Manual Lumbar On vehicles with front seat manual lumbar , the adjustment lever is located on the outboard side of the seatback.
Reclining Seatbacks { 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. Adjust the driver's seat only when the vehicle is not moving.
{ 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 .
Rear Seats Rear Seat Operation (Sedan) Folding the Seatbacks The rear seatbacks can be folded down to increase cargo space. T o fold down the seatbacks: Notice: Folding a rear seat with the safety belts still fastened may cause damage to the seat or the safety belts.
4. Detach the center safety belt from the mini buckle by inserting the ignition key into the slot in the mini buckle, pressing the release button, and allowing the belt to retract. 5. Pull up the release knob located on top of either of the rear seatbacks.
Unfolding the Seatbacks T o return the seatback to the upright position: 1. Hook the safety belts into the safety belt guide. 2. Lift the seatback up and push it to its original position. { W ARNING: If either seatback is not locked, it could move forward in a sudden stop or crash.

Make sure the straps of the safety belt and buckles are not twisted. 8. T o reattach the center seat safety belt to the mini buckle, pull it from the retractor .
{ 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.
Put someone on it. Get it up to speed. Then stop the vehicle. The rider does not stop. 2-16.
The person keeps going until stopped by something. In a real vehicle, it could be the windshield... or the instrument panel... 2-17.
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. That is why safety belts make such good sense. 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.
Q: If I am a good driver, and I never drive far from home, why should I wear safety belts? A: Y ou may be an excellent driver , but if you are in a crash — even one that is not your fault — you and your passenger(s) can be hurt. Being a good driver does not protect you from things beyond your control, such as bad drivers.
Sit up straight and always keep your feet on the floor in front of you. The lap part of the belt should be worn low and snug on the hips, just touching the thighs. In a crash, this applies force to the strong pelvic bones and you would be less likely to slide under the lap belt.
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. If you are using a rear seating position with a detachable safety belt and the safety belt is not attached, see Rear Seat Operation (Sedan) on page 2 ‑ 8 or Rear Seat Operation (Hatchback) on page 2 ‑ 10 for instruction on reconnecting the safety belt to the mini-buckle.
4. Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks. If the latch plate will not go fully into the buckle, check if the correct buckle is being used. 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 ‑ 32 .
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 belt is out of the way . If a door is slammed against a safety belt, damage can occur to both the safety 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 . They can help tighten the safety belts during the early stages of a moderate to severe frontal or near frontal crash if the threshold conditions for pretensioner activation are met.
Safety Belt Extender If the vehicle's safety belt will fasten around you, you should use it. But if a safety belt is not long enough, your dealer/ retailer will order you an extender . When you go in to order it, take the heaviest coat you will wear , so the extender will be long enough for you.
. Buckle the lap-shoulder belt. Does the shoulder belt rest on the shoulder? If yes, continue. If no, then return to the booster seat. . Does the lap belt fit low and snug on the hips, touching the thighs? If yes, continue. If no, return to the booster seat.
{ 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. In fact, the law in every state in the United States and in every Canadian province says children up to some age must be restrained while in a vehicle.
{ W ARNING: Never do this. Never hold an infant or a child while riding in a vehicle. Due to crash forces, an infant or a child will become so heavy it is not possible to hold it during a crash. For example, in a crash at only 40 km/h (25 mph), a 5.5 kg (12 lb) infant will suddenly become a 1 10 kg (240 lb) force on a person's arms.
{ 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 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. Selection of a particular restraint should take into consideration not only the child's weight, height, and age but also whether or not the restraint will be compatible with the motor vehicle in which it will be used.
{ 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 . Securing an Add-On Child Restraint in the V ehicle { W ARNING: A child can be seriously injured or killed in a crash if the child restraint is not properly secured in the vehicle.
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 .
Where to Put the Restraint Accident statistics show that children are safer if they are restrained in the rear rather than the front seat. We recommend that children and child restraints be secured in a rear seat, including: an infant or a child riding in a rear-facing child restraint; a child riding in a forward-facing child seat; an older child riding in a booster seat; and children, who are large enough, using safety belts.
There are a couple of things you need to know about using child restraints in your rear seat: If you use a child restraint in the center rear seating position (A), the safety belts and the child restraint LA TCH anchors for the rear outside seating positions (B) will not be accessible.
