cools outside air and directs it through the upper air
vents.
The air conditioner compressor operates in
MAX, NC,
BI-LEVEL, BLEND and DEFROST when the outside
temperature
is above freezing. When the air conditioner
is on, you may sometimes notice slight changes in your
vehicle’s engine speed and power. This is normal,
because the system is designed to cycle the compressor
on and
off to keep the desired cooling and help fuel
economy.
Cooling
The air conditioner works best if you keep your
windows closed. On very hot days, open the windows
just long enough for the hot air to escape.

(Option: LT1 VS Engine)
Your vehicle may have a traction control system called
ASR that limits wheel spin. This is especially useful in
slippery road conditions. The system operates only if it
senses that one or both of the rear wheels are spinning or
beginning to lose traction.
When this happens, the system works the rear brakes
and reduces engine power (by closing the throttle and
managing engine spark)
to limit wheel spin.
The
LOW TRAC light will come on when your ASR
system is limiting wheel spin, See “Low Traction Light”
in the Index. You may feel the system working, or you
may notice some noise, but this is normal.
The
ASR system may operate on dry roads under some
conditions, and you may notice a reduction
in
acceleration when this happens. This is normal and
doesn’t mean there’s a problem with your vehicle.
Examples of these conditions include
a hard acceleration
in a turn, or an abrupt upshift or downshift. Also, when
the compact spare tire
is on the rear axle, the ASR
system will cycle and limit acceleration for about the
first
15 seconds of driving after each engine start.
If your vehicle is in cruise control when the ASR system
begins to
limit wheel spin, the cruise control will automatically
disengage. When road conditions allow
you to safely use
it again, you may re-engage the cruise
control. (See “Cruise Control”
in the Index.)
ASR
OFF
When the system is on,
the ASR OFF warning
light will come on to
let you know
if there’s
a problem with your
ASR system. See
“ASR System Warning
Light’’
in the Index.
When
this warning light is on, the system will not limit
wheel spin. Adjust your driving accordingly.
The
ASR system automatically comes on whenever you
start your vehicle.
To limit wheel spin, especially in slippery road
conditions,
you should always leave the system on. But
you can
turn the ASR system off if you ever need to.
(You should
turn the system off if your vehicle ever gets
stuck
in sand, mud, ice or snow. See “Rocking Your
Vehicle”
in the Index.)
To turn the system off, press the button
on the console
near the cigarette lighter.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The ASR OFF warning light will come on and stay on.
If the ASR system is limiting wheel spin when you
press the button, the system won’t turn
off right away.
It will wait until there’s
no longer a current need to limit
wheel spin.
You can turn the system
back on at any time by
pressing the button again. The
ASR OFF warning
light should go off.
If your car is equipped with P245bOZR16 tires, the
ASR system will automatically turn off at speeds above
108 mph (174 Mh). (The ASR OFF warning light
will not come
on.) When the vehicle speed drops below
103 mph (166 kmh) the system will automatically come
on again.
Braking in Emergencies
Use your anti-lock braking system when you need to.
With anti-lock, you can steer and brake at the same
time. In many emergencies, steering can help you more
than even the very best braking.
Steering
Power Steering
If you lose power steering assist because the engine
stops or
the system is not functioning, you can steer but
it will take much more effort.

Do this so your trailer won’t strike soft

Turn Signals When Towing a Trailer
When you tow a trailer, your vehicle has to have a
different turn signal flasher and extra wiring. The green
arrows on your instrument panel will flash whenever
you signal a turn or lane change. Properly hooked up,
the trailer lamps will also flash, telling other drivers

so much that
they would get hot and no longer work well.
On a long uphill grade, shift down and reduce your
speed to around
45 mph (70 km/h) to reduce the
possibility
of engine and transmission overheating.
If you are towing a trailer and you have an automatic
transmission with Overdrive, you may prefer to drive in
DRIVE (D) instead of Overdrive (or, as you need to, a
lower gear). Or, if you have a manual transmission with
FIFTH or SIXTH gear. It is better not to use FIFTH or
SIXTH gear. Just drive in FOURTH gear (FIFTH gear
if
you have a six-speed manual transmission) (or, as you
need to, a lower gear).
