Abstract
An air guiding device for a motor vehicle includes an air guiding element that is displaceable by a deployment device, between operative and inoperative positions. In its inoperative position, it is lowered with respect to a stationary vehicle body shell and, in its operative position it is deployed outward, projecting beyond the vehicle body shell. The deployment device has at least one deployment element with a deployment arm that is displaceably disposed in a guide housing. The air guiding element is arranged on the fastening end of the deployment arm. The deployment element is equipped with a manually operable adjusting device in order to align the air guiding element in its inoperative position relative to the vehicle body shell. To adjust the air guiding element in its inoperative position relative to the vehicle body shell, the deployment element has an internal or external-thread section on its fastening end as an adjusting arrangement. The latter extends in the longitudinal direction of the tilt-out element and has an adjusting device screwed thereon, which adjusting device has a counterthread section. The air guiding element is fastened to the free end of the adjusting device.
