Pontiac g8 Automobile User Manual


 
The air conditioning system removes
moisture from the air, so a small
amount of water might drip under the
vehicle while idling or after turning off
the engine. This is normal.
The air conditioning should be
turned on for at least five to
ten minutes once every two weeks
to lubricate the air conditioning
seals, even in the winter.
Recirculation
/ (Recirculation): Press to
change the air intake between
recirculated air and outside air.
An indicator light comes on when
the recirculation is on.
The recirculation mode recycles
interior air and is not recommended
for extended use. If it is used for
a long period of time, the system
automatically lets some fresh air into
the vehicle for ventilation.
The recirculation mode cannot be
turned on in defrost mode. If
/ is
pressed, the indicator light flashes
three times and recirculation
stays off.
Rear Window Defogger
The rear window defogger uses a
warming grid to remove fog from the
rear window. It only works when
the ignition is in ON/RUN.
+ (Rear Window Defogger):
Press to turn on or off. An indicator
comes on when the rear window
defogger is on. The rear window
defogger turns off automatically if it
is left on.
Notice: Do not use anything
sharp on the inside of the rear
window. If you do, you could cut
or damage the warming grid, and
the repairs would not be covered
by the vehicle warranty. Do not
attach a temporary vehicle
license, tape, a decal or anything
similar to the defogger grid.
Passenger Compartment
Air Filter
The vehicle has a passenger
compartment air filter that filters the
outside air entering the vehicle.
The filter removes contaminants,
such as pollen and dust. See
your dealer/retailer for more
information.
