VENTILATION SYSTEM
Heating, Ventilation, & Air Conditioning (HVAC)
The ventilation system is the vehicle's air mixture and
distribution system. Starting at the air intake, fresh or
recirculated air flows into the vent box when the
vehicle is moving or is drawn in by the blower motor.
This air then moves through the evaporator core (if
equipped) and/or the heater core, depending on
desired temperature. Then, the temperature-corrected
air is directed by electrical actuators (3) to the
occupants' selected distribution vents:
• Center
• Center - Floor Mix
• Floor
• Floor - Defroster Mix
• Defroster
