When you open either front door, or open a rear door,
the lamps inside your vehicle will go
on. These lamps
will fade off after about
40 seconds, or when the ignition
is turned on.
If the ignition has been off for less than two minutes,
the lamps inside your vehicle will stay on for about
15 seconds to provide an illuminated exit when you
remove the key from the ignition.
After you exit the vehicle and all of the doors have been
closed,
the lamps will stay on for an additional four
seconds before fading
off.
Battery Rundown Protection
Your Chevrolet is equipped with a Battery Rundown
Protection feature designed
to protect your vehicle’s
battery.
When any interior lamp (trunk, reading, dome, glove
box, etc.) is left
on and the ignition is turned OFF, the
Battery Rundown Protection system will automatically
turn the lamp
off after 20 minutes. This will avoid
draining the battery. This system does not protect
against leaving on the headlamps.
To reactivate the interior lamps, either:
The ignition must be turned on,
The activated lamp switch must be turned off, then
on, OR
A door must be opened.
The Battery
Rundown Protection feature will also be
activated when any door is
left open.
If your vehicle is left with the ignition off for over
24 days, the battery power to the clock and audio
system will turn off to reduce the battery drain. When
the ignition is turned on again, battery power will be
resupplied. Under these conditions it will be necessary
to reset the clock and audio system settings.

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, adjust the
mode knob
to FLOOR and the fan to the highest
speed 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 cle.ar of
objects. This helps air circulate throughout your
vehicle.
