speed remains at this speed until it is turned to AUTO
or adjusted to a different level. In the automatic position,
the blower might go to a lower speed during an

To change the current mode, select one of the following:
AUTO:Turns on the automatic delivery mode

F(Vent):Air is directed to the instrument panel outlets.
*(Bi-Level):Air is directed to the instrument panel

air directed to the outboard outlets, side window
outlets, and defroster outlet.
W(Defog):This mode clears the windows of fog or
moisture. Air is directed to the windshield and oor

If recirculation mode is selected while using the
defog mode, the system recirculates air for about
10 minutes and then returns to outside air mode.

When the rear window defogger is pressed, the heated
outside mirrors come on. They help to clear fog or
frost from the surface of the mirror. SeeOutside Heated
Mirrors on page 2-40.

anything to the defogger grid lines in the rear glass.
These actions may damage the rear defogger.
Repairs would not be covered by your warranty.

change the direction of the airow. Use the thumbwheels
to open or close the outlets.
Operation Tips

Clear away any ice, snow, or leaves from the air
inlets at the base of the windshield that could
block the ow of air into the vehicle.
Use of non-GM approved hood deectors 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 the vehicle more
effectively.
If the airow seems low when the fan speed is at
the highest setting, the passenger compartment
air lter might need to be replaced. For more
information, seePassenger Compartment Air Filter
on page 3-28.
Set the climate control system to AUTO fan and
mode and then adjust the temperature setting
up or down a few degrees for best comfort.
