Active Grill Shutters

Anyone aware of a way to open the grill shutters (to clean etc) apart from running the car and having the engine needing extra cold air?

A scan-tool that is bidirectional. I would like to know this too if there is and trick to do this. Maybe wait till it opens a remove the fuse?
