Ventilation, Function




Ventilation:






Function
The ventilation provides for
- keeping the windows from fogging up
- oxygen supply for the vehicle passengers
- rapidly achieving uniform and pleasant temperatures in the passenger compartment.

The blower (A32m1) supports ventilation during normal operation when the vehicle is standing still or for increasing the air flow.

Fresh air is sucked in via the air inlet and the fresh air flap in the heater/A/C housing. Depending on the settings on the push-button control unit, air flows to the air outlets through the air ducts into the passenger compartment.

The air flows through air slits below the rear shelf into the trunk and out of the vehicle through the rear vents.

In the recirculated air mode air is sucked out of the vehicle passenger compartment through the recirculated air flap by the blower and flows into the heater/A/C housing.
