Ventilation System
For mild outside temperatures when little heating or
cooling is needed, use PANEL or VENT to direct
outside air through your vehicle. Airflow is through the
instrument panel outlets.
Your vehicle’s ventilation system supplies outside air to
the inside of your vehicle when it is moving. When the
vehicle is not moving, you can get outside air to flow
through by selecting any mode and any fan speed.
You will find air outlets in the center and on the sides of
your instrument panel.
You can direct the airflow side
-to-side by turning the
thumbwheel located in the center of the vent. The vent
can be tilted up and down also. To control the amount
of airflow through the outlets, turn the thumbwheel
below the vent.
Ventilation Tips
Keep the hood and front air inlet free of ice, snow or
any other obstruction (such as leaves). The heater
and defroster will work far better, reducing the
chance of fogging the inside of your windows.
When you enter a vehicle in cold weather, move the
fan knob to high for a few moments before driving
off. This helps clear the intake ducts of snow and
moisture, and reduces the chance of fogging the
inside of your windows.
Keep the air path under the front seats clear of
objects. This helps air to circulate throughout
your vehicle.
