Front Seats Manual Seats { W ARNING: Y ou can lose control of the vehicle if you try to adjust a manual driver's seat while the vehicle is moving. The sudden movement could startle and confuse you, or make you push a pedal when you do not want to.
Seat Height Adjuster The driver's seat height adjuster is located on the outboard side of the seat. T o raise the seat, move the lever upward repeatedly until the seat is at the desired height. T o lower the seat, move the lever downward repeatedly until the seat is at the desired height.
Heated Seats Y our vehicle may have heated front seats. The switches are located on the instrument panel above the climate control system. Driver's Switch Shown, Passenger's Switch Similar Press the side of the switch with the double indicator lights to turn on the heated seat at the highest setting.
T o recline the seatback, do the following: 1. Lift the recline lever . 2. Move the seatback to the desired position, then release the lever to lock the seatback in place. 3. Push and pull on the seatback to make sure it is locked. T o return the seatback to an upright position, do the following: 1.
{ W ARNING: Sitting in a reclined position when the vehicle is in motion can be dangerous. Even when buckled up, the safety belts cannot do their job when reclined like this. The shoulder belt cannot do its job because it will not be against your body .
Head Restraints Adjust the head restraint so that the top of the restraint is at the same height as the top of the occupant's head. This position reduces the chance of a neck injury in a crash.
Easy Entry Seat (Coupe) { W ARNING: If the easy entry right front seat is not locked, it can move. In a sudden stop or crash, the person sitting there could be injured. After you have used it, be sure to push rearward on an easy entry seat to be sure it is locked.
3. Move the seat rearward until it locks into place after someone gets into the rear seat area. 4. Move the seatback to its original position and make sure the seatback is locked. Rear Seats Split Folding Rear Seat Y ou can fold either side of the rear seatback down for more cargo space.
T o raise the rear seatback, lift it up and push rearward until you hear a click. Push and pull on the seatback to be sure it is locked into place. { W ARNING: If the seatback is not locked, it could move forward in a sudden stop or crash. That could cause injury to the person sitting there.
{ W ARNING: It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision, people riding in these areas are more likely to be seriously injured or killed. Do not allow people to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not equipped with seats and safety belts.
Why Safety Belts Work When you ride in or on anything, you go as fast as it goes. T ake the simplest vehicle. Suppose it is just a seat on wheels. Put someone on it.
Get it up to speed. Then stop the vehicle. The rider does not stop. The person keeps going until stopped by something. In a real vehicle, it could be the windshield.
or the instrument panel... or the safety belts! With safety belts, you slow down as the vehicle does. Y ou get more time to stop. Y ou stop over more distance, and your strongest bones take the forces.
Questions and Answers About Safety Belts Q: Will I be trapped in the vehicle after a crash if I am wearing a safety belt? A: Y ou could be — whether you are wearing a safety belt or not. But your chance of being conscious during and after an accident, so you can unbuckle and get out, is much greater if you are belted.
Occupants who are not buckled up can be thrown out of the vehicle in a crash. And they can strike others in the vehicle who are wearing safety belts. First, before you or your passenger(s) wear a safety belt, there is important information you should know .
Q: What is wrong with this? A: The shoulder belt is too loose. It will not give as much protection this way . { W ARNING: Y ou can be seriously hurt if your shoulder belt is too loose. In a crash, you would move forward too much, which could increase injury .
Q: What is wrong with this? A: The lap belt is too loose. It will not give nearly as much protection this way . { W ARNING: Y ou can be seriously hurt if your lap belt is too loose. In a crash, you could slide under the lap belt and apply force on your abdomen.
Q: What is wrong with this? A: The belt is buckled in the wrong buckle. { W ARNING: Y ou can be seriously injured if your belt is buckled in the wrong place like this. In a crash, the belt would go up over your abdomen. The belt forces would be there, not on the pelvic bones.
Q: What is wrong with this? A: The belt is over an armrest. { W ARNING: Y ou can be seriously injured if your belt goes over an armrest like this. The belt would be much too high. In a crash, you can slide under the belt. The belt force would then be applied on the abdomen, not on the pelvic bones, and that could cause serious or fatal injuries.
Q: What is wrong with this? A: The shoulder belt is worn under the arm. It should be worn over the shoulder at all times. { W ARNING: Y ou can be seriously injured if you wear the shoulder belt under your arm. In a crash, your body would move too far forward, which would increase the chance of head and neck injury .
Q: What is wrong with this? A: The belt is behind the body . { W ARNING: Y ou can be seriously injured by not wearing the lap-shoulder belt properly . In a crash, you would not be restrained by the shoulder belt. Y our body could move too far forward increasing the chance of head and neck injury .
Q: What is wrong with this? A: The belt is twisted across the body . { W ARNING: Y ou can be seriously injured by a twisted belt. In a crash, you would not have the full width of the belt to spread impact forces. If a belt is twisted, make it straight so it can work properly , or ask your dealer/retailer to fix it.
