Climate Controls 211
AUTOhis displayed when the
system is automatically controlling
the combination of outside and
recirculated air for best
performance.
Rear Window Defogger
The rear window defogger uses a
warming grid to remove fog or frost
from the rear window. It only works
when the ignition is in ON/RUN.
+REAR (Rear Window
Defogger) : Press to turn the rear
window defogger on or off. The
indicator on the button turns on. The
rear window defogger turns off
automatically if it is left on.
Caution
Using a razor blade or sharp
object on the inside rear window
can damage the antenna or
defogger. Repairs would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.
Do not stick anything to the rear
window. Heated Mirrors :
If equipped with
heated outside rearview mirrors, the
mirrors heat to help clear fog or frost
from the surface of the mirror when
the rear window defog button is
pressed. See Heated Mirrors 038
ii.
Sensors
The automatic climate control
system uses sensors to maintain
temperatures. The solar sensor is
on the instrument panel near the
windshield, and the outside
temperature sensor is in front of the
radiator.
The solar sensor monitors the solar
radiation when operating in AUTO
mode, adjusting the temperature,
fan speed and air delivery.
The system may also supply cooler
air to the side of the vehicle facing
the sun. The recirculation mode will
also be activated, as necessary.
The outside temperature sensor can
be affected by radiant heat when
the vehicle is not moving. To prevent false temperature
readings, the displayed temperature
will not update at low vehicle
speeds.
If the vehicle has been turned off for
less than four hours, the
temperature at start up will be
recalled from previous operation.
Do not cover the sensors; otherwise
the automatic climate control system
will not work properly.
Remote Start Climate Control
Operation
If equipped with the remote start
feature, when it is activated, the
climate control system will use the
previous settings. See
Remote
Vehicle Start 029
ii.
Regular Operation
Adjusting the Temperature
When the climate control system
has stabilized, adjust the
temperature to a comfortable
setting.

OnStar services, system limitations,
and OnStar terms and conditions:

OnStar services cannot work unless
the vehicle is in a place where
OnStar has an agreement with a
wireless service provider for service
in that area. The wireless service
provider must also have coverage,
network capacity, reception, and
technology compatible with OnStar
services. Service involving location
information about the vehicle cannot
work unless GPS signals are
available, unobstructed, and
compatible with the OnStar
hardware. OnStar services may not
work if the OnStar equipment is not
properly installed or it has not been
properly maintained. If equipment or
software is added, connected,
or modified, OnStar services may
not work. Other problems beyond
the control of OnStar —such as
hills, tall buildings, tunnels, weather,
electrical system design and
architecture of the vehicle, damage
to the vehicle in a crash, or wireless
phone network congestion or
jamming —may prevent service. See
Radio Frequency Statement
