Instrument Panel Air Outlets:

There is one defroster air outlet in the defroster grille located on the top of the instrument panel. The airflow from the defroster outlet is directed by fixed vanes in the defroster grille and cannot be adjusted. The defroster air outlet is not serviceable from the defroster grille.

There are two side window demister air outlets. One located on each end of the instrument panel top cover. The airflow from the side window demister air outlets is directed by fixed vanes in the outlets and cannot be adjusted. The side window demister air outlets are only serviced with the instrument panel top cover.

There are four instrument panel air outlets. One air outlet is located near each outboard end of the instrument panel facing the rear of the vehicle and two air outlets are located above the top of the instrument panel center bezel. The air outlet located at the right end of the instrument panel can be removed individually for service replacement. The other instrument panel air outlets are part of the instrument cluster bezel and cannot be serviced separately.

Each of the instrument panel air outlets contain an air outlet barrel that is used to direct or shut off the flow of the conditioned air leaving the instrument panel. All of the air outlet barrels can be removed individually for service replacement.
