Adjusting air vents
GWarning!
When operating the climate control, the air
that enters the passenger compartment
through the air vents can be very hot or very
cold (depending on the set temperature). This
may cause burns or frostbite to unprotected
skin in the immediate area of the air vents.
Always keep sufficient distance between
unprotected parts of the body and the air
vents. If necessary, use the air distribution
adjustment to direct the air to air vents in the
vehicle interior that are not in the immediate
area of unprotected skin.
For best possible performance of the climate
control:
XKeep the air intake grille in front of the
windshield free of snow, leaves, sticks, and
any other debris.
XAlways keep all air vents and grilles in the
passenger compartment free from
obstruction.
iFor draft-free ventilation, move the
adjustable center and side air vents to the
middle position.
