190 Climate Controls
Remote Start Climate Control Operation :
If equipped with remote start, the climate
control system may run when the vehicle is
started remotely. If equipped with heated or
ventilated seats or a heated steering wheel,
these features may come on during a
remote start. SeeRemote Vehicle Start 018,
Heated and Ventilated Front Seats 049, and
Heated Steering Wheel 099.
Sensors
The solar sensor, on top of the instrument
panel near the windshield, monitors the
solar heat. The climate control system uses the sensor
information to adjust the temperature, fan
speed, recirculation, and air delivery mode
for best comfort.
Do not cover the sensor; otherwise the
automatic climate control system may not
work properly.
Afterblow Feature
If equipped, under certain conditions, the
fan may stay on or may turn on and off
several times after you turn off and lock the
vehicle. This is normal.
Air Vents
Use the sliding knobs on the center and side
air vents to change the direction of the
airflow.
Air vents blow warm air on the side
windows in cold weather. If Floor, Defog,
or Defrost modes are selected, a small
amount of air will come from the vents
closest to the window.
To close the front A/C vents, move the
sliding knobs to the full down position for
vertical slats or away from you for
horizontal slats.To close the rear A/C vents, move the
sliding knobs to the full inboard position.
Operation Tips
.Clear away any ice, snow, or leaves from
air inlets at the base of the windshield
that could block airflow.
.Clear snow off the hood to improve
visibility and help decrease moisture
drawn into the vehicle.
.Keep the path under the front seats clear
of objects to help circulate the air inside
of the vehicle more effectively.
.Use of non-GM approved hood deflectors
can adversely affect system performance.
Check with your dealer before adding
equipment to the outside of the vehicle.
.Do not attach any devices to the air vent
slats. Doing so restricts airflow and may
cause damage to the air vents.
Maintenance
Passenger Compartment Air Filter
The filter reduces the dust, pollen, and other
airborne irritants from outside air that is
pulled into the vehicle.
