Maximum Air Conditioning - Pontiac G6 2009 Owner's Manual

?
(Recirculation): Press the left side of the button
to turn the recirculation mode on. An indicator light comes
on to show that it is on. The air inside the vehicle is
recirculated through the climate control system and
throughout the vehicle, not from outside. This helps to
limit the odors entering the vehicle and maximize air
conditioning performance. The indicator light flashes
three times if you try to use recirculation in a mode that
it can not be used in. Use this mode only when it is
needed for comfort, since window fogging occurs if
the air conditioning compressor is not engaged.
?
Press to cancel the outside air mode. When
you switch to the defog or defrost modes the system
automatically moves from recirculation to outside air.
When the vehicle or fan is turned off and back on, the
system automatically defaults to outside air.
#
(Air Conditioning): Press to turn the air
conditioning system on or off. An indicator light
comes on to indicate that the air conditioning is on.
The air conditioning system removes moisture from
the air, so sometimes a small amount of water drips
under the vehicle while it is idling or after the engine
is turned off. This is normal.

Maximum Air Conditioning

On hot days, open the windows to let hot inside air
escape; then close them. This helps to reduce the time
it takes for the vehicle to cool down. It also helps the
system to operate more efficiently.
For quick cool down on hot days, do the following:
C
1. Select the vent mode.
2. Select the highest fan speed.
#
3. Select air conditioning.
?
4. Select the recirculation mode.
5. Select the coolest temperature.
Using these settings together for long periods of time
can cause the air inside of the vehicle to become too dry.
To prevent this from happening, after the air in the vehicle
has cooled, turn the recirculation mode off.
