4.5 HVAC system
4.5.1 General description
The A/C filter can filter pollen and dust entering
the air inlet of HVAC system.
The A/C filter must be regularly cleaned and
replaced according to “Regular Maintenance
Schedule” in Warranty Manual.
If the vehicle often runs in areas with poor air
quality, the replacement interval of the A/C filter
should be shortened. If the airflow from the A/C
air outlet is not as smooth as usual, it may be
due to the dirty and clogged A/C filter. In this
case, clean or replace the A/C filter as soon as
possible.
WARNING
If the air in the vehicle is foul, it will
make the driver easily fatigued, lack of
energy, and distracted, which is easy to
cause an accident, resulting in personal
injury or even death. Therefore, enable
the air circulation mode according to the
actual situation.
CAUTION
If the HVAC system fails (such as no
cooling, peculiar smell of air, etc.), please
go to the GAC Motor authorized shop for
inspection and repair.
NOTE
● The HVAC system can be operated
when the ENGINE START/STOP button
is in “ON” position.
● When the A/C is turned on, there will
be water dripped under the vehicle.
Prolonged parking with the A/C on will
cause accumulated water, which is
normal.
● Clean the snow, ice and leaves on the
front windshield wiper cover regularly to
avoid blockage of the air inlet of the A/
C and ensure normal air intake of the
HVAC system.
● The HVAC system can only play its
best role after the windows are closed.
However, when the inside temperature
is high under hot sun, open the windows
briefly to dissipate the inside heat, and
then enable the A/C for cooling.
