transmission cannot turn off automatic headlamps
unless the gear position is in PARK (P) and

Reading Lamps
Your vehicle has reading lamps. Press the button

These lamps will not come on with the dome lamps.
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, 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.

0(Defrost):Turn the right knob on the control
panel to this mode to direct most of the air to the
windshield, and the side window outlets. When
you select this mode, the system runs the air
conditioning system unless the outside temperature
is near or below freezing. Recirculation is not
available in this mode.
Do not drive the vehicle until all the windows
are clear.
Rear Window Defogger
The rear window defogger uses a warming grid to
remove fog or frost from the rear window when
the key is in the ignition and turned to ON.
=(Rear Defogger):Press the right knob on the
control panel to turn the rear window defogger
on or off. First press of this button will activate
the rear window defogger for 15 minutes and
each subsequent activation lasts seven and
one-half minutes.
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
Use the air outlets located in the center and
on the side of your instrument panel to direct
the airow.
Your vehicle has air outlets that allow you to
adjust the direction and amount of airow inside
the vehicle. Move the louvers up or down to
change the direction of the airow. Use the
thumbwheel under the outlets to change the
direction of the airow from left to right.
Operation Tips

Enable recirculation mode for maximum
air conditioning performance.
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.
