Air Vents
Use the slider switch on the air outlets to change the direction of the airflow, or to open and close off the airflow. There are also outlets overhead in the rear passenger area; adjust as needed. Keep all outlets open whenever possible for best system performance.
Operation Tips
. Clear away any ice, snow, or leaves from the air inlets at the base of the windshield that can 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 can adversely affect the performance of the system.
. Keep the path under all seats clear of objects to help circulate the air inside the vehicle more effectively.
. If fogging reoccurs while in vent or bi-level modes with mild temperature throughout the vehicle, turn on the air conditioner to reduce windshield fogging.
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 0 325.
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 0 325.
