Further, the air outlet device (10) comprises a slide element (46) comprising slide portions (48) allocated to the air inlet openings (44) for blocking and unblocking them, and an actuating element (30) for moving the slide element (46), which is arranged at the air outlet opening (45) and comprises a collar. The actuating element (30) is supported so as to be pivotable about a longitudinal axis (50) of the collar.
