A/C :Press to turn the air
conditioning system on or off.
If the climate control system is
turned off or the outside
temperature falls below
freezing, the air conditioner
will not run.
Pressing this button cancels
automatic air conditioning and

@: Press to turn on
recirculation. An indicator light
comes on. Air is recirculated to
quickly cool the inside of the
vehicle or to reduce the entry
of outside air and odors.
Auto Defog : The climate
control system may have a
sensor to automatically detect high humidity inside the
vehicle. When high humidity is
detected, the climate control
system may adjust to outside
air supply and turn on the air
conditioner. The fan speed
may slightly increase to help
prevent fogging. If the climate
control system does not
detect possible window
fogging, it returns to normal
operation. To turn Auto Defog
off or on, select Settings >
Climate and Air Quality > Auto
Defog > Select ON or OFF.
Ionizer :
If equipped with an
ionizer, this feature helps to
clean the air inside the vehicle
and remove contaminants
such as pollen, odors, and
dust. If the climate control
system is on and the ionizer is
enabled, the ionizer status
indicator will be lit on the
climate control display. To turn
the Ionizer off or on, select

or on, select Settings >
Climate and Air Quality > Auto
Rear Defog > Select ON or
OFF. When auto rear defog is
selected, the rear window
defogger turns on
automatically when the
interior temperature is cold
and the outside temperature
is about 7 °C (44 °F) and below.
The auto rear defogger turns
off automatically.
If equipped, the heated
outside mirrors turn on when
the rear window defogger
button is on and help to clear

fog or frost from the surface
of the mirror. See Heated
Mirrors036.
Caution
Do not try to clear frost or
other material from the
inside of the front
windshield and rear window
with a razor blade or
anything else that is sharp.
This may damage the rear
window defogger grid and
affect the radio's ability to
pick up stations clearly. The
repairs would not be
covered by the vehicle
warranty.
Remote Start Climate
Control Operation :
If equipped with remote start,
the climate control system
may run when the vehicle is
started remotely. If equipped
with heated or ventilated
seats or a heated steering
wheel, these features may
come on during a remote start. See Remote Vehicle Start
018,
Heated and Ventilated Front
Seats 053, and Heated
Steering Wheel 0110.Sensor
The solar sensor, on top of the
instrument panel near the
windshield, monitors the solar
intensity.
The climate control system
uses the sensor information to
adjust the temperature, fan
speed, recirculation, and air
delivery mode for best
comfort. If the sensor is covered, the
automatic climate control
system may not work properly.
Afterblow Feature
If equipped, under certain
conditions, the fan may stay
on or may turn on and off
several times after you turn
off and lock the vehicle. This is
normal.
Air Vents

226 Climate Controls
Adjustable air vents are in the
center and on the sides of the
instrument panel, and on the
rear of the center console
storage.
Move the slider knobs to
change the direction of or to
close off the airflow.
Operation Tips
.Clear away any ice, snow,
or leaves from air inlets at
the base of the windshield
that could block the flow of
air into the vehicle.
.Clear snow off the hood to
improve visibility and help
decrease moisture drawn
into the vehicle.
.Keep the path under the
front seats clear of objects
to help circulate the air
inside of the vehicle more
effectively.
.Use of non-GM approved
hood deflectors can
adversely affect the
performance of the system.Check with your dealer
before adding equipment to
the outside of the vehicle.
.Do not attach any devices to
the air vent slats. This
restricts airflow and may
cause damage to the air
vents.
Maintenance
Passenger
Compartment Air
Filter
The filter reduces dust, pollen,
and other airborne irritants
from outside air that is pulled
into the vehicle. The filter
should be replaced as part of
routine scheduled
maintenance. See
Maintenance Schedule
0425.
See your dealer regarding
replacement of the filter.
Service
All vehicles have a label
underhood that identifies the
refrigerant used in the vehicle.
The refrigerant system should
only be serviced by trained
and certified technicians. The
air conditioning evaporator
should never be repaired or
replaced by one from a
salvage vehicle. It should only
be replaced by a new
evaporator to ensure proper
and safe operation.
During service, all refrigerants
should be reclaimed with
proper equipment. Venting
refrigerants directly to the
atmosphere is harmful to the
environment and may also
create unsafe conditions
based on inhalation,
combustion, frostbite, or other
health-based concerns.
The air conditioning system
requires periodic maintenance.
See Maintenance Schedule
0 425.

Driving and Operating 251
When thehindicator is
illuminated, the system is
enabled.
Winter Cover
If equipped, the winter cover
can be used to enhance
heater performance in
extremely cold conditions
below −0 °C (32 °F). The winter
cover installs over the grille
and restricts airflow to the
engine compartment.
Usage Guidelines
The winter cover should only
be used while operating the
vehicle in extremely cold
temperatures or in heavy
snow for extended periods. In
these temperatures, the
vehicle does not need a large
amount of air to properly cool
the engine. When more airflow
is required to cool the vehicle,
the winter cover should not be
used. The following usage
guidelines will allow adequate
airflow for proper radiator and
air cooler performance:
.Do not use the winter cover
if towing a trailer. The
vehicle may overheat if the
radiator is covered while
towing.
.Do not modify the cover. The
winter cover does not cover
some sections of the front
of the vehicle to provide
enough airflow.
.Keep the underside of the
winter cover as clean as
possible. Remove monthly or
as necessary and clean away
dust and debris.
.Do not use the winter cover
above −0 °C (32 °F).
Use only a mild soap to clean.
Do not use harsh soap, strong
detergents, or vinyl
protectant/sealant type
products as they may damage
the special finish. Allow the
winter cover to dry completely
before reinstalling.
Installation Instructions
When first trying to fit the
cover, it may appear to be
undersized but will stretch
during installation to ensure a
tight fit. The initial installation
of the cover is best performed
when the winter cover
is warm.
1. Center grille cover and make sure that it is
positioned correctly.