Lap-Shoulder Belt All seating positions in the vehicle have a lap-shoulder belt. The following instructions explain how to wear a lap ‐ shoulder belt properly . 1. If the seat has a safety belt guide, and the safety belt is not routed through the guide, slide the edge of the belt webbing through the opening on the guide.
4. Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks. Pull up on the latch plate to make sure it is secure. If the belt is not long enough, see Safety Belt Extender on page 2 ‑ 30 . Position the release button on the buckle so that the safety belt could be quickly if necessary .
T o unlatch the belt, push the button on the buckle. The belt should return to its stowed position. Before a door is closed, be sure the safety belt is out of the way . If a door is slammed against a safety belt, damage can occur to both the belt and the vehicle.
Safety Belt Pretensioners This vehicle has safety belt pretensioners for front outboard occupants. Although the safety belt pretensioners cannot be seen, they are part of the safety belt assembly .
2. Place the guide over the belt and insert the two edges of the belt into the slots of the guide. 3. Be sure that the belt is not twisted and it lies flat.
{ W ARNING: A safety belt that is not properly worn may not provide the protection needed in a crash. The person wearing the belt could be seriously injured. The shoulder belt should go over the shoulder and across the chest. These parts of the body are best able to take belt restraining forces.
Safety Belt Use During Pregnancy Safety belts work for everyone, including pregnant women. Like all occupants, they are more likely to be seriously injured if they do not wear safety belts. A pregnant woman should wear a lap-shoulder belt, and the lap portion should be worn as low as possible, below the rounding, throughout the pregnancy .
Child Restraints Older Children Older children who have outgrown booster seats should wear the vehicle's safety belts. The manufacturer's instructions that come with the booster seat state the weight and height limitations for that booster .
Q: What is the proper way to wear safety belts? A: An older child should wear a lap-shoulder belt and get the additional restraint a shoulder belt can provide. The shoulder belt should not cross the face or neck. The lap belt should fit snugly below the hips, just touching the top of the thighs.
{ W ARNING: Never do this. Never allow a child to wear the safety belt with the shoulder belt behind their back. A child can be seriously injured by not wearing the lap-shoulder belt properly . In a crash, the child would not be restrained by the shoulder belt.
Infants and Y oung Children Everyone in a vehicle needs protection! This includes infants and all other children. Neither the distance traveled nor the age and size of the traveler changes the need, for everyone, to use safety restraints.
{ W ARNING: Never do this. Children who are up against, or very close to, any airbag when it inflates can be seriously injured or killed. Never put a rear-facing child restraint in the right front seat. Secure a rear-facing child restraint (Continued) W ARNING: (Continued) in a rear seat.
Q: What are the different types of add-on child restraints? A: Add-on child restraints, which are purchased by the vehicle's owner , are available in four basic types.
{ W ARNING: A young child's hip bones are still so small that the vehicle's regular safety belt may not remain low on the hip bones, as it should. Instead, it may settle up around the child's abdomen. In a crash, the belt would apply force on a body area that is unprotected by any bony structure.
A booster seat (C-D) is a child restraint designed to improve the fit of the vehicle's safety belt system. A booster seat can also help a child to see out the window .
When securing an add-on child restraint, refer to the instructions that come with the restraint which may be on the restraint itself or in a booklet, or both, and to this manual. The child restraint instructions are important, so if they are not available, obtain a replacement copy from the manufacturer .
A label on the sun visor says, “ Never put a rear-facing child restraint in the front. ” This is because the risk to the rear-facing child is so great, if the airbag deploys. { W ARNING: A child in a rear-facing child restraint can be seriously injured or killed if the right front passenger airbag inflates.
Lower Anchors and T ethers for Children (LA TCH) The LA TCH system holds a child restraint during driving or in a crash. This system is designed to make installation of a child restraint easier. The LA TCH system uses anchors in the vehicle and attachments on the child restraint that are made for use with the LA TCH system.
T op T ether Anchor A top tether (A, C) anchors the top of the child restraint to the vehicle. A top tether anchor is built into the vehicle. The top tether attachment (B) on the child restraint connects to the top tether anchor in the vehicle in order to reduce the forward movement and rotation of the child restraint during driving or in a crash.
T o assist you in locating the top tether anchors, the top tether anchor symbol is located on the cover. The top tether anchors are located under the covers on the rear seatback filler panel.
Securing a Child Restraint Designed for the LA TCH System { W ARNING: If a LA TCH-type child restraint is not attached to anchors, the child restraint will not be able to protect the child correctly . In a crash, the child could be seriously injured or killed.
Notice: Do not let the LA TCH attachments rub against the vehicle ’ s safety belts. This may damage these parts. If necessary , move buckled safety belts to avoid rubbing the LA TCH attachments. Do not fold the empty rear seat with a safety belt buckled.
If the position you are using does not have a headrest or head restraint and you are using a dual tether , route the tether over the seatback. If the position you are using has an adjustable headrest .
Securing a Child Restraint in a Rear Seat Position When securing a child restraint in a rear seating position, study the instructions that came with your child restraint to make sure it is compatible with this vehicle.
3. Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks. Make sure the release button is positioned so you would be able to unbuckle the safety belt quickly if necessary . 4. Pull the rest of the shoulder belt all the way out of the retractor to set the lock.
5. T o tighten the belt, push down on the child restraint, pull the shoulder portion of the belt to tighten the lap portion of the belt, and feed the shoulder belt back into the retractor. If you are using a forward-facing child restraint, you may find it helpful to use your knee to push down on the child restraint as you tighten the belt.
Securing a Child Restraint in the Right Front Seat Position The vehicle has airbags. A rear seat is a safer place to secure a forward-facing child restraint. See Where to Put the Restraint . In addition, the vehicle may have a passenger sensing system which is designed to turn off the right front passenger frontal airbag under certain conditions.
If the child restraint has the LA TCH system, see Lower Anchors and T ethers for Children (LA TCH) for how and where to install the child restraint using LA TCH. If a child restraint is secured using a safety belt and it uses a top tether, see Lower Anchors and T ethers for Children (LA TCH) for top tether anchor locations.
6. Pull the rest of the shoulder belt all the way out of the retractor to set the lock. 7. T o tighten the belt, push down on the child restraint, pull the shoulder portion of the belt to tighten the lap portion of the belt and feed the shoulder belt back into the retractor.
If the vehicle is equipped with a passenger sensing system, and the passenger sensing system has turned off the right front passenger frontal airbag, the off indicator on the passenger airbag status indicator should light and stay lit when the vehicle is started.
Airbags are designed to supplement the protection provided by safety belts. Even though today's airbags are also designed to help reduce the risk of injury from the force of an inflating bag, all airbags must inflate very quickly to do their job.
{ W ARNING: Children who are up against, or very close to, any airbag when it inflates can be seriously injured or killed. Airbags plus lap-shoulder belts offer protection for adults and older children, but not for young children and infants. Neither the vehicle's safety belt system nor its airbag system is designed for them.
Where Are the Airbags? The driver's frontal airbag is in the middle of the steering wheel. The right front passenger's airbag is in the instrument panel on the passenger's side.
Driver Side shown, Passenger Side similar If your vehicle has roof-rail airbags for the driver , right front passenger , and second row outboard passengers, they are in the ceiling above the side windows.
When Should an Airbag Inflate? Frontal airbags are designed to inflate in moderate to severe frontal or near-frontal crashes to help reduce the potential for severe injuries mainly to the driver's or right front passenger's head and chest.
Roof-rail airbags are not intended to inflate in frontal impacts, near-frontal impacts, rollovers, or rear impacts. A roof-rail airbag is intended to deploy on the side of the vehicle that is struck.
What Will Y ou See After an Airbag Inflates? After the frontal airbags inflate, they quickly deflate, so quickly that some people may not even realize an airbag inflated. Roof-rail airbags may still be at least partially inflated for some time after they deploy .
{ W ARNING: A crash severe enough to inflate the airbags may have also damaged important functions in the vehicle, such as the fuel system, brake and steering systems, etc. Even if the vehicle appears to be drivable after a moderate crash, there may be concealed damage that could make it difficult to safely operate the vehicle.
Passenger Sensing System (Without T urbo Engine) If the vehicle has one of the passenger airbag status indicators pictured in the following illustrations, then the vehicle has a passenger sensing system for the right front passenger position.
{ W ARNING: A child in a rear-facing child restraint can be seriously injured or killed if the right front passenger airbag inflates. This is because the back of the rear-facing child restraint would be very close to the inflating airbag.
For some children, including children in child restraints, and for very small adults, the passenger sensing system may or may not turn off the right front passenger frontal airbag, depending upon the person's seating posture and body build.
If the Off Indicator is Lit for an Adult-Size Occupant If a person of adult-size is sitting in the right front passenger seat, but the off indicator is lit, it could be because that person is not sitting properly in the seat.
Additional Factors Affecting System Operation Safety belts help keep the passenger in position on the seat during vehicle maneuvers and braking, which helps the passenger sensing system maintain the passenger airbag status.
The on indicator may be lit if an object, such as a briefcase, handbag, grocery bag, laptop or other electronic device, is put on an unoccupied seat. If this is not desired, remove the object from the seat.
The passenger sensing system works with sensors that are part of the right front passenger seat. The sensors are designed to detect the presence of a properly-seated occupant and determine if the right front passenger frontal airbag should be enabled (may inflate) or not.
The passenger sensing system is designed to turn off the right front passenger frontal airbag if: . The right front passenger seat is unoccupied. . The system determines that an infant is present in a rear-facing infant seat. . The system determines that a small child is present in a child restraint.
If the On Indicator is Lit for a Child Restraint If a child restraint has been installed and the on indicator is lit: 1. T urn the vehicle off. 2. Remove the child restraint from the vehicle. 3. Remove any additional items from the seat such as blankets, cushions, seat covers, seat heaters, or seat massagers.
If the Off Indicator is Lit for an Adult-Size Occupant If a person of adult-size is sitting in the right front passenger seat, but the off indicator is lit, it could be because that person is not sitting properly in the seat.
