Outlet Adjustment; Passenger Compartment Air Filter - Cadillac XLR-V 2006 Owner's Manual

Outlet Adjustment

Use the thumbwheel to open or close the outlets.
Operation Tips
•
Clear away any ice, snow or leaves from the air
inlets at the base of the windshield 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 area around the base of the instrument
panel console and air path under the seats clear
of objects to help circulate the air inside of
your vehicle more effectively.

Passenger Compartment Air Filter

The passenger compartment air filter removes certain
odor and particles from the air including pollen and dust
particles. Reductions in airflow, which may occur more
often in dusty areas, indicate that the filter may need to
be replaced early.
The filter should be replaced as part of the routine
scheduled maintenance. See Scheduled Maintenance
on page 7-4 for more information.
To check or replace the air filter, do the following:
1. With the hood open, unlatch and remove the
access panel.
The passenger compartment air filter and access
panel are located on the passenger's side of
the engine compartment near the battery.
See Engine Compartment Overview on page 6-12
for more information on location.
2. Pull the old filter out of the housing.
3. Insert the new filter into the housing. The filter should
be fully inserted with the arrows pointing up.
4. Reinstall the air filter access panel.
