Operating Tips

Before using the air conditioning
system, open the windows for a
few minutes to permit hot air to
escape. Close the windows when
using the air conditioning system.
Only use GM-approved hood
deflectors on your vehicle.
Keep the area under the front seats
clear of objects to help air circulate
through the vehicle.

Rear Window Defogger

Press to defog your rear
window. The defogger turns off
by itself after approximately
15 minutes if your vehicle is travel-
ling at slower speeds. At higher
speeds, the rear defogger may run
continuously.
If the defogger is reactivated
immediately after completion of
the initial cycle, it will only run for
ten minutes at a time.
The engine must be running in
order for this feature to work.
You can also turn the defogger off
by turning off the ignition or press-
ing the button again.
The outside mirrors are heated
every time the rear defogger is
activated.
NOTICE
Don't use a razor blade or
anything else that is sharp on
the inside of the windshield or
the rear window. You could cut
or damage the warming grid or
the integrated antenna. The
repairs would not be covered
by your warranty.
Do not attach temporary vehicle
license, tape or decals across the
defogger grid on the rear window.
