[ i ) Tips
• To avoid adversely affecting hea ting and cooling performance
and to preven t condensation on the windows, the air intake in front
of the windshield must be free of ice , snow and leaves.
• The air flowing out of the ven ts and throughout the vehicle 's
entire interior is d ischarged at the rear of the vehicle . Make sure tha t
the outle t slots are not cover ed by clothing, etc .
• Climate control works mos t effectively if the windows and the