Additional Factors Affecting System Operation Safety belts help keep the passenger in position on the seat during vehicle maneuvers and braking, which helps the passenger sensing system maintain the passenger airbag status.
Adding Equipment to Y our Airbag-Equipped V ehicle Q: Is there anything I might add to or change about the vehicle that could keep the airbags from working properly? A: Y es. If you add things that change the vehicle's frame, bumper system, height, front end or side sheet metal, they may keep the airbag system from working properly .
Restraint System Check Checking the Restraint Systems Safety Belts Now and then, check that the safety belt reminder light, safety belts, buckles, latch plates, retractors, and anchorages are all working properly . Look for any other loose or damaged safety belt system parts that might keep a safety belt system from doing its job.
Replacing Restraint System Parts After a Crash { W ARNING: A crash can damage the restraint systems in your vehicle. A damaged restraint system may not properly protect the person using it, resulting in serious injury or even death in a crash.

Engine Coolant Heater The engine coolant heater can provide easier starting and better fuel economy during engine warm ‐ up in cold weather condition at or below 0°F ( − 18°C). V ehicles with am engine coolant heater should be plugged in at least four hours before starting.
Automatic T ransmission Operation If the vehicle has an automatic transmission, the shift lever is located on the console between the seats. There are several different positions for the automatic transmission. P (Park): This position locks the front wheels.
cannot shift out of P (Park), ease pressure on the shift lever and push the shift lever all the way into P (Park) as you maintain brake application. Then press the shift lever button and then move the shift lever into another gear . See Shifting Out of Park (Automatic T ransmission) on page 3 ‑ 33 .
I (Intermediate): This position is also used for normal driving. However, it reduces vehicle speed without using the brakes for slight downgrades where the vehicle would otherwise accelerate due to steepness of grade.
Here is how to operate the manual transmission: Notice: Do not rest your hand on the shift lever while driving. The pressure could cause premature wear in the transmission. The repairs would not be covered by the vehicle warranty . 1 (First): Press the clutch pedal and shift into 1 (First).
Shift Speeds { W ARNING: If you skip a gear when you downshift, you could lose control of the vehicle. Y ou could injure yourself or others. Do not shift down more than one gear at a time when you downshift. Up-Shift Light If the vehicle has a manual transmission, there may be an up-shift light.
Parking Brake Automatic Shown, Manual Similar The parking brake lever is located between the front seats. For vehicles equipped with an armrest, lift the console armrest in order to access the parking brake lever. T o set the parking brake, hold the brake pedal down and pull up on the parking brake lever .
Shifting Into Park (Automatic T ransmission) { W ARNING: It can be dangerous to get out of the vehicle if the shift lever is not fully in P (Park) with the parking brake firmly set. The vehicle can roll. If you have left the engine running, the vehicle can move suddenly .
T orque Lock (Automatic T ransmission) If you are parking on a hill and you do not shift into P (Park) properly , the weight of the vehicle may put too much force on the parking pawl in the transmission. Y ou may find it difficult to pull the shift lever out of P (Park).
If you still are unable to shift out of P (Park): 1. Fully release the shift lever button. 2. While holding down the brake pedal, press the shift lever button again. 3. Move the shift lever to the desired position. If you still cannot move the shift lever from P (Park), consult your dealer/retailer or a professional towing service.
Engine Exhaust { W ARNING: Engine exhaust contains Carbon Monoxide (CO) which cannot be seen or smelled. Exposure to CO can cause unconsciousness and even death. Exhaust may enter the vehicle if: . The vehicle idles in areas with poor ventilation (parking garages, tunnels, deep snow that may block underbody airflow or tail pipes).
Running the V ehicle While Parked It is better not to park with the engine running. But if you ever have to, here are some things to know . { W ARNING: Idling a vehicle in an enclosed area with poor ventilation is dangerous. Engine exhaust may enter the vehicle.

If the light stays on, or comes on while driving, there may be a problem with the electrical charging system.
When the ignition is on, the brake system warning light also comes on when the parking brake is set. The light stays on if the parking brake does not fully release. If it stays on after the parking brake is fully released, it means the vehicle has a brake problem.
Enhanced T raction System (ETS) Indicator/W arning Light For vehicles with the Enhanced Traction System (ETS), this light serves as an indicator and warning light. This light comes on briefly while the engine is started. If it does not, have the vehicle serviced by your dealer/retailer .
If this light is on and not flashing, the TCS and potentially the ESC system have been disabled. Check the DIC messaging to determine which feature(s) is no longer functioning and whether it is because of the driver turning off the feature(s), or because the system is not working properly and the vehicle requires service.
Tire Pressure Light For vehicles with a tire pressure monitoring system, this light comes on briefly when the engine is started. It provides information about tire pressures and the T ire Pressure Monitoring System. When the Light is On Steady This indicates that one or more of the tires is significantly underinflated.
If the check engine light comes on and stays on, while the engine is running, this indicates that there is an OBD II problem and service is required. Malfunctions often are indicated by the system before any problem is apparent. Being aware of the light can prevent more serious damage to the vehicle.
