Where is the air conditioning outlet of the X-Trail located?
1 Answers
The drainage outlet of the X-Trail's air conditioning system is designed at the lowest point below the condenser in the cabin. Once you locate the condenser inside the cabin, you will find the drainage outlet. Function of the air conditioning drainage outlet: The purpose of the air conditioning drainage outlet is to expel water condensed during the heat exchange process when the air conditioning is in use. The evaporator continuously absorbs moisture from the surrounding air, which condenses into water and is discharged through the drainage outlet. This explains why a puddle of water often forms under the car after the air conditioning has been running for a while. Many new car owners may mistake this for a car leak, but there's no need to worry as long as you confirm whether the air conditioning was turned on. Consequences of a blocked drainage outlet: During the cooling process, the car's air conditioning system produces condensed water, and the drainage pipe for this water is located under the chassis. During the rainy season, exposure to mud and standing water can cause the drainage outlet to become blocked. The consequences are similar to those of a blocked engine compartment drainage outlet—water may flow back into the car, leading to water accumulation on the floor.
