Central deflectors
Installation details of the central air duct deflectors of the instrument panel
1 - Panel of switch groups of the central section of the instrument panel; 2 - Bolts; 3 - Assembling the deflectors; 4 - Fixators
1. On models with the corresponding configuration (code ET2), activate the service mode of the TELE AID emergency call system (see Section Activation/deactivation of the service mode of the TELE AID emergency call system).
2. Disconnect the negative cable from the battery.
3. Remove the differential lock actuator switch group (see Chapter On-board electrical equipment).
4. Remove the panel (1) of the instrument panel console section switch groups (see Chapter On-board electrical equipment). There is no need to disconnect the electrical wiring - it will be enough to simply provide access to the mounting screws (2).
5. Loosen the screws (2) and remove the central air vent assembly (3) by pulling it upwards and turning it away from the instrument panel - be careful not to damage the clips (4).
6. Installation is carried out in the reverse order - make sure that the deflector nozzles are correctly seated on your air ducts.
7. On models with the corresponding configuration (code ET2), deactivate the service mode of the TELE AID system (see Section Activation/deactivation of the service mode of the TELE AID emergency call system).
8. Finally, read the DTC codes and clear the on-board diagnostic system memory using the STAR DIAGNOSIS scanner (6511 1801 00) (See Chapter Engine electrical systems).
Side deflectors
Left side of the instrument panel
Installation details of the side deflectors on the left side of the instrument panel
2, 5 - Mounting screws; 3 - Deflector; 4 - Air duct sleeve
1. Remove the lighting mode switch (see Chapter On-board electrical equipment).
2. Disconnect the air duct (4) from the deflector assembly nozzle.
3. Depending on the version, carefully release the two clamps using a long wedge of a suitable shape/unscrew the fastening screws (2)/(2 and 5) and remove the deflector (3) by pulling it upwards with a turn and releasing it from the instrument panel - prepare a replacement side support unit.
4. Installation is carried out in reverse order.
Right side of the instrument panel
Installation details of the side deflectors on the right side of the instrument panel
1 - Deflector; 6 - Mounting screw; 7 - Air duct sleeve
1. Remove the lower cover on the right under the instrument panel (see Section Removal and installation lower instrument panel covers).
2. Remove the glove box (see Section Removal and installation the glove box).
3. Remove the screw securing the right air duct (7) of the interior ventilation/heating systems.
4. Separate the air duct (7) from the deflector assembly nozzle (1) - the speaker wiring is attached to the air duct sleeve.
5. Then proceed in the same order as described above for the left deflector (see above paragraph 3 of the subsection Left side of the instrument panel).
6. Installation is carried out in reverse order.