If the light continues to flash, when it is safe to do so, stop the vehicle. Find a safe place to park the vehicle. T urn the key off, wait at least 10 seconds, and restart the engine. If the light is still flashing, follow the previous steps and see your dealer/retailer for service as soon as possible.

Y our Driving, the Road, and the V ehicle Defensive Driving Defensive driving means “ always expect the unexpected. ” The first step in driving defensively is to wear your safety belt — See Safety Belts: They Are for Everyone on page 2 ‑ 10 .
For persons under 21, it is against the law in every U.S. state to drink alcohol. There are good medical, psychological, and developmental reasons for these laws. The obvious way to eliminate the leading highway safety problem is for people never to drink alcohol and then drive.
Avoid needless heavy braking. Some people drive in spurts, heavy acceleration followed by heavy braking, rather than keeping pace with traffic. This is a mistake. The brakes might not have time to cool between hard stops. The brakes will wear out much faster with a lot of heavy braking.
Let us say the road is wet and you are driving safely . Suddenly , an animal jumps out in front of you. Y ou slam on the brakes and continue braking. Here is what happens with ABS: A computer senses that the wheels are slowing down. If one of the wheels is about to stop rolling, the computer will separately work the brakes at each wheel.
Brake Assist If this vehicle has ESC with ABS, it also has a Brake Assist feature designed to assist the driver in stopping or decreasing vehicle speed in emergency driving conditions.
This light flashes on the instrument panel cluster when the ESC system is on and activated. ESC activates when the computer senses a discrepancy between the intended path and the direction the vehicle is actually traveling.
When the ESC system is turned off, the TRACTION OFF and ESC OFF messages appear , and the ESC/TCS light comes on to warn the driver that both traction control and ESC are disabled.
Launch Control (SS Models Only) Launch Control is a form of traction control, to control tire spin while launching the vehicle during closed track events and competitive driving. The feature is activated when the vehicle is at rest while in Competitive Mode.
If the vehicle is in cruise control while TCS begins to limit wheel spin, the cruise control will automatically disengage. The cruise control can be re-engaged when road conditions allow .
The traction control system is enabled automatically when the vehicle is started, and it will activate and flash the ESC/TCS light and display the LOW TRACTION message if it senses that either of the front wheels are spinning or beginning to lose traction while driving.
Enhanced T raction System (ETS) The vehicle may have an Enhanced Traction System (ETS) that limits wheel spin. This is especially useful in slippery road conditions. The system operates only if it senses that one or both of the front wheels are spinning or beginning to lose traction.
If the ETS indicator/warning light comes on and stays on for an extended period of time when the transmission shift lever is in any position other than L (Low), the vehicle may need service. When this light is on solid, the system will not limit wheel spin.
Limited-Slip Differential V ehicles with a limited-slip differential can give more traction on snow , mud, ice, sand or gravel. It works like a standard axle most of the time, but when traction is low , this feature allows the drive wheel with the most traction to move the vehicle.
Steering in Emergencies There are times when steering can be more effective than braking. For example, you come over a hill and find a truck stopped in your lane, or a car suddenly pulls out from nowhere, or a child darts out from between parked cars and stops right in front of you.
Off-Road Recovery The vehicle's right wheels can drop off the edge of a road onto the shoulder while driving. If the level of the shoulder is only slightly below the pavement, recovery should be fairly easy . Ease off the accelerator and then, if there is nothing in the way , steer so that the vehicle straddles the edge of the pavement.
Skidding In a skid, a driver can lose control of the vehicle. Defensive drivers avoid most skids by taking reasonable care suited to existing conditions, and by not overdriving those conditions. But skids are always possible. The three types of skids correspond to the vehicle's three control systems.
Racing or Other Competitive Driving See your warranty book before using your vehicle for racing or other competitive driving. After reviewing your warranty book, please see the GM Performance Parts we.
{ W ARNING: Wet brakes can cause crashes. They might not work as well in a quick stop and could cause pulling to one side. Y ou could lose control of the vehicle. After driving through a large puddle of water or a car/vehicle wash, lightly apply the brake pedal until the brakes work normally .
Before Leaving on a Long T rip T o prepare your vehicle for a long trip, consider having it serviced by your dealer/retailer before departing. Things to check on your own include: . Windshield Washer Fluid: Reservoir full? Windows clean — inside and outside? .
{ W ARNING: If you do not shift down, the brakes could get so hot that they would not work well. Y ou would then have poor braking or even none going down a hill. Y ou could crash. Shift down to let the engine assist the brakes on a steep downhill slope.
Winter Driving Driving on Snow or Ice Drive carefully when there is snow or ice between the tires and the road, creating less traction or grip. Wet ice can occur at about 0°C (32°F) when freezing rain begins to fall, resulting in even less traction.
{ W ARNING: Snow can trap engine exhaust under the vehicle. This may cause exhaust gases to get inside. Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide (CO) which cannot be seen or smelled. It can cause unconsciousness and even death. If the vehicle is stuck in the snow: .
