If your vehicle has the rear window defogger a warming
grid is used to remove fog from the rear window.
<(Rear):Press this button to turn the rear window
defogger on or off.
An indicator light in the button will come on to let you
know that the rear window defogger is activated.
The rear window defogger will turn off approximately

additional warming time, press the button again.
If your vehicle has heated mirrors, they will come on
when this button is pressed.
Notice:Do not use a razor blade or sharp object
to clear the inside rear window. Do not adhere
anything to the defogger grid lines in the rear glass.
These actions may damage the rear defogger.
Repairs would not be covered by your warranty.
Outlet Adjustment
Use the air outlets located in the center and on the side
of the instrument panel to direct the air ow. Use the
thumbwheels near the air outlets to open or close off
the air ow.
Operation Tips
Clear away any ice, snow, or leaves from air inlets
at the base of the windshield that could block the
ow of air 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 de ectors can
adversely affect the performance of the system.
Check with your dealer/retailer before adding
equipment to the outside of your vehicle.
Rear Climate Control System
Your vehicle has one of the following rear climate
control systems. With either of these systems, the rear
climate controls will be disabled when the front
climate control system is in defrost. This occurs to
provide maximum air ow to clear the windshield.
