Manual Operation
yMODEz:Pressing the MODE switch and changing
the mode cancels automatic operation and places the
system in manual mode. Press AUTO to return to
automatic operation.
To change the current mode, select one of the following:
F(Vent):This mode directs air to the instrument
panel outlets.
*(Bi-Level):This mode directs approximately half of
the air to the instrument panel outlets, and then
directs most of the remaining air to the ¯oor outlets.
Some air may be directed toward the windshield.
In automatic operation, cooler air is directed to the upper
outlets and warmer air to the ¯oor outlets.
7(Floor):This mode directs most of the air to the
¯oor outlets with some air directed to the outboard
outlets (for the side windows) a little air directed to the
windshield.
The MODE switch can also be used to select the
¯oor/defog mode. Information on defogging and
defrosting can be found later in this section.
y9z(Fan):Press this switch to increase or
decrease the fan speed. Pressing this switch cancels
automatic operation and places the system in manual
mode. Press AUTO to return to automatic operation.
If the air¯ow seems low when the fan speed is at
the highest setting, the passenger compartment air ®lter
may need to be replaced. For more information, see
Passenger Compartment Air Filter on page 3-36andPart A: Scheduled Maintenance Services on
page 6-4.
?(Recirculation):This mode keeps outside air from
coming in the vehicle. It can be used to prevent outside
air and odors from entering your vehicle or to help heat or
cool the air inside your vehicle more quickly. Press this
button to turn the recirculation mode on or off. When the
button is pressed, an indicator light will come on. The
air-conditioning compressor also comes on.
Driver's Temperature Knob:Press this knob to turn
the entire climate control system on or off. Turn this knob
clockwise or counterclockwise to manually increase or
decrease the temperature inside your vehicle.

Operation Tips
·
Clear away any ice, snow or leaves from the air
inlets at the base of the windshield that may
block the ¯ow of air into your vehicle.
·Use of non-GM approved hood de¯ectors may
adversely affect the performance of the system.
·Keep the path under the front seats clear of objects
to help circulate the air inside of your vehicle more
effectively.
·If the air¯ow seems low when the fan speed is at
the highest setting, the passenger compartment
air ®lter may need to be replaced. For more
information, see
Passenger Compartment Air Filter
on page 3-36andPart A: Scheduled Maintenance
Services on page 6-4.
Rear Climate Control System
Your vehicle has a rear climate-control system that
allows the rear-seat passengers to adjust the direction
of the air¯ow, the fan speed and the temperature for the
rear-seating area. This system also works with the
main climate-control system in your vehicle.
The control panel for this system is located on the back
of the center console.
3-34

y9z(Fan):Pressing this switch cancels automatic
operation and places the system in manual mode.
Press this switch to increase or decrease the fan speed.
Press the MODE switch until AUTO is displayed to
return to automatic operation.
yTEMPz(Temperature):Press this switch to
increase or decrease the temperature for the rear seat
passengers.
For cool air to be sent to the rear of the vehicle, the
air-conditioning system on the main climate-control
panel must be on. If it is not on, then the temperature in
the rear of the vehicle will remain at cabin temperature.
Be sure to keep the area under the front seats clear
of any objects so that the air inside of your vehicle can
circulate effectively.
Passenger Compartment Air Filter
The passenger compartment air ®lter traps most of the
pollen from the air entering your vehicle. Like your
vehicle's engine air cleaner/®lter, it may need to
be changed periodically. For how often to change the
passenger compartment air ®lter, see
Part A: Scheduled
Maintenance Services on page 6-4.
The access panel for the passenger compartment air
®lter is located under the hood near the windshield,
on the passenger's side of the vehicle.

Engine Oil
If the CHECK OIL LEVEL message appears on the
instrument cluster, it means you need to check
your engine oil level right away. For more information,
see ªCHECK OIL LEVELº under
DIC Warnings and
Messages on page 3-60.
You should check your engine oil level regularly; this is
an added reminder.

Engine Air Cleaner/Filter
SeeEngine Compartment Overview on page 5-12for
location of engine air cleaner/®lter.
When to Inspect the Engine Air
Cleaner/Filter
Inspect the air cleaner/®lter every 15, 000 miles
(25 000 km) and replace every 30, 000 miles
(50 000 km). If you are driving in dusty/dirty conditions,
inspect the ®lter at each oil change.
How to Inspect the Engine Air
Cleaner/Filter
To inspect the air cleaner/®lter, remove the ®lter from
the vehicle and lightly shake the ®lter to release
loose dust and dirt. If the ®lter remains caked with dirt, a
new ®lter is required.
To inspect or replace the ®lter, do the following:1. Loosen and remove both wing screws on the top of
the engine air cleaner/®lter cover.
2. Lift up the outboard side of the cover at an angle
while pulling toward you. This is necessary due to
the three tabs located on the rear of the cover.
