Mirrors
Manual Rearview Mirror
When you are sitting in a comfortable driving position,
adjust the mirror so you can see clearly behind your
vehicle. Grip the mirror in the center to move it up or
down and side to side. The day/night adjustment allows
you to adjust the mirror to avoid glare from the lamps
behind you. Push the tab forward for daytime use and pull
it for nighttime use.
If you have a cargo van without the rear door glass,
your vehicle may not have an inside rearview mirror.
Outside Manual Mirror
Adjust the mirrors by pressing the mirror up and down
and left and right so you can see a little of the side of
your vehicle, and have a clear view of objects behind you.
The mirrors can be folded in to enter narrow
passageways.
On the lower portion of each mirror is an auxiliary
convex mirror. A convex mirror’s surface is curved so
you can see more from the driver’s seat. The auxiliary
convex mirrors can be adjusted manually by pressing
the mirror.
Outside Camper-Type Mirrors
If your vehicle has these
camper-type mirrors, they
can be adjusted manually
so you can have a clear
view of the objects
behind you.
On the lower portion of each mirror there is an auxiliary
convex mirror that can be adjusted manually to provide
an extended field of view.
The mirrors can be manually folded in or out.

Rear Window Defogger
Some vehicles may have a rear window defogger.
<(Rear Window Defogger):Press this button to turn
the rear window defogger on or off. Be sure to clear
as much snow from the window as possible.
The rear window defogger uses a warming grid to
remove fog or frost from the rear window and only
works when the ignition is in ON/RUN.
The rear window defogger turns off several minutes after
the button is pressed. If turned on again, the defogger
will run for several more minutes before turning off.
The defogger can also be turned off by pressing the
button again or by turning off the engine.
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 outlets located near the center and on the sides
of the instrument panel to change the direction of 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 path under the front seats clear of objects
to help circulate the air inside of your vehicle more
effectively.

Mode Control:Turn the center knob clockwise or
counterclockwise to change the direction of the airflow
in the rear seating area.
To change the current mode, select one of the following:
H(Vent):This mode directs air to the upper outlets,
with a little air directed to the floor outlets.
2(Floor):This mode directs most of the air to the
floor outlets.
Temperature Control:Turn the right knob clockwise
or counterclockwise to increase or decrease the
temperature in the rear-seating area.
The air-conditioning system on the main climate control
panel must be turned on to direct cooled air to the
rear of the vehicle. If it is not on, then the temperature
in the rear of the vehicle remains at cabin temperature.
Be sure to keep the area under the front seats clear
of any objects so that the air inside of your vehicle can
circulate effectively.
For information on how to use the main climate control
system, seeClimate Control System on page 3-19.
For information on ventilation, seeOutlet Adjustment
on page 3-21.
Warning Lights, Gages, and
Indicators
This part describes the warning lights and gages that
may be on your vehicle. The pictures will help you
locate them.
Warning lights and gages can signal that something
is wrong before it becomes serious enough to cause an
expensive repair or replacement. Paying attention to
your warning lights and gages could also save you
or others from injury.
Warning lights come on when there may be or is a
problem with one of your vehicle’s functions. As you
will see in the details on the next few pages, some
warning lights come on briefly when you start the engine
just to let you know they’re working. If you are familiar
with this section, you should not be alarmed when
this happens.
Gages can indicate when there may be or is a problem
with one of your vehicle’s functions. Often gages and
warning lights work together to let you know when
there’s a problem with your vehicle.
When one of the warning lights comes on and stays
on when you are driving, or when one of the gages shows
there may be a problem, check the section that tells you
what to do about it. Please follow this manual’s advice.
Waiting to do repairs can be costly – and even
dangerous. So please get to know your warning lights
and gages. They’re a big help.
