Cadillac 2007 Escalade EXT Automobile User Manual


 
0 (Defrost): This mode directs a portion of the
air to the windshield, side window vents and
some to the floor vents. In this mode, the system
will automatically force outside air into your
vehicle. The recirculation mode cannot be selected
while in the defrost mode. The air conditioning
compressor will run automatically in this setting,
unless the outside temperature is close to freezing.
Do not drive the vehicle until all the windows
are clear.
Rear Window Defogger
The rear window defogger uses a warming grid to
remove fog from the rear window.
< (Rear Window Defogger): The rear window
defogger will turn off automatically after it has
been activated. The defogger can also be turned
off by pressing the button again or by turning
off the engine. Do not drive the vehicle until all
the windows are clear.
If your vehicle has heated outside rearview
mirrors, the mirrors will heat to help clear fog or
frost from the surface of the mirror when the
rear window defog button is pressed. See Outside
Power Foldaway Mirrors on page 149.
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
Your vehicle has air outlets located in the center
and on the side of the instrument panel that
allow you to adjust the direction and amount of
airflow inside the vehicle. There are also air outlets
on the rear of the center console for rear seat
passenger use. Move the louvers up or down. Use
the rotary knob next to or underneath the outlet
to close the louvers. For the most efficient airflow
and temperature control, keep the outlet in the
fully opened position.
Operation Tips
Keep the hood and front air inlets free of ice,
snow, or any other obstruction, such as
leaves. The heater and defroster will work far
better, reducing the chance of fogging the
inside of your windows.
