Honda Civic/Acura Integra

since 1994 release

Repair and operation of the car

Heater and air conditioner

If your car upon purchase was not equipped with the air conditioning system. You can install this system on the car at any time. For this purpose it is necessary to address on HUNDRED Hondas for equipment of the car the air conditioning system made at the Honda plants and meeting all requirements of our company.

Control panel of heating, ventilation and air conditioning

Fan regulator handle
Movement of the handle leads to increase in frequency of rotation of the fan and air supply in interior of the car to the right.

Air temperature regulator handle

Movement of the handle leads to increase in air temperature, the car coming to salon to the right.

Button of turning on of the conditioner of air (separate models)

The А/С button is intended for inclusion and switching off of the conditioner of air. At the switched-on conditioner the indicator which is built in the button lights up.

Button of inclusion of the mode of recirculation of air
The button is intended for inclusion and switching off of the mode of recirculation of air.

At the included recirculation mode (what the burning indicator which is built in the button testifies to) the interior of the car is isolated from the atmosphere and receipt in salon of fresh air stops. The fan provides air circulation on the closed contour. If repeatedly to press the button and to switch off the recirculation mode (at the same time the indicator which is built in the button will go out), fresh external air from the atmosphere will begin to come to salon.

Buttons of inclusion of the modes of distribution of air

Buttons are intended for the choice of the mode of distribution of air.

External air comes to salon via the central and side ventilating deflectors located in the control panel.

External air comes to salon at the same time via the central and side ventilating deflectors in control panels and the lower ventilating nozzles which provide air supply in a zone of an arrangement of legs of the driver and passengers.

External air comes to salon only through the lower ventilating nozzles which provide air supply in a zone of an arrangement of legs of the driver and passengers.

External air comes to salon at the same time through nozzles of an obduv wind and side glasses, the control panels located on the top shelf, and through the lower ventilating nozzles.

External air arrives on having blown wind and side glasses through the nozzles located on the top shelf of the control panel.

CARS WITH A 5-DOOR BODY THE HATCHBACK

Control of deflectors
You can adjust the direction of the streams of air coming to salon from deflectors by means of regulators. Direct air in the desirable direction, moving rychazhka of deflectors to the left-to the right and up-down.

Air supply via the side ventilating deflectors located at the left and on the right on the control panel can be completely stopped. To close or open the side ventilating deflector, turn the regulator which is located sideways from the deflector.
The deflector located on the top shelf of the control panel can be open or closed with the help a rychazhka which is between the central ventilating deflectors.
If one of the modes of distribution of air is included or, then in the top situation the rychazhka air will come to interior of the car at the same time through central and top ventilating deflectors. To stop intake of air via the top deflector, completely lower a rychazhok down.

Recommendations about operation of a heater and conditioner of air

For functioning of systems of heating of salon and air conditioning it is required that the engine of the car worked. The heater uses hot cooling liquid of the engine for heating of the air coming to salon. If the engine is not heated-up up to the normal working temperature, several minutes before warm air begins to come to salon will be required.

In absolute majority of cases the best results of work of the systems providing a comfortable microclimate are reached in the receipt mode in salon of external air. Long inclusion of the mode of recirculation of air, especially at the idle conditioner, leads to fogging of glasses. Therefore it is recommended to include the air recirculation mode only in case of need and for short time, for example, at the movement on the area with the smoke-filled or polluted atmosphere. As soon as need of isolation of interior of the car from the atmosphere disappeared, switch off the air recirculation mode.

External atmospheric air comes to systems of heating and conditioning through the reception lattice located before a windshield. Periodically clear openings of a reception lattice of leaves and the other garbage complicating air passing.

Ventilation of interior of the car

The system of a supply and exhaust ventilation provides constant exchange of air in interior of the car. The fresh external air arriving through a forward reception lattice circulates on salon and then is removed through the exhaust outlets located about back glass.

PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. Shift temperature regulator handle in extreme left situation. Check that the conditioner of air was switched off. 2. Include the air distribution mode, having pressed the corresponding button. The mode of recirculation of air has to be switched off. 3. By means of the handle of the regulator of the fan establish the desirable level of air supply in salon.

Cooling of air in interior of the car (separate models)

If the car staid a long time in the sun, and air in salon strongly heated up, you can reduce quickly air temperature in salon as follows.

Operation of the air conditioning system leads to additional load of the car engine. Therefore you watch closely an arrow of the index of temperature of cooling liquid, moving with a small speed in street traffic jams or overcoming long raising of the considerable steepness. If the arrow was displaced to a red zone of a scale, temporarily switch off the air conditioner until temperature of the engine does not return to normal.

Heating of interior of the car

To lift air temperature in interior of the car, execute the following.

Heating of salon with simultaneous drainage of air (separate models)

During the work of air conditioning system humidity of air decreases. Therefore simultaneous inclusion of a heater and the conditioner allows to make air in interior of the car warm and dry.

Joint inclusion of systems of heating and air conditioning can be applied in any traffic conditions when temperature of air is above 0 °C.

Removal of moisture and hoarfrost from glasses

It is possible to clear the internal surfaces of glasses of the condensed moisture as follows.

To remove from the external surface of glasses the hoarfrost or ice formed later parking of the car on the street in frosty weather, execute the following.

In the mode of an obduv of glasses all air comes to salon through the slot-hole nozzles located on the top shelf of the control panel at the windshield basis and via side ventilating deflectors which are at the edges of the control panel. Air temperature, the blowing glass, and the speed of purification of glasses increase in process of warming up of the engine. For more bystry removal from a windshield of condensate, hoarfrost or ice you can close side ventilating deflectors, having turned the corresponding regulators down. In this case all air will go only on having blown in a windshield.

For reasons of safety do not begin the movement until all windows are not cleared of condensate, hoarfrost or ice and to you the good review from the car is not provided.

Switching off of systems of heating and ventilation

Temporarily to disconnect systems of heating and ventilation, move to extreme left position of the handle of regulators of the fan and air temperature.
Shutdown of system of heating is necessary the first several minutes after start of the engine in cold weather. It provides more bystry warming up of the engine up to the temperature sufficient for effective work of a heater. You keep the fan in all other cases constantly included in order to avoid a congestion in salon of a dead air.
