Regulate air distribution
If desired, the air vents in the cab can be tilted and/or twisted to regulate the air distribution.
Ventilating
At maximum circulating air (rotary switch
circulation air /outdoor air ratio
fully turned counterclockwise),
it is advised to ventilate regularly with fresh outdoor air.
The oxygen percentage in the air can restore itself.
This can be done in the following ways:
•
Open (temporarily) a door window:
-
Using the switches
door window driver’s side
and
door window co-dr
iver’s side
on the
control panel (see

circulation air /outdoor air ratio
clockwise.

Use of the air conditioning
Avoid excessive cooling by use of the air conditioning. It is recommended to apply the rule of a
difference between outdoor and indoor temperature of maximum 10 to 14 ° C.
Exposure of the human body to frequent and high temperature changes may lead to an uncomfortable
feeling, often only noticeable after leaving the truck cab.
Avoid exposure to cold air flows directly on the body (this is experienced as draft).
Rotate the air vents so that the cold air can first mix with the hot air in the cab. This creates a uniform
temperature in the truck cab.
For efficient and effective use of the airco system, it is advised to close all doors and door windows.
If the desired cab temperature is reached, the air yield of the fan can be turned back:
-
Turn the rotary switch
enable fan and adjust air yield
counterclockwise.
INFORMATION!
To prevent development of odours by fungi, it is advised to turn off the air
conditioning a couple of minutes before turning off the engine.
INFORMATION!
It is advised to turn on the air conditioning weekly (also in winter) relating to the
internal lubrication of the system.
