{ W ARNING: A safety belt that is improperly routed, not properly attached, or twisted will not provide the protection needed in a crash. The person wearing the belt could be seriously injured. After raising the rear seatback, always check to be sure that the safety belts are properly routed and attached, and are not twisted.
{ W ARNING: People riding on the tailgate (if equipped) can easily lose their balance and fall even when the vehicle is operated at low speeds. Falling from a moving vehicle may result in serious injuries or death. { W ARNING: It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle.
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 except for the center front passenger position, if the vehicle has one, which has a lap belt. See Lap Belt on page 2 ‑ 35 for more information. The following instructions explain how to wear a lap-shoulder belt properly .
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. 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 ‑ 36 .
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 . They can help tighten the safety belts during the early stages of a moderate to severe frontal, near frontal, or rear crash if the threshold conditions for pretensioner activation are met.
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 .
T o make the belt shorter , pull its free end as shown until the belt is snug. If the belt is not long enough, see Safety Belt Extender on page 2 ‑ 36 . Make sure the release button on the buckle is positioned so you would be able to unbuckle the safety belt quickly if necessary .
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. 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. 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 (Continued) W ARNING: (Continued) 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.
T o help reduce the chance of injury , the child restraint must be secured in the vehicle. Child restraint systems must be secured in vehicle seats by lap belts or the lap belt portion of a lap-shoulder belt, or by the LA TCH system. See Lower Anchors and T ethers for Children (LA TCH) on page 2 ‑ 47 for more information.
A label on your 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.
{ W ARNING: A child in a child restraint in the center front seat can be badly injured or killed by the frontal airbags if they inflate. Never secure a child restraint in the center front seat. It is always better to secure a child restraint in a rear seat.
Lower Anchors Lower anchors (A) are metal bars built into the vehicle. There are two lower anchors for each LA TCH seating position that will accommodate a child restraint with lower attachments (B). T op T ether Anchor A top tether (A, C) anchors the top of the child restraint to the vehicle.
In Canada, the law requires that forward-facing child restraints have a top tether , and that the tether be attached. Be sure to read and follow the instructions for your child restraint. If the child restraint does not have a top tether , one can be obtained, in kit form, for many child restraints.
The top tether anchors are located on the back of the rear seat frame above the floor for each rear seating position. Fold down the rear seatback(s) to access the anchors. See Rear Seat Operation on page 2 ‑ 13 . Be sure to use an anchor located on the same side of the vehicle as the seating position where the child restraint will be placed.
{ W ARNING: Do not attach more than one child restraint to a single anchor . Attaching more than one child restraint to a single anchor could cause the anchor or attachment to come loose or even break during a crash. A child or others could be injured.
1. 3. Route 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. 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.
{ W ARNING: If either seatback is not locked, it could move forward in a sudden stop or crash. That could cause injury to the person sitting there. Always push and pull on the seatbacks to be sure they are locked. 1. 5. Lift the seatback up and push it rearward.
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 the child restraint to make sure it is compatible with this vehicle. If the child restraint has the LA TCH system, see Lower Anchors and T ethers for Children (LA TCH) on page 2 ‑ 47 for how and where to install the child restraint using LA TCH.
3. 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 . 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 . When installing a forward-facing child restraint, it may be 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 This vehicle has airbags. A rear seat is a safer place to secure a forward-facing child restraint. See Where to Put the Restraint on page 2 ‑ 45 . 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) on page 2 ‑ 47 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) on page 2 ‑ 47 for top tether anchor locations.
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 . When installing a forward-facing child restraint, it may be 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 . . A seat ‐ mounted side impact airbag for the driver . . A seat ‐ mounted side impact airbag for the right front passenger .
Here are the most important things to know about the airbag system: { W ARNING: Y ou can be severely injured or killed in a crash if you are not wearing your safety belt — even if you have airbags. Airbags are designed to work with safety belts, but do not replace them.
{ 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.
