Rear Window Defogger The rear window defogger uses a warming grid to clear fog from the rear window. The rear window defogger button is located on the center of the instrument panel, above the audio system. The defogger does not operate with the rear liftglass opened. Notice: Do not use a razor blade or sharp object to clear the inside rear window. Do not adhere anything to the defogger grid lines in the rear glass. These actions may damage the rear defogger. Repairs would not be covered by your warranty. Outlet Adjustment Use the air outlets located in the center and outboard sides of the instrument panel, to change the direction of the air flowing through the vents. Operation Tips • Clear away any ice, snow or leaves from the air inlets at the base of the windshield that may block the flow of air into your vehicle. The rear window defogger will only work when the ignition is in the ON position. • Use of non-GM approved hood deflectors may adversely affect the performance of the system. = (Rear Defogger): Press the defogger button to turn the rear window defogger on or off. An indicator light in the button comes on to let you know that the rear window defogger is activated. Be sure to clear as much snow from the rear window as possible. The rear window defogger will turn off automatically approximately 15 minutes after the button is pressed. The defogger can also be turned off by pressing the button again or by turning off the engine. 3-22 • Keep the path under the front seats clear of objects to help circulate the air inside of your vehicle more effectively. • If the airflow seems low when the fan is at the highest setting, the passenger compartment air filter may need to be replaced. For more information, see "Passenger Compartment Air Filter" following and Scheduled Maintenance on page 6-4.
