Rear Seat Audio (RSA)
System
Vehicles with this feature allow
the rear seat passengers to listen
to and control any of the music
sources: radio, CDs, DVDs, or other
auxiliary sources. However, the rear
seat passengers can only control
the music sources the front seat
passengers are not listening to
(except on some radios where dual
control is allowed). For example,
rear seat passengers can control
and listen to a CD through the
headphones, while the driver
listens to the radio through the
front speakers. The rear seat
passengers have control of the
volume for each set of headphones.The radio functionality is controlled
by both the RSA and the front radio.
Only one band can be tuned to at
one time. Changing the band on the
RSA or the front radio will change
the band on the other system,
if they are both sourced to the radio.
The RSA functions can be used
even while the main radio is off.
The front audio system will display
the headphone icon when the RSA
is on, and it will disappear from the
display when the RSA is off.
Audio can be heard through wired
headphones (not included) plugged
into the jacks on the RSA. If the
vehicle has this feature, audio can
also be heard on Channel 2 of the
wireless headphones.

Depending on the audio system,
the rear speakers may continue to
play when the RSA audio is active
through the headphones.
To listen to an iPod or portable
audio device through the RSA,

then choose the front auxiliary input
with the RSA SRCE button.

Bluetooth
Vehicles with a Bluetooth system
can use a Bluetooth‐capable cell
phone with a Hands‐Free Profile
to make and receive phone calls.
The system can be used while
the key is in the ON/RUN or
ACC/ACCESSORY position.
The range of the Bluetooth system
can be up to 9.1 m (30 ft). Not all
phones support all functions, and
not all phones are guaranteed to
work with the in-vehicle Bluetooth
system. See www.gm.com/bluetooth
for more information on compatible
phones.
Voice Recognition
The Bluetooth system uses voice
recognition to interpret voice
commands to dial phone numbers
and name tags.
For additional information, say
“Help” while you are in a voice
recognition menu. Noise:
Keep interior noise levels
to a minimum. The system may not
recognize voice commands if there
is too much background noise.
When to Speak: A short tone
sounds after the system responds
indicating when it is waiting for a
voice command. Wait until the tone
and then speak.
How to Speak: Speak clearly in a
calm and natural voice.
Audio System
When using the in‐vehicle Bluetooth
system, sound comes through
the vehicle's front audio system
speakers and overrides the audio
system. Use the audio system
volume knob, during a call, to
change the volume level. The
adjusted volume level remains in
memory for later calls. To prevent
missed calls, a minimum volume
level is used if the volume is turned
down too low.

8-6 Climate Controls
Driver and Passenger Side
Temperature Controls
The driver and passenger side
temperature buttons are used
to adjust the temperature of the
air coming through the system
on the driver or passenger side
of the vehicle. The temperature
can be adjusted even if the system
is turned off. This is possible since
outside air always flows through
the system as the vehicle is
moving forward unless it is
set to recirculation mode. See
“Recirculation”later in this section.
Press the + or −buttons to increase
or decrease the cabin temperature.
The driver side or passenger side
temperature display shows the
temperature setting increasing
or decreasing. The passenger temperature
setting can be set to match the
driver temperature setting by
pressing the PASS button and
turning off the PASS indicator.
When the passenger temperature
setting is set different than the driver
setting, the indicator on the PASS
button illuminates and both the
driver side and passenger side
temperature displays are shown.
When in defrost mode the
passenger temperature setting
cannot be changed.
Automatic Operation
AUTO (Automatic):
When
automatic operation is active,
the system controls the inside
temperature, the air delivery,
and the fan speed. Use the steps below to place the
entire system in automatic mode:
1. Press the AUTO button.
When AUTO is selected, the
display changes to show the
current temperature(s) and
AUTO is lit on the display.
The current air delivery mode
and fan speed are also
displayed for about five seconds.
When AUTO is selected, the air
conditioning operation and air
inlet are automatically controlled.
The air conditioning compressor
may run when the outside
temperature is above freezing.
The air inlet will normally be set
to outside air. If it is hot outside,
the air inlet may automatically
switch to the recirculate mode
to help quickly cool down the
air inside the vehicle. The light
on the button comes on in
recirculation.

2. Set the driver and passengertemperature.
To find your comfort setting, start
with a 23°C (74°F) temperature
setting and allow about
20 minutes for the system
to regulate. Use the driver or
passenger temperature buttons
to adjust the temperature setting
as necessary. If a temperature
setting of 15°C (60°F) is chosen,
the system remains at the
maximum cooling setting.
If a temperature setting of
32°C (90°F) is chosen, the
system remains at the maximum
heat setting. Choosing either
maximum setting will not cause
the vehicle to heat or cool any
faster.
Do not cover the solar sensor
located on the top of the instrument
panel near the windshield. This
sensor regulates air temperature based on sun load. For more
information on the solar sensor,
see
“Sensors” later in this section.
To avoid blowing cold air in cold
weather, the system delays turning
the fan on until warm air is
available. The length of delay
depends on the engine coolant
temperature. Pressing the fan
switch overrides this delay and
changes the fan to a selected
speed.
Manual Operation
D C(Fan Control): Press these
buttons to increase or decrease the
fan speed.
Pressing either fan button while in
automatic control places the fan
under manual control. The fan
setting remains displayed and
the AUTO light turns off. The air
delivery mode remains under
automatic control.
H G(Air Delivery Mode Control):
Press these buttons to change the
direction of the airflow in the vehicle.
Repeatedly press either button until
the desired mode appears on the
display.
Pressing either mode button while
the system is off changes the air
delivery mode without turning the
system on.
Pressing either mode button while in
automatic control places the mode
under manual control. The air
delivery mode setting displays and
the AUTO light turns off. The fan
remains under automatic control.
H(Vent): Air is directed to the
instrument panel outlets.
