Rear Safety Belt Comfort Guides for
Children and Small Adults
Rear shoulder belt comfort guides provide added safety
belt comfort for older children who have outgrown
booster seats and for small adults. When installed on a
shoulder belt, the comfort guide better positions the
belt away from the neck and head.
There is one guide for each outside passenger position
in the rear seat. To provide added safety belt comfort
for children who have outgrown child restraints and
booster seats and for smaller adults, the comfort guides
may be installed on the shoulder belts. Here is how
to install a comfort guide and use the safety belt:
1. Remove the guide from its storage pocket on the
side of the seatback.

4. Buckle, position and release the safety belt as
described inRear Seat Passengers on page 1-20.
Make sure that the shoulder belt crosses
the shoulder.
To remove and store the comfort guides, squeeze the
belt edges together so that you can take them out of the
guides. Slide the guide into its storage pocket on the
side of the seatback.
Safety Belt Extender
If the vehicle’s safety belt will fasten around you, you
should use it.
But if a safety belt is not long enough, your dealer will
order you an extender. It is free. When you go in to
order it, take the heaviest coat you will wear, so
the extender will be long enough for you. To help avoid
personal injury, do not let someone else use it, and
use it only for the seat it is made to t. The extender has
been designed for adults. Never use it for securing
child seats. To wear it, just attach it to the regular safety
belt. For more information see the instruction sheet
that comes with the extender.

Outlet Adjustment
Use the thumbwheel located in the middle of the front
outlets to change the direction of the airow and to open
and close the outlets.
Use the thumbwheel located between the rear
passenger outlets to open and close the outlets. Adjust
the direction of the airow from side to side with the
levers in the center of each rear outlet.
Operation Tips

Clear away any ice, snow or leaves from the air
inlets at the base of the windshield that may
block the ow of air into your vehicle.
Use of non-GM approved hood deectors 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.
If the airow seems low when the fan is at the
highest setting, the passenger compartment air lter
may need to be replaced. SeePassenger
Compartment Air Filter on page 3-30.
Passenger Compartment Air Filter
Passenger compartment air, both outside air and
recirculated air, is routed through a passenger
compartment lter, which is part of a three piece lter
system. The lter removes certain particles from the air,
including pollen and dust particles. Reductions in
airow, which may occur more quickly in dusty areas,
indicate that the lter needs to be replaced early.
The particle lter is located inside of the air control
module. The air control module is located behind
an access panel near the accelerator pedal.
