Heating
The heater works best if you keep your
windows closed while using it.
1. Turn the air control knob to .
2. Turn the fan control knob to the right.
3. Turn the temperature control knob to a
comfortable setting.
I
During initial start-up only, if your
vehicle is equipped
with an optional
engine block heater,
you can use it in cold
weather (around
+20°F/-8 “C or lower) to
heat the passenger area better than
without it. Because an engine block heater
warms the engine coolant, your vehicle’s
heating system can more efficiently
provide heat for the passenger area
of
your vehicle. See “Engine Block Heater”
in the Index.
Bi-level Heating
You may want to use bi-level heating on
cool, but sunny days. This setting directs
cool air toward your body and warmer air
toward your feet.

Air Conditioner Controls (OPTION)
The
air conditioning system uses the same
controls as the heating system, except that
the air control
knob has two extra
settings, described below. For an
explanation of all
the controls, see
“Heater Controls” earlier in this part.

MAX: Provides maximum cooling or
quick cool-down
on very hot days. This
setting recirculates most of
the air inside
your vehicle. If it is used for long periods
of time, the air may become dry. This
setting directs air through the upper air
vents.
A/C: Use for normal cooling on hot days.
This setting cools outside air and directs
it
through the upper air vents.
The air conditioner compressor operates
in MAX, A/C and in 9, t2 and 9
when the outside temperature is above
freezing. When the air conditioner is on,
you may sometimes notice slight changes
in your vehicle’s engine speed and power.

your windows closed. On very hot days,
open

the hot air to escape.

(OPTION)
The rear window defogger uses a
warming grid to remove fog from the rear
window.
Press the right side of the switch to turn
on the defogger. An indicator light will
come on to remind you that the defogger
is on. 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 left side
of the switch.
Do not attach anything like a temporary
vehicle license or a decal across the
defogger grid on the rear window.

System
Your Chevrolet's flow-through ventilation
system supplies 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.
When you enter a vehicle
in cold
weather, turn the fan control knob to
the right 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.
D Keep the air path under the front seats
clear of objects. This helps air to
circulate throughout your vehicle.
Audio Systems
Your Delco@ audio system has been
designed to operate easily and give years
of listening pleasure. But you will get the
most enjoyment out of
it if you acquaint
yourself
with it first. Find out what your
Delco@ system can do and how to operate
all its controls, to be sure you’re getting
the most out of the advanced engineering
that went into
it.
