You close the vent more. Reason being is it will hold more heat. If you open it then the heat escapes more rapidly.
I would be really cautious about this, plth. I've read in several places that closing the upper vents can give your Q a burnt taste. They all recommend that you leave the upper vent fully open and regulate by closing/opening the lower vents.
