2008 SATURN VUE HYBRID lock

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 ON/RUN.
<(Rear Window Defogger):Press this button to
turn the rear window defogger on or off. An indicator
light on the button comes on to show that the rear
window defogger is activated.
The rear window defogger stays on for about 10 minutes
if the vehicle remains at slower vehicle speeds or until
the button is pressed, or unless the ignition is turned
to ACC/ACCESSORY or LOCK/OFF. If turned on again,
the defogger only runs for about ve minutes before
turning off again. At higher vehicle speeds, the defogger
may stay on continuously. The defogger can always
be turned off by pressing the button again or by turning
off the ignition.
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 the vehicle warranty. Do not
attach a temporary vehicle license, tape, a decal
or anything similar to the defogger grid.
Air Conditioning and Engine Start/Stop
On hot days, use the automatic fan and automatic air
delivery mode settings and the vehicle will reach the
desired temperature more quickly. The desired fan and
air delivery mode settings can still be adjusted manually.
Open the windows to let the hot inside air escape, then
close them. This helps reduce the time it takes for the
vehicle to cool down and helps the system to operate
more efficiently.
When either the Normal A/C or Hybrid A/C modes are
active, the air conditioning system removes moisture
from the air, so a small amount of water may drip under
the vehicle while idling or after turning off the engine.
This is normal.
The use of Normal A/C causes the engine to keep
running while the vehicle is at a complete stop to allow
the climate control system to continue cooling.
The use of Hybrid A/C allows automatic engine start/
stop operations while the vehicle is at a complete stop.
The air conditioning compressor can not run when
the engine is not running, resulting in reduced cooling
performance. The climate control system may keep the
engine running or restart the engine during a stop to
continue cooling. Selecting the Normal A/C button forces
the engine and air conditioning compressor to restart
automatically. For more information about Engine
Start/Stop operation, seeStarting the Engine
(Automatic Engine Start/Stop) on page 2-18.
