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 area around the base of the instrument
panel console and air path under the seats clear
of objects to help circulate the air inside of
your vehicle more effectively.
Passenger Compartment Air Filter
The passenger compartment air lter removes certain
odor and particles from the air including pollen and dust
particles. Reductions in airow, which may occur more
often in dusty areas, indicate that the lter may need to

1. With the hood open, unlatch and remove the