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 lower anchors, each seating position with lower anchors has two labels, near the crease between the seatback and the seat cushion. Hatchback models may have zippers over the lower anchor areas. If so, unzip the seat cover below the labels to access each lower anchor .
Hatchback For hatchback models, the top tether anchors (B) are located in the rear cargo area, attached to the back wall (A) of the vehicle. Squeeze and pull the front part of the plastic cover to access the top tether anchors. Remove the cargo shade before installing the top tether.
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.
2. 5. Route and tighten the top tether according to your child restraint instructions and the following instructions: If the position you are using does not have a headrest or head restraint and you are using a single tether , route the tether over the seatback.
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. If your child restraint has the LA TCH system, see Lower Anchors and T ethers for Children (LA TCH) on page 2 ‑ 44 for how to install your child restraint using LA TCH.
3. Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks. If you find that the latch plate will not go fully into the buckle, see if you are using the correct buckle. Make sure the release button is positioned so you would be able to unbuckle the safety belt quickly if necessary .
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.
A label on the sun visor says, “ Never put a rear-facing child seat 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.
In Canada, the law requires that forward-facing child restraints have a top tether , and that the tether be attached. Y ou will be using the lap-shoulder belt to secure the child restraint in this position. Follow the instructions that came with the child restraint.
4. Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks. Position the release button on the buckle so that the safety belt could be quickly unbuckled if necessary . 5. Pull the rest of the shoulder belt all the way out of the retractor to set the lock.
6. 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.
Airbag System The vehicle has the following airbags: . A frontal airbag for the driver . . A frontal airbag for the right front passenger . The vehicle may have the following airbags: . A seat-mounted side impact airbag for the driver . . A seat-mounted side impact airbag for the right front passenger .
{ W ARNING: Airbags inflate with great force, faster than the blink of an eye. Anyone who is up against, or very close to, any airbag when it inflates can be seriously injured or killed. Do not sit unnecessarily close to the airbag, as you would be if you were sitting on the edge of your seat or leaning forward.
Where Are the Airbags? The driver's frontal airbag is in the middle of the steering wheel. The right front passenger's frontal airbag is in the instrument panel on the passenger's side.
Driver Side shown, Passenger Side similar If your vehicle has seat-mounted side impact airbags for the driver and right front passenger , they are in the side of the seatbacks closest to the door . { W ARNING: If something is between an occupant and an airbag, the airbag might not inflate properly or it might force the object into that person causing severe injury or even death.
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. However , they are only designed to inflate if the impact exceeds a predetermined deployment threshold.
Seat-mounted side impact airbags are not intended to inflate in frontal impacts, near-frontal impacts, rollovers, or rear impacts. A seat-mounted side impact airbag is intended to deploy on the side of the vehicle that is struck. In any particular crash, no one can say whether an airbag should have inflated simply because of the damage to a vehicle or because of what the repair costs were.
What Will Y ou See After an Airbag Inflates? After the frontal and seat-mounted side impact airbags inflate, they quickly deflate, so quickly that some people may not even realize the airbags inflated. Some components of the airbag module may be hot for several minutes.
In many crashes severe enough to inflate the airbag, windshields are broken by vehicle deformation. Additional windshield breakage may also occur from the right front passenger airbag. . Airbags are designed to inflate only once. After an airbag inflates, you will need some new parts for the airbag system.
The passenger sensing system will turn off the right front passenger frontal airbag and seat-mounted side impact airbag (if equipped) under certain conditions. The driver airbags are not affected by the passenger sensing system. The passenger sensing system works with sensors that are part of the right front passenger seat.
The passenger sensing system is designed to turn off the right front passenger frontal airbag and seat-mounted side impact airbag (if equipped) if: . The right front passenger seat is unoccupied. . The system determines that an infant 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. If this happens, use the following steps to allow the system to detect that person and enable the right front passenger frontal airbag and seat-mounted side impact airbag (if equipped): 1.
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. See “ Safety Belts ” and “ Child Restraints ” in the Index for additional information about the importance of proper restraint use.
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 your 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. T o help make sure your restraint systems are working properly after a crash, have them inspected and any necessary replacements made 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 ‑ 14 . { W ARNING: Assume that other road users (pedestrians, bicyclists, and other drivers) are going to be careless and make mistakes.
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.
