"S-FLOW" All air/heat goes to the front passengers - no air/heat goes to the rear passengers.

I was told by the dealer Tech Guy that you press that button if you have been behind a car or truck with smelly exhaust or drive by a dead skunk in the road, it will help remove the odor in a few minutes.

I didn’t have a chance to test out that button at the dealership but the air pressure seemed very low coming from the ventilated seats. Will switching this on cause higher air pressure?

This is the function you're referring to, accessed from the Climate ...

Sorry, no, this has nothing to do with the ventilation on the seats.

You're not meant to feel a torrent of wind coming from the seats. you're just meant to feel a cooling effect.

Back on topic, I really wonder why they had to call it "s-flow". Whats so "S" about it? To me, it just enables or disables rear air.

S is for Smart Flow. No one referred to ventilated SEATS in this thread The OP was wondering if that button was about heat or cool ventilation but it's not, it's about turning off the rear ventilation. That's on topic.