The right front passenger frontal airbag is in the instrument panel on the passenger's side. Driver Side Shown, Passenger Side Similar The seat ‐ mounted side impact airbags for the driver and right front passenger are in the side of the seatbacks closest to the door .
Driver Side shown, Passenger Side similar The roof-rail airbags for the driver , right front passenger , and second row outboard passengers are in the ceiling above the side windows. { 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.
In addition, the vehicle has dual-stage frontal airbags. Dual-stage airbags adjust the restraint according to crash severity . The vehicle has electronic frontal sensors, which help the sensing system distinguish between a moderate frontal impact and a more severe frontal impact.
What Makes an Airbag Inflate? In a deployment event, the sensing system sends an electrical signal triggering a release of gas from the inflator . Gas from the inflator fills the airbag causing the bag to break out of the cover and deploy . The inflator , the airbag, and related hardware are all part of the airbag module.
What Will Y ou See After an Airbag Inflates? After the frontal airbags and seat-mounted side impact 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 .
The vehicle has a feature that may automatically unlock the doors, turn on the interior lamps and hazard warning flashers, and shut off the fuel system after the airbags inflate. Y ou can lock the doors, turn off the interior lamps and hazard warning flashers by using the controls for those features.
Passenger Sensing System If the vehicle has the passenger airbag status indicator pictured in the following illustration, then the vehicle has a passenger sensing system for the right front passenger position. The passenger airbag status indicator , if equipped, is visible on the overhead console when the vehicle is started.
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.
When the passenger sensing system has turned off the right front passenger frontal airbag, the off indicator will light and stay lit to remind you that the airbag is off. See Passenger Airbag Status Indicator on page 4 ‑ 29 . The passenger sensing system is designed to turn on (may inflate) the right front passenger frontal airbag anytime the system senses that a person of adult size is sitting properly in the right front passenger seat.
4. Reinstall the child restraint following the directions provided by the child restraint manufacturer and refer to Securing a Child Restraint in the Right Front Seat Position on page 2 ‑ 57 . 5. If, after reinstalling the child restraint and restarting the vehicle, the on indicator is still lit, turn the vehicle off.
If this happens, use the following steps to allow the system to detect that person and enable the right front passenger frontal airbag: 1. T urn the vehicle off. 2. Remove any additional material from the seat, such as blankets, cushions, seat covers, seat heaters, or seat massagers.
Servicing Y our Airbag-Equipped V ehicle Airbags affect how the vehicle should be serviced. There are parts of the airbag system in several places around the vehicle. Y our dealer/retailer and the service manual have information about servicing the vehicle and the airbag system.
or with GM covers, upholstery or trim designed for a different vehicle. Any object, such as an aftermarket seat heater or a comfort enhancing pad or device, installed under or on top of the seat fabric, could also interfere with the operation of the passenger sensing system.
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 ‑ 15 . { 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.
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 front wheel and at both rear wheels.
StabiliT rak ® System The vehicle has a vehicle stability enhancement system called StabiliT rak. It is an advanced computer controlled system that assists the driver with directional control of the vehicle in difficult driving conditions. StabiliT rak activates when the computer senses a discrepancy between the intended path and the direction the vehicle is actually traveling.
The StabiliT rak light will flash on the instrument panel cluster when the system is both on and activated. The system may be heard or felt while it is working; this is normal. The traction control disable button is located on the instrument panel below the climate controls.
T raction Control Operation The traction control system is part of the StabiliTrak system. T raction control limits wheel spin by reducing engine power to the wheels (engine speed management) and by applying brakes to each individual wheel (brake-traction control) as necessary .
Steering Power Steering If power steering assist is lost because the engine stops or the system is not functioning, the vehicle can be steered but it will take more effort. Steering Tips It is important to take curves at a reasonable speed. T raction in a curve depends on the condition of the tires and the road surface, the angle at which the curve is banked, and vehicle speed.
An emergency like this requires close attention and a quick decision. If holding the steering wheel at the recommended 9 and 3 o'clock positions, it can be turned a full 180 degrees very quickly without removing either hand. But you have to act fast, steer quickly , and just as quickly straighten the wheel once you have avoided the object.