Remember: ABS does not change the time needed to get a foot up to the brake pedal or always decrease stopping distance. If you get too close to the vehicle in front of you, there will not be enough time to apply the brakes if that vehicle suddenly slows or stops.
If there is a need to reduce speed, do it before entering the curve, while the front wheels are straight. T ry to adjust the speed so you can drive through the curve. Maintain a reasonable, steady speed. W ait to accelerate until out of the curve, and then accelerate gently into the straightaway .
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.
Loss of Control Let us review what driving experts say about what happens when the three control systems — brakes, steering, and acceleration — do not have enough friction where the tires meet the road to do what the driver has asked. In any emergency , do not give up.
Driving at Night Night driving is more dangerous than day driving because some drivers are likely to be impaired — by alcohol or drugs, with night vision problems, or by fatigue. Night driving tips include: . Drive defensively . . Do not drink and drive.
Hydroplaning Hydroplaning is dangerous. Water can build up under your vehicle's tires so they actually ride on the water . This can happen if the road is wet enough and you are going fast enough. When your vehicle is hydroplaning, it has little or no contact with the road.
Hill and Mountain Roads Driving on steep hills or through mountains is different than driving on flat or rolling terrain. Tips for driving in these conditions include: . Keep the vehicle serviced and in good shape. . Check all fluid levels and brakes, tires, cooling system, and transmission.
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 V ehicle to Get It Out on page 5 ‑ 14 . { W ARNING: If you let your vehicle's tires spin at high speed, they can explode, and you or others could be injured.
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 or maximum load amount and includes the weight of all occupants, cargo, and all nonfactory ‐ installed options.
The T ire 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 ‑ 51 and Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 6 ‑ 58 .
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.
Example 3 Item Description T otal A V ehicle Capacity Weight for Example 3 = 1,000 lbs (453 kg) B Subtract Occupant Weight @ 200 lbs (91 kg) × 5 = 1,000 lbs (453 kg) C Available Cargo Weight = 0 lbs (0 kg) Refer to your vehicle's tire and loading information label for specific information about your vehicle's capacity weight and seating positions.
Certification Label Label Example ‐ United States Label Example ‐ Canada A vehicle specific Certification label is attached to the center pillar (B ‐ pillar), below the driver's door latch. This label tells you the gross weight capacity of your vehicle, called the Gross V ehicle Weight Rating (GVWR).
If there is a heavy load, it should be spread out. See “ Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit ” earlier in this section. { W ARNING: Do not load the vehicle any heavier than the Gross V ehicle Weight Rating (GVWR), or either the maximum front or rear Gross Axle Weight Rating (GA WR).
T owing T owing Y our V ehicle T o avoid damage, the disabled vehicle should be towed with all four wheels off the ground. Consult your dealer/ retailer or a professional towing service if the disabled vehicle must be towed. See Roadside Assistance Program on page 8 ‑ 7 .
Dinghy T owing Notice: If the vehicle is towed with all four wheels on the ground, the drivetrain components could be damaged. The repairs would not be covered by the vehicle warranty . Do not tow the vehicle with all four wheels on the ground. The vehicle was not designed to be towed with all four wheels on the ground.
4. Set the parking brake and remove the key . 5. For an automatic transmission, insert the key into the shift ‐ lock release slot and shift to N (Neutral). See Shifting Out of Park on page 3 ‑ 30 . 6. Clamp the steering wheel in a straight-ahead position with a clamping device designed for towing.

Service For service and parts needs, visit your dealer/retailer . Y ou will receive genuine GM parts and GM-trained and supported service people. Genuine GM parts have one of these marks: Accessories and Modifications When non ‐ dealer/non ‐ retailer accessories are added to the vehicle, they can affect vehicle performance and safety , including such things as airbags, braking, stability , ride and handling, emissions systems, aerodynamics, durability , and electronic systems like antilock brakes, traction control, and stability control.
California Proposition 65 W arning Most motor vehicles, including this one, contain and/or emit chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Engine exhaust, many parts and systems, many fluids, and some component wear by-products contain and/or emit these chemicals.
Keep a record with all parts receipts and list the mileage and the date of any service work performed. See Maintenance Record on page 7 ‑ 15 . Adding Equipment to the Outside of the V ehicle Things added to the outside of the vehicle can affect the airflow around it.
