Heater Controls
OFF: Press to turn the system off.
Some air will still come from the
outlets at the floor. Press any function
button to turn the system on.
Temperature Control Lever: This
lever changes the temperature
of the
air coming through the system. The
farther the lever is to the right, the
warmer the air.
8: Selects the force of air you want.
Press
V to lower the fan speed, A to
raise it.
Heating and Ventilation
There are three settings to heat and
ventilate your vehicle. For each setting,
set the temperature control lever to a
comfortable setting.
HEAT: Press to direct heated air
through the heater ducts. Some heated
air will also come through the
windshield defroster vents.
BI-LEV: Use on cool, but sunny days.
This setting brings in the outside air,
but directs it in two ways. The cool air is directed to the upper portion of your
body through the instrument panel
outlets, but most warmed air is directed
through the heater ducts and
a little to
the defrost and side window vents. At
times this temperature difference may
be more apparent than others.
VENT: Press to direct air through the
instrument panel outlets. Useful when
outside temperatures are mild and little
heating is necessary.
Defogging and Defrosting
There are two settings for clearing your
windows. For each setting, set the
temperature control lever to a
comfortable setting.
BLEND: Press to direct air through
the floor vents and windshield vents
equally. Useful when you need defrosting but want to keep the
passenger compartment warm, too.
cifi, (Defrost): Press to direct air
through the windshield defroster vents
and vents near the side windows. Some
air will also come through the heater
ducts.

Air Conditioning (CONT.)
Heating and Ventilation
When you don’t need to cool the
outside air, use these next settings.
You
can leave the air as it is or heat it.
The air conditioner compressor doesn’t
run in the
VENT and HEAT settings.
This reduces the engine load, resulting
in improved fuel economy (gas
mileage).
VENT: For mild outside temperatures,
when little heating or cooling is needed,
push
VENT. Air flow is through the
instrument panel outlets. Slide the
temperature control lever to a
comfortable level.
HEAT When outside temperatures are
cold, push
HEAT. This will send most
of the heated air through the ducts near
the floor. The rest will come out of the
defroster vents and side window
defogger vents.
Defogging and Defrosting
There are two settings for clearing your
windows. For each setting, adjust the
temperature control as desired. The air
conditioner compressor will run in
these settings to remove moisture from
the air when the temperature is above
freezing.
BLEND: This setting allows half of the
air to flow to the floor heater ducts, and
half to
go to the windshield and side
window vents located in the windshield
pillars. Use this setting to warm
passengers while keeping the
windshield clear.
The setting directs
90
through the defroster vents and the side
window vents, and
10% to the floor.

Flow-Through Ventilation System
Your Chevrolet’s flow-through
ventilation system supplies outside air
into the vehicle when it is moving.
Outside air will
also enter the vehicle
when the heater or the air conditioning
fan is running.
I
Ventilation Tips
Keep the hood and front air inlet free
of ice, snow, or any other obstruction
(such as leaves). The heater and
defroster will work far better,
reducing the chance of fogging the
inside of your windows.
When you enter a vehicle in cold
weather, set the blower fan to the
highest setting for a few moments
before driving
off. This helps clear the
intake ducts of snow and moisture,
and reduces the chance of fogging the
inside of your windows.
Keep the air path under the front
seats clear
of objects. This helps air to
circulate throughout your vehicle.
