Air Vents - Chevrolet 2013 Malibu Owner's Manual

Sensors
The solar sensor located on top of
the instrument panel near the
windshield monitors the solar heat.
The climate control system uses
the sensor information to adjust
the temperature, fan speed,
recirculation, and air delivery mode
for best comfort.
If the sensor is covered, the
automatic climate control system
may not work properly.
