Opening, closing and aiming the
air vents
Some air vents in the passenger compart-
ment can be opened, closed and aimed indi-
vidually.
If the car's outer vents are aimed at the side
windows then misting can be eliminated.
If the car's outer vents are aimed inwards
then, in a hot climate, a comfortable environ-
ment is obtained in the passenger compart-
ment.