Passing Passing another vehicle on a two-lane road can be dangerous. T o reduce the risk of danger while passing: . Look down the road, to the sides, and to crossroads for situations that might affect a successful pass. If in doubt, wait. . W atch for traffic signs, pavement markings, and lines that could indicate a turn or an intersection.
While driving on a surface with reduced traction, try your best to avoid sudden steering, acceleration, or braking, including reducing vehicle speed by shifting to a lower gear . Any sudden changes could cause the tires to slide. Y ou may not realize the surface is slippery until the vehicle is skidding.
Before Y ou Go Off-Roading . Have all necessary maintenance and service work done. . Make sure there is enough fuel, that fluid levels are where they should be, and that the spare tire is fully inflated. . Be sure to read all the information about four-wheel-drive vehicles in this manual.
Loading Y our V ehicle for Off-Road Driving { W ARNING: . Cargo on the load floor piled higher than the seatbacks can be thrown forward during a sudden stop. Y ou or your passengers could be injured. Keep cargo below the top of the seatbacks. . Unsecured cargo on the load floor can be tossed about when driving over rough terrain.
Environmental Concerns Off-road driving can provide wholesome and satisfying recreation. However , it also raises environmental concerns. We recognize these concerns and urge every off-roader to follow these basic rules for protecting the environment: .
Controlling the vehicle is the key to successful off-r oad driving. One of the best ways to control the vehicle is to control the speed. At higher speeds: . Y ou approach things faster and have less time to react. . There is less time to scan the terrain for obstacles.
When driving over bumps, rocks, or other obstacles, the wheels can leave the ground. If this happens, even with one or two wheels, you cannot control the vehicle as well or at all. Because you will be on an unpaved surface, it is especially important to avoid sudden acceleration, sudden turns, or sudden braking.
Driving Uphill Once you decide it is safe to drive up the hill: . Use a low gear and get a firm grip on the steering wheel. . Get a smooth start up the hill and try to maintain speed. Not using more power than needed can avoid spinning the wheels or sliding.
. If the engine has stopped running, you need to restart it. With the brake pedal pressed and the parking brake still applied, shift the transmission to P (Park) and restart the engine. Then, shift to R (Reverse), release the parking brake, and slowly back down the hill as straight as possible in R (Reverse).
Driving Downhill When off-roading takes you downhill, consider: . How steep is the downhill? Will I be able to maintain vehicle control? . What is the surface like? Smooth? Rough? Slippery? Hard-packed dirt? Gravel? . Are there hidden surface obstacles? Ruts? Logs? Boulders? .
Driving Across an Incline An off-road trail will probably go across the incline of a hill. T o decide whether to try to drive across the incline, consider the following: { W ARNING: Driving across an incline that is too steep will make your vehicle roll over .
Stalling on an Incline { W ARNING: Getting out on the downhill (low) side of a vehicle stopped across an incline is dangerous. If the vehicle rolls over , you could be crushed or killed. Always get out on the uphill (high) side of the vehicle and stay well clear of the rollover path.
{ W ARNING: Driving on frozen lakes, ponds, or rivers can be dangerous. Underwater springs, currents under the ice, or sudden thaws can weaken the ice. Y our vehicle could fall through the ice and you and your passengers could drown. Drive your vehicle on safe surfaces only .
After Off-Road Driving Remove any brush or debris that has collected on the underbody , chassis, or under the hood. These accumulations can be a fire hazard. After operation in mud or sand, have the brake linings cleaned and checked. These substances can cause glazing and uneven braking.
Driving in Rain and on Wet Roads Rain and wet roads can reduce vehicle traction and affect your ability to stop and accelerate. Always drive slower in these types of driving conditions and avoid driving through large puddles and deep ‐ standing or flowing water .
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? .
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.
