Abstract

An air conditioner system includes rear vent and foot nozzles to discharge conditioning air therefrom against occupants of the rear seats in the vehicular cabin. This system also includes a door which selectively opens and closes the rear vent and foot nozzles. This system allows conditioning air to be discharged from the rear vent nozzle when a manually operable switch is on. The conditioning air is discharged from the rear foot nozzle when the switch is OFF while the front discharge mode is set as VENT mode.
