2007 GMC YUKON climate control

The interior temperature sensors located in the
headliner above the driver side seat and in
the headliner above the second row seats
measure the temperature of the air inside your
vehicle.There is also an exterior temperature sensor
located behind the front grille. This sensor reads
the outside air temperature and helps maintain the
temperature inside the vehicle. Any cover on
the front of the vehicle could cause a false reading
in the displayed temperature.
The climate control system uses the information
from these sensors to maintain your comfort setting
by adjusting the outlet temperature, fan speed, and
the air delivery mode. The system may also supply
cooler air to the side of the vehicle facing the sun.
The recirculation mode will also be used as needed
to maintain cool outlet temperatures.

Defogging and Defrosting
Fog on the inside of the windows is a result of high
humidity (moisture) condensing on the cool window
glass. This can be minimized if the climate control
system is used properly. There are two modes to
clear fog or frost from your windshield.
Use the mode up and down arrows to select the
defog or defrost modes.
-(Defog):The defog mode is used to clear
the windows of fog or moisture and warm
the passengers. This mode directs air to the
windshield, oor outlets, and side window vents.
When you select this mode, the system turns
off recirculation and runs the air conditioning
compressor unless the outside temperature is
close to freezing. The recirculation mode cannot
be selected while in the defog mode. Do not drive
the vehicle until all the windows are clear.
0(Defrost):Press this button to remove fog or
frost from the windshield more quickly. This
mode directs a portion of the air to the windshield
and side window vents and some to the oor
vents. In this mode, the system will automatically
force outside air into your vehicle. The
recirculation mode cannot be selected while in the
defrost mode. The air conditioning compressor
will run automatically in this setting, unless
the outside temperature is close to freezing. Do
not drive the vehicle until all the windows are clear.

Adding outside equipment to the front of your
vehicle, such as hood-air deectors, may
affect the performance of the heating and
air conditioning system. Check with your
dealer before adding equipment to the outside
of your vehicle.
Rear Air Conditioning and Heating
System and Electronic Climate
Controls
If your vehicle has this system, the rear heat and
air conditioning controls are integrated with the
rear seat audio controls located in the center
console. The system can be controlled from the
front controls as well as the rear controls.
When the rear system is on, the front control head
AUX button indicator will be illuminated. Pressing
the front control head AUX button the rst time
will turn the rear system on in a mimic mode.
In this mode, the airow in the rear will be
approximately the same direction, temperature,
and fan speed as the front. Pressing the AUX
button again will turn the rear system and
the indicator off.At anytime, if the rear controls are adjusted, the
system will enter a rear independent mode. Airow
in the rear will then be directed according to the
settings of rear controls. At anytime the rear system
can be turned off by pressing the front control head
AUX button and turning the indicator off.
If the indicator in the front AUX button is off, the
rear system is off.

If the system fails to turn on or activate, the
StabiliTrak®light along with one of the following
messages will be displayed on the Driver
Information Center (DIC): TRACTION CONTROL
OFF, SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL,
STABILITRAK OFF, SERVICE STABILITRAK. If
these DIC messages appear, make sure the
StabiliTrak
®system has not been turned off using
the StabiliTrak®on/off button. Then turn the
steering wheel clockwise from the nine o’clock
position to the three o’clock position. If this clears
the message(s), your vehicle does not need
servicing. If this does not clear the message(s),
then turn the vehicle off, wait 15 seconds, and then
turn it back on again to reset the system. If any
of these messages still appear on the Driver
Information Center (DIC), your vehicle should be
taken in for service. For more information on
the DIC messages, seeDriver Information Center
(DIC) on page 244.The StabiliTrak
®light
will ash on the
instrument panel cluster
when the system is
both on and activated.
You may also feel or hear the system working;
this is normal.

Driving with a Trailer
{CAUTION:
If you have a rear-most window open and
you pull a trailer with your vehicle, carbon
monoxide (CO) could come into your
vehicle. You cannot see or smell CO. It
can cause unconsciousness or death. See
Engine Exhaust on page 156. To maximize
your safety when towing a trailer:
Have your exhaust system inspected
for leaks, and make necessary repairs
before starting on your trip.
Keep the rear-most windows closed.
CAUTION: (Continued)
CAUTION: (Continued)

If exhaust does come into your vehicle
through a window in the rear or
another opening, drive with your front,
main heating or cooling system on
and with the fan on any speed. This
will bring fresh, outside air into your
vehicle. Do not use the climate control
setting for maximum air because it
only recirculates the air inside your
vehicle. SeeDual Automatic Climate
Control System on page 214.
Towing a trailer requires a certain amount of
experience. Before setting out for the open road,
you’ll want to get to know your rig. Acquaint
yourself with the feel of handling and braking with
the added weight of the trailer. And always
keep in mind that the vehicle you are driving is
now a good deal longer and not nearly as
responsive as your vehicle is by itself.

Uniform Tire Quality Grading
Quality grades can be found where applicable on
the tire sidewall between tread shoulder and
maximum section width. For example:
Treadwear 200 Traction AA Temperature A
The following information relates to the system
developed by the United States National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), which
grades tires by treadwear, traction, and
temperature performance. This applies only to
vehicles sold in the United States. The grades are
molded on the sidewalls of most passenger car
tires. The Uniform Tire Quality Grading (UTQG)
system does not apply to deep tread, winter-type
snow tires, space-saver, or temporary use
spare tires, tires with nominal rim diameters of
10 to 12 inches (25 to 30 cm), or to some
limited-production tires.While the tires available on General Motors
passenger cars and light trucks may vary with
respect to these grades, they must also conform
to federal safety requirements and additional
General Motors Tire Performance Criteria (TPC)
standards.Treadwear
The treadwear grade is a comparative rating
based on the wear rate of the tire when tested
under controlled conditions on a specied
government test course. For example, a tire
graded 150 would wear one and a half (1.5) times
as well on the government course as a tire
graded 100. The relative performance of tires
depends upon the actual conditions of their use,
however, and may depart signicantly from
the norm due to variations in driving habits, service
practices, and differences in road characteristics
and climate.
