~ Rear Window Defogger (Option)
‘c
The
rear window defogger uses a warming grid to
remove fog from the rear window.
Press the switch to turn on the defogger. An indicator
light will come on to remind you that the defogger is on.
The defogger
will turn off automaticaliy after about ten
minutes of use.
If you turn it on again, the defogger will
operate for about five minutes only.
You can also turn
the defogger off by pressing the switch again.
Do not attach agything like a temporary vehicle license
or a decal acr0s.s the defogger grid on the rear window.
I NOTICE:
Don’t use a razor blade or something else sharp
on the inside
of the rear window. If you do, you
could cut
or damage the warming grid, and the
repairs wouldn’t be covered by your warranty.
Flow-Through Ventilation System
Your Pontiac’s flow-through ventilation system supplies
outside
air into the vehicle when it is moving. Outside air
will also enter the vehicle when the blower fan is running.
Ventilation Tips
0 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.
0 When you enter a vehicle in cold weather, turn the
fan control
knob to the right 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.

Headlamps
The headlamp wiring is protected by a circuit breaker.
An electrical overload will cause the larnps to
go on and
off, or in some cases to remain off. If this happens, have
your headlamp wiring checked right away.
Windshield Wipers
The windshield wiper motor is protected by a circuit
breaker and
a fuse. If the motor overheats due to heavy
snow, etc., the wiper will stop until the motor cools.
If
the overload is caused by some electrical problem and
not snow, etc., be sure to get it fixed.
Power Windows and Other Power Options
Circuit breakers protect the power windows and other
power accessories. When the current load is
too heavy,
the circuit breaker opens and closes, protecting the
circuit until the problem is fixed or goes away.
