What Fan Does This Operate 2017 Ventana

Trying to figure out what fan the switch on the far right, Front Fan, operates. It does not operate the fan in the windshield area as the two switches to the left that are labeled OH Fans and the hi/med/lo operate that. I don't remember from the delivery tour.

Your heat in the front from the oasis system.

Your photo shows two fan switch controls...
1) the overhead fans are at the top of the windshield directed downward. They are helpful in keeping warm moist interior air from condensing on a cold windshield while winter driving - sort of like a supplemental defroster from above.
2) the other fans switch controls the fan speed for the rear-facing floor heat vent below the center console. (I don't recall right now if that is for cabin heat or chassis heat.)

Thank you Bushy! I will be out that way next year. My wife has family in White Shield and we are going to visit.

We turn on that switch when we are camping in cold weather. The front of the Rv is not insulated well with all the glass. The fan will turn on and off with your front heat zone from the furnace. Makes a big difference in freezing temperatures.
