Description
The heater is of the fresh air type and is mounted behind the centre
console on the engine bulkhead. Water from the cooling system is fed
to the heater via hoses from the engine. Fresh air is drawn from the
front of the vehicle and ducted to the heater. The heated air is forced
through vents in the foot wells and via hoses to the demisters.
