speed control knob to
any speed position, except the off
position. The A/C compressor
automatically operates when the
1
position is selected. Defogging is
performed very effectively with the
dehumidifying effect.
Defrosting : Set the outlet selector
knob to the
1position. Set the air
selector lever to the
Oposition.
Turn the temperature control knob
fully towards the high-temperature
direction. Set the fan speed control
knob to the maximum speed
position. After defrosting, be certain to return
the air selector lever to the
P
position. Failure to do so will cause
the windshield to fog up, impeding
forward visibility.
Cooling
Normal/Moderate Cooling :
This
setting is suitable for extended
periods of cooling or moderate
cooling. Press the A/C switch to the
on position.
Set the outlet selector knob to the
Hposition for normal cooling or set

Turn the temperature control knob
fully towards the low-temperature
direction. Set the fan speed control
knob to the maximum speed
position.
After prolonged parking in direct
sunlight, open the windows or doors
to ventilate the interior of the cab
and release the heat.
During cooling operation, mist may
come out of the air outlets. This
results from quick cooling of humid
air, and does not indicate any
problem.
After maximum cooling, be certain
to return the air selector lever to the
Pposition. Failure to do so will
cause the windshield to fog up,
impeding forward visibility.
