Chevrolet Sonic Owner's Manual: Trunk (Sedan)

Warning

Exhaust gases can enter the vehicle if it is driven with the liftgate, hatch/trunk open, or with any objects that pass through the seal between the body and the hatch/trunk or liftgate.

• . Close all of the windows.
• . Fully open the air outlets on or under the instrument panel.
• . Adjust the climate control system to a setting that brings in only outside air and set the fan speed to the highest setting. See “Climate Control Systems” in the Index.