If Y our V ehicle is Stuck in Sand, Mud, Ice, or Snow Slowly and cautiously spin the wheels to free the vehicle when stuck in sand, mud, ice, or snow. See Rocking Y our Vehicle to Get It Out on page 5 ‑ 24 . If the vehicle has a traction system, it can often help to free a stuck vehicle.
Loading the V ehicle It is very important to know how much weight your vehicle can carry . This weight is called the vehicle capacity weight and includes the weight of all occupants, cargo and all nonfactory ‐ installed options.
The Tire and Loading Information label also shows the tire size of the original equipment tires (C) and the recommended cold tire inflation pressures (D). For more information on tires and inflation see Tires on page 6 ‑ 57 and Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 6 ‑ 66 .
Example 1 Item Description T otal A V ehicle Capacity Weight for Example 1 = 1,000 lbs (453 kg) B Subtract Occupant Weight @ 150 lbs (68 kg) × 2 = 300 lbs (136 kg) C Available Occupant and Cargo Weig.

T owing a T railer (Automatic T ransmission) { W ARNING: The driver can lose control when pulling a trailer if the correct equipment is not used or the vehicle is not driven properly . For example, if the trailer is too heavy , the brakes may not work well — or even at all.
Pulling A T railer If you do, here are some important points: . There are many different laws, including speed limit restrictions, having to do with trailering. Make sure the rig will be legal, not only where you live but also where you will be driving.
Weight of the T railer T ongue The tongue load (A) of any trailer is an important weight to measure because it affects the total gross weight of the vehicle. The Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) includes the curb weight of the vehicle, any cargo carried in it, and the people who will be riding in the vehicle.
Hitches It is important to have the correct hitch equipment. Crosswinds, large trucks going by and rough roads are a few reasons why the right hitch is needed. . The rear bumper on the vehicle is not intended for hitches. Do not attach rental hitches or other bumper-type hitches to it.
Following Distance Stay at least twice as far behind the vehicle ahead as you would when driving the vehicle without a trailer . This can help to avoid situations that require heavy braking and sudden turns. Passing More passing distance is needed when towing a trailer .
Driving on Grades Notice: Do not tow on steep continuous grades exceeding 6 miles (9.6 km). Extended, higher than normal engine and transmission temperatures may result and damage the vehicle. Frequent stops are very important to allow the engine and transmission to cool.
Leaving After Parking on a Hill 1. Apply and hold the brake pedal while you: . Start the engine. . Shift into a gear. . Release the parking brake. 2. Let up on the brake pedal. 3. Drive slowly until the trailer is clear of the chocks. 4. Stop and have someone pick up and store the chocks.

When to Add Engine Oil If the oil is below the MIN (minimum) mark, add at least one quart/liter of the recommended oil. This section explains what kind of oil to use. For engine oil crankcase capacity , see Capacities and Specifications on page 6 ‑ 131 .
What Kind of Engine Oil to Use For V ehicles With the 2.2L L4 Engine Look for three things: . GM6094M Use only an oil that meets GM Standard GM6094M. . SAE 5W-30 SAE 5W-30 is best for the vehicle. These numbers on an oil container show its viscosity , or thickness.
For V ehicles with the 2.0L L4 Engine Only Look for three things: . GM4718M This vehicle's engine requires a special oil meeting GM Standard GM4718M, such as Mobil 1 ® or equivalent. Oils meeting this standard may be identified as synthetic. However , not all synthetic oils will meet this GM standard.
Cold T emperature Operation For V ehicles With the 2.2L L4 Engine If in an area of extreme cold, where the temperature falls below − 20°F ( − 29°C), use either an SAE 5W-30 synthetic oil or an SAE 0W-30 engine oil. Both provide easier cold starting for the engine at extremely low temperatures.
year and at this time the system must be reset. Y our dealer/retailer has trained service people who will perform this work using genuine parts and reset the system.
What to Do with Used Oil Used engine oil contains certain elements that can be unhealthy for your skin and could even cause cancer. Do not let used oil stay on your skin for very long. Clean your skin and nails with soap and water , or a good hand cleaner .
How to Inspect the Engine Air Cleaner/Filter { W ARNING: Operating the engine with the air cleaner/filter off can cause you or others to be burned. The air cleaner not only cleans the air; it helps to stop flames if the engine backfires. Use caution when working on the engine and do not drive with the air cleaner/filter off.
6. Remove filter and inspect or replace. Wipe all dust from inside of the housing and inspect the air cleaner and air outlet duct for cracks, cuts, and deterioration. The air outlet duct must be replaced if damaged. 7. Reinstall the filter cover and latch the clamps.
How to Inspect the Engine Air Cleaner/Filter { W ARNING: Operating the engine with the air cleaner/filter off can cause you or others to be burned. The air cleaner not only cleans the air; it helps to stop flames if the engine backfires. Use caution when working on the engine and do not drive with the air cleaner/filter off.
Automatic T ransmission Fluid It is not necessary to check the transmission fluid level. A transmission fluid leak is the only reason for fluid loss. If a leak occurs, take your vehicle to a dealer/ retailer and have it repaired as soon as possible. Change the fluid and filter at the intervals listed in the Maintenance Schedule.