Blizzard Conditions Being stuck in snow can be in a serious situation. Stay with the vehicle unless there is help nearby . If possible, use the Roadside Assistance Program on page 8 ‑ 7 . T o get help and keep everyone in the vehicle safe: . T urn on the Hazard Warning Flashers on page 4 ‑ 3 .
T o save fuel, run the engine for only short periods as needed to warm the vehicle and then shut the engine off and close the window most of the way to save heat. Repeat this until help arrives but only when you feel really uncomfortable from the cold.
gears. Release the accelerator pedal while shifting, and press lightly on the accelerator pedal when the transmission is in gear . Slowly spinning the wheels in the forward and reverse directions causes a rocking motion that could free the vehicle. If that does not get the vehicle out after a few tries, it might need to be towed out.
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-i nstalled options. T wo labels on your vehicle show how much weight it was designed to carry , the T ire and Loading Information label and the Certification /T ire label.
The T ire and Loading Information label also shows the 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 ‑ 54 and Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 6 ‑ 62 .
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/Tire Label A vehicle specific Certification/T ire label is attached to the rear edge of the driver's door. The label shows the size of your vehicle's original tires and the inflation pressures needed to obtain the gross weight capacity of your vehicle.
{ W ARNING: In the case of a sudden stop or collision, things carried in the bed of your truck could shift forward and come into the passenger area, injuring you and others. If you put things in the bed of your truck, you should make sure they are properly secured.
If you put things inside your vehicle — like suitcases, tools, packages, or anything else — they will go as fast as the vehicle goes. If you have to stop or turn quickly , or if there is a crash, they will keep going. { W ARNING: Things you put inside your vehicle can strike and injure people in a sudden stop or turn, or in a crash.

Level Control Automatic Level Control The automatic level control rear suspension is available on light ‐ duty vehicles and comes as a part of the Autoride ® suspension, if equipped. This type of level control is fully automatic and will provide a better leveled riding position as well as better handling under a variety of passenger and loading conditions.
T owing a T railer Do not tow a trailer during break ‐ in. See New Vehicle Break-In on page 3 ‑ 31 for more information. { 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 .
Pulling A T railer 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. A good source for this information can be state or provincial police.
Use the following chart to determine how much the vehicle can weigh, based upon the vehicle model and options. Notice: Using a fifth-wheel or goose-neck hitch device on the vehicle could damage the vehicle. The repairs would not be covered by the vehicle warranty .
Weight of the T railer T ongue The tongue load (A) of any trailer is very important because it is also part of the vehicle weight. The Gross V ehicle Weight (GVW) includes the curb weight of the vehicle, any cargo carried in it, and the people who will be riding in the vehicle as well as trailer tongue weight.
T otal Weight on the V ehicle's Tires Be sure the vehicle's tires are inflated to the inflation pressures found on the Certification label on the drivers door or see Loading the Vehicle on page 5 ‑ 32 for more information. Make sure not to exceed the GVWR limit for the vehicle, or the RGA WR, with the tow vehicle and trailer fully loaded for the trip including the weight of the trailer tongue.
Weight ‐ Distributing Hitch Adjustment A : Body to Ground Distance B : Front of Vehicle When using a weight-distributing hitch, the spring bars should be adjusted so the distance (A) is the same after coupling the trailer to the tow vehicle and adjusting the hitch.
T ow/Haul Mode Pressing this button at the end of the shift lever turns on and off the tow/haul mode. This indicator light on the instrument panel cluster comes on when the tow/haul mode is on. T ow/Haul is a feature that assists when pulling a heavy trailer or a large or heavy load.
T railer Brakes A loaded trailer that weighs more than 2,000 lbs (900 kg) needs to have its own brake system that is adequate for the weight of the trailer . Be sure to read and follow the instructions for the trailer brakes so they are installed, adjusted and maintained properly .
{ W ARNING: Connecting a trailer that is not compatible with the ITBC system may result in reduced or complete loss of trailer braking. There may be an increase in stopping distance or trailer instability which could result in personal injury or damage to the vehicle, trailer , or other property .
