Rear outlet vents (F)
The air flow of the Rear outlet vents is
delivered by the front climate control
system and delivered through the
inside air duct of the front doors. If the
door is open or not closed completely,
the air flow of the Rear outlet vent is
not delivered properly. Make sure the
front doors are closed completely.
The air flow of the Rear outlet vents
may be weaker than the instrument
panel vents due to the long air duct in
the front doors.

ant or foul odors that might be present
may still be noticeable within the vehicle.
WARNING
• Continued use of the climate con-
trol system operation in the recir-
culated air position may allow
humidity to increase inside the
vehicle which may fog the glass
and obscure visibility.
Do not sleep in a vehicle with the
air conditioning or heating system
on. It may cause serious harm or
death due to a drop in the oxygen
level and/or body temperature.
Continued use of the climate con-
trol system operation in the recir-
culated air position can cause
drowsiness or sleepiness, and loss
of vehicle control. Set the air intake
control to the outside (fresh) air
position as much as possible while
