compartment:
Air flow to the windscreen, front side window

Air flow to the front/rear footwell diffusers. This
air distribution allows the passenger

diffusers.
Air flow to central/side dashboard vents

distribution activates the climate control system
compressor (LED on A/C button on) and the air

windows. The user can always set air recirculation
