Removing

  S80-0099
–  Use a flat screwdriver to press in the plastic lug -arrow- of the positioning unit for air distribution flaps -1- and pull out flex shaft -2-.
Install
  Note
t  The flex shaft can only be installed in one way on the positioning unit and on the heater control.
t  When installing, however, the positioning unit and the rotary knob of the heater control must be in a certain position relatively to each other, otherwise this will result in malfunctions.
–  Fit flex shaft onto positioning unit of air distribution flaps and lock in place.
–  Use the flex shaft to move the defrost flap into vertical position (“open”).
–  Set air distribution knob on heater control to “defrost”.
–  In this position, insert flex shaft into control and lock in place.
  Note
t  If the dash panel is installed and the position of the defrost flap is not visible, insert flex shaft into heater control and lock in place. Run fresh air blower at maximum speed.
t  If air also flows out of the defrost vent in the “defrost” position and not out of the footwell vents, the flex shaft is correctly installed. If this is not the case, detach flex shaft from the control, turn rotary knob 1/2 a turn (180°) and fit on flex shaft again. Repeat check.
