Chevrolet Sonic Owner's Manual: Air Vents
Use the air vents located in the center and on the side of the instrument panel to direct the airflow. Move the slats on the center air vents to direct airflow.
Turn the knobs on the side air vents counterclockwise or clockwise to open or close off the airflow.
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 the vehicle.
- Use of non-GM approved hood deflectors may adversely affect the performance of the system.
