Left Radiator Housing With Temperature Doors, Removing And Installing: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

NOTE:

The activation of the temperature doors and with it the radiator housing with the left temperature doors is different between vehicles equipped with "Convenience" and "Basis" A/C systems. Refer to OVERVIEW - AIR DISTRIBUTION HOUSING DOORS AND PARTITIONS and the Parts Information..

To maintain the A/C unit stability, only one radiator housing (the left or right side) may be removed with the A/C unit installed.

Depending on the production date, there are different versions of the levers and connecting elements on the A/C unit. Refer to NOTES ON FRONT HEATER AND A/C UNIT and the Parts Information..

CAUTION:

Do not remove the left and right radiator housing at the same time.

Both radiator housings are support components of the A/C unit and must not be removed at the same time or the A/C unit will become unstable.
If necessary, remove the left and right radiator housing one after the other.
