Control system of a microclimate of salon

In order that the control system of a microclimate could provide heating and cooling of the air coming to salon, the engine of the car has to work.

You can adjust the direction of the streams of air coming to salon from ventilating central and side 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 deflector, turn the regulator which is located sideways from the deflector.

The ventilating 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.

Functioning of system in the automatic mode

To include an automatic operating mode of system, press the AUTO button and then establish desirable air temperature by rotation of the handle of the regulator. At inclusion of system the light indicator which is built in the AUTO button will light up, and the FULL AUTO indicator will be brought to the display.

The switched-on indicator of the button indicates that the system works in the recirculation mode without access of external air to interior of the car. If the indicator of this button does not burn, the system works in the normal mode.

For the fastest warming up or cooling of air in salon turn temperature regulator handle respectively on or counterclockwise in extreme situation. At the same time the limit of adjustable temperature is established top (32 °C) or lower (18 °C). In extreme provisions of the regulator of air temperature the system will work in the constant mode, without being switched off, warming up or cooling air with the greatest possible efficiency. If to install the handle of the regulator of temperature in one of intermediate positions between 19 °C and 31 °C, then the system will automatically maintain the set air temperature in interior of the car.
The fan automatically turns on in cold weather only after the engine worked some time and a heater is ready to air heating.

Pressing the OFF button completely disconnects a control system of a microclimate. The system should not be in the disconnected state a little long time. In order to avoid stagnation of air and emergence of foreign smells it is recommended to keep in salon constantly the fan included.

Functioning of system in the semi-automatic mode

You can include manually any function of a control system of a microclimate when it works in the automatic mode. At the same time automatic control of all other functions of system remains. Pressing any button transfers system to the semi-automatic mode. The indicator which is built in the AUTO button, and the FULL indicator on the display are switched off.

Button of turning on of the conditioner
The conditioner joins and switched off by pressing the А/С button. The condition of the conditioner is reflected the corresponding indicator in the display: ON (Is included) or OFF (Is switched off). If you manually switched off the conditioner, the control system of a microclimate will not be able to maintain air temperature, coming to salon, air temperatures are lower. At the working conditioner establish by means of the regulator handle air temperature at the comfortable level.

Button of inclusion of the mode of recirculation of air

The button with a symbol is intended for inclusion and switching off of the mode of recirculation of air. If the light indicator which is built in this button burns, then on a control system of a microclimate air from interior of the car (the recirculation mode) constantly circulates. If the indicator does not burn, then fresh air from the atmosphere which is carried previously in a control system of a microclimate to the set requirements comes to salon. You can include manually the recirculation mode, for example, at the movement in the smoke-filled or polluted atmosphere. At inclusion of the mode of recirculation the indicator which is built in the button lights up.

Button of speed control of rotation of the fan
The button allows to regulate the speed of rotation of the fan manually. By the first pressing the button the fan passes from automatic into manual control mode and begins to work at the lowest speed of rotation. Each subsequent pressing the button leads to step increase in speed of rotation of the fan. The current step of speed of rotation of the fan is reflected in the display the graphic indicator (vertical strips). After achievement of the highest step of speed of rotation of the fan the subsequent pressing the button transfers the fan to the lowest step.

Button of switching of the modes of distribution of air

The MODE button is intended for switching of the modes of distribution of air on interior of the car. By each pressing the button there is a switching of the modes in a certain sequence. The included mode is reflected in the display the corresponding indicator. Press the button four times to see all possible modes of distribution of air.
In all modes of distribution of air a certain part of a stream of air comes to salon via side ventilating deflectors.

The main part of a stream of air comes to salon via the central and side ventilating deflectors located in the control panel.

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

The main part of a stream of air comes to salon through the lower ventilating nozzles.

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.

By pressing the button with a symbol the main part of a stream of air moves on having blown in a windshield, than its bystry defrosting is provided. This button has a priority and cancels previously set air distribution mode. For more bystry removal of hoarfrost or ice from a windshield establish by the regulator the air temperature at the level of 28 °C – 30 °C.
Then press the button and turn on the fan on the maximum speed of rotation. To switch off the mode of an obduv of a windshield, once again press the button with a symbol.

Air temperature sensors The control system of a microclimate includes the air temperature sensors close to a steering column and on the top shelf of the control panel. Do not close nothing sensors and do not allow hit on them any liquids.
