The control panel also is built in in the central part of the panel of devices of the car. Moving of control levers makes change of position corresponding заслонок for which account there is a deviation and mixing of streams of air arriving from various parts of system of heating/ventilation.

Stagnant air is deduced from salon through the air lines laid in a back part of the car.
