Absolutely correct Marshall. Plus the fan symbol is actually a defrost symbol. That is supposed to be the fan speed that will defrost most effectively. The same symbol appears on the defrost position for the lever.
Isn't this covered in the owner's manual? I think that's where I got it...

I think, but I'm not sure, that always running the car on the big snowflake can cause things to wear prematurely? I dont know about the fan speeds.

Meaning when you put it on the big snow flake it recirculates the air from the inside and the small snow flake draws in fresh air from the out side.
