Tips on Using Air-Conditioning

Preventing the windows from fogging up

NOTE: First check that the condensation drain is not blocked.

1.) During the day:

  • Do not blow cold air at the windshield! (do not use ”window” mode while running the air-conditioning at ”max. cool”).
  • If you feel too cool with air-conditioning at ”max. cool”:
    • Keep the fan running
    • Turn the temperature control to a warmer position
    • Leave the air-conditioning on
  • If you still feel too cold:
    • Keep the fan running
    • Turn the temp. control to a warmer setting (in the red zone)
    • Leave the air-conditioning on
    • If windows fog, slowly turn the temperature control to a ”cooler” position until the windows start to clear
  • Before you stop the tractor:
    • Keep the fan running
    • Switch off the air-conditioning
    • Turn the temp. control to a warmer setting or leave it if it already is at ”warm”
    • Keep the fan running for a couple of minutes to dry the evaporator core

 

2.) In the morning (if air-conditioning was in use the day before)

  • During the first start-up
    • Set air-flow to ”footwell” - NOT to ”window”!
    • Run the fan
    • Turn the temp. control to ”max. heating” (in the red)
    • If you are not driving the tractor, it may help to open the cab door or window
  • As soon as hot, dry air comes out the louvers:
    • Set air-flow to ”window” - this will defog the windows
  • When the windows are clear:
    • Set air-flow and temperature to a comfortable setting
  • If ambient humidity is high or there is moisture inside the cab
    • With the temperature regulator set to ”warm”, switch the air-conditioning on at the dehumidify switch for special operation (cactus symbol).
