132 Instruments and Controls 1x : For a single wipe, briefly turn
the
N band down. For several
wipes, hold the band down.
L : Press
L on the windshield
wiper control to spray windshield
washer fluid and activate the wipers.
The wipers will continue until
L is
released or the maximum wash time
is reached. When
L is released,
additional wipes may occur
depending on how long the
windshield washer had been
activated. See Washer Fluid 0 334
for information on filling the
windshield washer fluid reservoir.
{ Warning
In freezing weather, do not use
the washer until the windshield is
warmed. Otherwise the washer
fluid can form ice on the
windshield, blocking your vision.
Clear snow and ice from the wiper
blades before using them. If frozen
to the windshield, carefully loosen or thaw them. Damaged blades should
be replaced. See Wiper Blade
Replacement 0 344 .
Heavy snow or ice can overload the
wiper motor.
Wipe Parking
If the ignition is turned off while the
wipers are on LO, HI, or
3 , they
will immediately stop.
If the windshield wiper control is
then moved to OFF before the driver
door is opened or within 10 minutes,
the wipers will restart and move to
the base of the windshield.
If the ignition is turned off while the
wipers are performing wipes due to
windshield washing, the wipers
continue to run until they reach the
base of the windshield.
Compass The vehicle may have a compass
display on the Driver Information
Center (DIC). The compass receives
its heading and other information
from the Global Positioning System (GPS) antenna, Electronic
Stability Control (ESC), and vehicle
speed information.
The compass system is designed to
operate for a certain number of
miles or degrees of turn before
needing a signal from the GPS
satellites. When the compass
display shows CAL, drive the
vehicle for a short distance in an
open area where it can receive a
GPS signal. The compass system
will automatically determine when a
GPS signal is restored and provide
a heading again.
Clock The time and date for the clock can
be set using the infotainment
system. See “ Time/Date ” in
“ System “ under “ Settings ” in the
infotainment manual.
Power Outlets Accessory power outlets can be
used to plug in electrical equipment,
such as a cell phone, MP3
player, etc.

See
@ under “ Manual Operation ”
for more details.
Manual Operation
9 : Turn clockwise or
counterclockwise to increase or
decrease the fan speed. Press the
knob to turn the fan off. When off is
selected, a small amount of air may
still come out of the outlets
depending on vehicle speed. If any
buttons are pressed or knobs are
turned, the climate control system
will turn on and operate at the
current setting.
Press AUTO to return to automatic
operation.
Driver and Passenger
Temperature Control : The
temperature can be adjusted
separately for the driver and
passenger.
Turn the knob clockwise or
counterclockwise to increase or
decrease the driver or passenger
temperature setting. The driver side or passenger side temperature
display shows the temperature
setting increasing or decreasing.
SYNC : Press to link the passenger
temperature setting to the driver
setting. The SYNC indicator light will
turn on. When the passenger setting
is adjusted, the SYNC indicator light
will turn off.
Air Delivery Mode Control : Press
z ,
Y , or
[ to change the
direction of the airflow. Any
combination of the three controls
can be selected. An indicator light
comes on in the selected mode
button.
Changing the mode cancels the
automatic operation and the system
goes into manual mode. Press
AUTO to return to automatic
operation.
To change the current mode, select
one or more of the following:
z : Air is directed to the
windshield, outboard a/c outlets,
and side window outlets.
Y : Air is directed to the a/c outlets. [ : Air is directed to the floor
outlets, with some air directed to the
windshield, outboard a/c outlets,
and side window outlets.
0 MAX : Air is directed to the
windshield and the fan runs at a
higher speed if not already above a
medium fan speed. This mode
overrides the previous mode
selected and clears fog or frost from
the windshield more quickly. When
the control is pressed again, the
system returns to the previous mode
setting and fan speed.
For best results, clear all snow and
ice from the windshield before
defrosting.
@ : Press to turn on recirculation.
An indicator light comes on. Air is
recirculated to quickly cool the
inside of the vehicle. It can also be
used to help reduce outside air and
odors that enter the vehicle.

Vehicle Care 331CautionFailure to follow the specific
coolant fill procedure could cause
the engine to overheat and could
cause system damage. If coolant
is not visible in the surge tank,
contact your dealer.
If no coolant is visible in the surge
tank, add coolant.
1. Remove the coolant surge tank
pressure cap when the cooling
system, including the coolant
surge tank pressure cap and
upper radiator hose, is no
longer hot. Turn the pressure cap slowly
counterclockwise about one full
turn. If a hiss is heard, wait for
that to stop. A hiss means
there is still some pressure left.
2. Keep turning the pressure cap
slowly, and remove it.
3. Fill the coolant surge tank with
the proper mixture to the full
cold mark.
4. With the coolant surge tank
pressure cap off, start the
engine and let it run until the
engine coolant temperature
gauge indicates approximately
90 °C (195 °F).
By this time, the coolant level
inside the coolant surge tank
may be lower. If the level is
lower, add more of the proper
mixture to the coolant surge
tank until the level reaches the
indicated mark.
5. Replace the pressure cap
tightly. 6. Verify coolant level after the
engine is shut off and the
coolant is cold. If necessary,
repeat coolant fill procedure
Steps 1 – 6.
CautionIf the pressure cap is not tightly
installed, coolant loss and engine
damage may occur. Be sure the
cap is properly and tightly
secured.
Engine Overheating If the vehicle has the Duramax
diesel engine, see the Duramax
diesel supplement.
Caution
Do not run the engine if there is a
leak in the engine cooling system.
This can cause a loss of all
coolant and can damage the
system and vehicle. Have any
leaks fixed right away.
