Infotainment System 7-9
Fixed Mast Antenna
(Hatchback)
Vehicles without OnStar®have a
fixed mast antenna that can
withstand most car washes without
being damaged. If the mast should
ever become slightly bent,
straighten it out by hand. If the mast
is badly bent, replace it.
Check occasionally to make sure
the mast is still tightened to the
antenna base located on the roof of
the vehicle. If tightening is required,
tighten by hand.
Backglass Antenna
(Sedan)
Vehicles without OnStar®have the
AM-FM antenna integrated with the
rear window defogger, located in the
rear window. Make sure that the
inside surface of the rear window is
not scratched and that the lines on
the glass are not damaged. If the
inside surface is damaged, it could
interfere with radio reception. Also, for proper radio reception, the
antenna connector at the top-center
of the rear window needs to be
properly attached to the post on the
glass.
Notice:
Using a razor blade or
sharp object to clear the inside
rear window can damage the rear
window antenna and/or the rear
window defogger. Repairs would
not be covered by the vehicle
warranty. Do not clear the inside
rear window with sharp objects.
Notice: Do not apply aftermarket
glass tinting with metallic film.
The metallic film in some tinting
materials will interfere with or
distort the incoming radio
reception. Any damage caused to
your backglass antenna due to
metallic tinting materials will not
be covered by the vehicle
warranty. Because this antenna is built into
the rear window, there is a reduced
risk of damage caused by car
washes and vandals.
If static is heard on the radio, when
the rear window defogger is turned
on, it could mean that a defogger
grid line has been damaged. If this
is true, the grid line must be
repaired.
If adding a cellular telephone to the
vehicle, and the antenna needs to
be attached to the glass, make sure
that the grid lines for the AM-FM
antenna are not damaged. There is
enough space between the grid
lines to attach a cellular telephone
antenna without interfering with
radio reception.

Climate Controls 8-3
1(Defrost):This mode quickly
clears the windshield of fog or frost.
Air is directed to the windshield and
side window outlets. When this
mode is selected, the system
automatically runs the
air-conditioning. To defrost the
windows faster, turn the temperature
control to the warmest setting.
Do not drive the vehicle until all the
windows are clear.
A/C (Air Conditioning): For
vehicles with air conditioning, follow
these steps to use the system. Turn
9to the desired speed. The air
conditioning does not operate when
the fan control knob is in the off
position. Press A/C to turn the air
conditioning on and off. When A/C
is pressed, an indicator light comes
on to show that the air conditioning
is on. For quick cool down on hot days, do
the following:
1. Open the windows to let hot air
escape.
2. Press
?.
3. Press A/C.
4. Select the coolest temperature.
5. Select the highest
9speed.
Using these settings together for
long periods of time may cause the
air inside of the vehicle to become
too dry. To prevent this from
happening, after the air in the
vehicle has cooled, turn the
recirculation mode off.
The air conditioning system
removes moisture from the air, so a
small amount of water might drip
under the vehicle while idling or
after turning off the engine. This is
normal.
?(Recirculation): This mode
recirculates and helps to quickly
cool the air inside the vehicle. It can
be used to prevent outside air and
odors from entering the vehicle.
For vehicles with a recirculation
button, press the button to turn the
recirculation mode on. An indicator
light comes on to show that the
recirculation is on. Press the button
again to return to outside air mode.
For vehicles with a lever, move
the lever to choose the
recirculation mode.
Using the recirculation mode for
extended periods may cause the
windows to fog. If this happens,
select the defrost mode.

Black plate (4,1)Chevrolet Aveo Owner Manual - 2011
8-4 Climate Controls
:(Outside Air):This mode
brings outside air into the vehicle.
For vehicles with a recirculation
button, press the button until the
recirculation mode is turned off. The
vehicle then returns to the outside
air mode.
For vehicles with a lever, move the
lever to choose the outside
air mode.
Rear Window and Outside
Mirror Defogger
For vehicles with a rear window and
outside mirror defogger, they only
work when the ignition is turned to
ON/RUN.
The rear window defogger uses a
warming grid to remove fog or frost
from the rear window.
<(Rear Window Defogger):
Press to turn the rear window and
outside mirror defogger on or off. An
indicator light comes on to show
that the feature is on. If the vehicle does not have air
conditioning, the rear window
defogger may turn off about
10 minutes after the button is
pressed. If it remains on, it can be
turned off by pressing
by turning off the engine.
If the vehicle has air conditioning,
the rear window defogger turns off
about 10 minutes after the button is
pressed. The defogger can also be
turned off by turning the engine off.
Notice: Do not use anything
sharp on the inside of the rear
window. If you do, you could cut
or damage the warming grid, and
the repairs would not be covered
by the vehicle warranty. Do not
attach a temporary vehicle
license, tape, a decal, or anything
similar to the defogger grid.
Air Vents
To open an outlet, press on its
cover. Turn the cover to change the
direction of the airflow.
Operation Tips
.Clear away any ice, snow or
leaves from the air inlets at the
base of the windshield that may
block the flow of air into the
vehicle.
.Use of non-GM approved hood
deflectors 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.
