Where is the rear air conditioning air intake of Haval H9?
4 Answers
The rear air conditioning air intake of the Haval H9 is located at the front of the vehicle, and it shares the same air intake as the front air conditioning system. Here is more information about the Haval H9: 1. Exterior: The new Haval H9 features significant changes in the front fascia, including a redesigned grille with thicker chrome trim and a dual-bar design. 2. Interior: The dashboard follows a traditional symmetrical layout, wrapped in soft-touch materials with chrome accents. A large multimedia display is integrated into the dashboard, housing most of the entertainment functions. It also features a panoramic sunroof with intelligent functions such as automatic window closing at 120 km/h, anti-pinch protection, and rain-sensing automatic window closing. 3. Features: The vehicle is equipped with full-speed ACC adaptive cruise control, collision warning + emergency braking, lane departure warning + lane change assist, L2-level autonomous driving, three differential locks, and CCO low-speed off-road cruise control. The CCO off-road cruise, commonly known as the creep function, automatically controls the engine and braking system under specific road conditions, allowing the vehicle to maintain a set speed for smooth driving. By regulating engine torque output, it ensures driving comfort, freeing the driver from frequent throttle and brake adjustments, allowing full focus on steering direction for safe navigation through challenging terrains.
I've also looked into this while driving. The rear air conditioning air intakes of the Haval H9 are mainly distributed in two locations. One is at the rear of the roof, right next to the reading lights above the second-row passengers' heads, where there's a grid-like opening specifically designed as an air intake for the rear air conditioning. The other location is hidden deeper near the center console under the front seats, requiring you to bend down to see it, mainly responsible for directing the cold air from the front to the rear. When the air conditioning is on, placing your hand near these two spots will give you a noticeable suction feeling. Last time I cleaned the air conditioning filter, I specifically used a vacuum cleaner to remove the accumulated dust there, and later noticed a significant increase in airflow. This design is quite thoughtful, preventing rear passengers from being directly blasted with air and feeling uncomfortable. My daughter hasn't complained about being hot in the back seat since then.
Just helped my neighbor check his Haval H9 a couple of days ago, and indeed the rear AC air intakes are quite concealed. The most visible ones are on the ceiling - the long strip grilles on either side of the second-row dome lights serve as air intakes, and you can feel airflow when touching them. There's also a more crucial location hidden beneath the driver's seat, with a similar concealed vent under the front passenger seat. I specifically tested it in recirculation mode - when the rear independent AC activates, these intakes become particularly noticeable, especially during summer cooling when you can clearly hear the fan suction sound. Remember to clean them regularly; once I found leaves blocking the intake, causing delayed rear cooling until I fixed it by cleaning with a soft brush.
I often take long-distance trips in my Haval H9 and have studied the rear air conditioning intake quite well. The air for the second-row air conditioning comes in through the vertical grille on the ceiling, located on either side of the reading lights. When the rear independent air conditioning mode is turned on, there's a slight fan noise from there. Actually, there are also intake channels under the front seats, with small grids hidden at the edges of the floor mats—I noticed this last time when changing the mats. Remember to avoid covering these areas when installing full-coverage floor mats, as blocking the intake vents can affect cooling efficiency. If you notice dust accumulating around the grids, just vacuum it a few times.
