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, reducin
the chance of fogging the inside of
your windows.
When you enter a vehicle
in cold
weather, turn the fan control knob to
the right for a few moments before
driving off. This helps clear the intak
ducts of snow and moisture, and
reduces the chance of fogging the
inside
of your windows.
Keep the air path under the front seat
clear of objects. This helps air to
circulate throughout your vehicle.
