The little vents above the door windows

If I remember correctly, the air vents supply enough air to keep one person alive with everything else closed. You don't want the teardrop to be too air tight. Personally, I always leave the vent and windows open just a smidgen regardless of how cold it is.
The vents serve a couple of purposes...
One is to reduce the amount of moisture/condensation build up in the cabin.
The other is so you can shut the doors easily. The cabin is well sealed and closing the doors is difficult unless there is a vent to reduce the pressure in the cabin.
Although the vents do aid in fresh air exchange, they are not meant to replace cracking a window or roof vent to keep a supply of fresh air circulating in the cabin.
