Outlet Adjustment
Use the levers, located in the middle of the front
outlets, to change the direction of the airow.
Use the thumbwheel located between the outlets
to turn them on and off.
If your vehicle has rear seat outlets, adjust the
direction of the airow using the lever in the center
of each outlet.
Operation Tips

Clear away any ice, snow, or leaves from the
air inlets at the base of the windshield that
could block the ow of air into your vehicle.
Use of non-GM approved hood deectors can
adversely affect the performance of the system.
Keep the path under the front seats clear of
objects to help circulate the air inside the
vehicle better.
Passenger Compartment Air Filter
The passenger compartment air lter traps most of
the pollen from the air entering your vehicle. Like
your vehicle’s engine air cleaner/lter, it may need
to be changed periodically. For how often to change
the passenger compartment air lter, see
Scheduled Maintenance on page 442.
The access panel for the passenger compartment
air lter is located under the hood near the
windshield, on the passenger’s side of the vehicle.

To disconnect the jumper cables from both
vehicles, do the following:
1. Disconnect the black negative (−) cable from
the vehicle that had the dead battery.
2. Disconnect the black negative (−) cable from
the vehicle with the good battery.
3. Disconnect the red positive (+) cable from the
vehicle with the good battery.
4. Disconnect the red positive (+) cable from the
other vehicle.
5. Return the positive (+) remote terminal cover
to its original position.
Headlamp Aiming
The vehicle has a visual optical headlamp aiming
system. The aim of the headlamps have been
preset at the factory and should need no further
adjustment.
However, if the vehicle is damaged in an accident,
the aim of the headlamps may be affected and
adjustment may be necessary.
If oncoming vehicles ash their high beams at
you, this may mean the vertical aim of your
headlamps needs to be adjusted.It is recommended that the vehicle is taken to your
dealer for service if the headlamps need to be
adjusted. It is possible however, to re-aim the
headlamps as described in the following procedure.
The vehicle should be properly prepared as
follows:
The vehicle should be placed so the
headlamps are 25 ft. (7.6 m) from a light
colored wall.
The vehicle must have all four tires on a level
surface which is level all the way to the wall.
The vehicle should be placed so it is
perpendicular to the wall.
The vehicle should not have any snow, ice or
mud on it.
The vehicle should be fully assembled and all
other work stopped while headlamp aiming is
being performed.
The vehicle should be normally loaded with a
full tank of fuel and one person or 160 lbs
(75 kg) sitting on the driver’s seat.
Tires should be properly inated.
The spare tire is in its proper location in the
vehicle.
