Fog Lamps
If your vehicle is
equipped with a fog
lamp button, it is located
to the right of the
steering wheel and
above the radio.
The ignition must be on to turn your fog lamps on.
Push the button to turn the fog lamps on. An
indicator light on the cluster will come on when the
fog lamps are on. Push the button again to turn
the fog lamps off.
The parking lamps will automatically turn on and
off when the fog lamps are turned on and off.
The fog lamps will turn off while the high-beam
headlamps are turned on.
Some localities have laws that require the
headlamps to be on along with the fog lamps.
Instrument Panel Brightness
The control for this
feature is located to the
right of the steering
wheel and above
the radio.
Move the thumbwheel to the left to dim the lights
or to the right to brighten the lights.
The dome lamps will turn on when the thumbwheel
is moved completely to the right.
166

Mirror Reading Lamps
Your vehicle may have reading lamps on the
rearview mirror. Push the button to turn the reading
lamps on and off. The reading lamps will
automatically come on when a door is open.
Rear Reading Lamps
Push the lens to turn the reading lamps on
and off.
Electric Power Management
The vehicle has Electric Power Management
(EPM) that estimates the battery’s temperature and
state of charge. It then adjusts the voltage for
best performance and extended life of the battery.
When the battery’s state of charge is low, the
voltage is raised slightly to quickly put the charge
back in. When the state of charge is high, the
voltage is lowered slightly to prevent overcharging.
If the vehicle has a voltmeter gage or voltage
display on the Driver Information Center (DIC), you
may see the voltage move up or down. This is
normal. If there is a problem, an alert will be
displayed.The battery can be discharged at idle if the
electrical loads are very high. This is true for all
vehicles. This is because the generator (alternator)
may not be spinning fast enough at idle to
produce all the power that is needed for very high
electrical loads.
A high electrical load occurs when several of the
following loads are on: headlamps, high beams,
fog lamps, rear window defogger, climate
control fan at high speed, heated seats, engine
cooling fans, trailer loads, and loads plugged into
accessory power outlets.
EPM works to prevent excessive discharge of the
battery. It does this by balancing the generator’s
output and the vehicle’s electrical needs.
It can increase engine idle speed to generate
more power, whenever needed.
Battery Run-Down Protection
Your vehicle has a battery saver feature designed
to protect your vehicle’s battery.
When any interior lamp 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.

@(Recirculate):Press this button to prevent
outside air and odors from entering your vehicle or
to help heat or cool the air inside your vehicle
more quickly. An indicator light above the symbol
will come on in this mode. The air conditioning
compressor also comes on. This mode is not
available for oor, defog and defrost modes. When
the recirculation button is pressed, the recirculation
indicator light will ash ve times and outside
air will be delivered. Operation in this mode during
periods of high humidity and cool outside
temperatures may result in increased window
fogging. If window fogging is experienced, select
the defrost mode.
;(Outside Air):Press this button to allow
outside air to circulate through your vehicle.
An indicator light above the symbol will come on
in this mode.
#(Air Conditioning):Press this button to turn
the air conditioning system on or off. When
this button is pressed, an indicator light below the
symbol will come on to let you know the air
conditioning is activated.
On hot days, open the windows to let hot inside
air escape; then close them. This helps to reduce
the time it takes for your vehicle to cool down.
It also helps the system to operate more efficiently.
For quick cool down on hot days:
1. Select the vent mode.
2. Select the recirculation mode.
3. Select air conditioning.
4. Select the coolest temperature.
5. Select the highest fan speed.
Using these settings together for long periods of
time may cause the air inside of your vehicle
to become too dry. To prevent this from
happening, after the air in your vehicle has cooled,
turn off the recirculation by pressing the outside
air button.

Rear Window Defogger
The rear window defogger uses a warming grid to
remove fog from the rear window.
The rear window defogger will only work when the
ignition is in RUN.
<(Rear):Press the button to turn the rear
window defogger on or off. Be sure to clear
as much snow from the rear window as possible.
An indicator light below the symbol will come
on to let you know that the rear window defogger
is activated.
The rear window defogger will turn off
approximately 15 minutes after the button is
pressed. If turned on again, the defogger will only
run for approximately seven minutes before
turning off. If turned on again, the defogger will
only run for approximately seven minutes before
turning off. If vehicle speed is greater than 50 mph
(80 km/h) and the rear defogger is active, it will
remain on as long as the speed is greater
than 50 mph (80 km/h). The defogger can also be
turned off by pressing the button again or by
turning off the engine.Notice:Do not use anything sharp on the
inside of the rear window. If you do, you could
cut or damage the warming grid, and the
repairs would not be covered by your warranty.
Do not attach a temporary vehicle license,
tape, a decal or anything similar to the
defogger grid.
Outlet Adjustment
Rotate the outlets and move the outlet vanes to
change the direction of the airow and to open and
close the outlets.
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.