Gasoline Specifications At a minimum, gasoline should meet ASTM specification D 4814 in the United States or CAN/CGSB ‐ 3.5 or 3.51 1 in Canada. Some gasolines contain an octane-enhancing additive called methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl (MMT).
Gasolines containing oxygenates, such as ethers and ethanol, and reformulated gasolines might be available in your area. We recommend that you use these gasolines, if they comply with the specifications described earlier . However , E85 (85% ethanol) and other fuels containing more than 10% ethanol must not be used in vehicles that were not designed for those fuels.
W ARNING: (Continued) Keep sparks, flames, and smoking materials away from fuel. Do not leave the fuel pump unattended when refueling the vehicle. This is against the law in some places. Do not re-enter the vehicle while pumping fuel. Keep children away from the fuel pump; never let children pump fuel.
T o remove the fuel cap, turn it slowly counterclockwise. The fuel cap has a spring in it; if the cap is released too soon, it will spring back to the right. { W ARNING: Fuel can spray out on you if you open the fuel cap too quickly . If you spill fuel and then something ignites it, you could be badly burned.
Filling a Portable Fuel Container { W ARNING: Never fill a portable fuel container while it is in the vehicle. Static electricity discharge from the container can ignite the fuel vapor . Y ou can be badly burned and the vehicle damaged if this occurs.
Hood Release T o open the hood: 1. Pull the hood release handle inside the vehicle. It is located on the lower left side of the instrument panel. 2. At the front of the vehicle, lift up on the secondary hood release lever , located under the front center of the hood.

Checking Engine Oil It is a good idea to check the engine oil level at each fuel fill. In order to get an accurate reading, the oil must be warm and the vehicle must be on level ground. The engine oil dipstick handle is a yellow loop. See Engine Compartment Overview on page 6 ‑ 14 for the location of the engine oil dipstick.
What Kind of Engine Oil to Use 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. Do not use other viscosity oils such as SAE 20W-50.
Cold T emperature Operation If in an area of extreme cold, where the temperature falls below − 29°C ( − 20°F), 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.
How to Reset the Engine Oil Life System The Engine Oil Life System calculates when to change your engine oil and filter based on vehicle use. Whenever the oil is changed, reset the system so it can calculate when the next oil change is required. If a situation occurs where the oil is changed prior to a change engine oil light being turned on, reset the system.
T o inspect or replace the air cleaner/filter: 1. Remove the screws and lift off the cover . 2. Inspect or replace the engine air cleaner/filter . 3. Put the cover back on tightly and tighten the screws. See Scheduled Maintenance on page 7 ‑ 3 for replacement intervals.
How to Check Automatic T ransmission Fluid Because this operation can be a little difficult, you may choose to have this done at the dealer/retailer service department. If you do it yourself, be sure to follow all the instructions here, or you could get a false reading on the dipstick.
Then, without shutting off the engine, follow these steps: 1. Locate the automatic transmission dipstick which is located toward the front of the engine compartment, near the power steering fluid reservoir . See Engine Compartment Overview on page 6 ‑ 14 for more information on location.
Manual 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 the vehicle to the dealer/retailer service department and have it repaired as soon as possible.
How to Check and Add Fluid The reservoir is located near the back of the engine compartment on the driver side of the vehicle. See Engine Compartment Overview on page 6 ‑ 14 for more information on location. T o check the fluid level, look on the side of the reservoir .
{ W ARNING: An electric engine cooling fan under the hood can start up even when the engine is not running and can cause injury . Keep hands, clothing, and tools away from any underhood electric fan. { W ARNING: Heater and radiator hoses, and other engine parts, can be very hot.
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.
If coolant is visible but the coolant level is not between the Minimum and Maximum marks, add a 50/50 mixture of clean, drinkable water and DEX-COOL ® coolant at the coolant surge tank, but be sure the cooling system is cool before this is done. See Engine Coolant on page 6 ‑ 25 for more information.
How to Add Coolant to the Coolant 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.
2. Then keep turning the pressure cap slowly and remove it. 3. Fill the coolant surge tank with the proper mixture to the Maximum mark on the coolant surge tank. W ait about five minutes, then check to see if the level is below the mark. If the level is below the Maximum mark, add additional coolant to bring the level up to the mark.
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. W atch out for the engine cooling fan. By this time, the coolant level inside the coolant surge tank may be lower .
