Operation Tips
•
Clear away any ice, snow, or leaves from the air
inlets at the base of the vehicle that may block
the flow of air into your vehicle.
•
Use of non-GM approved hood deflectors may
adversely affect the performance of the system.
•
Keep the path under the front seats clear of
objects to help circulate the air inside of your
vehicle more effectively.

Passenger Compartment Air Filter

The passenger compartment outside air is routed
through a passenger compartment filter. The filter
removes certain particles from the air, including pollen
and dust particles. Reductions in airflow, which may
occur more quickly in dusty areas, indicate that the
filter needs to be replaced early.
The filter should be replaced as part of routine
scheduled maintenance. See Scheduled Maintenance
on page 6-4 for when to replace the filter.
