The direction of airflow for the rear seats can also be
adjusted. Move the center control dial between each
vent up or down to adjust the airflow from low to high.
Turn the dial to the ªOº position to stop airflow.
Move the lever in the center of each vent to direct
airflow toward the upper or floor outlets.
The airflow temperature from the rear outlets is the
same as the driver's temperature setting.
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, reducing the
chance of fogging the inside of the windows.

When you enter a vehicle in cold weather, adjust the
fan to the highest speed for a few moments before
driving off. This helps clear the intake outlets of
snow and moisture, and reduces the chance of
fogging the inside of the windows.

Keep the air path under the front seats clear
of objects. This helps circulate air throughout
your vehicle.Passenger Compartment Air Filter
This ventilation system includes a charcoal air filter that
helps to remove dust, pollen, etc. from air flowing into
your vehicle. A restriction in the airflow coming into the
passenger compartment could be the result of dirt in the
filter. For more information, see ªPassenger Compartment
Air Filterº in the Index. Also see the Maintenance
Schedule booklet for when to change the filter.
Audio Systems
Your audio system has been designed to operate easily
and give years of listening pleasure. You will get the
most enjoyment out of it if you acquaint yourself with it
first. Find out what your audio system can do and how
to operate all its controls, to be sure you're getting the
most out of the advanced engineering that went into it.
