Automatic Operation
AUTO9(Automatic Fan):When this position
is selected on the fan control, the system will
adjust the fan speed. If the OnStar
®system
is activated when this position is selected,
the climate control fan speed will lower.AUTO (Automatic Mode):
1. Turn the fan control to the AUTO position.
2. Turn the mode control to the AUTO position.
3. Adjust the temperature to a comfortable
setting between 68°F (21°C) and 78°F (26°C).
Choosing the coldest or warmest temperature
setting will not cause the system to heat or cool
any faster. In cold weather, the system will start
at reduced fan speeds to avoid blowing cold air
into your vehicle until warmer air is available.
The system will start out blowing air at the oor
but may change modes automatically as the
vehicle warms up to maintain the chosen
temperature setting. The length of time needed
to warm the interior will depend on the outside
temperature and temperature of the vehicle.
4. Wait 20 to 30 minutes for the system to
stabilize in order for the system to regulate
automatically. Then adjust the temperature
as necessary to nd your comfort setting.
Do not cover the solar sensor located in the
center of the instrument panel near the windshield.
For more information on the solar sensor, see
“Sensors” later in this section.

Page 212 of 518

After the vehicle is started, the display will
show the interior temperature settings and the
outside temperature.
If the AUTO position is selected on the fan or mode
control, the system will automatically control the air
conditioning compressor. The A/C compressor will
run automatically even at cool outside temperatures
in order to dehumidify the air. The A/C indicator
light will be lit when the system is operating
automatically, even at near freezing outside
temperatures. Press the A/C button on the fan
control to turn off the A/C. For improved window
clearing performance in defog or defrost modes,
the A/C compressor will run automatically.
h(AUTO RECIRCULATION):If the AUTO
position is selected on either the fan or mode
control, the system will automatically control the air
inlet to supply fresh outside air or recirculate the
interior air to cool the car faster. The indicator light
on the recirculation button will light whenever the
system switches to recirculation. You may force
outside air by pressing the recirculation button
when the light is lit. For vehicles without rear climate
controls, press the outside air button to force
outside air. The next time AUTO fan or mode is
selected, the air inlet will reset back to AUTO
operation.
Manual Operation
9(Fan):Turn the left control either to the left or
right to adjust the fan speed. Turning this control
completely counterclockwise will turn on the
automatic fan operation. Turning this control to the
“O” position will turn the climate control system off.
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. SeePassenger
Compartment Air Filter on page 220.
9(Off):Turn the left control to this position to
turn the entire climate control system off.
To change the current mode, select one of the
following positions using the right control:
AUTO:Turn the control to this position to turn on
the automatic delivery mode operation.
F(Vent):Turn the control to this mode to direct
air to the instrument panel outlets.
*(Bi-Level):Turn the control to this mode to
direct approximately half of the air to the instrument
panel outlets and most of the remaining air to the

VSet/Reset:Press this button to reset certain
DIC features and to acknowledge DIC warning
messages and clear them from the DIC display.
yzMenu Up/Down:Press this button to scroll
up and down the menu items.
Trip/Fuel Display Menu Items
3
(Trip/Fuel):The following display menu
items can be displayed by pressing the trip/fuel
button:
TRIP A or TRIP B
These displays show the current distance traveled
since the last reset for each trip odometer in either
miles (mi) or kilometers (km). Both odometers can
be used at the same time. Each trip odometer can
be reset to zero separately by pressing and holding
the set/reset button for a few seconds while the
desired trip odometer is displayed.
FUEL RANGE
This display shows the approximate number
of remaining miles (mi) or kilometers (km) you can
drive without re lling the fuel tank. This estimate
is based on the current driving conditions and
will change if the driving conditions change.
For example, if you are driving in traffic and
making frequent stops, the display may read
one number, but if you enter the freeway,
the number may change even though you still
have the same amount of fuel in the fuel tank.
This is because different driving conditions
produce different fuel economies. Generally,
freeway driving produces better fuel economy
than city driving.
Once the range drops below an estimated
40 miles (64 km) remaining, the display will
show FUEL RANGE LOW.
If your vehicle is low on fuel, the FUEL LEVEL
LOW message will be displayed. See “FUEL
LEVEL LOW” underDIC Warnings and Messages
on page 246for more information.

display, press the set/reset button. The display will
return to zero.
INST (Instantaneous) ECONOMY (IFE)
This display shows the current fuel economy
in either miles per gallon (mpg) or liters per
100 kilometers (L/100 km). This number re ects
only the fuel economy that the vehicle has right now
and will change frequently as driving conditions
change. Unlike average economy, this display
cannot be reset.

To reset the timer, press and hold the set/reset
button after the timer has been stopped.
The display will return to zero.
AVERAGE SPEED
This display shows the average speed of the
vehicle in either miles per hour (mph) or kilometers
per hour (km/h). This average is calculated based
on the various vehicle speeds recorded since the
last reset of this display. To reset this display, press
the set/reset button. The display will return to zero.
