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, which may
improve long term system performance.
.
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.
