1. An apparatus for ventilating a passenger compartment of a motor vehicle, comprising:
a source for generating an open jet of moving air inside the passenger compartment; and
a deflector body, wherein
the deflector body is spaced apart from the source and one surface of the deflector body is, configured per its intended use, a deflector face, on which the open jet is configured to impinge so as to deflect the moving air to ventilate the passenger compartment, and
the deflector face is configured to be deformed in use and is integrated without a step into a surrounding surface, and without a gap into a surrounding surface.
