panel. Each of these outlets can be individually

center outlets and outboard outlets can be moved up and
down or side to side to regulate airflow direction. There
is a shut off wheel located below the air vanes to shut off

floor outlets. A slight amount of air is directed
through the defrost and side window demister outlets. NOTE:

of air is directed through the defrost and side
window demister outlets.
