The rear window defogger turns off about 10 minutes
after the button is pressed when traveling less than
48 km/h (30 mph). If turned on again, the defogger
only runs for about five minutes before turning off.
The defogger can also be turned off by turning off
the engine.
The vehicle has heated outside rearview mirrors.
The mirrors will heat to help clear fog or frost from the
surface of the mirrors when the rear window defogger
button is pressed.
For vehicles with a power convertible top, the rear
window defogger and heated mirrors are automatically
disabled when the power convertible top is moving
or down.
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.Outlet Adjustment
Use the tab located on the air outlets 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 your vehicle.
.Use of non-GM approved hood deflectors may
adversely affect the performance of the system.
.Keep the area around the base of the instrument
panel console and air path under the seats clear of
objects to help circulate the air inside of your
vehicle more effectively.
