Ok, 38 views and no takers. Does everyone's work the way I've described it, or does yours work the way I'm expecting it to. It's easy to test. Turn on the AC and put the fan on level two or three, now reach behind you in the back and turn the fan all the way up and down to see if the front goes up and down too.

Note: The indicator in the front stays where it is. It's the forcefulness and amount of air coming out of the front vents that goes up and down with the rear controls.
