Attention! Depending on the configuration, the vehicle may be equipped with a heater with or without air circulation mode in the passenger compartment. A heater with recirculation mode can be recognized by the presence of a switch with the corresponding icon on the panel. This mode, for example, can be turned on when driving through a tunnel or when driving through an area with an unpleasant odor. In this case, the air blown into the passenger compartment by the fan will be taken from the passenger compartment, and not from the outside. The procedure for dismantling the fan motor depends on the type of heater.
