154 Climate Controls
The heated outside mirrors turn on
with the rear window defogger and
help to clear fog or frost from the
surface of the mirror. SeeHeated
Mirrors 045.
If equipped with a convertible top,
the rear window defogger and
heated mirrors are automatically
disabled when the convertible top is
moving or down.
Caution
Using a razor blade or sharp
object on the inside rear window
can damage the antenna or
defogger. Repairs would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.
Do not stick anything to the rear
window.
(/{: If equipped, press to heat
or ventilate the seat. See Heated
and Ventilated Front Seats 065. Remote Start Climate Control
Operation (If Equipped) :
If remote
start is used to start the vehicle, the
climate control system will come on,
depending on the outside
temperature. The rear window
defogger or heated outside mirrors
may come on based on cold
ambient conditions. The rear defog
indicator light may not come on
during a remote start. The heated or
ventilated seats may turn on if it is
cold or hot outside.
See Remote Vehicle Start 033 and
Heated and Ventilated Front Seats
0 65, if equipped.
Sensors
The interior cabin air temperature
and solar sensor on top of the
instrument panel near the
windshield monitors the solar heat
and measures the initial interior
cabin temperature.
The climate control system uses the
sensor information to adjust the
temperature, fan speed,
recirculation, and air delivery mode
for best comfort. The humidity and windshield
temperature sensor is on the
windshield glass inside surface near
the rearview mirror. The automatic
climate control system uses this
sensor to receive information to
determine the need for defogging.
If any of these sensors are blocked
or covered, the automatic climate
control system may not work
properly.
There is also a sensor behind the
front bumper. This sensor reads the
outside air temperature and helps to
maintain the temperature inside the
vehicle. Any cover on the front of
the vehicle could give a false
reading in the temperature.

Air Vents
Use the tab on the air outlets to
change the direction of the 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 the
vehicle.
. Clear snow off the hood to
improve visibility and help
decrease moisture drawn into
the vehicle.
. Use of non-GM approved hood
deflectors may adversely affect
the performance of the system.
. Keep the area around the base
of the instrument panel console
and air path under the seats
clear of objects to help circulate
the air inside of the vehicle more
effectively.
Maintenance
Passenger Compartment
Air Filter
The passenger compartment air
filter reduces dust, pollen, and other
airborne irritants from outside air
that is pulled into the vehicle.
Reductions in airflow, which may
occur more often in dusty areas,
indicate that the filter may need to
be replaced. See Maintenance
Schedule 0312.
Caution
Driving without a passenger
compartment air filter in place can
cause water and small particles,
like paper and leaves, to be
pulled into your climate control
system which may cause damage
to it. Make sure you always
replace the old filter with a
new one. The passenger compartment air
filter is on the passenger side of the
engine compartment near the
coolant surge tank. See
Engine
Compartment Overview 0225.
To check or replace the air filter:
1. Release the retainer clips from the passenger compartment air
filter cover. The PVC hoses
may need to be held out of the
way briefly to access the air
filter cover.
2. Remove the cover.

number indicates the tire section
width in millimeters from
sidewall to sidewall.
(3) Aspect Ratio
:A two-digit
number that indicates the tire
height-to-width measurements.
For example, if the tire size
aspect ratio is 60, as shown in
item 3 of the illustration, it would
mean that the tire's sidewall is
60 percent as high as it is wide.
(4) Construction Code
:A letter
code is used to indicate the type
of ply construction in the tire.
The letter R means radial ply
construction; the letter D means
diagonal or bias ply
construction; and the letter B
means belted-bias ply
construction.
(5) Rim Diameter
:Diameter of
the wheel in inches.
(6) Service Description
:These
characters represent the load
index and speed rating of the tire. The load index represents
the load carrying capacity a tire
is certified to carry. The speed
rating is the maximum speed a
tire is certified to carry a load.
Tire Terminology and
Definitions
Air Pressure:The amount of
air inside the tire pressing
outward on each square inch of
the tire. Air pressure is
expressed in kPa (kilopascal)
or psi (pounds per square inch).
Accessory Weight
:The
combined weight of optional
accessories. Some examples of
optional accessories are
automatic transmission, power
windows, power seats, and air
conditioning.
Aspect Ratio
:The relationship
of a tire's height to its width. Belt
:A rubber coated layer of
cords between the plies and the
tread. Cords may be made from
steel or other reinforcing
materials.
Bead
:The tire bead contains
steel wires wrapped by steel
cords that hold the tire onto
the rim.
Bias Ply Tire
:A pneumatic tire
in which the plies are laid at
alternate angles less than
90 degrees to the centerline of
the tread.
Cold Tire Pressure
:The
amount of air pressure in a tire,
measured in kPa (kilopascal)
or psi (pounds per square inch)
before a tire has built up heat
from driving. See Tire Pressure
0 274.
Curb Weight
:The weight of a
motor vehicle with standard and
optional equipment including the
