Windshield defrost problems

Hi everyone, needs some help here, my 2002 X5's front defrost doesnt seem to want to blow out any air to defrost front windshield, the floor vents work but all the other vents aren't working, i can hear it on but only the floor no matter what button i push, any suggestions?

Snowflake icon 'on', then push any/all of the three vent buttons, on left side of panel...
All in the Manual, either the one in your glove box, or the handy On Line Manual here in the 'On Line References' tab, top of any page, right center.

See page 107...

I *think* I had success pushing the button (far right, upper) that looked like a traditional defrost icon. (page 107, button 11 from MotorDavid's link)

Also, leave everything on auto.

Personally, I would have switched the icons for the rear and front defrost buttons, but thats just me.
