Estimate the restricted Nested Logit

Hi everyone, I find it very difficult to estimate the model proposed in the post title; in particular:
I have done the following code:

install.packages("mlogit") 
install.packages("nlme") 
library("mlogit")
library("nlme")

data("HC", package="mlogit")

HC1 <- mlogit.data(HC, varying = c(2:8, 10:16), choice = "depvar", shape = "wide")

cooling.modes <- index(HC1)$alt %in% c('gcc', 'ecc', 'erc', 'hpc')
room.modes <- index(HC1)$alt %in% c('erc', 'er')
HC1$icca[!cooling.modes] <- 0
HC1$occa[!cooling.modes] <- 0
HC1$inc.cooling <- HC1$inc.room <- 0
HC1$inc.cooling[cooling.modes] <- HC1$income[cooling.modes]
HC1$inc.room[room.modes] <- HC1$income[room.modes]
HC1$int.cooling <- as.numeric(cooling.modes)
head(cooling.modes)

#then estimating the following model:
nl <- mlogit(depvar ~ ich + och +icca + occa + inc.room + inc.cooling + int.cooling | 0 , HC1,
nests = list(cooling = c('gcc','ecc','erc','hpc'), 
other = c('gc', 'ec', 'er')), un.nest.el = FALSE)

summary(nl)

#---
#Signif. codes: 0 ‘***’ 0.001 ‘**’ 0.01 ‘*’ 0.05 ‘.’ 0.1 ‘ ’ 1

#Log-Likelihood: -178.04

my problem is how to impose a value on one of the iv, binding the model before the estimate (for example: iv.cooling=1), how can I do?
