Abstract
An air-handling system for a motor vehicle includes a conditioning section having an evaporator core and a heater core. The conditioning section is separated into a primary zone and a secondary zone at a position disposed upstream of the heater core. The heater core extends partially into each of the primary zone and the secondary zone. A primary door assembly is disposed within the conditioning section at a position upstream of the heater core and a secondary door assembly is disposed within the secondary zone of the conditioning section at a position downstream of the primary door and upstream of the heater core.
