The temperature control and air distribution dampers are controlled by two drive cables. All cars have an air recirculation function, the damper of which is controlled by a servomotor.
Air is supplied to the windshield and side windows regardless of the air distribution setting.
In most countries, an air filter is installed as standard equipment on vehicles. This filter cleans the incoming fresh air from dust and dirt particles. The filter element should be replaced under normal operating conditions every 40,000 km and under severe operating conditions every 20,000 km. In the absence of an air purification filter, a plastic grille is installed above the air intake opening. This grille can be easily replaced with an air purification filter.
Air distribution control switch
At the level of the face
The main air flow enters the passenger compartment at face level.
At face level/at floor level
The main air flow enters the passenger compartment in equal parts at face level and at floor level, and a small amount of air is directed to the deflectors that prevent fogging of the side windows.
At floor level
The main flow of air enters the passenger compartment at floor level, and a small amount of air is directed to the deflectors that prevent fogging of the side windows.
Anti-fogging/floor level
The main air flow enters the passenger compartment in equal parts in the windshield area and at floor level, and a smaller amount is directed to the deflectors that prevent side windows from fogging up.
Fog Prevention
The main air flow enters the passenger compartment in the windshield area, and a small amount of air is directed to the deflectors that prevent side windows from fogging up.

Air distribution drive cables
NOTE: Bowden cables for left hand drive and right hand drive vehicles are identical. However, they are connected to the air damper drive mechanism respectively from opposite sides.
The air distribution switch performs its function with two Bowden cables. The cables control the air distribution valves in the heater housing.
To remove and install the cables, turn the rotary switch all the way to the left. In this position, the choke mechanism engages easily, making it easier to install the cables.
Removing the dust filter
1.
NOTE: The dust filter is located on the passenger side.
NOTE: Bring the glass cleaners to a vertical position.
NOTE: Removing the hood air grille will destroy the gasket.
Disconnect the hood air grille section located on the passenger side (Shown is a right-hand drive vehicle).
- 1. Unfasten the two clips.
- 2. Remove the cover, unscrew and remove the bolt.
2. Remove the dust filter. Open the service flap and remove the dust filter.
Installing the dust filter
1.
NOTE: Consider the direction of flow through the dust filter.
Install a dust filter.
2. A grate with rubber edging is inserted between the cleaner motor and the filter housing. It should be cleaned of dirt every time the filter is changed.
3.
NOTE: Make sure the hood air grille gasket is properly installed in the windshield area. A new hood air grille gasket needs to be installed. See Section 501-02 for more information.
Install the hood air grille.
