Rear Air Vents To maximize airflow through the rear floor outlet, place the left bucket seat in the second row in the forward position. See "Adjusting Rear Seats" in the Index. Rear Climate Control (Vehicles with the Entertainment System) (Option) If you have the optional rear entertainment system, the rear seat passengers can control the temperature and the amount of air directed to the rear of the vehicle. You can also adjust the amount of air directed to the rear of the vehicle using the front fan knob. When it's cold outside, set the main climate control mode knob to floor, defog or defrost to send air to the rear of the vehicle through the floor ducts. The vent behind the left rear seat is the cold air return vent. Be sure to keep it free of obstructions. Keep the area around the base of the center instrument panel console, between and under the front seats, free of objects that could obstruct airflow to the rear. Set the main climate control mode knob to vent or bi-level to send air to the rear of the vehicle through the headliner outlets. To send conditioned air to the rear of the vehicle, press the A/C button on the main climate controls. If you do not select air conditioning, air directed to the rear of the vehicle will be cabin temperature. 3-9
