Defogging Windows with
Air Conditioning System
Slide the lower lever to HOT.
To defog the front windshield, set the
upper lever to
DEF and turn the fan
control to HI.
To defog the side windows, set the

side vents toward the side windows. For
increased air flow to the side vents,
close the center vents.
Rear Window Defogger (omoN)
The rear window defogger uses a
warming grid to remove fog from the
rear window. Press the
a button and
an indicator light will glow. The
defogger will turn
off automatically after
about ten minutes of use. If you
turn it
on again, the defogger will operate for
about five minutes
only. You can also
turn the defogger off by pressing the

?ear Window Defogger (cow.)
Don’t use a razor blade or something
else sharp on the inside
of the rear
window. If you do,
you could cut
or damage
the warming grid, and
the repairs wouldn’t be covered by
your warranty.
Flow-Through Ventilation System
Your Chevrolet’s flow-through
ventilation system lets outside air into
the vehicle
when it is moving. Outside
air
will also enter the vehicle when the
heater or the air conditioning fan is
running.
Ventilation Tips
Keep the hood and front air inlet free
of ice, snow, or any other obstruction
(such as leaves). The heater and
defroster
will work far better, reducing
the chance
of fogging the inside of
your windows.
In cold weather, turn the blower fan to
HI for a few moments before driving
off.
This helps clear the intake ducts
of snow and moisture, and reduces the
chance of fogging the inside of your
windows.
Keep the air path under the front seats
clear of objects. This helps air
to
circulate throughout your vehicle.
