the
knob (23)
(from the cold position
when fully in)
to the hot in the fully extended
position.
The demisters
are fed with air at all times, but
in order to dispel heavy misting, or to defrost the
screen, close the flaps
(19)
on either side of the
heater unit under the facia, by actuating
the white
toggles on these flaps with a sideways
motion.

The
fan
("heat")
switch
is three-positional;
up-"'off";
centre-"plenum
chamber
fan";
lower-
"plenum
chamber
and r~diator
fan".
When used in conjunction
with the heater con-
trols, the fan will deliver
a greater
quantity
of air
to either "screen"
or "interior"
of car at any tem-
perature between "cold" and "hot".
.
1 Face level ventilator.!;
This system
is entirely
independent
from
the
normal
screen
and interior
ventilation,
although
both systems can be used at the same time. If the
heater fan is not operating
then the system will
.
operate by means of simple ram effect, delivering
air at ambient temperature.
Direction
of the vents
is by pushing
with the
finger and thumb to the desired position.
Open or
close vents by pushing with finger.