W ARNING: (Continued) If you keep driving when your engine is overheated, the liquids in it can catch fire. Y ou or others could be badly burned. Stop your engine if it overheats, and get out of the vehicle until the engine is cool. If No Steam Is Coming From The Engine Compartment If an engine overheat warning is displayed but no steam can be seen or heard, the problem may not be too serious.
Power Steering Fluid When to Check Power Steering Fluid The power steering fluid reservoir is located toward the front of the engine compartment on the driver's side of the vehicle. See Engine Compartment Overview on page 6 ‑ 14 for reservoir location.
What to Use T o determine what kind of fluid to use, see Recommended Fluids and Lubricants on page 7 ‑ 1 1 . Always use the proper fluid. Failure to use the proper fluid can cause leaks and damage hoses and seals. Windshield W asher Fluid What to Use When you need windshield washer fluid, be sure to read the manufacturer's instructions before use.
Brakes Brake Fluid The vehicle has one reservoir for both the brake and clutch hydraulic systems. It is 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: .
{ W ARNING: With the wrong kind of fluid in the brake or clutch hydraulic system, the brakes or clutch might not work well. This could cause a crash. Always use the proper brake fluid. Notice: . Using the wrong fluid can badly damage brake or clutch hydraulic system parts.
Properly torqued wheel nuts are necessary to help prevent brake pulsation. When tires are rotated, inspect brake pads for wear and evenly tighten wheel nuts in the proper sequence to torque specifications in Capacities and Specifications on page 6 ‑ 93 .
Battery Refer to the replacement number on the original battery label when a new battery is needed. See Engine Compartment Overview on page 6 ‑ 14 for battery location. { DANGER: Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds, chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and reproductive harm.
Jump Starting If the vehicle's battery has run down, you may want to use another vehicle and some jumper cables to start your vehicle. Be sure to use the following steps to do it safely . { W ARNING: Batteries can hurt you. They can be dangerous because: .
Notice: If you leave the radio or other accessories on during the jump starting procedure, they could be damaged. The repairs would not be covered by the warranty . Always turn off the radio and other accessories when jump starting the vehicle. 3. T urn off the ignition on both vehicles.
{ W ARNING: Fans or other moving engine parts can injure you badly . Keep your hands away from moving parts once the engine is running. 5. Check that the jumper cables do not have loose or missing insulation. If they do, you could get a shock. The vehicles could be damaged too.
7. Do not let the other end touch metal. Connect it to the positive (+) terminal of the good battery . Use a remote positive (+) terminal if the vehicle has one. 8. Now connect the black negative ( − ) cable to the negative ( − ) terminal of the good battery .
9. Connect the other end of the negative ( − ) cable at least 18 inches (45 cm) away from the dead battery , but not near engine parts that move. The electrical connection is just as good there, and the chance of sparks getting back to the battery is much less.

Windshield Wiper Blade Replacement Windshield wiper blades should be inspected for wear or cracking. See “ Wiper Blade Check ” for more information. Replacement blades come in different types and are removed in different ways. For the proper type, see Maintenance Replacement Parts on page 7 ‑ 13 .
Tires Y our new vehicle comes with high-quality tires made by a leading tire manufact urer . If you ever have questions about your tire warranty and where to obtain service, see your vehicle W arranty booklet for details. For additional information refer to the tire manufacturer .
Tire Sidewall Labeling Useful information about a tire is molded into its sidewall. The examples below show a typical passenger car tire and a compact spare tire sidewall. Passenger Car Tire Example (A) Tire Size : The tire size is a combination of letters and numbers used to define a particular tire's width, height, aspect ratio, construction type and service description.
(F) Maximum Cold Inflation Load Limit : Maximum load that can be carried and the maximum pressure needed to support that load. For information on recommen ded tire pressure see Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 6 ‑ 58 and Loading the V ehicle on page 5 ‑ 15 .
(D) Maximum Cold Inflation Load Limit : Maximum load that can be carried and the maximum pressure needed to support that load. See Compact Spare Tire on page 6 ‑ 78 and Loading the V ehicle on page 5 ‑ 15 . (E) Tire Inflation : The temporary use tire or compact spare tire should be inflated to 60 psi (420 kPa).
(C) Aspect Ratio : A two ‐ digit number that indicates the tire height ‐ to ‐ width measurem ents. For example, if the tire size aspect ratio is 70, as shown in item C of the illustration, it would mean that the tire's sidewall is 70% as high as it is wide.
