Section 562 (HVAC Systems (Service Information)): Distribution: Duct-Defroster: Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The two slot-type defroster outlets located near the center of the instrument panel receive airflow from the HVAC housing through the molded plastic main distribution duct (1) and defroster ducts (2), which are attached to the bottom of the instrument panel top cover (3).
The defroster ducts are integral to the instrument panel top cover and are not serviced separately. OUTLETS-AIR .