Cooling System The Cooling System allows the engine to maintain the correct working temperature. 2.2L L4 Engine shown, 2.0L L4 Engine similar A. Electric Engine Cooling Fan B. Coolant Surge T ank and Pressure Cap { W ARNING: An electric engine cooling fan under the hood can start up even when the engine is not running and can cause injury .
{ W ARNING: Heater and radiator hoses, and other engine parts, can be very hot. Do not touch them. If you do, you can be burned. Do not run the engine if there is a leak. If you run the engine, it could lose all coolant. That could cause an engine fire, and you could be burned.
What to Use { W ARNING: Adding only plain water to the cooling system can be dangerous. Plain water , or some other liquid such as alcohol, can boil before the proper coolant mixture will. The vehicle's coolant warning system is set for the proper coolant mixture.
Checking Coolant The vehicle must be on a level surface when checking the coolant level. The coolant surge tank is located in the engine compartment on the driver's side of the vehicle. See Engine Compartment Overview on page 6 ‑ 14 for more information on location.
How to Add Coolant to the Surge T ank { W ARNING: Y ou can be burned if you spill coolant on hot engine parts. Coolant contains ethylene glycol and it will burn if the engine parts are hot enough. Do not spill coolant on a hot engine. Notice: This vehicle has a specific coolant fill procedure.
If coolant is needed, add the proper DEX-COOL ® coolant mixture at the coolant surge tank. 1. Y ou can remove the coolant surge tank pressure cap when the cooling system, including the coolant surge tank pressure cap and upper radiator hose, is no longer hot.
4. With the coolant surge tank pressure cap off, start the engine and let it run until you can feel the upper radiator hose getting hot. Watch out for the engine cooling fan. By this time, the coolant level inside the coolant surge tank may be lower .
If Steam Is Coming From The Engine Compartment { W ARNING: Steam from an overheated engine can burn you badly , even if you just open the hood. Stay away from the engine if you see or hear steam coming from it. Just turn it off and get everyone away from the vehicle until it cools down.
If the temperature overheat gauge is no longer in the overheat zone or an overheat warning no longer displays, the vehicle can be driven. Continue to drive the vehicle slow for about 10 minutes. Keep a safe vehicle distance from the car in front of you.
Brakes Brake Fluid The brake master cylinder and, on manual transmission vehicles, the clutch hydraulic system use the same reservoir filled with DOT 3 brake fluid. See Engine Compartment Overview on page 6 ‑ 14 for the location of the reservoir. There are only two reasons why the brake fluid level in the reservoir might go down: .
What to Add Use only new DOT 3 brake fluid from a sealed container . See Recommended Fluids and Lubricants on page 7 ‑ 1 1 . Always clean the brake fluid reservoir cap and the area around the cap before removing it. This helps keep dirt from entering the reservoir .
Brake Wear This vehicle has front disc brakes and could have rear drum brakes or rear disc brakes. Disc brake pads have built-in wear indicators that make a high-pitched warning sound when the brake pads are worn and new pads are needed.
Brake Pedal T ravel See your dealer/retailer if the brake pedal does not return to normal height, or if there is a rapid increase in pedal travel. This could be a sign that brake service might be required. Brake Adjustment Every moderate brake stop, the disc brakes adjust for wear .
Battery Refer to the replacement number on the original battery label when a new battery is needed. The battery is in the trunk. Access to the battery is not necessary to jump start the vehicle.
Jump Starting If the vehicle's battery has run down, you may want to use another vehicle and some jumper cables to start the vehicle. Be sure to use the following steps to do it safely . { W ARNING: Batteries can hurt you. They can be dangerous because: .

Tires Y our new vehicle comes with high-quality tires made by a leading tire manufacturer . If you ever have questions about the tire warranty and where to obtain service, see the vehicle warranty booklet for details. For additional information refer to the tire manufacturer .
Low-Profile Performance Tire If the vehicle has 225/40R18 size tires, they are classified as low ‐ profile performance tires. These tires are designed for very responsive driving on wet or dry pavement. Y ou may also notice more road noise with low ‐ profile performance tires and that they tend to wear faster .
If you choose to use winter tires: . Use tires of the same brand and tread type on all four wheel positions. . Use only radial ply tires of the same size, load range, and speed rating as the original equipment tires.
(B) TPC Spec (Tire Performanc e Criteria Specification) : Original equipment tires designed to GM's specific tire performance criteria have a TPC specification code molded onto the sidewall. GM's TPC specifications meet or exceed all federal safety guidelines.
Compact Spare Tire Example (A) T emporary Use Only : The compact spare tire or temporary use tire has a tread life of approximately 3,000 miles (5 000 km) and should not be driven at speeds over 65 mph (105 km/h). The compact spare tire is for emergency use when a regular road tire has lost air and gone flat.
(G) TPC Spec (Tire Performanc e Criteria Specification) : Original equipment tires designed to GM's specific tire performance criteria have a TPC specification code molded onto the sidewall. GM's TPC specifications meet or exceed all federal safety guidelines.