Cold Tire Pressure : The amount of air pressure in a tire, measured in pounds per square inch (psi) or kilopascals (kPa) before a tire has built up heat from driving. See Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 6 ‑ 58 . Curb Weight : The weight of a motor vehicle with standard and optional equipment including the maximum capacity of fuel, oil, and coolant, but without passengers and cargo.
Occupant Distribution : Designated seating positions. Outward Facing Sidewall : The side of an asymmetrical tire that has a particula r side that faces outward when mounted on a vehicle. The side of the tire that contains a whitewall, bears white lettering, or bears manufacture r , brand, and/or model name molding that is higher or deeper than the same moldings on the other sidewall of the tire.
V ehicle Maximum Load on the Tire : Load on an individual tire due to curb weight, accessory weight, occupant weight, and cargo weight. V ehicle Placard : A label permanently attached to a vehicle showing the vehicle's capacity weight and the original equipment tire size and recommended inflation pressure.
When to Check Check your tires once a month or more. Do not forget to check the compact spare tire, it should be at 60 psi (420 kPa). For additional information regarding the compact spare tire, see Compact Spare Tire on page 6 ‑ 78 . How to Check Use a good quality pocket-type gauge to check tire pressure.
Accordingly , when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under ‐ inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure.
When a low tire pressure condition is detected, the TPMS illuminates the low tire pressure warning light on the instrument panel cluster . The low tire pressure warning light comes on at each ignition cycle until the tires are inflated to the correct inflation pressure.
. Replacement tires or wheels do not match your vehicle's original equipment tires or wheels. T ires and wheels other than those recommended for your vehicle could prevent the TPMS from functioning properly . See Buying New Tires on page 6 ‑ 64 .
When rotating your tires, always use the correct rotation pattern shown here. Do not include the compact spare tire 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 T ires 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.
GM recommends replacing tires in sets of four . This is because uniform tread depth on all tires will help keep your vehicle performing most like it did when the tires were new . Replacing less than a full set of tires can affect the braking and handling performance of your vehicle.
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 .
T readwear The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a specified government test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and a half (1½) times as well on the government course as a tire graded 100.
Wheel Alignment and Tire Balance The tires and wheels on your vehicle were aligned and balanced carefully at the factory to give you the longest tire life and best overall performance. Adjustments to wheel alignment and tire balancing will not be necessary on a regular basis.
Notice: The wrong wheel can also cause problems with bearing life, brake cooling, speedometer or odometer calibration, headlamp aim, bumper height, vehicle ground clearance, and tire or tire chain clearance to the body and chassis. See Changing a Flat Tire on page 6 ‑ 70 for more information.
Get the vehicle under control by steering the way you want the vehicle to go. It may be very bumpy and noisy , but you can still steer . Gently brake to a stop, well off the road if possible. { W ARNING: Lifting a vehicle and getting under it to do maintenance or repairs is dangerous without the appropriate safety equipment and training.
When the vehicle has a flat tire (B), use the following example as a guide to assist you in the placement of wheel blocks (A). A. Wheel Block B. Flat T ire The following information explains how to use the jack and change a tire. Removing the Spare Tire and T ools The compact spare tire and tools you will need are located in the trunk.
3. Remove the foam tray . 4. Remove the jack, the jack handle and the wheel wrench from the foam tray . 5. T urn the retainer counterclockwise and remove it from the compact spare. 6. Remove the compact spare tire. See Compact Spare Tire on page 6 ‑ 78 for more information.

V ehicle Data Recording and Privacy Y our GM vehicle has a number of sophisticated computers that record information about the vehicle ’ s performance and how it is driven. For example, your vehicle uses computer modules to monitor and control engine and transmission performance, to monitor the conditions for airbag deployment and deploy airbags in a crash and, if so equipped, to provide antilock braking to help the driver control the vehicle.
Important: EDR data is recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data is recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and no personal data (e.g., name, gender , age, and crash location) is recorded. However , other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired during a crash investigation.
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) RFID technology is used in some vehicles for functions such as tire pressure monitoring and ignition system security , as well as in connection with conveniences such as key fobs for remote door locking/unlocking and starting, and in-vehicle transmitters for garage door openers.
