Never operate the HVAC system with the filter removed. This
may result in premature failure of system components.
10.12 Air-Conditioner ON
The air conditioning system can be switched ON/OFF by operating
the ‘AC LO’ and ‘AC HI’ switches for manual HVAC system and by
AC button in auto climate control system. An indicator lamp is also
incorporated on the switches. The air conditioner is operational only
when both the engine and blower are running.
When the air conditioner is ON, air gets cooled and de-humidified
before being circulated inside the cabin. In hot weather conditions, it
will take slightly longer to cool the interior as compared to cooler
weather. Fuel consumption will be relatively higher if the vehicle is
being driven with the air conditioner.

•
In certain operating conditions when the engine gets
overheated, the engine management system may switch off
the air conditioner intermittently
•
Occasionally the air conditioner might not actually be
functioning even when the LED on the AC switch remains
illuminated. This is to be considered as normal AC system
operation
•
During extreme cold weather conditions, the air conditioner
may not function until the temperature of the air near the
evaporator rises above a pre-defined threshold
•
When the air conditioner is ON, moisture is extracted from
the air. The resulting condensate is drained off from the
vehicle. It is therefore normal, if you see a small pool of water
under your vehicle
