or off. The rear window defogger

blade or sharp object to clear
the inside rear window. Do not
adhere anything to the defogger
grid lines in the rear glass. These

L / M (Driver and Passenger
Heated Seats): For vehicles with
heated seats, see Heated Front
Seats on page 3‑9.
Remote Start Climate Control
Operation: For vehicles with
the remote vehicle start feature,
the climate control system may
run when the vehicle is started
remotely. The system uses the
driver's previous settings to heat
or cool the inside of the vehicle.
The front heated seats will turn
on if it is cold outside. The heated
seat indicator lights do not come on
during a remote start. See Remote
Vehicle Start on page 2‑5.
Sensors
The solar sensor, located on top
of the instrument panel near the
windshield, monitors the solar heat.
The climate control system
uses the information to adjust
the temperature, fan speed,
recirculation, and air delivery mode.
Do not cover the solar sensor or the
system will not work properly.
Air Vents
Use the air outlets, located in
the center and on the side of the
instrument panel, to direct the
airflow. Use the thumbwheels
located near the center air outlets,
to open or 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.
.
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.
