To change the current mode, select one of the
following:
H(Vent):This mode directs air to the instrument
panel outlets.
)(Bi-Level):This mode directs about half of
the air to the instrument panel outlets and
half to the oor outlets. A little air is directed
towards the windshield and side window outlets.
Cooler air is directed to the upper outlets and
warmer air to the oor outlets.
6(Floor):This mode directs most of the air to
the oor outlets, with some of the air directed
to the windshield, side window outlets, and
second row oor outlets. In this mode, the system
automatically selects outside air. Recirculation
cannot be selected when in Floor Mode.The right knob can also be used to select defog

Defogging and Defrosting
Fog on the inside of the windows is a result of
high humidity (moisture) condensing on the
cool window glass. This can be minimized if the
climate control system is used properly. There
are two modes to clear fog or frost from the
windshield. Turn the right knob clockwise to
select the defog or defrost mode.
-(Defog):The defog mode is used to clear
the windows of fog or moisture and warm
the passengers. This mode directs air to the
windshield, oor outlets, and side window vents.
When you select this mode, the system turns
off recirculation and runs the air conditioning
compressor unless the outside temperature is less
than 40°F (4°C). The recirculation mode cannot
be selected while in the defog mode. Do not drive
the vehicle until all the windows are clear.
0(Defrost):The defrost mode is used to
remove fog or frost from the windshield more
quickly. This mode directs most of the air to the
windshield and side window vents and some
to the oor vents. In this mode, the system will
automatically force outside air into your vehicle.
The recirculation mode cannot be selected while in
the defrost mode. The air conditioning compressor
will run automatically in this setting, unless the
outside temperature is less than 40°F (4°C).
Do not drive the vehicle until all the windows
are clear.

the engine. Do not drive the vehicle until all the
windows are clear.
If your vehicle has heated outside rearview
mirrors, the mirrors will heat to help clear fog or
frost from the surface of the mirror when the
rear window defog 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 slider switch in the center of the outlet,
to change the direction of the air ow. Use
the thumbwheel near the outlet to control the
amount of air ow or to shut off the airow
completely.
Keep all outlets open whenever possible for best
system performance.
Operation Tips
Clear away any ice, snow, or leaves from the
air inlets at the base of the windshield that
can block the ow of air into the vehicle.
Use of non-GM approved hood deectors can
adversely affect the performance of the
system.
Keep the path under all seats clear of objects
to help circulate the air inside the vehicle
more effectively.
If fogging reoccurs while in vent or bi-level
modes with mild temperature throughout
the vehicle, turn on the air conditioner
to reduce windshield fogging.