T railer Brake Control Panel A. Manual T railer Brake Apply Lever B. T railer Gain Adjustment Buttons The ITBC system has a control panel located on the instrument panel to the left of the steering column. See Instrument Panel on page 1 ‑ 2 . The control panel allows adjustment to the amount of output, referred to as trailer gain, available to the electric trailer brakes and allows manual application the trailer brakes.
All DIC warning and service messages must first be acknowledged by the driver by pressing the odometer trip stem or the DIC V ehicle Information button (if equipped) before the Trailer Brake Display Page can be displayed and T railer Gain can be adjusted.
If the vehicle ’ s service brakes are applied while using the Manual Trailer Brake Apply Lever , the trailer output power will be the greater of the two. The trailer and the vehicle's brake lamps will come on when either vehicle braking or manual trailer brakes are applied.
6. Adjust the Trailer Gain to just below the point of trailer wheel lock-up, indicated by trailer wheel squeal or tire smoke when a trailer wheel locks. T railer wheel lock-up may not occur if towing a heavily loaded trailer . In this case, adjust the T railer Gain to the highest allowable setting for the towing condition.
T o determine if the electrical fault is on the vehicle side or trailer side of the trailer wiring harness connection, do the following: 1. Disconnect the trailer wiring harness from the vehicle. 2. T urn the ignition OFF . 3. W ait ten seconds, then turn the ignition back to RUN.
Driving with a T railer { W ARNING: When towing a trailer , exhaust gases may collect at the rear of the vehicle and enter if the liftgate, trunk/hatch, or rear-most window is open. Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide (CO) which cannot be seen or smelled.
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 heavy braking and sudden turns. Passing More passing distance is needed when towing a trailer . The combination will not accelerate as quickly and is longer so it is necessary to go much farther beyond the passed vehicle before returning to the lane.
Driving On Grades Reduce speed and shift to a lower gear before starting down a long or steep downgrade. If the transmission is not shifted down, the brakes might get hot and no longer work well. V ehicles can tow in D (Drive). Shift the transmission to a lower gear if the transmission shifts too often under heavy loads and/or hilly conditions.
4. Reapply the brake pedal. Then apply the parking brake and shift into P (Park). 5. If the vehicle is four-wheel-drive and has a two-speed transfer case, be sure the transfer case is in a drive gear and not in N (Neutral). 6. Release the brake pedal.

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 Octane Use regular unleaded gasoline with a posted octane rating of 87 or higher . If the octane rating is less than 87, an audible knocking noise, commonly referred to as spark knock, might be heard when driving. If this occurs, use a gasoline rated at 87 octane or higher as soon as possible.
Additives T o provide cleaner air , all gasolines in the United States are now required to contain additives that help prevent engine and fuel system deposits from forming, allowing the emission control system to work properly . In most cases, nothing should have to be added to the fuel.
Fuel E85 (85% Ethanol) This vehicle can use either unleaded gasoline or 85% ethanol fuel (E85). We encourage the use of E85 in vehicles that are designed to use it. The ethanol in E85 is a “ renewable ” fuel, meaning it is made from renewable sources such as corn and other crops.
E85 has less energy per gallon than gasoline, so you will need to refill the fuel tank more often when using E85 than when you are using gasoline. See Filling the T ank on page 6 ‑ 10 . Notice: Some additives are not compatible with E85 fuel and can harm the vehicle's fuel system.
Filling the T ank { W ARNING: Fuel vapor burns violently and a fuel fire can cause bad injuries. T o help avoid injuries to you and others, read and follow all the instructions on the fuel pump island. Turn off the engine when refueling. Do not smoke near fuel or when refueling the vehicle.
{ 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. This spray can happen if the tank is nearly full, and is more likely in hot weather . Open the fuel cap slowly and wait for any hiss noise to stop.
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.

Engine Oil 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.
