How to heat/cool down your bus

Yeah it would be awesome if someone explained how to do it? How to set the handles Cause no matter how I set it, the temperature goes up up up. Once it went to 34 ;O

It would be awesome if some kind soul could provide screens with it

Open the windows. There is no aircon, so that's the only way. Turn off the heater and open the windows.

Yes, on the older buses from the 80s, opening the windows was nearly the only way to keep the bus "cool". On the heating panel, you can also set the very right lever into the middle position allowing fresh air from outside go get inside the bus through the grill. And you can open the driver's window, too. (And let the doors stay open a bit longer, especially while having your break at the terminus.)
And make sure the cabin heater (green switch with a fan icon) is turned off, they can only heat at full power.

Mmhm, so this is the ONLY way to cool it :< schade

That's exactly what passengers were saying on hot summer days. We got the first air-conditioned buses in 1996.

Which is early compared to Poland (first Radom a/c's came in... 2006? if not 2010) EOT.

Yeah, living in the tropics it's always seems insane to me that buses can be not air conditioned. Here the longer distance buses started getting aircon in the mid 60's, we have Leyland Tigers at the museum with an auxiliary engine on the roof just to power the aircon I think it was in 1982 that a law was passed that all buses purchased for public service must be air conditioned.

Haha I know the feeling, I just finished a run with the temperature outside set right at freezing with some snow and wet roads

Bus was same temp as outside, so I put the heater on full blast. I didn't allow the bus to warm up before my first stop, so I got passengers' complaints about a cold bus. About 15 minutes later I got a complaint about the bus being too hot, so I looked at the temperature and I was around 22C, picky passengers

I didn't know there was a separate switch for the heater, I just put the temperature lever all the way to the red circle. Haha. No wonder it took awhile to warm the bus up.

Just out of curiosity, what do the other two levers do (one to the left and to the right of the temperature lever)?