Tire T erminology and Definitions Air Pressure : The amount of air inside the tire pressing outward on each square inch of the tire. Air pressure is expressed in pounds per square inch (psi) or kilopascal (kPa). Accessory Weight : This means the combined weight of optional accessories .
Intended Outboard Sidewall : The side of an asymmetrical tire, that must always face outward when mounted on a vehicle. Kilopascal (kPa) : The metric unit for air pressure. Light T ruck (L T ‐ Metric) Tire : A tire used on light duty trucks and some multipurpose passenger vehicles.
Radial Ply Tire : A pneumatic tire in which the ply cords that extend to the beads are laid at 90 degrees to the centerline of the tread. Rim : A metal support for a tire and upon which the tire beads are seated. Sidewall : The portion of a tire between the tread and the bead.
Inflation - Tire Pressure T ires need the correct amount of air pressure to operate effectively . Notice: Do not let anyone tell you that under ‐ inflation or over ‐ inflation is all right. It is not. If your tires do not have enough air (under ‐ inflation), you can get the following: .
How to Check Use a good quality pocket-type gauge to check tire pressure. Y ou cannot tell if your tires are properly inflated simply by looking at them. Radial tires may look properly inflated even when they are under ‐ inflated. Check the tire's inflation pressure when the tires are cold.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver's responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under ‐ inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
At the same time a message to check the pressure in a specific tire appears on the Driver Information Center (DIC) display . The low tire pressure warning light and the DIC warning message come on at each ignition cycle until the tires are inflated to the correct inflation pressure.
TPMS Malfunction Light and Message The TPMS will not function properly if one or more of the TPMS sensors are missing or inoperable. When the system detects a malfunction, the low tire warning light flashes for about one minute and then stays on for the remainder of the ignition cycle.
TPMS Sensor Matching Process Each TPMS sensor has a unique identification code. Any time you replace one or more of the TPMS sensors or rotate the vehicle's tires, the identification codes need to be matched to the new tire/wheel location.
6. The passenger side front turn signal comes on to indicate that corner sensor is ready to be learned. Proceed to the passenger side front tire and repeat the procedure in Step 5. 7. The passenger side rear turn signal comes on to indicate that corner sensor is ready to be learned.
7. The passenger side front turn signal comes on to indicate that corner sensor is ready to be learned. Proceed to the passenger side front tire and repeat the procedure in Step 6. 8. The passenger side rear turn signal comes on to indicate that corner sensor is ready to be learned.
When rotating the vehicle's tires, always use the correct rotation pattern shown here. Do not include the compact spare tire, if the vehicle has one, in the tire rotation. After the tires have been rotated, adjust the front and rear inflation pressures as shown on the Tire and Loading Information label.
When It Is Time for New Tires V arious factors, such as maintenance, temperatures, driving speeds, vehicle loading, and road conditions influence when you need new tires. One way to tell when it is time for new tires is to check the treadwear indicators, which will appear when your tires have only 1/16 inch (1.
Buying New Tires GM has developed and matched specific tires for your vehicle. The original equipment tires installed on your vehicle, when it was new , were designed to meet General Motors T ire Performance Criteria Specification (TPC Spec) system rating.
{ W ARNING: If you use bias-ply tires on the vehicle, the wheel rim flanges could develop cracks after many miles of driving. A tire and/or wheel could fail suddenly , causing a crash.
Different Size Tires and Wheels If you add wheels or tires that are a different size than your original equipment wheels and tires, this may affect the way your vehicle performs, including its braking, ride and handling characteristics, stability , and resistance to rollover .
While the tires available on General Motors passenger cars and light trucks may vary with respect to these grades, they must also conform to federal safety requirements and additional General Motors Tire Performa nce Criteria (TPC) standards. All Passenger Car T ires Must Conform to Federal Safety Requirements In Addition T o These Grades.
T emperature – A, B, C The temperature grades are A (the highest), B, and C, representing the tire's resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat when tested under controlled conditions on a specified indoor laboratory test wheel.
Each new wheel should have the same load-carrying capacity , diameter , width, offset, and be mounted the same way as the one it replaces. If you need to replace any of your wheels, wheel bolts, wheel nuts, or Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) sensors, replace them only with new GM original equipment parts.
Tire Chains { W ARNING: If your vehicle has P195/65R15, P205/55R16, P205/50R17, or 225/40R18 size tires, do not use tire chains. They can damage your vehicle because there is not enough clearance. T ire chains used on a vehicle without the proper amount of clearance can cause damage to the brakes, suspension, or other vehicle parts.
A rear blowout, particularly on a curve, acts much like a skid and may require the same correction you would use in a skid. In any rear blowout, remove your foot from the accelerator pedal. Get the vehicle under control by steering the way you want the vehicle to go.
Tire Sealant and Compressor Kit { W ARNING: Idling a vehicle in an enclosed area with poor ventilation is dangerous. Engine exhaust may enter the vehicle. Engine exhaust contains Carbon Monoxide (CO) which cannot be seen or smelled. It can cause unconsciousness and even death.