See Engine Compartment Overview on page 6 ‑ 14 for the location of the engine oil fill cap. Add enough oil to put the level somewhere in the proper operating range. Push the dipstick all the way back in when through. What Kind of Engine Oil to Use Look for three things: .
Engine Oil Additives / Engine Oil Flushes Do not add anything to the oil. The recommended oils with the starburst symbol that meet GM Standard GM6094M are all that is needed for good performance and engine protection. Engine oil system flushes are not recommended and could cause engine damage not covered by the vehicle warranty .
Always reset the engine oil life to 100% after every oil change. It will not reset itself. T o reset the Engine Oil Life System on most vehicles: 1. Display the OIL LIFE REMAINING on the DIC. If the vehicle does not have DIC buttons, the vehicle must be in P (Park) to access this display .
Engine Air Cleaner/Filter See Engine Compartment Overview on page 6 ‑ 14 for the location of the engine air cleaner/filter . Inspect the air cleaner/filter at the Maintenance II intervals and replace it at the first oil change after each 50,000 mile (80 000 km) interval.
3. Remove the engine air cleaner/filter from the housing. Care should be taken to dislodge as little dirt as possible. 4. Clean the engine air cleaner/filter sealing surfaces and the housing. 5. Inspect or replace the engine air cleaner/filter . 6. Reinstall the cover and tighten the screws.
Automatic T ransmission Fluid When to Check and Change Automatic T ransmission Fluid It is usually not necessary to check the transmission fluid level. The only reason for fluid loss is a transmission leak or overheating the transmission. If you suspect a small leak, then use the following checking procedures to check the fluid level.
4. Allow the engine to idle (500 – 800 rpm) for at least one minute. Slowly release the brake pedal. 5. Keep the engine running and press the T rip/Fuel button or trip odometer reset stem until TRANS TEMP (T ransmission T emperature) displays on the Driver Information Center (DIC).
5. If the fluid level is below the COLD check band, add only enough fluid as necessary to bring the level into the COLD band. It does not take much fluid, generally less than one pint (0.5L). Do not overfill. 6. Perform a hot check at the first opportunity after the transmission reaches a normal operating temperature between 160°F to 200°F (71°C to 93°C).
3. Install the dipstick by pushing it back in all the way , wait three seconds, and then pull it back out again. 4. Check both sides of the dipstick and read the lower level. Repeat the check procedure to verify the reading. 5. Safe operating level is within the HOT cross hatch band on the dipstick.
Cooling System The cooling system allows the engine to maintain the correct working temperature. 5.3L Engine shown, 6.0L Engine similar A. Coolant Surge T ank B. Coolant Surge T ank Pressure Cap C.

Light T ruck (L T ‐ Metric) Tire (A) Light T ruck (L T ‐ Metric) Tire : The United States version of a metric tire sizing system. The letters L T as the first two characters in the tire size means a light truck tire engineered to standards set by the U.
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.
Speed Rating : An alphanumeric code assigned to a tire indicating the maximum speed at which a tire can operate. T raction : The friction between the tire and the road surface. The amount of grip provided. T read : The portion of a tire that comes into contact with the road.
If your tires have too much air (over ‐ infla tion), you can get the following: . Unusual wear . Poor handling . Rough ride . Needless damage from road hazards A vehicle specific T ire and Loading Information label is attached to your vehicle. This label shows your vehicle's original equipment tires and the correct inflation pressures for your tires when they are cold.
If you overfill the tire, release air by pushing on the metal stem in the center of the tire valve. Recheck the tire pressure with the tire gage. Be sure to put the valve caps back on the valve stems. They help prevent leaks by keeping out dirt and moisture.
replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly . See Tire Pressure Monitor Operation on page 6 ‑ 65 for additional information. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Industry and Science Canada See Radio Frequency Statement on page 8 ‑ 19 for information regarding Part 15 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Rules and RSS-210/21 1 of Industry and Science Canada.
The low tire pressure warning light may come on in cool weather when the vehicle is first started, and then turn off as you start to drive. This could be an early indicator that the air pressure in the tire(s) are getting low and need to be inflated to the proper pressure.
