Flow-Through Ventilation System
1
K2 1 90
Your vehicle’s flow-through ventilation system supplies outside air \
to the inside
of your vehicle when
it is moving. With the side windows closed, air will flow
into the front air inlet grilles, through the vehicle and out the rear air exhaust
valves. Outside air will also enter the vehicle when the heate\
r or the air conditioning fan is running.
Ventilation Tips
e
e
e
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, turn the blower fan\
to
HI 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.

Function Lever
The top lever can be moved to three different heating functions.
Defrost (Right): This setting operates the defroster. Heated air comes\
out
near the windshield. Use this when you get fog
or ice on the windshield.
Heater (Center): Heated air comes out near the floor. This is best for cold
weather.
Vent (Left): The air comes out at the vents on your instrument panel and
at your front side windows.
Placing the lever between positions sends air
