2008 CHEVROLET EXPRESS PASSANGER seat adjustment

Mirrors
Manual Rearview Mirror
When you are sitting in a comfortable driving position,
adjust the mirror so you can see clearly behind your
vehicle. Grip the mirror in the center to move it up
or down and side to side. The day/night adjustment
allows you to adjust the mirror to avoid glare from the
lamps behind you. Push the tab forward for daytime use
and pull it for nighttime use.
If you have a cargo van without the rear door glass,
your vehicle may not have an inside rearview mirror.
Outside Manual Mirror
Adjust the mirrors by pressing the mirror up and down
and left and right so you can see a little of the side
of your vehicle, and have a clear view of objects behind
you. The mirrors can be folded in to enter narrow
passageways.
On the lower portion of each mirror is an auxiliary
convex mirror. A convex mirror’s surface is curved so
you can see more from the driver’s seat. The auxiliary
convex mirrors can be adjusted manually by pressing
the mirror.
Outside Camper-Type Mirrors
If your vehicle has these
camper-type mirrors, they
can be adjusted manually
so you can have a
clear view of the objects
behind you.
On the lower portion of each mirror there is an auxiliary
convex mirror that can be adjusted manually to
provide an extended field of view.
The mirrors can be manually folded in or out.

Outlet Adjustment
Use the outlets located near the center and on the sides
of the instrument panel to change the direction of
airflow.
Operation Tips
•Clear away any ice, snow or leaves from the air
inlets at the base of the windshield that may
block the flow of air into your vehicle.
•Use of non-GM approved hood deflectors 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.
Rear Heating System
Your vehicle may have a rear heating system that
allows you to adjust the amount of air flowing into the
rear of the vehicle, from the front-seating area. This
feature works with the main climate-control system in
your vehicle.AUX:The thumbwheel for this system is located in the
switchbank below the audio system.9(Fan):Turn the thumbwheel up or down to increase
or decrease the amount of heated air sent to the
rear-seating area.

A rear seat passenger can use this control panel to
personally adjust the temperature, the direction of the
airflow and the fan speed for the rear seating area.
The fan knob located on the front climate control panel
must be turned to AUX (Auxiliary) to let a rear seat
passenger use the control panel in the rear seating area.
Performing this action disables the front control panel.
To return control to this panel, move the fan knob out
of AUX.
9(Fan):Turn the left knob clockwise or
counterclockwise to increase or decrease the fan speed
in the rear-seating area.
9:This position turns the system off.
Mode Control:Turn the center knob clockwise or
counterclockwise to change the direction of the airflow
in the rear seating area.To change the current mode, select one of the following:
H(Vent):This mode directs air to the upper outlets,
with a little air directed to the floor outlets.
2(Floor):This mode directs most of the air to the
floor outlets.
Temperature Control:Turn the right knob clockwise or
counterclockwise to increase or decrease the
temperature in the rear-seating area.
The air-conditioning system on the main climate control
panel must be turned on to direct cooled air to the
rear of the vehicle. If it is not on, then the temperature
in the rear of the vehicle remains at cabin temperature.
Be sure to keep the area under the front seats clear
of any objects so that the air inside of your vehicle can
circulate effectively.
For information on how to use the main climate control
system, seeClimate Control System on page 3-19.