. One or more TPMS sensors are missing or damaged. The DIC message and the TPMS malfunction light should go off when the TPMS sensors are installed and the sensor matching process is performed successfully . See your dealer/retailer for service. . Replacement tires or wheels do not match your vehicle's original equipment tires or wheels.
Y ou have two minutes to match the first tire/wheel position, and five minutes overall to match all four tire/ wheel positions. If it takes longer than two minutes, to match the first tire and wheel, or more than five minutes to match all four tire and wheel positions the matching process stops and you need to start over .
The purpose of a regular tire rotation is to achieve a uniform wear for all tires on the vehicle. This will ensure that your vehicle continues to perform most like it did when the tires were new . Any time you notice unusual wear , rotate your tires as soon as possible and check wheel alignment.
Make sure the spare tire is stored securely . Push, pull, and then try to rotate or turn the tire. If it moves, tighten the cable. See Storing a Flat or Spare Tire and T ools on page 6 ‑ 92 . 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.
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 Tire 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. Use only radial-ply tires with the wheels on the vehicle. If you must replace your vehicle's tires with those that do not have a TPC Spec number , make sure they are the same size, load range, speed rating, and construction type (radial and bias ‐ belted tires) as your vehicle's original tires.
Uniform Tire Quality Grading Quality grades can be found where applicable on the tire sidewall between tread shoulder and maximum section width. For example: T readwear 200 T raction AA T emperature A The following information relates to the system developed by the United States National Highway T raffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), which grades tires by treadwear , traction, and temperature performance.
T raction – AA, A, B, C The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B, and C. Those grades represent the tire's ability to stop on wet pavement as measured under controlled conditions on specified government test surfaces of asphalt and concrete.
Y our dealer/retailer will know the kind of wheel you need. 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 T ire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) sensors, replace them only with new GM original equipment parts.
Tire Chains { W ARNING: If your vehicle has P265/65R18 or P275/55R20 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.
If a Tire Goes Flat It is unusual for a tire to blowout while you are driving, especially if you maintain your vehicle's tires properly . If air goes out of a tire, it is much more likely to leak out slowly . But if you should ever have a blowout, here are a few tips about what to expect and what to do: If a front tire fails, the flat tire creates a drag that pulls the vehicle toward that side.
Changing a Flat Tire If a tire goes flat, avoid further tire and wheel damage by driving slowly to a level place. Turn on the hazard warning flashers. See Hazard Warning Flashers on page 4 ‑ 3 . { W ARNING: Changing a tire can be dangerous. The vehicle can slip off the jack and roll over or fall on you or other people.

5. Remove all the wheel nuts. 6. T ake off the flat tire. { W ARNING: Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on the parts to which it is fastened, can make wheel nuts become loose after time. The wheel could come off and cause an accident. When changing a wheel, remove any rust or dirt from places where the wheel attaches to the vehicle.
{ W ARNING: Never use oil or grease on bolts or nuts because the nuts might come loose. The vehicle's wheel could fall off, causing a crash. 9. Put the wheel nuts back on with the rounded end of the nuts toward the wheel after mounting the spare tire.
When you reinstall the full-size wheel and tire, you must also reinstall the either the center cap or the bolt-on hub cap, depending on what your vehicle has. . If you are reinstalling a center cap, line up the tab on the center cap with the slot on the wheel.
3. Loosen the cable by turning the wrench counterclockwise three or four turns. 4. Repeat this procedure at least two times. If the spare tire lowers to the ground, continue with Step 5 of Removing the Spare Tire and T ools on page 6 ‑ 79 . 5. If the spare does not lower , turn the wrench counterclockwise until approximately 6 inches (15 cm) of cable is exposed.
9. Position the center lift point of the jack under the center of the spare tire. 10. T urn the wrench clockwise to raise the jack until it lifts the end fitting. 1 1. Continue raising the jack until the spare tire stops moving upward and is held firmly in place.
