Opening, closing and directing air vents
Some of the air vents in the passenger compartment can be individually opened, closed and directed.
Misting can be eliminated by directing the outer air vents towards the door windows.
Direct the outer air vents into the passenger compartment to maintain a comfortable temperature in warm weather.
