198 Climate Controls
Do not cover the sensor; otherwise the
automatic climate control system may not
work properly.
Afterblow Feature
If equipped, under certain conditions, the
fan may stay on or may turn on and off
several times after you turn off and lock the
vehicle. This is normal.
Air Vents
Use the sliding knobs on the center and side
air vents to change the direction of the
airflow.
Air vents blow warm air on the side
windows in cold weather. If Floor, Defog,
or Defrost modes are selected, a small
amount of air will come from the vents
close to the window.
To close the front a/c vents, move the
sliding knobs to the full down position.
To close the rear a/c vents, move the sliding
knobs to the full inboard position.
Operation Tips
Clear away any ice, snow, or leaves from
air inlets at the base of the windshield
that could block the flow of air into the
vehicle.
Clear snow off the hood to improve
visibility and help decrease moisture
drawn into the vehicle.
Keep the path under the front seats clear
of objects to help circulate the air inside
of the vehicle more effectively.
Use of non-GM approved hood deflectors
can adversely affect the performance of
the system. Check with your dealer
before adding equipment to the outside
of the vehicle.
Do not attach any devices to the air vent
slats. This will restrict airflow and may
cause damage to the air vents.
Maintenance

The filter should be replaced as part of
routine scheduled maintenance. See
Maintenance Schedule 0 383. To find out
what type of filter to use, see Maintenance
