Wasn't the ISM recently discontinued? I don't know when the 5600s were delivered, but the fact that the ISM is no longer offered could've been a reason.

If you feel you have to you can always push the roof hatch cover up for circulation. Ive seen that with SEPTA many times and there are times the hatch lid gets damaged when having to be opened when the AC craps out in the summer time. Since SEPTAs windows do not open at all. Or if its necessary you can always pull the red handle on the side of the window.
